SDCC Cobra Commander?

[IrishJedi]

Sweet! In this economy that's a great value.

 

[sheng_lung]

Hey, I'm just showing that it could have been much worse. So let the complaining end!

I tried saying that earlier sadly no one wants to agree to disagree

 

[The Mike]

That's no fun.

 

[MANDO]

Pretty sure he'll have a staff like this:

I'm betting that and the cape are the extras in question. No throne, thank god!

I'm sticking with the blue one I have on order.

 

[Dusty]

I agree to disagree

I'm sure many people will still hate it forever no matter what... and I'm okay with that

Me, I like the color and presentation a ton - very eye-catching. It'll be interesting to see how the Pre-Order goes, etc.

'Night all! Don't kill each other!

I hope he comes with a staff like that, although it would be very similar to the exclusive for the blue one so they might not so they don't piss the true blue guys off. Sigh. Who knows at this point.

But I'm with you on the cape. 99.9% sure he has one.

And I doubt he has the throne. That alone could have been the exclusive. Remember, attendees have to carry thes around the convention. They learned their lesson with the PF Luke. No large items, which would include the throne if done properly.

Me, I like the color and presentation a lot - very eye-catching. It'll be interesting to see how the Pre-Order goes, etc.

'Night all! Don't kill each other!

I think the colors are eye catching as well. That silver and red really looks great together. That is really what sold me on the figure (that and the fact you are impressed by it).

perfect con exclusive......non-essential but nice for those attending or completists

 

[Darklord Dave]

For those of you who don't want the Crimson Commander in their collection - don't buy it.

Con exclusives could be considered not even part of the line, but a little step off the path - completeists can buy it and be glad they have the whole line - and completeists can not buy it and still feel like they haven't missed anything.

Inappropriate remarks and over the top stupidity will be (and has been), as usual, deleted.

 

[kl241]

Too bad for you... I guess if you don't get your way you take your ball and go home?

Yup.

I'm not upset about the choice for Exclusive because I get to save some cash now. But Hopely SS doesn't gage popularity of a licence because of a peice like this. Of course it will sell out though.

Sideshow wouldn't gauge popularity of a license off of any Con Ex, whether it's a stunning product or a shat product. That's why it's a Con Ex. You either want it, or you don't. Only being made in a low es... hence Con Ex.

Once again, they'll be getting my money for this, as well as others' money. They're not losing money with their products, trust me

 

[Deeznutz6]

As a paying customer it is my right to complain about the choices they make, its simple i dont like it dont buy it. But these forums are here for us to voice our opinions.
If we all agreed, there would be no point in having them.

Just a bunch of "I got my notice", "me to", "me three"

Pretty Much

For those of you who don't want the Crimson Commander in their collection - don't buy it.

Exactly Dave! You can have it all and be ok with having this or not and still have a great set of GI Figures. Really no need to freak out and overreact to it.

[RichAlot]

It's actually pretty cool looking from what I can make out the thumbnail teaser, but I never really liked the Crimson Commander (not even in 3-3/4 inch) so this is a pass for me. Now, if this comes with alternate chrome dome head that would fit onto my pre-ordered blue version, my arm is twisted...

 

[The ill Jedi]

This goes for this thread too...

Those that are crying and complaining need to get the ^^^^ over it. Jesus.

 

[King Darkness]

Yes please.

Hi Ill

 

[The ill Jedi]

Yes please.

Hi Ill

Well hello again!

 

[thenammagazine]

WHOA. So it's the collectors' fault when a company makes bad decisions and people stop buying and the line suffers? I must say, Lonnie... that's a new one.

Sideshow mantra verbatum! That's what they said about LOTR and most likely will say about Indy.

It starts with one...

Do you remember who said that? kl241. Hardly what I'd call a reliable source. Chances are, he either never bought into the line in the first place, canceled his order a WHILE ago due to funds (as a matter of fact I remember him "canceling" it when the prodo pics of SE appeared) or kept all his orders and is eagerly anticipating picking up the Cotex Commander too!

Broaden your minds folks, if Dusty admits that she isn't a huge JOE fan but the "extra" was enough to lock her purchase then what would appeal to a non-fan?
