Looks great. Good choice to start the line with.

A tad too symmetrical, but looking really good.

Nice! As guessed, not the one I most wanted, though agree looks good! It's likely the least complicated to make and the one most want.

Anything past 2 figures is a stretch for Iconiq going by their delays and track record.

Still hope that is not the case, and it does well enough we do eventually get to all three in the their ancient/mythic version.

Makes sense, since it's probably the easiest to make. If it doesn't sell the hit will be small.

Looks good but not a purchase for me.

I own their figure from American Psycho and I love it. WIll probbaly buy this.

They took their time to release the American Psycho figure....

 

[EMG1986]

The only other thing that concerns me is that with only 888 available, the price, and after how much people will try to sell for value. But one thing at a time, it could be years until actual release anyways.

Modern Connor and a modern Duncan would be insanely cool

That Highlander show was so great.

It's a great concept that lends itself to longform storytelling.

HEEEEEEERE WE ARE!!!!

Not really. Since “they’re can be only one.” The TV series was incredibly stupid, just like the crap movie sequels. It should have been one and done. End of story.

True, the concept was (is) great,....

Also true.

Where the concept lent itself best to longform story telling though, was as prequels not sequels.
Since the movie established the definitave end, and should have stuck with that. Everything that followed somewhat betrayed that.
Yet it's true the premise was worth mining, almost infinitely so, as prequels; new characters, sword wielding heroes and villains from all different times and cultures.
Despite it the show was terrific, and with some revision skirted that line.
