So how does it work actually? I just sign up on the website and I'll eventualy receive that figure?

Awful figure and awful armor that restricts movement too severely. I could not be less impressed.
Good thing I'm not a member. ;-)

I could care less for Nullifier because he is as we say in french: NUL!!
For those who are members, when in the year do the membership figures ship?

Quote from: ""Pete The Greek""
Starts shipping in May....I never got my free 3 3/4 figure last year. :evil:
Did you try to contact them on that? I know I'd be pretty mad if they screwed me on the figure, especially since it costs us more for a membership since we're not in the U.S.

My opinion of this figure has changed drastically.

It's not like they don't know that they are going to give a way a free figure every year and since these figures use the newer molds it's not like they have to play "find the mold" like they do with the ARAH figures.
Still, I am looking forward to getting the 12' guy. I'll just have to place an order for the Nullifier later when they become available at the store.

The thing that sold me was the accessory set--the leather jacket really makes the figure. I think the choice of head-sculpt is really inspired too, the foreign sculpt being the one vintage causcasian sculpt that never say flocking.
I chatted with Club rep Lanny Lathem who had a major hand in the design of both items, and he told me that the delays in getting items back from where they are prepped is why they are shown so late.
The club really does want to put out good product, but its limited by the direct consumer base of the members.
Items like the exclusive 40th sets it carries need more sales ( at least a few hundred more) to warrant development of the next series of sets.
The old expression of "buy lots and buy often" was never more true here.
There's room for contribution too.......things like a AGP for the Nullifier could be release in a new paint scheme, if enough voices are heard. Something like a "iron grey" with red or other coloured engines could be possible. They have access to the mold from the past convention premium.
The Club asks for YOUR input--so let them know.
BTW, the Foreign Adventurer is likely the FIRST of additional Adventurers possible--there's been ideas bandied back and forth and Lanny, Brian et al are receptive to your ideas too.

Funny thing is, there was an invoice in the box...as if it was the second one I received before the actual free one.... Weird huh?
The figure is really cool. You won't be disapointed :thumbsup:
