Hey, as a Valiant n00b, would anyone mind telling me exactly what all this penguin business is all about?

I saw a photo of a blue-suited Shadowman penguin and just thought 'eh?'

It's the combination of the penguin interest raised by the movie Marche of the Penguins, the claim in Valiant comics that Solar had toasted all the penguins and Sean Chen's willingness to test sculpting. There is a whole series with Shadowman, Magnus, Solar etc. Also some non-Valiant ones. They are limited to the number each mold could produce and also individually hand painted, so they are individually numbered. A few extra limited versions were made with additonal sculpting.

They are simply very cool.
