if you buy the CC Accessory pack, you get his 6-guns...

I read this in Peeker's complaint thread... When was it confirmed? (I stay away from the white board) If this is true, I'm really gonna have a bone to pick.

Lets hear it for the 'collectors club', or in other words its 'McFarlane collects your money for his bank club!'

They sure wouldn't release their sports figures without bats, hockey sticks, footballs and bases now would they. [img]graemlins/wonder.gif[/img]

TCM Hitchhiker, if they had to do that to the Sport figures, do you think they would want a repeat of the LA riots to follow? [img]wink.gif[/img]

oh well, can complain all you want, but I want them all and the accessory pack.

Well, this particular deal doesn't bother me, because, well, I have a Billy the Kid figure, that is actually Billy the Kid, looks just like the real Billy the Kid, and is not some generic cowboy figure called Billy the Kid, so I won't even be buying him. But yeah, even if I wanted a generic cowboy, with no guns, he is more like Garth Brooks or something. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

I do however think McToys are going way overboard with all the CC acc packs. They are a cool thing if they come with extra stuff, but if it is the only way to get essential stuff, it is complete bullshit.

I agree it should be for extras, not the things that should come with the fig origionally

I say, don't show the fig with all the accessories, then later say, well you need to buy something extra to get it the way we showed it.

Of course, I'll geek out and buy a couple of accessory packs anyways. Why I want to pin one of them to my wall is beyond me. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Exactly, they should'nt be including essential stuff in the packs. Just like extra rifles or something. I would love to see them pull something like this with the SPs. Heh...

What the hell kind of good does a cowboy figure do you if you can't get his guns?

Weird man, mine looks great. I have him in the pose he is in, in the famous Billy pic, and it looks so cool. I have Wyatt and Doc as well, and they are wonderful too.

Well, whether the McFarlane fig. is accurate or not, I still think it looks badass.
