    I just got my invoice from TF source. Which was surprising because the estimated date was February

    Because it wasn’t in stock there when I placed the pre-order and I don’t check every other retailer on a regular basis

    Not really. A few dollars won’t change my life either way.

    After 1-2 months of trying to get my rung from PSX, 3 battles w/my local post office & customs, FINALLY got my rung. He is GREAT and 1 of my fav figures of the year, so much character, fun to pose & imo straight off the idw pages. Had to heat the antennas to get em straight but not a big issue.

    Special, SPECIAL shoutout to Planet steel express, GREAT GREAT customer service as they had to try & mail him THREE times to me and were very sound & patient with me throughout. BEST 3rd party company in terms of customer service imo. Massive props to em.

    damn, really want this, but 150ish for a small Rung figure feels a bit much...

    With all the shit he comes with and how the figure is in general, its worth it.

    This is my figure of the year.

    Depends on your love for the character and for me I do from my love for the comics, I was iffy on price but once in hand............. NO F'in REGRETS. For me anyway.

    I was about to agree until I remembered that Optus Pexus was my first figure of the year. He came out swinging and held the title IMHO.

    Agreed, Pexus came out in January as a new standard in articulation for TF. Then we got Eris in April as well as Nox now. The engineering growth of MMC is only getting better and better.

    If you like the character, you'll love the figure. He's so much fun to pose.
