OK, looking at Spawn.com - I see they are showing two versions of Zera:

Usually when you order from SpawnToys, you receive the uncensored versions and have to track downt he censored. In the case of the Conan 2 line, they decided not to make the uncensroed version at all.
Is that the case with this figure or is there actually a uncensored one I need to go looking for?
and to follow up - if it is the case where two versions do exist - anyone able to help me out finding the non-puritan version? [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
You know - just answered my own question.
looking at SpawnToys - there is this following explaination:
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">After reading that - I am almost pissed.Quote:
PLEASE NOTE: The manufacturer's website depicts the Zera figure with and without a shroud or scarf like piece over her chest area. McFarlane toys has confirmed that both versions DO exist. They version WITHOUT the scarf/shroud were randomly inserted in the Spawn series 29 toy cases. There are NOT mass market vs specialty market cases. There was ONLY one case assortment produced. We have not found ANY of the version WITHOUT the shroud/scarf in any of our cases to date
Look like the Chase figure has now been introduced into the regular Spawn Lines.
so S29 isnt out yet? I still have to finish getting a couple of dragons, so what have I missed in the last month or so?
S29 came out a couple of weeks ago actually. I had my order from SapwnToys last week, and seen the remnants of S29 at SunCoast.
I have both versions of Zera. Initially, the uncensored version was only showing up overseas, but not in the US. Online retailers were FUCKING PISSED because all they were getting in were the censored versions, which is usually NOT the case. However, uncensored Zera has randomly been showing up in stores across the US in the last couple of weeks. I found mine at Suncoast, as did most people who I've heard have found her.
yeah - I'd figured SunCoast would have gotten it if anyone, but since we only have 1 SunCoast in the area left, and they have come and gone [img]frown.gif[/img]
Well, ebay - here I come I guess
all three Suncoast near here are gone, the KBs are gone, Walmart carries nothing but crap and TRU are slow to get anything in. I'll have to save a little and get them from Kim hopefully before the next line is out.
What line of Dragons are we up to?
I haven't been following the Dragons line at all...just one of those things that have never interested me. But I'm guessing it's maybe at series 3...?
...and I don't mind going to Ebay for variants once in awhile. sure, it always costs more, but I figure I end up spending the difference on gas trying to find the fucking thing on my own [img]mad.gif[/img]
I've been slowly picking up S-29
I first saw them at KB (@ $15 each)
picked up censored Zera & Thamuz
Today I hit up TRU & picked up (@ $10.00 each)
Man of Miracles & the Deciple
(these were 2 of 3 figures left on the pegs at TRU)
I hear uncensored Zera shows at TRU, btw~
Also picked up the newest Spawn comic-pretty cool-
gotta start the back issue thing with these guys, me thinks~

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">unfortunately, not entirely true. The rubber piece is glued to her chest and removing it rips the paint off her boobies. same thing for the extra piece on her bum bum. so yeah, you could remove it, but then you'd have to do some customizing / touch up.Quote:

Hey -mega.....you read your PM....and ????????
So what's the dilly-o?
Haven't seen a single ser29 on the pegs here.
and the only place I could find the pg-13 Zera was the spawn store, which are long since sold out.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Are you talking about Zenobia (sp)? I thought there was a censored version. She was never made? Damn I could swear I saw people doing customs 'cause they found the censored one. [img]confused.gif[/img]Quote:

I found all s29 at a few TRU's. All had uncensored Zera. Even the highly sought after [img]graemlins/sure.gif[/img] Man of Miracles was there in numbers.
Yeah - Zenobia. Although now that I look back, there was a censored version only (that stupid gold bra thing).
I gave in quickly and found one at about the same price as it would have been for me to buy it with tax here, so much the better then - once it arrives that's that. [img]smile.gif[/img]

found the one without the breast covering tonight at TRU
Cool Chaser! I just paid for mine via paypal, that count? [img]wink.gif[/img]
I just don't get time to go out and hunt anymore. I think I've only been able to go out looking for figures once this year so far. At the end of my day I am too tired to think about heading out to all the places and hunt. Plus with all the TRUs and SunCoasts that have closed down recently, nothing is as easy anymore.
yeah, I havent been out for quite a while. sucks with all the closings. does make things harder. hell I remember when you used to have so many stores to hit you found everything.
Yeah - there used to be tons around here.
Within an hour in any direction, we at one time had 6 TRUs, 3 SunCoasts, 4 Sam Goodies, 3 Media PLays, 4 Spencers, 6 Game Stops, 6 Targets, 3 K-Marts, 6 KB Toys, 10 Walmarts, and 5 comic shops (and I am sure I forgetting something.)
All Media Plays, and Samgoogy's have closed, and all but one SunCoast. All but 1 of the KBToys has shut, and there are 3 TRUs left, but too far to make them all in one day. We are going to have another couple of WalMarts in the next year, but they have all been pretty much worthless for action figures as they don't stock them much around here any more if you aren't into Power Rangers and wrestling figures.
None of the Game Stops carry figures anymore, and there is only one Spencer's left. The comics shops are pretty much a hard time to find anything decent in price (as they are marking up to make up the loss on comic sales I guess).
I have for the most part given into ordering from online r just hitting eBay.
sad stuff. nothing like walking into a store and finding something you didnt expect.
As usual, found all the S29s at TRU. And the Zeras they and were the uncensored ones. The only fig in the line I did not buy was Thalmuz (?). Been a while since I have gotten this many from one line.
feels good doesnt it
Crap shopping days here. I can't remember the last time we went out hunting, and actually found something.
Maybe it was the FF super skrull? Or the 12" rotocast green goblin?
And still no damned sign of the 12" POTC figures!
There's nowhere to buy toys around here within 2 hours, so I've pretty much given up.
DVDs are mostly my bag now.
I will make the necessary trips for some of SOTA's upcoming stuff, though.

I bought the censored version yesterday (along with Ninja Spawn) and tought I could easely remove it...
I was a little pised when I saw if was glued... as for my customizing skills, it's zero... so I guess I'll keep her like that...
