    Weak. They should be finishing Spartan instead of making these black repaints.

    Honestly I hate recolors who are just that guy in another color. Would have rather seen him be some other character.

    Of course people can now get this for their Nero Rex to use as a rifle... so the deco makes sense.

    More than likely when they ran the initial run they just told the factory make the last 250 in black, set those aside and saved them as a convention exclusive. It probably cost little to no time.

    This is easy money for them, I totally get why they do it. This fandom shits their pants any time you paint a character black.

    All you guys asking for one, do any of you even know if you'll be willing to pay the retail price? I don't think it's been announced yet.

    I'm thinking unless this paint job is absolutely eye popping, or there is a nice looking new head sculpt, I gotta say I'm disappointed with their choice of exclusive. I like Cynicus but he is my least favorite MMC mold, and was hoping they might do a felisaber or spartan. It's my first TFCON and I have a chance to go a bit wild with some purchases and was hoping really looking forward to the MMC booth. Fingers crossed that Spartan might be there for purchase.
