Not a bad idea mike. I don't know if I'll have room for MOC in the new house, but that's certainly something to consider.

Better detailed pics

As for Mike's idea, not bad.  But I am only getting one set and hence rather keep them sealed for the short term.

Wow, in those pics, the Stormy crotch looks normal, and the Cobra pic looks completely stupid. I'm going to have to reserve judgement until I see them IRL.

But that Baroness looks like all the jokes are true... :lol:

One of the strangest treads I've noticed with these figures is just how dependent they are on a good pose to look cool. As soon as an arm is facing a strange direction or the upper torso is tilted, they lose all cool value to me. I hope it won't be hard to make them look cool on a shelf.

When it looks like the overseas market has gotten their hands on some of the new figures

And pics of the Scarlett figure are posted here

I can't complain about this figure.  Nice poses as well.

Cool.
Thanks for the link Pete.
The guy paid $60... For about the same he could buy both 5 packs. They'll be out in a month or so, man are people impatient.

But to dick wave and say you got it first, you can't put a price on that...or maybe 60 bucks  :lol: 

I just don't get why people are in a huge hurry.  If they are already making it to Sinapore, that means the figures will be released very soon based on past events.

Wondering how the new Scarlett figure is constructed and how she scales up...

I'm more impressed than I expected to be.

But it'll be the compatability of the parts that sells it or kills it for customizers. Head swaps and repaints are fine, but if that's all you can do because of incompatable sizing, it'll get played out pretty fast.

Hidden future figures for single packs

Looks like Beachhead, Lady Jaye, Buzzer, Serpentor, Cobra Solider, with Firefly, Satan, Stalker, Shipwreck and Zartan on the bottom
