    Oh man, thats a lot of money to spend if you wanna complete all of them. As much as I like all of these, I'd settle just for one of each version to be honest. I prefer the SB Skull Head, Cure Mad Head, A.dore Skull Head.

    hiddy sure has modified his paint apps in the past 2 or 3 recent releases as an excuse to make sure his new releases sell through in the recession. one sculpt, same vinyl, 2 or 3 versions on the same run size sure gives you no time to think about buying anymore. it kindda sucks.

    I hear ya on the release timings . . . a little breathing space between 'em wouldn't go amiss!

    I can't recall specifics, but I'm sure it used to be more like 2-3 releases a month . . . . getting hit with a half dozen or so within a couple of days (Dragon East/Dragon West & all these Mad Brains) is kinda harsh.

    Seriously, I thought it was a bit much with 2 separate shop blind bag releases...I wonder how many versions are actually included in all these releases?
    At least 6, but the s-b site shows the skull head with different colored hands, and maybe the plush inserts are actually different too, so it would appear that there are even more!

    I think the cure ones still look the best on their own, but they will all look nice together for sure

    It looks like Cure used a image of the elephant man for the header card.

    I was under the assumption that they do not, and I did ask in my email, but all they said was that they were sold out :lol:

    I asked if they took international orders, or if they were going to distribute some of the blind bags to US retailers like Lulubell. Only response I got was that it was sold out. :? Haha

    I'd take it they're sold out! :lol:

    I ended up biting the bullet and snagged 'em!. Just interested though . . . are you guys gonna display 'em bagged or sans bag?

    btw.... it was horribly hard getting the bag off
    putting it back on was pretty simple once i found out how it came off.
