I might be if you’re looking to get rid of it haha Gotta say that I’m not the biggest fan of the way the artwork turned out. I can see it being Herc...but the face feels off to me and I can’t say exactly what or why. http://instagram.com/p/CQ8v32mM60i |

Any UK chaps have place an order? No, that display on here from him a couple of weeks ago poisoned the whole thing for me. Not that it matters, the line is clearly already a great success so he doesn't need the extra support, and I really do continue to wish him the best with it. |

On the other side the prototypes look really good. If it helps, the shipping costs equals the amount my US buddy is charging for forwarding the figures to me. Both is USPS priority and for 2 full sets roughly 80$. |

I ordered a full set to the UK. Thought shipping was reasonable but that obviously excludes any import taxes that might come my way.

Must say that is one cool looking prototype! Really think it captures the sketch, would be interesting to see this painted. |

Jeff looks great. I'm kinda tempted to grab series 1 now but it's a hell of a long wait and without knowing what the import fee will be I'm not sure it's worth it for figures that are already priced extremely high.

On the whole JJ is great but I don’t like the clothesline action.
I get they’re making it more aesthetically pleasing from a general point of view hiding the pin and joint but to me that’s where it loses that hasbro edge

I mean, it’s cool but again without the Hasbro style shine, it’s going to stick out in a collection.

I violated my own darn rule by bringing price into the discussion. Please don’t let this derail this thread. Moving back on topic: I’m reorganizing my Hasbro and Retro collection right now. It takes up a massive amount of room and it is hard to make space with some of these new figures in mind. Everything is split up kind of by era. I use 9 rings and some stands but it still looks crowded in some areas! I’m so glad I didn’t use anything more “permanent” to try and get these to stay in place! Having Bundy and Dino will help though as my top ring features figures from an earlier era and is a bit more sparse. Guys like JYD and Sheik won’t seem so lonely now lol. Post pictures if you have any. I don’t have the time to take better photos (nor is this my permanent setup but here is the bulk of it: ![]() [/img] Some lights went out on the left side so some of that is darker. Not much I could do without meticulously taking things apart to replace the batteries. |

Tough choice on that Jarrett. It truly looks amazing, but we won't see it painted before buying, it'll cost 50 shipped, and then the incident from a few weeks ago...

Thank you! And negative; I currently live in the Midwestern part of the U.S. I absolutely have loved the time I’ve spent in the U.K. though!

He’s certainly doing a fine job of hunting down the missing pieces from the Hasbro era.

So this should be cool, a lot of time spent signing folks. With series one being due the end of the year I wonder when series 2 and 3 make it out. |
