At this point you are basically making Toy porn. All of these photos consistently make toys look great. It's not something I'd collect but kudos and congrats on the win. You could literally photo a potato and people would want to buy it. Keep it going!
@animator @Mr Fox @bryce_r Goodness, thank you gentleman. I’m extremely thankful and grateful for such kind expressions and your attention to the photos! Understandably this pair isn’t for everyone, but to have my photos reflect even the slightest desire of ownership is a massive compliment to me.
Gah, @Bob, fantastic lighting to catch those blues, especially in the face. Lookin’ very icy. Congrats on the winning lotto!!!
I’m sure Ken will sell a lot more of the minis. They are not a limited run. Silly that anyone would pay the eBay prices I’ve seen…
Dear Santa, Here is my Xmas list for this year: Please have @xSuicide Squadx take a picture of a potato and post it on Skullbrain That is all. Merry Xmas! - Blake
oh geez. thanks for pointing that out, Blake. Trying to work and ask questions at the same time maybe isn't the most productive/instructive. heh
How is the quality on the new minis? I love how inexpensive they are and they look identical to the other versions.
A friend says they are pretty good. A little smaller, but no far off from the minis. They connect via pegs instead of the usual joints, so you can swap parts a lot easier too.
I took these for a few friends to show the size and quality comparison. I feel like the old minis might become obsolete as the blind boxes are $20, about 2/3 the size and look just as good. I had the option to buy these Thursday and only bought 1. I didn't want to drop that much money before Dcon even started. Looking back I'd buy a case if given a 2nd chance.
I'm curious if they will do a big wholesale push to get these into a lot of toy shops. If production is high, seems like a slam dunk to get the figures into the hands of the more casual collector and really push the brand to another level.
Since they are produced by How2Work, I imagine all the usual stores will get them. How2Work is pretty widely distributed, that is my hope.
Having never had any of these in hand I didn't realize they were so big. The minis look great, and personally I loooove the 4" form factor (that's what she said...?). Would be super rad to be able to pick these up reasonably. Them being intentionally interchangeable would be a fun touch.
Oh, they’re so great. @animator broke it down quite nicely. These are rather superb in hand and I do think will render the standard minis dismissible if you’re not wanting to be a completist or have a size preference. They’re also half the cost of the mini predecessors, and slightly better quality(in my opinion). The entire figure is swappable, sans the hands, which made for some fun dream configurations at Ken’s booth.
