Do you know how hard it is to get an uncut Secret Base figure and near impossible to get a uncut Skullwing!! :shock:

Post Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
why would anyone assemble this? It is so amazing to get an uncut one...would look much better framed in a box, rather than trying to hack & slash your way into assembling it.

I look at this as I would a rare vinyl album pressing...some things you just don't want to fuck around with and enjoy it for what it is, a rare version of a cool toy.

I'm most likely in the minority, but I can't get too into the Skull Hevi. My opinion would probably change if I saw one in hand to appreciate it more, but I won't break the bank for one or lose my shit in a rush to a release. I will say I love the new bare knuckle hands, though. I'm huge on the gloves for SB fighters, and these ones just reinforce that fight toy feel for me. Might be out of place to say, but I wouldn't mind these arms/hands on a few new Skull Brains.

Pics or it didn't happen! :twisted:

Personally I don't know what I'd do if I had one. I may have to cut it! It's a toy which would never leave my collection. And it looks like rusty metal to boot!

As for the new hevi... I don't know if I'm on board with the cape, but I would like a clearer shot of the whole new arms unobstructed.

But those skullwings are tops on my list for now!

I think that Wing looks perfect unassembled.

And that caped Hevi is truly a thing of beauty (even the shirt is rad) :!:

Agreed about the unassembled skull wing. I would put it in a window display box thing to display. Very cool.

The Skull Hevi cape looks silly IMO and doesn't work for me.
Just not a fan of fur, hair, clothing, capes, scarves etc on toys.

I play my rare records all the time. What would be the fun of having these without spinning them?

You can always store the cape and display the hevi without it.

Can't say that about the Pirate orm though!

Hopefully i'll be track down one of these new armed hevis to decide if I like new arms or old gloves more.

The arms really do make the hevi for me personally, I really enjoy the amount of detail they have to the point I wish they where painted or not in a pearl white so you could see the detail in photos... I also was pleasantly surprised the head doesn't seem as big in person as it does in photos.

Arms look to have bandages unlike the fighter arms.
Still undecided...

Smooth arms and gloves worked for me with past Hevis

The close ups are great, thanks for sharing. I love the hands...they really add to the design and I agree with what someone else had mentioned, in that they look like a play off of the horns on the head.

Well- bandages are, kind of a Pushead thing, right? Pirates, Captains, Cococrocs all have them. SkullOrms have them. And the Hevi has bandages wrapping his skull, so... It makes sense to have arms that are also wrapped. :wink:

Looks awesome ascendingtom1.

Anyone in Japan during the other week get one of these?
If so, I'd love to see some shots in better detail. Surely someone got one?
