Okay, I am on the fence about joining CC. Out of all the Con sets, (Vipers, Dreadnoks) is the Red Shadows set well worth paying $42 + $300 ish for non-atendee?
I really like the set, but with s&h to get this set will cost me close to $400 :(. Do any of you Tankers think this set will be a good set down the road? Not talking about investment wise, but a cool piece to have in your Joe collection? |

I think it really depends on what you like. Honestly, this is the first con set I'm buying. Before I knew what it was I was just buying it because I was going to the con, now that I know what it is, I'm very happy that I decided to buy it because I really like the Red Shadows. I had already made o-ring customs of most of the original Red Shadow figures so I'm excited to get official ones now.
Like I said, it all depends on what you like, for me, the $300 was well worth it and I don't regret it at all. Last edited by Shogi; 03-11-2010 at 11:47 AM.. |

So you are going to the con? Is the set a little cheaper if your going to the con? Ireally like the set, I like the Flint figure and really like the RS army builder figures.

The set is not something I have any real interest in. I can't stand the look of the Red Shadows (I'm probably the only one that thinks using the original head mold is a mistake, they're UGLY). So for me it's not worth it.

The only way you can get the set cheaper is if you buy the bagged set ($175) but you have to buy a boxed set in order to buy a bagged set (or find someone who's willing to sell you a bagged set at cost) |

No for me. If they were not O-ring I would be tempted but then the price would probably hold me back
That said I will probably still get at least some of the action team figures Last edited by Moses; 03-11-2010 at 12:06 PM.. |
