Okay, that's just too cool. Who's picking these up for us at NYCC? I need one! :clap:
I wonder what it would be like to be a lonely, muck-encrusted monster? Probably be an improvement.

Me either, but it's nice to finally have an action figure that is not a goat.

It's cool to have figures, but I'm not digging it. Good on VEI, though to cut another licensing deal.

I'll get one too but I'm not impressed, I don't see a lot of action coming out of this figure.

Oh well at least I won't be tempted to open it.

Now if it was something more like this I would be really excited-

unfortunately i believe the action figure scene is somewhat dried up right now. g.i. joe went heavy on the cutesy side also. my guess is the adult collector is looking for something fun to throw on the work desk. eh who know.

Yes being a fan of anything is expensive nowadays, but I am glad they have figures, just got the rpg book and it is sweet.

If you do all 30 reviews and post them to all 3 Amazon sites to become fully qualified, you will have the option to purchase one of these. Sooooo, sounds to me like some reviews might be coming our way :D

Meh, I would rather see them focus on a cool action figure than things like this.
