It's OK.

I like the headsculpt, not too sold on the green though.  Needs more brown IMO.  I dont know why but they seem to have a lot of figures that have odd color distribution on their figures.  Like top half has one color theme and the bottom has another, it makes it so imbalanced.

I would have liked to have seen him fatter with the custom green quilt jacket.

It's okay, not bad, but not 100% either.

That all being said, I find sometimes figures that seem just OK in hand, actually look better in a dio setting.  In other words, you may not love Horror Show on a standalone basis, but you lose that when you put him on a shelf with 20 other figs.....all sort of blends in.

True. I'd love to see a group shot.

Horror Show...before he got fat.

The figure is ok.

I think the one thing the Clu did well was the head sculpts.  Think there were 7 new ones and they were all excellent.  Last year, we had 1 or 2, right?  Claymore and DeAco (or was he a repaint).  So, that's the upside, I suppose.

[NeoDragonKnight]

Claymore was a new sculpt, Deaco was a repaint of Snake Eyes.  The only other semi new head was Spartas I believe, as it was a retooled head from pre-25th O-ring cover girl.

[Emags]

Yup, you are right.  I looked it up.  Sparta was a DTC Cover Girl head from 2006.  Funny, did not realize anything was used from pre 2007.  Truth be told, it is a pretty good head.  I'm looking forward to getting a Cover Girl from the FSS.  Guessing that will be the same head sculpt too.

[Emags]

Saw something on another site that the pre - orders should go live tomorrow.  Granted, don't hold your breathe, but we will see.  I'm ordering the non attendee edition, which should go live a few days after that.

Those guys can't catch a break.

Been a tough year for the Club.  The FSS issue was the worst.  Collectors were talking about it when the reveals were going on in the Fall and it was generating a lot of buzz.  Then the credit card issue happened and it lost all momentum.  I'm sure people will still sign up, but I imagine less so. 

They've also been having issues with getting the magazine out......when it rains it pours.

[Emags]

The sign up is still not up and apparently will not be until tomorrow, at the earliest per the Club.  They really are not putting their best foot forward with this. 

The convention is fastly approaching and people can not buy packages yet.  I'm guessing a number of people have not booked their travel yet b/c they don't know what they are getting.  That seems reasonable.  At some point, airfare and hotels start getting more expensive and people will forego the trip and that's too bad, really.
