 Re: Official SDCC 2008 Preview Thread (Spoilers) m3kcomp wrote: me too.
any of the classic looks would have been fine by me...but this appears to be more in keeping with their current style/aesthetic...like those cartoony posters they were putting out a few years ago...these look like they popped off of those.
I would have even been down for Cube-E style figures...or even classic action figure style toys with the Eyeball and the Skull head being interchangable...to me the Residents are more menacing than cartoony, but it's their bus.
however, being a HUGE fan of the Residents I have learned that they always do what they want...I'm just glad they're still around. They'll be doing a few showcase gigs in NYC at Blender Theater at Gramercy in October so they're still around. liquidsky wrote: marswillrule wrote: Parka wrote: Anyone seen the Residents figures?  I'm so disappointed and my wallet is relieved. I wanted something along the lines of Eskimo. You must have missed the Puppet from Serbia or Croatia or wherever. Its basically what you wanted Liquid but insanely high quality with a cloth outfit. They don't seem to like to repeat themselves so not surprised no Eskimo figure.

Re: Official SDCC 2008 Preview Thread (Spoilers) jhateball wrote: Joe wrote:  And there's ANOTHER Rangeas for SDCC?  That is the coolest Rangeas to date. HOLY SHIT. Just so everybody knows, the TT Exclusive Rangeas and Bearhunter are also both pink and are both GID...I'm not sure of the paint scheme on the TT Rangeas, but the TTF versions are not GID...just wanted to clarify for those going to the Con. as soon as we get pictures I'll put them up, but as of now I just wanted to let the glow news go...

I guess for TTF it makes sense to use a seafood type color...but describing it as salmon makes me question my whole collection, and want to throw up...like you said, it's worse than "flesh." GID Pink/Flesh/Salmon Exclusives!

As a dude with half a brain stuck on Rangeas and half a brain stuck on Dokugan (*shiver of terror*), I can say that the TT booth is my super huge 100 percent first stop to make on Thursday. Thanks for the advance info. REALLY hoping there'll be enough of these to last past preview night.

Re: Official SDCC 2008 Preview Thread (Spoilers) Maybe i'm late but those Residents figures are a total letdown... This could have been a cool oppurtunity. I'm not even commenting on that Arkiv turd.

Re: Official SDCC 2008 Preview Thread (Spoilers) just found out the the paint scheme is basically the same on both the TTF and TT Rangeas...so there are two versions, and the TT one is the GID...
