    I'm not really sure what I'm going to do here. I love Herc and TFC, but do I need a recolor? Looks pretty good though.

    I was just thinking f starting this thread after I saw those pics. You know... I kind of like this more than Hercules. However I would fear it would look too similar next to Uranos deco-wise. Still... It looks pretty awesome.

    Looks stunning but alas it shall not be a part of my collection.

    I gave them my support with Hercules so I do not feel bad. :p 


    edit: One thing that really pisses me off is that red blade, now I know for fact there was no reason other than designer ego to give us that stupid black blade. This dead horse ain't dead enough.

    Updated first post with previous images. I like that they even swapped the limbs to "mirror" Hercules. ;)

    I do like the swapped limbs as well. It changes things and is quite fun.

    Damn, I need a price on this guy so I can try to talk myself out of it.

    Looks great, but not worth spending over $650 on.

    If they were smart they'd wait a year or two before releasing this. Soooo many other projects higher on the priority list than this (for me at least).

    I'm really interested to see how this one sells, and at what price point and quantities.

    Where are these new images from? You sourced the old pics, but not the new ones?

    Robot kingdom did say it was going to be sold as a gift set, so I'm curious if the price comes in closer to 450/500. I think they would be insane to charge the same price for Hercules right out of the gate when there isn't nearly as much interest in SG colors as there is G1.

    There goes my 20% chance of getting only Dr. Crank. He looks awesome in those colors (any colors, really)

    The design is great, it looks great, I love the toys, but I can't pull the trigger on a second Hercules or any SG characters. I really hope it does well and fair play for TFC for giving the fans a truly niche version of one of the best toys I've bought in years.
