    The upcoming Mer-Man figure looks nice... is that a removeable 'head' ?

    Yeah. He comes with an alt head that is more like the classic card back.

    The question burning in my mind is: How the hell did Cobra Commander get to Eternia?! And why is he flying the Wind Raider?

    Dug out these old mini comics that came with the OG figures. Ah, memories. You can tell I read some of these a few times.

    Did anybody else end up getting Mer-Man? I think he's the best of the bunch, thus far.

    So does anyone here collect these?

    I love the classics line. I subbed last year and am this year as well. But we are in danger of not having enough people sub for it to go through next year. It's the final year and will finish out the original line. So please sub if you've got any extra money lying around. I figured it couldn't hurt to post this here. We need ninjor, multibot and squeezze to get made!

    I don't have the cash for that kind of investment, but I do like the idea of the reissues line. Sorry to hear it is coming to a close. Funny enough, I just picked up a Squeezze (along with a He-man and Battlecat, all sans accessories mind you) in a charity shop last week.

    Nice purchases ultrakaiju! Never had squeezze as a kid but loved him.

    That is actually one of the reasons the line might end. It just got too expensive for some and tried to be too much to too many different people. The window is closed now though. Now we wait.
