Wow. This club is worth bollock all. They said that all bar the first figure would be remoulded. Shite says I.

They also said that it is not cost effective to do so. As far as I know, the other two figures will just be repaints as well, with the possibility of a remolded gestalt head.

Maybe they could use some of the profits from their overpriced convention packages, or mayhap stop sending us a useless classified ad every other month.

Let's not go there this time around eh?

Anyway, the figure looks interesting. I can't tell exactly how much clear plastic is involved.

I hope there is a lot. :grin:

::EDIT:: Looks like all the red parts are transluscent.

I would not find it best to name a hard to find, possibly expensive, figure to be named "Breakaway". :-?

Doesn't look all that bad. I don't know if I registered on time or not to get one.

That is not all that different from the figure he is based on...
Too much red, the head in particular needs another colour on it.

Actually, I believe you can still order the previous figures...it's just you can't get each figure as a free membership incentive unless youve been a member the whole time.

Agreed. However, I must note there was no comment about the second half of my statement there.

You can order Skyfall for $20. But not landquake. And you have to be a member to get it.

Looks nice enough to me. My only complaint is the head deco seems a bit... meh? Otherwise, he'll go nicely with his other two compatriots. I like the fact that he's got two different color transparent plastics. Red for the body and smoky for the weapon.
