If the Club does what they've done in the past, with things like the M.O.T.H. sets, they'll all get made.

I think this is different than the MOTH sets. Those were primarily army builders. You have maybe one figure that appeals to primarily 3" joes (dr. Venom) and the rest are all 12" characters scaled down. At the prices the club has to set for these, I don't see them making it all the way through. I just don't think there is enough appeal for this type of product.

I'll get them. I try to support the GIJCC as much as I can. Many of you don't like the GIJCC prices on their exclusives but for me it's not a big deal. I understand what they have to go through to make these exclusives. They're not Hasbro who can order a million from China and sell them for $8-$10 each. The club gets charged the same wether they order 1000 or a million. If every person on every Joe Forum that's out there were a member of the GIJCC and bought stuff from the club, I'm pretty sure the prices would be lower.

I specifically want a Doctor Venom, but I kinda like the other figures too.

Hopefully we'll hear more about these in the first quarter of '010 [Yeah that's right, '010]. I'm gonna be tired of Fangs when this is all over, but the other vehicles area nice change.

Yeah, but again, those are ARAH figures, and a new female figure. Even though the demand was diminished, it wasn't still there. I just don't see near the demand for 12" figs remade into the 3" spectrum. But given this is 12" themed stuff it'll probably be jacked through hard by Savage because it is 12" themed even if it sells terribly.

... I had heard of them and took "Eagle Eye" off of my custom list. I didn't know they were making vehicles.
Now I can take almost every vehicle I was planning off the list, too (Sea Wolf, repainted FANG, 3 axle thing). This is great for me, the laziest of customizers. Just one vehicle I want to make up (since I already bought the parts) and a couple "Super AT" member updates. And maybe that Triumph guy and a... a no element "Adventurer" (you know the guy). I'll buy them, griping about the cost, but I wouldn't think about not buying them. I'm... not well in the head. The beauty is, they will still likely release faster than I'd make my customs.
