Yes, I did, but that thread was deleted and I didn't get a chance to see your answer.
Or he be announced in the next product reveal. Remember that most wanted character list that I made? Well Zandar was in the Top 10 and I know for a fact Emily has seen this list. Also, out of the characters that have been revealed for next year I don't think it's purely coincidentally that every character they have revealed for next year was on that list. With that being said in my opinion we can expect to see Zandar sooner as opposed to later because he's popular, he's a major Dreadnok, and he would look cool on the self.

WOW! 8000+ views. Now tell me Zarana & Zandar aren't popular.

How come Zarana & Zandar are never released together in the same wave or as a 2 pack, never match, and and never acknowledged as twins....even though they were released together their very first figures, match, and are twins?
I am having a monumentally rotten day/week/month/year/decade/take your pick. Can't even immerse in Joe fandom to take a temporary break.

I've noticed some things in the toys where it seems this lore is forgotten or unknown: There's no Zandar in the 2004 set with the purple Zarana Zarana's not in the Dreadnoks BBTS set...however it's likely because of her two SDCC exclusives-though her shirt is nowhere close to the pink of Zandar's Zarana's v2 outfit has no pink coloring with no Zandars in the line Zandar's not in the 3pk comic book line Zarana's not mentioned on Zandar's filecards, only Zartan Zandar's not mentioned in Zarana's filecards, only Zartan In summary, there's no concrete precedent in the toys for this whole twin thing between the two of them. It's obvious in the toy line the pink was just to give them something unusually colorful to connect them visually |

Their card art shows them in mirror poses of each other. They both have a dagger on their right thighs. They both have a holster on their left shoulders. They both have the family style upper arm armor. Zarana even had the same color blue armor in her early painted sample figure. And her eyes resembled Zandar's a bit more. Hell, I'm even going to will another connection into existence: his headband is made from the torn fabric from her pants. It's just more fun to think of them as having a deeper connection. I really don't understand the desire to break that down. I wish more people here spoke with such passion about their favorite characters. Instead we get bitching about card stock or how they plan to fund their purchase of one Hiss by buying one or two more blah blah blah. |

I don't think anyone "wants" to break that down, but that's what happens when something is discussed ad nauseum

I didn't know they had a color changing gimmick for their original releases. Be nice if they could incorporate that into Classified. Still even if they didn't, as long as the figures look good I don't care.

It makes zero sense that Zartan has it, but neither of his siblings. They should all possess the ability. **TRIVIA** Zarana's figure was also originally supposed to feature color-changing hair apparently that would have made it turn purple in sunlight with her skin.

Oh! That would of been cool. I can kind of understand why they didn't go through with it. Still when it comes to Classified, the MOD Zartan that actually changes color is not all that appealing to me because he changes color in COLD places not hot or sunny places which is contradictory to the character. So I can't really justify spending over $100 for him when they screwed that up. I'll probably gun for the Retro Carded Zartan if the price is right. Though I just really want a Zartan with his Chameleon Swamp Ski.

To be fair, their having holsters and sheathes in those locations just indicates that they are right-handed.
