    Exactly what I'd laike to see as well. I hope it's not smaller than the Boogie as someone mentioned. Having said that, my interest kinda went from WOW to being on the fence. After seeing it painted up and a glimpse of the price I seem to be getting turned off more and more. :|

    That's funny, I was able to snag the other 8. I was going to flip them, but since this is Skullbrain and we're a tight community. I'll trade them off for 2 headed Bemon, HP Marine Kongs, or CKA gorillas.

    I like the header card. It has a Mattel Mad Scientist feel to it.

    Ordered one of the non-painted, super excited about this guy. I think he's fun in a cure/general mills/ goofy figure. He's a nice variety from the Boogie Men.

    I can't figure out if that's a compliment or not?

    I think it's cool. I think the "evil and dark muwahahaha" shit get's silly and dumb and this goofier figure works really well. It's got charm that a lot of early SB and "neo-kaiju" type figures had early on .

    I know what you mean. The sinister and serious stuff gets old sometimes. I think I'm in some kind of transitional phase or something cause this sculpt runs cold and later on when I look at it again it seems hot. Izzat weird?

    That's collecting if you ask me, there are some things I've seen I hated, and then I either saw it in person or saw a different picture of it and loved it. PopSoda is the first example that comes to mind.

    I wasn't into this figure at all when I first saw it online, but once I handled it in person it's definitely become one of favorite new sculpts. Just awesome detail and tons of character with loads of articulation too. I'm probably going to wait for a really mind-blowing version before I bite the bullet on one, but that unpainted red really has it's appeal..

    It's not my thing (nor was the Boogie) but I can appreciate both of them. As with the Boogie, Cure seems to be very detail-oriented.

    I'm curious what Bounty Hunter fans think? I think it would look great in with a BH collection.
