Imagine buying three of these. This the blandest, uninspiring, cheapest looking RSC exc yet, as far as I'm concerned. They usually put some effort into the packaging - but not this time. Also, now you've swapped heads, I would take the extra heads out of the packages... because not only do they look terrible to begin with - the likenesses are really poor - it's silly having two floating heads beside each figure.

This one is a bit of a miss for me. The idea is cool, but doesn’t do much for an MOC collector like myself. Mostly I was a little disappointed that Edge still doesn’t really look like Edge. With the UE and WM22 figs coming in the future it really helps me be patient with this set. If the price drops in the future or there’s a lull in the figs I’m buying (which doesn’t seem likely any time soon) then I may pull the trigger on picking it up.

Got my first in hand today. Two more on the way, and honestly might pick up another to keep MOC and try and get signed by all three guys.

I'll definitely be swapping Edge's head to an older one. Looks like he had wind burn on his lips. Wish they'd retire that sculpt, it's not good.
Might see if i can track down another RA 35 Edge in good condition & use that head

Looks pretty awesome MOC. I don't really plan on picking this one up but who knows when Black Friday/Cyber Monday comes around. I respect your decision but they have a whole patron group that I’m in and only saying everything they sell or are a part of now is selling like crazy and due to them being released who know how many order rsc are really getting in. Might want to just rethink and order one. Thanks for the look out but I wouldn't lose sleep if I didn't have this one. Happy for those who's been waiting on Edge Heads.

I guess him buying 30 makes up for me not buying any.

I wasn't a fan of this when it was announced and seeing the final product this might be the worst RSC exclusive ever.

This one is a better idea to me than it was executed. To me this is one of the worst Edge scans they’ve done (I swear it’s Ortons face with long hair), the Ryder is AWFUL and even though the Hawkins is fine, I’d never buy a figure where I basically need 3 of with a bunch of extra leftover heads.

U have 2 leftover Heads of Edge and those are bad TBH. If they have given us a new Scan then we would have an option to switch it over to edges earlier releases. Moreover Ryder looks like Shannon Moore. They Got the concept but executed poorly. Ryder should not have beanie cap to disguise as edge.

I may get this, to use the Hawkins and Ryder head on Bo Dalls or other generic looking bodies as jobbers for my fig fed, since neither head really looks like them at all to me.

Those buying 3 of the same figure = Mattel’s target audience I didn’t see what the big deal with buying 3 of the same figure

I wish this had a material jacket but still a solid exclusive.

I didnt really want this so much. I already have the first RSC Edge, and the likenesses of both Hawkins and Ryder are inferior to the Elites I have of each. But its on its way. Maybe it'll grow on me once I have it in-hand.

So having 3 in hand, I'm a pretty big fan. I like the concept of the interchangeable, and I think it was executed as well as that could be. I get that it's not for everyone (particularly those who own Elite Edges and/or have no affinity for Hawkins and Ryder) but not every figure is for every collector.

I like this figure .. wish the jacket could have been made with better material since it's an exclusive and all, but overall, i believe the Edge face scan is great .. i could care less about the other 2 lol, i bought this strictly for Edge lol ..
