I'm out before they could try to drag me in at $85. Fuck that noise. I was balking when I thought the price would be around the mid-$60 range.
 
Cabbot and Bloodwulf were $75, so seems this is that plus tariffs. I get that's a pretty crazy price, but much like Super 7 Silverhawks I'm not getting these guys from any other company any time soon so I pay.
 
Hey it's all in what pulls you in from your nostalgia with lines like this. Youngblood was ok for me, and maybe would have pulled me in better if the comic ever came out on time, but it's haphazard shipping scheule and visuals over substance killed it for me. Still, at a reasonable price (for me), I'd have bought the series.
 
Now I’m torn. If I preorder these, I can never question Hasbro’s price structure again, and I love questioning Hasbro’s price structure.
 
I”m just kidding (more or less). I’m still in. The Marvel and DC licenses will always be my first love, but getting something different on the shelf holds a lot of appeal for me these days.
 
Yeah... naw. Whatever the reasoning might be, real or fanciful, 120 bucks Canadian is way more than I'm willing to pay for these characters. Even if I've always wanted to get a Shaft figure and give him a sword so he can be my off-brand Shatterstar.
 
This is certainly intriguing .....

Looks amazing, but I already know I won't be able to afford that big bastard (not to mention the fact I'd literally have no place to put him). Been wanting a great Cthulhu figure forever, but I just have to accept that this is going to be impossible for me.
 
Yeah, this'll be like the Mythic Legions Dragon. The '97 Sentinel is the last oversized thing I can reasonably get. I'm out of room for big stuff. Don't even really have room for the big stuff I've already got. If they do a shrunk down 'star spawn' version, I'm all for it.

Also, just as a musing, but holy hell the engineering on that thing will be a nightmare given how top-heavy it'll be. I know their bread and butter is hulked out muscle sculpts, but honestly a pudgier Cthulhu with thicker feet and more weight towards the middle would probably have better stability. That thing looks *built* to shelf-dive.
 
It definitely looks like it would be falling off your shelf in the middle of the night, waking everyone up. Talk about a thing that goes bump in the night!

My cat would definitely want to do one of his physics experiments on it. He's a very smart cat, but overly focused on gravitational acceleration. I keep telling him to branch out.

Just think of it as Cthulhu returning to his house at R'lyeh.
