I dunno what everyone's complaining about...
I think elasticated Chris Jericho dressed up as Steve Austin floating through the third dimension to fight crime looks great.
That's what he was going for...
Right?

Disappointed in the Mike Awesome. Was really looking forward to him.

For those who mentioned it: Major Pod gave it a Major thumbs up. Seemed pretty dismissive of the long arms and the Jericho-like face.

I love Zombies but I do wish he would shorten the arms. D-Freedom and the pod seemed to suggest Hasbros would be the same if you were able to elongate the poses they were in. I get what they mean but these Zombies are even longer, unnecessary.

I get what they mean but these Zombies are even longer, unnecessary. Exactly this. The “Hasbros did it too” is not a valid defense here. They didn’t do it to this extreme (no pun intended). The exaggerated features Hasbro did were almost always done in a stylized way that were far more balanced than what we have been seeing since H&F debuted. I genuinely wonder how long is too long for them to actually call him out on it? Do they need to be dragging their knuckles before they actually say something using the same tone saved to scold Mitch or Bill? |

And if you go back and look at the figures in the Hasbro line, very few of the figures had arms that reached the knees. |

I think Zombie has a reputation for being a bit snappy when anyone offers any form of criticism and a bit stubborn, however constructive it is but I wish he’d realise this kind of thing is only because we want the product to be as good as it can be, we want to buy the stuff he’s making, he needs to be open to change. Overall his stuff is by far the best retro on the market and for me closest to Hasbro (again, on the whole) and I love Ron doing the designing, I just really wish he would make the change on the arm length. |

1st Class = 1st Class! Standard = Standard and is like $40 cheaper than the $60 you qoute for priorty EDIT: I also know there is a Standard shipping option because with S1 pre-order I messaged someone who messaged Josh who then unlocked the cheaper standard option instantly! So it is not only there, he chooses not to use it! However, if he keeps qouting boat timelines and charging 1st Class I'm gonna mention it on every page until it's resolved. According to their website there is no „standard“ at USPS. Who would want to call a service „standard“ anyway. www.usps.com/international/mail-shipping-services.htmHonestly, it is getting ridiculous. His international shipping options however are totally fine. Especially when compared to others. If you want to see poor international shipping service don’t look any further than RSC. They successfully destroyed every joy I had ordering from them with their outrageous rates and I desperately hope that they will wake up one day and realize that there is a customer base overseas aswell that they are currently losing to the evil toy store that shall not be named. I'm not talking about USPS, Ringside or your opinions! I just explained Standard shipping has been done before!! Facts!!! As an international customer yourself, the only "ridiculous" thing is you saying things are fine and shutting down actual conversation that could lead to change. |

OK, enough about international shipping! Yes it's expensive, ever since I started collecting in 1997! Didn't change in nearly 27 years, neither can you.

^^^ Yup. Exciting times. I do like figures coming out every few months or when they are available but I don’t want myself or others having to pay those high, frequent, and wasteful shipping charges. Here is the finished product. I like the look and am 1000% buying it…just wish it had sunglasses (unless he does and I just can’t see them): http://instagram.com/p/CRWfqyYscpA http://instagram.com/p/C1pMF84Oohl |

They show glasses in the top middle of sketch but I don't see any in the carding/bubble. Figure looks awesome and captures everything about him.

Yeah, it's cool OMG is coming, but I'd of preferred all of S3 at once so I don't have to pay S&H multiple times.
