I think that is paced pretty well, there have just been a ton of great SB releases lateley. Sorry if you think there have been too many, I personally wish there were more!
I think it's all just timming. With Franks big sale I know I spent a lot of unexpected money. And with several people unloading parts of collections it's been nuts.
I'm glad to see it all and this is actually the cheapest way to get SB. $50 bucks? Doesn't get cheaper than that....

I concur that this colourway will go very will with the "Kinkotsuman" Skull Brain. Too bad this GF doesn't have heroic red scarves.
hmmmm... maybe I can fashion some little red neckerchiefs? ^_^
Very nice design and affordable, too! At least, compared to some of the other stuff around...
Looking forward to more!

Once again, Secret Base let the cat out of the bag. Head on over there to see the subscriber version.

And it is sooooo much nicer. I haven't been feeling the white day GF. Seemed to be missing something to me. The subscriber version jumps out for sure.
Still not sure about the white on either though.

I think the pink touches on the sub version look great. The green is much better than red also.

They figures are a set - the valentine's day (pink, red and black with the broken heart) and the white day (white, pink and red with the broken heart on the arm). White vinyl for white day. They look great in person, a set of positive and negative colors paired up together. the same colors all switched up between the two figures.
The subscriber version? I gotta talk to SB about spilling the beans, or we won't have any good suprises for you guys!

I like the regular, just the green is just very different in colour to what we have been getting colour wise lately. Red, Black and White (or Orange) is a little played out for mine.
Who was asking for a Shamrock SB toy? Pretty darn close!!

Super 7 should maybe think about having direct deposit set up so we can just have a portion of our pay checks sent to them every 2 weeks...
The green one is fantastic!

I like both of them. That green one is awesome, the pink on the body looks pretty cool with it.

That would be me who wanted a green glow and shamrock trunks/gloves St. Patrick's Day GF. Admittedly, this is pretty close. Close enough for me right now, anyway. ^_^
I am a full Ghost Fighter convert. I wasn't sure at first, but then I was struck with the SB fever... now I love the Ghost Fighter.
Of course, I'd say the Skull Brain is my favourite, but GF is very cool in my book. More for the SB army!

I'm assuming the email will go out tomorrow with the sale of the regular version. But you know what they say about assumptions...

regular version will go on sale tomorrow at 12
subscribers will get an email tomorrow before 3pm
It will take me a while to get the list together of people who will get the subscriber version, so please be patient. Hopefully I will have all the reservations in before 4pm and then I can send out invoices before 6pm.
thanks

Is that going to be West Coast time? Hope so 'cause that'll give me more than enough time to get back to good ol' Brooklyn and wait for that email
The set, by the way, freakin' rocks! DYING to get my mitts on them.
