    so is it 100% that this is going to be a staggered release for all of these? say one a month? so gonna take 6 months to get the whole lot lol 2 a month would make more sense

    Staggered release confirmed. And has been for some time now.

    And there was very little chance at a giftset release in the first place, at least initially.

    Actually one a month makes more sense business wise. More people would be able to afford it.

    I completely understand. I originally wanted a gift set from the get go. But then I had a few emergencies pop up that caused me to spend all the money I had set aside for the set and then some. So now I'm happy to see a staggered released. Lol.

    I just wanted to be able to buy all of them at 1 time. Doesnt matter if its 6 boxes or a giftset...I want instant gratifacation.

    Hopefully they at least take a preorder for all 6 and ship out as they come out.

    My worst nightmare would be getting the first 5 and having the 6th sell out before I get my preorder in...

    This looks really good. So July now, eh? Any [reasonable] speculation on whether we'll see all 6 figs before #1 is released?

    I have a feeling this is going to happen to a lot of people.

    Well...yeah, I can completely see that happening. A scalper purchasing the whole lot of the last figure right as it becomes available, and people buying the inflated prices because people HAVE to finish not-Devs off.

    Go go *refresh*

    Ugh...I never saw the prototypes for that Reflector before. I was gonna get it after seeing those CG pics, but now I'm kind of eh about them. I think I might just buy the PE one eventually. There's just something about TFC's aesthetic that puts me off when I see them in photos.

    You know that König Monster stands about 8" tall and it's at his waist. I would venture a guess that Herc will be around 16". Looks to be about double the König.

    ND doesn't look to have legs in that picture. I'm not saying that it may/maynot be 16" tall, just that the picture used may not be a good one to illustrate your point...or am I not seeing something?

    Would be really cool of places like BBTS or RK to offer preorders up early (a day, a week, twelve hours, whatever they think is appropriate, whatever limit they think is appropriate) to people who bought the previous piece from them. Certainly would pretty much guarantee five more benjamins from me.

    What would also be nice is if they allowed those who order the first character a chance to preorder each sequential release until the end, giving everyone that was out to purchase a set the chance to actually complete it, but in business, I guess money is money.
