Confirmed. It’s 1 of 1250. Fantastic figures. Already own one and it's easily my favorite to date.

I never thought I’d say this but I think this level of detail is a bit unnecessary. Don’t get me wrong those pads are a work of art but is it a bit overkill?? Also, so much time and effort has gone into the pads that the painted on higher pants kind of ruins it.

I said before how I wish they just had a more inaccurate lower waistline on their pants rather than the lazy looking way they painted the torso black. The first pic without that painted on looks 100% better.

The shoulder pad details look great but the painted torso is like putting a bumper sticker on a Bentley.

We are now in “Mid-November”. Any word on CC or BBB, they were expected “late September-early October” (after originally being expected late summer at the time ZST took the orders)
IMO, ZST controls all delays by doing bulk shipping to save money. I have NO problem with that, every company and person in the world would do the same thing…just be honest about it.
*ZST and Sal are literally Brennan and Dale but they are still in the stand-off stage. The MWFP needs to get them together for activities.

He will have more available for Black Friday. Slick is not the only one coming for black Friday. I caught that he said prior to this event. He also really hyped Black Friday on Sam Roberts’ show. I’m a little bit worried though as he is already running behind schedule so it makes me wonder what else he will have in hand by then. My guess would be that Kevin Sullivan or Dan hausen that have already been shown.

releasing the figures that he advertised as being available long before now would be a better surprise. actually having new figures in hand and shipping them, but that won't happen

Repaints are fine but most don’t excite me. Or it gives me reasons to not buy the first version of something. That isn’t just a ZST thing either. Every company is doing the double dip these days (releasing a less popular look followed by a something in higher demand). It is teaching me patience though.

Also, so much time and effort has gone into the pads that the painted on higher pants kind of ruins it. I think what I liked about Hasbro were the molded details more than the painted details. The pads are cool and I appreciate when that much care is put into something but for my taste it doesn’t have the desired effect that I like in my collection. But I can’t say I have some hard and fast rule about any of that either. Sorry for posting yet another painting video but I feel like Hasbro never would have given the color changing paint to Candido but it would really pop in a collection both then and now. Had I been a bigger fan of his character or had Zombie Josh not said a Skip was likely on the way, I probably would have bought this. http://instagram.com/p/DCb5FlMRU6x

One of the main reasons for starting collecting ZST was the opportunity to complete the orange card series so I really hope we hear some news on MOM soon. I know we’ll have to wait on Doink, Lex and Diesel.

They look amazing but yeah the paint on the stomach is just brutal. its just unnecessary. Hopefully when he does WWF LOD they don't do that.

Is it possible CC, BBB and CMP arrived with the /800 Cardona, but ZST is waiting for Black Friday revenue to ship those to customers? Cardona was able to hold ZST accountable and get his figure shipped.
ZST collects shipping costs at the time of preorder.
