Yeah definitely, I didn't even know we were getting these shots today...
Jack 'n Liz are my top 2 choices so far, but I'll most likely buy the set. Which I rarely do!

I just noticed that candle in the window. That's a great touch !
Thre reasoning behind the left leg from Jon Goff
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The reason is...
You (and I'm speaking in general terms here,a s in you = everybody) have no idea if he had a club foot or not. You have no idea what he looked like. Nobody does. You can guess, but in the end there is no definitive answer as to who Jack the Ripper was. Could we have made him exactly as everyone would have expected? Sure, but that is what other people see and it has been done before - on television, in comics, in movies, etc. We were going for something a little bit different.
I for one (and this has nothing to do with me working here and everything to do with being a fan of action figures) think we nailed it. The face. The clothes. The bag. The instruments of DOOM. The pose. Great figure. Great line.
Damn the whole line is cool, a little less cool than I expected, actually, but, I expected alot [img]wink.gif[/img]
Jack is good, for a basis, I would have preferred a kind of "socialite" rrich old guy, as opposed to the crayz tubby guy, but still ok, I can tell with Rasputin and jack, they have to throw in some sort of "mechanical torture" [img]tongue.gif[/img]
So, Im definately getting most if not all of the line, but, definately fixing Jack
Rasputin, Vlad, Billy The Kid and Attila are wicked-cool, mainly cause I think cool guys with weapons are cool [img]tongue.gif[/img] But, they're also figure you wouldn't expect to see, and they're also, people, mind you, Rasputin does have the back hanging thing, otherwise, they're all, to some extent, people, which is cool, definately to see normal human-looking charcters, done by mcFarlane, which aren't based fully on likenesses or anything
Maybe the wonky foot is a good cover, no one suspecting him as a killer. And maybe so many ladies laughed at his funky nub so often as to add to his motives to start slashing. Interchangable leg would be nice, but I'm still getting this guy.
