Or, at least that was the size of the bag the EB Games guy gave me, which I thought was overly large, even with the 3 clamshells and 1 backer card, and difficult to carry around the mall.
I got up early today and got in the mall at around 10:00. I made the first purchases in the entire place, I believe, since I stood outside EB's gate until they opened it up.
The figure shelves at EB and Software, Etc. were ravaged. I was lucky to find what I went there looking for. Spencer's had a piss-poor toy selection, but with a sh*tload of 18" Pinheads and Chatterers. And amazingly, these things haven't went on clearance there yet. I also saw the NECA 18" Freddy, which actually looked quite good.
Today, I got:
2x Refresh alien warriors.
1 Predator the Hunter.
And a great figure: A WWII German soldier made by Plan B Toys for $4.99. [img]eek.gif[/img]
Now, this should be an example to McFarlane of how to integrate excellent sculpting with a lot of articulation for a regular human figure.

I bought the last of the Warriors, and one Hunter was left after I bought mine. A couple Alien Aliens were there on the pegs.
Jeez, I'm assuming the mall only got them in maybe Monday or Tuesday.
The Warrior is extremely cool, but it would have been perfect if McFarlane had taken the time to fully create a 100% Aliens warrior.
I like the accessories that came with the Predator. The skull is awesome. And did anyone notice that McFarlane resculpted many of the body parts? I noticed most of the entire face is now better than the MM6 version, and they sculpted the detail where the Predator removed his medikit on his back.
Can't help but knowing I'm running out of room fast on my shelves, though. Pretty soon, I'm going to have to start taking my books off a shelf and put figures there.

Saw a whole slew of the military guys at GameStop 2 weeks ago. Very nice, some were in winter gear, others were tank soldiers. IF I start buying them, I would start getting them all, so I didnt get any. [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]
