Didn't the PoC Ninja Gadien Snake Eyes come with Slice and Dice masks with it?

I can see Slice being held off until next year because it would be more incentive for people to subscribe to next year's offerings in order to complete the "set". And if there ends up not being a next year's subscription, then Slice easily becomes the membership figure. Having Slice as the 13th figure would be a losing scenario for the Club and cause nothing but bitching.

OR what if the leaked list isn't accurate and Slice is one of the 12?

but if you are interested in the group, and order the sub, why would you be pissed that you also get Slice in addition to Dice since it actually completes the two? from the perspective of completing the two, it actually makes sense to include him, not exclude him, otherwise you have those people whining what is the point of Dice without Slice, and crying they have to sign up for a second sub just to complete them. |

sure, but he is part of a group that you are getting by ordering the sub. so anyone who doesn't sign up isn't getting Dice, so they probably aren't that interested in the group to begin with.

For me, it doesn't matter. I'd like it if Slice were the 13th figure because I plan on getting the sub. I'm just thinking that from the club's point of view, it would seem to me that they would maximize the number of subscribers by putting slice in next year's sub (assuming this one is successful enough to warrant it). Making the unknown bonus figure a really popular character just seems like it would backfire IMO. Though maybe their thinking is that it would entice more people to sign up next time. |

Keep in mind that they will be selling some of these figures outside of the sub as well, but that's not the case for the 13th figure. So I'm just thinking that there will be people that pick and choose and get Dice, and then they get pissed off when Slice is the bonus figure.

Though maybe their thinking is that it would entice more people to sign up next time. like you, I don't really care. neither choice is better than the other. But even though the cost of the bonus figure is going to be part of the costs of the other 12, Slice is such an easy figure to make, essentially a straight repaint will do, that his costs are so low that I could see the Club using him as the bonus figure just for that. |

If Slice is not part of this sub I'll be a bit pissed as whether I get the sub or not I'm going to have to eventually order something else to complete the duo.
It would be nice if Slice and Dice were in the same sub, wave or even comic pack since fans obviously will want both no matter what. |
