He's probably waiting for his to arrive in the mail.

Yeah, I first read this at 3 pages, now 23. I'm not gonna go through all of the bickering over this.
When the Night Specter was first released as a Target excl. People wondered "WHY NOT THE RED PADS??" they got their panties all knotted in a twist over a store exclusive that wasn't a V1 adaptation of a 25 year old figure. Why? To differentiate it from Flash who was coming out later. Fans have clamoured for a Red pad Grand Slam for YEARS. And when we get it, everyone goes bat-shit angry. The way I'm guessing the Club gave us what we wanted, kept it secret til we didn't think it would come to be, and look. All of you who were raising a fuss, or too lazy to learn to paint Finally got it. Thank you FSS/ Joe Club. GRANTED... A new Headsculpt, and a JUMP would have made it better, it's apparent you do indeed listen to the fans. While I buy FSS 2nd hand, I for one am definitely putting GS on my list.

I think peeps really need to re-adjustthier expectations on what this FSS is gogin to offer and especially so on the unknown 13th figure. There isnt going to be any massive retooling or total remakes of new parts coming into these line ups, formwhat other say about tooling, it costs way to much for such a limited run of figures. A head or 2 maybe...but that leaves all of the tons of parts left out there that have already been used and ones deemed no longer going to be used int he future by Hasrbo fromt hem to pick from. Re-paints like this will become more and more common as we move forward...and I am fine with that as long as they fit with a character in either color scheme or part setup (like this Grand Slam)
red pads Grand Slam is very underwhelming I don't even have the vintage one. I saw nowhere that people were "clamoring" for him.

I'm am going to go ahead and call bullshit on the everybody has been asking for a red pads Grand slam for years crock. Nobody was begging or clammorimg or even asking for this figure mainly because we already got 3 grand slam figures from retail releases and none of them were even hard to find. This is a lazy excuse for a figure plain and simple. Go ahead and keep telling yourselves people wanted it , but please stop trying to say everyone did its obvious by this thread it is not the case.

But now I get it, this is our first red pad grand slam, the others I own are all silver or ROC related. A little to redundant and I am more of a sunbow guy than a original 13 guy. Whatever it's less offensive than Black Out.

How we can even be sure that this is indeed a new production figure? I mean, couldn't they have just bought a bunch of Flash figures from around the country, put them on a new card back and saved a few bucks on production? (I kid - but this is the laziest of lazy kit bashes - the non-repaint non-kitbash, just repackage and rename!).
