I agree without a doubt the Super Puncher is the king of the pocket stuff! The head change is a simple gimmick but it is such a great design! I love mine!

 Re: Pocket Helper
Pocket THIS!  And I don't know, I don't consider the Mini Thrashman as a Pocket as he's not stumpy enough.

All I remember is there being a teaser pic for the whole new pocket line right before SDCC 07 and that Thrashman silhouette was there. I'm pretty sure it's meant to be part of the line regardless of what we consider it.

 Re: Pocket Helper
I was under the impression that the thrashman and smoking corps were originally made as pendants before there was a pocket kaiju line. They might be considered part of the same line now though since they fit in.

I dunno what anything is, I'm just saying it SEEMS to me that it's officially part of the line, but perhaps not. If I collected them, I'd have to have it to be "complete" but I don't (though I want the pocket smoguns pretty hard.) ALSO: There were pocket sculpts of the Hedorans in Toy Punks right? Just protos or WIP pieces. But maaaaan I'd need em' if they hit.

Believe he was originally a pendant but someone ripped the top tab off. Also someone stuffed a plastic skeleton inside and filled it with tinsel.  And yea! There was a cool little Pocket Hedo in TP. Can't wait for them to be released.

Agreed, I keep waiting and waiting... but I've only seem one come by, an I couldn't justify it's price Since some of these seem to have been SDCC releases, does anybody mind disclosing what the original retail price of them has been at the conventions? Since I dont know their "original price" I have no idea of their inflation rate when I do see them for sale

But I'm glad to see Gargamel expand their pocket line. +1

 Re: Pocket Helper
The only two pocket guys I've ever owned are the green Stomp and S7FC orange keychain Stomp. They're some of my favorites. If I could find another for cheap (it'd probably have to be the SDCC green one), I'd love to have a custom painted one.

 Re: Pocket Helper
While we're sort of off the topic of Pocket Helper specifically, are the production numbers for the Pocket releases public knowledge? Only one I have any idea on is the Super Puncher, which I was told is about 50 pieces. I figure the Pocket Helper would be an easy one to track production of, due to it only being in 09 LB's - but I don't know how man of those there are either @_@
