I signed up to the club for the Foreign Adventurer, and I'm glad I did.
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.
