Thanks all,
Lgcoldrink, I'm def anxious to see the painted samples myself. I specified some metallic finishes and i hope it worked out.
Poysntixels, Manimal, The CRZ will be 9" of Bot goodness. The bulk actually makes him look even bigger.
Devilboy, Yes very satisfiying, like having a baby except without the morning sickness and the xxx hours of labor pains  maybe,, 
Frank, very possible, just fo you mang

The legs are glued in place to insure the figure will stand indefinately. I have the unpainted sample and it really dosn't need any other points of articulations to have fun with

It was bag with headers but there was an issue with the fin on top of his head and the bulkiness overall. I didn't want to drive the cost up with a fancy box from the begining so we are going with a (hopefully) recloseable clamshell packaging.
