    Considered the option of "failed approve to make more".

    It's not KO-ish. But like some other test shots it does have some issues with the joints.

    It has been an unusually long time since pics surfaced. I'm almost willing to bet that this toy will not see a significant release.

    It's not often the fandom takes so long to dig out the official detail regarding a figure like this.
    I am very intruiged.

    Surely one day someone will come out and say "oh this is mine I made it" or "it came from here because..."?

    I'd agree with it being cancelled, based on the length of time since pics first surfaced. I know protos and even packaged samples of movie toys appeared early, but this has been quiet for too long. I'm leaning toward it being a canned Wonderfest exclusive too, based on the market it's aimed at.

    Damn I want one of those bad! Just not 400$ bad.
    I'll buy it for 400 bucks if it comes with a new head with a faceplate and a green repaint as Tap-Out... well I can dream at least.

    Cancelled exclusive sounds likely I guess. Just wish someone had heard something from Tak-Tomy about it. Maybe someday we will know for sure.
