From what I gather, those are production samples.

Not only is there no parachute drop but remember there is no casino night, or bingo this year due to the fact it is being held in the state of Illinois.
I posted the question on the club forums regarding the cost increase due to the dock worker strike and how on WOJM Brian said this would be eaten by the club not the members. I asked if this has changed, so well see if the question gets answered or deleted. It is totally ridiculous to tell us we would not be charged for air freight, there would be a parachute drop and that we should be able to get all of the exclusives and then, once we have registered and they have our money they change go back on all of it. We bought on those conditions and they are switching the conditions on which we agreed. |

I'm not sure why you guys are upset about the lack of a parachute drop? The figures will still be for sale, right?

Also, being charged for a deco? Again, I ask those with a better memory than mine - Were club members charged more for the Tiger Force figures from the Dreadnok set? |

I have been reading these posts and there are over 363 pages of anguish. I decided back early to pass on this one. And after all that has transpired I am quite happy that I did. At the end of the day most of our lives are pretty stressful as is. So why add all the additional stress gratuitously. Do you really need the toys that badly? An economics professor of mine once said when referring to a major sports event "If is not on TV I do not need to watch it". So at times you have to ask yourself: If you have to jump through hoops, spend a chunk of money, spend countless hours checking the website, and all the aggravation, are the additional toys worth it?
The Club announced there would be roughly $600 in 4" exclusives. So waht? We still don't know exactly what they are. We do know there will be more than last year. How can all of you judge that the increase is ridiculous without even knowing the content of what you're buying? For those who say this is way to much... how about not buying one or two of the items? I don't go crazy when I walk into the grocery store and they are carrying an extra brand of candy bars. I implicitly understand that the store is not demanding that I increase my spending and purchase it. I walk by and continue on. As for the parachute drop, this one comes up every year. It's a shame, but if they can't get permission to drop them what are they to do? If there really is another shortage of the figures I would agree that's certainly something to complain about... but even that doesn't seem too clear to me... unfortunately their wording on the FAQ page is somewhat unclear. Anyway... I definitely feel people are overreacting (as usual). Oh well. Personally, I'm very excited to see what Hasbro will show and what the exclusives will be. I'll let you guys fester in the drama. |

Then either A. we're in for a treat or B. they hand picked the needle-in-haystack faces that don't have derpy eyes or color bleed around the hairlines. The skin tone gradients on Mayhem say "Photoshop" much more than "photograph."

I thought that too, so we'll see. But look at the moustache on Stalker, it's not perfect... leading me to believe those are real samples. Could be wrong though.
