Dynamite looks pretty good, just wish his hands were turned out more like the drawing

Chella -- pulling ahead of everyone in the Retro game. Super impressed with this one! My favourite yet, can’t wait till it ships and I have it in hand! |

Really impressed with how this one has turned out especially the accessories. Chella have knocked it out of the park with this one too . Hopefully will be in hand very soon .

For me chella are deffo the top of the third party / indie retro producers. If I was to give one critique, it would be they have done sterling work such as this one, great work and a couple of misses. We need to consistency to move from great to sterling more often but at least they actually have a product out there

My favorite part about Dynamite is they sculpted the wrists bands, but didn't paint the detail just like the Davey Boy hasbro. Great little homage to original. The faux/emulated sparkle on the cape came out way better than I initially thought it would. There's tons of loose pics on their website below. www.chellatoys.net/product-page/official-dynamite-kid-action-figure |

JB have them in stock now so hopefully Chella aint to far behind. I reckon it’s due any day now . I would assume by next week just before the Giant Haystacks pre order . Yeah I hope so, I actually had my gran phone me this morning and say I had parcels at hers and there was tht little slight bit of hope in my mind that Dynamite would be here. But, not to be. Hopefully early next week and then as you say start the other Giant Haystacks pre order. |

I really dislike Zombie, but his luckiest day was signing Danhausen. Look at this -- almost 8K views on this one video alone...

I am beyond excited for this figure even if it isn’t perfect.
Good job with this signing ZST! I hope we get a few more!

Imo chella doing Adam Bomb makes sense because his hasbro is up there in price, especially for a nice one or carded. Andre not as hard to get Andre sold listings £15-£30 loose Adam Bomb sold listings £85-£110 loose |

I collect Andre the Giant items. The Hasbro Andre was my white whale which helped me become a collector. When I was a 5 year old kid, I saw it in stores once and begged my mom for it. We couldn’t afford it at that time and I was devastated. Never again did I see it. Through out the years, she has gotten me Andre items here and there to try and make up for it lol. It took me roughly 22 years before I got my hands on one. Now I have amassed a considerable Andre collection. T is most of it but there are a number of pieces that were not on display or have since been added: http://instagram.com/p/CKkAFxvMddX |

That’s a cool collection, and it all started after the hunt for that figure. |

Thank you. And you’re not wrong in your viewpoint or skepticism over my enthusiasm. This is a very personal and unique set of circumstances. I think that there is a big Andre following still but it isn’t MASSIVE. I’m excited to have Avery different figure from the Hasbro one we all know and love. Hopefully it pairs well with the Haku from Chella.

Having Andre in dark blue/sideburns to go with Chella's King Haku will be pretty awesome.
