    As Scott Hall used to say, that's just:

    "too sweet...!"
    Diggin the box art, and the canadian flag in the upper right hand corner is a really nice touch. Can't wait to see pics of the finished product. This little exclusive will make a nice additon to my collection =)

    That is some kick ass art! I love the wear on his body. Been through some battles.

    The artwork is not new, just the colours.

    I wish I could get him, but three factors tell me no.

    I have Sllag.

    I don't like Toronto.

    I can't afford it.

    Sure would have been nice to have Sludge or Swoop to finish out the line instead of another recolor....

    Was the line originally planned to be wrapped up last year (as in ALL of the figs?) Hell, snarl was released in January of last year... I can't help but think they could have made more money and had better distribution with a 5pc box set.

    Whatevs... I guess I'll have to wait until March 08 to get swoop.....

    this isn't a line wrap-up. I expect to hear news about sludge within the next few months.

    Right, but at this point it *should* be wrapped.

    If I remember correctly, wasn't their original plan to release a new figure every month or two? 14 months in and there's only been three molds... not exactly breakneck speed here, and I think they could have done a better job marketing this-- I'd be willing to bet people's G1 flame is petering out at this point and gearing up for some movie greatness. If they stuck with their original goal I bet they would have done much better. And you would have got your sludge 6-8 months ago.

    You expect to hear news about Sludge in the next few months?

    Well, I'm gonna go watch moss grow while we wait.

    Haha! My sentiments exactly. I would've liked them to come out a little faster too.

    And as for people's G1 flame going out, I know mine ain't. As far as I'm concerned, if the movie never came out, I wouldn't care in the least.

    I meant the whole ordeal.

    And when I said I can't afford it I didn't mean money-wise.
    Makes no difference to me.

    what whole ordeal? I sure as heck aint going all the way up to Canada... As for should be? you need to remember there's only a handful of guys working together to be what we know as Justitoys. Its spelled out in one of the main links on the main page. Sure, the impatient part of me wants these 5 years ago, but I'm being realistic and having no problem with it at all.

    I hope, like Santa Commander's santa hat, that he comes with a tiny Canadian flag (ooo! or maybe a mountie hat!) to carry in his mouth :p
