1:12 scale? Hmm, so...that sounds like 6" scale, but probably the smaller end of 6" scale, right? Like maybe in scale with the Star Wars Black figs, or Funko's Game of Thrones? I wish they'd put some figs we are all familiar with in these pics so we could get a better idea of the size.

I think I wish it was more like 1:10 scale. I'd love to have my Gears of War dudes or Aliens space marines piloting some of these things and blowing the hell out of my Locusts or some Predators and Aliens, LOL.

edit:
Aha, I think the Quake II space marines would be about the right size. Time to go kick some Strogg butt!

I wish they'd give us more than just a couple of days notice for this. This is ridiculous.

$390 USD- $430 USD is a fair chunk of change.

Why does everything have to come in February?

The 4 Horsemen's Kickstarter is coming this month, Play With This Too's Kickstarter is coming this month, my MOTUC subscription has the extra King Hiss & Snake Armor He-man 2-pack and the glow-in-the-dark Spirit of Grayskull figs coming this month, plus there are a bunch of pre-ordered items that were supposed to come in before Xmas that have been delayed again and again and could arrive at any moment and be charged too.

This is insanity!

Having all this great stuff to buy is wonderful guys, but please try and space it out a bit. -- Or at least give us a few months' warning to get our budgets ready, OK?
