It is no big deal. I will end up buying it. I missed one. I am not going to let this get into my head. |

Will someone please help me out with some measurements? How long are the horses from chest to rump, and how wide are they at the shoulders?
I'm re-working my old-west wagon design and I want to make sure it's compatible with the BFS steeds.

Has BFS mentioned that they will be releasing the blue skull Gazoge recently?

Before the red went on sale, they had said the blue would go up after the red had sold. Of course they didn't expect the red to sell so fast. So no telling how quickly it will happen.

The rough numbers I got witha tape measure were 3 11/16 inches from chest to rump at the furthest points, and the shoulders were between 1 5/16 in. and 1 11/32 in., measuring at the widest point (where the forelegs plug into the body).
Hope this is helpful, and that you get a few more to check my numbers against!

"They announced" is a meaningless statement. Did they announce it by yelling it out their office window into the street? They may as well have, because that's about how far the news went. Boss Fight never once mentioned this exclusive in any of their e-mails. If you subscribe to a company's newsletter, you should hear about EVERYTHING they make. I've certainly heard about Flash Gordon, Bucky O'hare, zombies, etc. from that newsletter. But nothing about this figure. No one should have to use Facebook just to keep up with news on a toy line. Facebook is designed for people who know each other in real life to socialize. It is horribly organized, configured and structured to be used for anything else. It is utterly impossible to set up Facebook to get alerts and notifications on anything you want without forcing yourself to be spammed with endless garbage at the same time. No one in their right mind is going to wade through all that junk day after day after day in the hopes they'll filter out one announcement every couple of years of the odd figure that isn't reported on anywhere else on the internet but Facebook. I would miss 100 more Gazoge-like figures gladly before I ever spend any time on the tenth level of hell that is epitomized by looking at the trash feed of worthless, unnavigable spam that Facebook puts out.

No, we're not. I already explained with meticulous research and explicitly detailed examples how the news about Mega's exclusive spread far and wide across the internet months in advance while the news about Gazoge was virtually non-existent, with barely a blip finally appearing just mere days before its release and almost no prominent announcements on toy news sites until AFTER it went on sale.

JediJones, I feel the frustration. I understand both sides to an extent. My biggest head scratcher is that there was no way to know when it was being released. I still caught it relatively soon - 3 hours later - and they were all gone. If you are going to do an exclusive and not let people know when it’s going to drop, a limit might be nice so people can actually get it. Guys who just happened to be on Facebook at the right time are posting their 6 Gazoges. That just seems kind of like poor marketing and customer service.
