Have to say they did a great job on Crystal Ball.  Only nitpick I have is his facial expression.  Looks a little goofy/off, to me, but not so much as to affect the overall quality of the figure.

He's the only one I ordered. I'm hoping his head looks better in hand, looks kinda cartoony to me and I'd like to see the bottom right leg changed to match the bottom left, but yeah, he turned out pretty good.

I love the fact they're using the UK name for Skidmark.
Didn't realize that he had a different code name for the UK release until I researched a little. There's a few more figures that had different code names as well. Funny how the US fans totally ignore this detail. So that makes two international releases this FSS then.

Not overly impressed. Stalker looks fine but not enough to sway me into dropping $600. wouldn't have minded getting Tomax and Crystal Ball though.

Agree with your comments on CC.

Looks like there will be a new head for CB but not a new vest. I can only guess it'll either be POC Zartan hoody or FSS frostbite vest. Maybe Snow Serpent fur? *Edit* had it pointed out that the Gnaw vest would be the likely candidate>

Lots of comments on the dusty paint and build on the club site.

Any Canuckle Heads going to sign up for a sub? Looks like it'll be around $600 Can for a single sub. The first two previews are up. Kinda lackluster to me.

I'm trying to collect modern versions of 82-89 so I had to get the BF2000 members, even Dee Jay. They look pretty good in hand and they save me some custom work. Also scored a carded backstop, so I'll keep my custom for loose display. Didn't really care for the cobra figures this year.

These are really nice, got the ones that were available last week. Sure hope the kick starter for the reprint of volume 1 goes through.

The links don't work. Is there somewhere a person can look these up?
