I understand what you want, but we probably don't actually want a 12" FSS that the Club produced. They make neat 12" product, but they don't have enough demand to invest in making an entire subscription of quality product. We would end up with product that had numerous features, accessories and parts cost cut out that we wouldn't be happy with the final product. To be very honest, the Club cost cuts the 4" line so much that instead of getting definitive versions of figures, we get retooled vintage heads, reused heads from new sculpt figures, reused modern heads, badly matched figure builds, we end up with some very questionable and low budget product. We were all really thrilled at the chance to get the first FSS and even though many of the figures were sub par, we expected that by supporting the FSS, then the Club would invest more in the next and the figures would be better. The figures on the whole didn't get better though. The Club follows the business model now as it did for the first FSS, the same formula for building figures and cost cutting what they mistakenly think are not important features (like new head sculpts for unique characters). With that in mind would you really want to support a 12" FSS?

This is exactly why I have never bought into the fss or club figures at all, why I resent key core characters being released ONLY in this format. we all need a Dialtone, he is a hounded bucks because he is from this system, and the figure doesn't even appear to be THAT good. That is just one example but there are many, MANY. |
