There's already listings for these on ebay for $70. Sometimes, this hobby is just stupid.

It seems likely these will be on store shelves, right? Any idea when these are supposed to be available, @JayC?
Target says August 14th.

Gonna go ahead and address the elephant in the room. I hope the fact these are from a real toy company with actual mainstream resources makes the difference, and everybody gets a shot, cause after last weeks Turtle megillah, all I see right now is so much Bot-Chow.
Well, something happened. At 8:59 they were coming soon, at 9am they were "sold out" already.

Umm.. "sold out" in 10 seconds? That doesn't seem right.
-
I'll 2nd that. These are the some of the best figures ever made.
-
You're a machine. And those are all copious amounts of awesome.

I was afraid he was the next fig from the concept art Sideshow was showing (I'm hoping for Storm Shadow soon.)
I like the concept, but not thrilled with the execution. I love the the Snake Eyes figure, but this one I'll pass on.
Something about that outfit makes his body lines look odd. Angled shoulders, too straight legs. He doesn't seem.. formidable. I also don't like mixing media on 12-inch figs. It'd have been nice if they could have gotten his hood to look good using cloth instead of a full molded piece.
Oh well, saves me $120.
-
Very cool. You actually make what I passed over as a crappy fig look sweet. I didn't realize till looking at your repainted pics that the sculpt is actually very good.
-
You guys might want to rethink about repainting one because there is one thats selling on eBay for a LOT!! So if your good with the swatches i recommend it!
That's crazy. It's like 20 minutes of painting.
(PS. They look better RED! They're ninjas not Power Rangers.)

Just got mine from bigbadtoystore... I'll throw in another vote for "these are awesome." Best figures I've bought in years.
-
Plus shipping.

Make that just Firefly.
Shipwreck is in unopened mint condition.
Looking for a 25th ann. Firefly, opened or sealed.
If you want to see a photo let me know.

Your eye for choice of base, hijacked pieces, and new sculpting never ceases to impress me.
-
You know Hasbro will repaint and reuse the mold 2 or 3 times. No reason to go out of your way for this one.
-
where the hell did you fins the 2 real gear figures? ( power up and the watch ) i have been looking for them ever since i seen the proto types before the movie figs came out. please let me know, thanks.
I've never seen the watch (which is VERY cool, I want) but I saw the controller at Target once. Once.
I've gone back many times to try to find it to no avail.
-
Blackout is $3,400 worth of cool apparently. http://cgi.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...em=320126972120
To someone at least. No, I have no idea why they're selling for this much but I'm paid in full for each one and will make them until the cows come home. I mean yeah, this has become my full-time job now.
Congrats, Jin. Those are awesome reworks.
-
All the movie Transformers really look great repainted.
-
You made the leader class Megs look good.
-
Wow. If you hadn't said it was a 6" people would take it for a 12".

I picked up Brawl and am going to send a nasty letter to Hasbro this weekend. I'll probably sound like angry comic book guy, but whatever. The quality on this thing (or lack thereof) really pisses me off.
One of the swing arms on the top turret isn't mounted correctly and the entire top turret is mounted at an angle. I plan on taking pics for Hasbro and I'll post them here, too. The plastic seems like a bad choice, it gets stress marks from the smallest amount of force. The arm pegs, as mentioned before, do not hold at all. Not even a little.
This is not a toy suitable for kids. My kid would cry if I gave this to him as it is.
It's soured me on the whole line. Please tell me that Brawl is an exception and that I just got a bad QA screw-up.
-
I like that they are still instantly recognizable as SS and SE. And the use of the hated blue on SE is awesome.
-
What? Where have I been?
Anything special I need to look for to recognize these new jointed figures?
Edit: Okay.. I think I figured it out. The new flying ninjas have different joints, right? (I thought he meant a release of the original Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow figs with new joints. Duh)
-
They're different. If your a true masterpiece fan don't waste your money on this. Go get the Takara version, it might cost a little more but its worth it. It's the best toy ever made!!
I'd 2nd that the Takara version is better. The smoke stacks make all the difference to me.
-
Doesn't the original one have die-cast chest and leg parts, while the new one is all plastic?
Also, the color. Ick.
