The first item of interest looks to be this SOTA Cthulhu Ultra Statue. One of the pics shows the head turned to the left, so I'm hoping it's got more articulation than just a neck joint, which would mean it's plastic and not ceramic or whatever like I'd think using the term 'ultra statue'. Anyway, I could see me getting this and bashing it to a proper giant-ass monster figure, unlike the underwhelming Cloverfield monster from Hasbro. |

The Club has members only pics of the 5-packs, 12 inch fig's. From the sounds of it, the 5 packs are really cool. |

yep the Club has pics of the Mass device, weather dominator and the figures in the those packs. YES they actually include the weather dominator and MASS device! also they show the VAMP, RAM, Armadillo and the Air Chariot colors are amazing, not major retooling i can see other then the chariot's snake mouth is artiuclated to open and close. |

You forgot to mention Lady Jaye with no hat. And javelins that have no handle. |

I just checked them out and they all look great, except for the 12 inch figures. |

Destro looks EXACTLY like 1983 destro, except in 25th. I love roadblock's shirt/pants colour scheme. |

Stalker and Lady Jaye are enough to make me buy the Mass Device and Weather Dominator sets. The fact that they come with awesome playset elements? Even better. Oh that's right, they also come with DVDs. Man, what a deal. The VAMP looks great, btw. Classic rollbars and gun with what looks like a couple extra hoses. I'll definitely be scoring that one. |

Surely hasbro could have came up with something way better than that. |

hopefully the face was just painted really really bad, as I think/hope is the issue. Also the angle might not be helping it at all. |

Yeah just like the 12" figures, I think they're all hand painted.. Well the ones that required some heavier sculpting. Stalker, Destro, and Roadblock are already made. I'm liking what I see and will get them. So long as I have the money or credit.... |
