Yet another head-scratcher from the Club. Luckily I was able to trade a set of red dishes from a person who got the Con version, but not the FSS.

I used the con version's dishes on my FSS one as well and then sold the con one. I just needed one in vintage colors

At best, it's another example of their shortsightedness. At worst, they intentionally sold incorrect product so we would have to pay for "upgrades" later.

The second option is sure possible with the club, but I actually believe its the former. I think at the time of the NF set, they weren't planning on releasing regular versions of all those characters. They gave Psyche Out red dishes to hedge between regular and NF colors and try to appease everyone. When we all asked for regular colors anyway, they decided to give him black dishes and "fix" the problem (but only for those who could buy both versions).

Another example of why I think they just didn't have things planned out, was zombie hunter Outback and TF Outback. If they knew they were planning on sculpting a new head for Outback (which has never been used again since) why not do it for the zombie hunter figure and then reuse it for Tiger Force. That would have cost them the same amount, and vastly improved the zombie hunter figure. Wouldn't everyone have loved to get that head sculpt with his original hair color?

Yes!

Didn't that happen during their first shutdown?

jfaria · Yesterday, 01:27 PM

TF Outback was in FSS 4. I’m pretty sure that was before they thought they were getting shut down.

Okay, couldn't remember exactly.
