They are really pushing the completists

Lame.......

 

[magman3]

Yeah, I think I'll have to pass on that one!

 

[Ktjn]

Zombies with a fashion sense.




If the ES was halfved (150), and he had his proto skin color...I might have bit. But this really is weak on SS part. No new accesory...

Its starting to be a hassle being a completest. I can handle 2 variants but when it starts being 3 or 4 of the same figure it's hard to justify buying them all.

Don't give in, don't buy, fight the power.

heh

With some of the color variations it works. For instance, the Doc. I have one displayed with the coat, one w/o and works. Same with the Spokesman, one with jacket, one w/o. I didn't bother with the other 805 variant as I'll pass on this one as well, same with the babysitters, with exception to the spook variant which I did pick up. Needless to say I'm not a completist and never will be. I don't have deep enough pockets nor the space for all of them.

 

[Darth Loki]

Lame.......

Thanks for not making me miss this line SS

 

[The Mike]

3rd Variant for this guy, 4th for the Babysitter....I'm half expecting another Corporate Spokesman...

 

[The Ringer]

I forget what the original edition looks like.

 

[creature4000]

Wow.. is that ^^^^ing Lame Sideshow!!! Terrible idea/announcment!!!!!

 

[galactiboy]

Have to agree that this is a laaaame figure... although I think so far the black outfit with green head looks best out of the possible variants.

 

[Fritz]

Even though I got out of the dead line because I was afraid of this sort of thing (being a completist and all), I ended up ordering this because I'm a rare whore and the baby sitter for the t-shirt.

 

[Alice Adrenochrome]

With so many different variants of one figure, even the low edition size can't convince me anymore to order. A whole lot of people are trying to put their cash where it counts, and SSC comes up with ... variants!

Yes, but the classic IM comiquette still wins first price in the 'terrible idea' category for carrying a flag!

So you're that guy with the zebra spook sitters on eBay.

As long as people keep buying them, they'll keep making them.

 

[Darth Rage]

Huh...This one is dressed in what looks like all black.

Is that the difference? (other than the ES) I didn't even see it mentioned in the description. Thanks, I honestly didn't realize what was different about this version.

 

[Entropy]

Ok. This one has killed the completeist bug. 4 babysitters is one thing, 3 ugly 805s are another.


Sideshow you are ruining this line with all the variants!!

Hope you're happy pissing off your fans with these rehashes.

I used to love SS so much, but between crap like this, poor paint on some figures and the shoddy way the 1:6 LotR line has gone, SS has left this fan a bit miffed and disillusioned.

 

[The Josh]

I'm getting it but enough already. I mean this really does border on being a touch too much.

 

[EVILFACE]

Must be all those cancelled original's dyed black lol.

Finally people are coming to reason! Oh happy day!
