Well if you missed Conan the first time around, you probably won’t want to miss this one. The boots are also a new sculpt to better match with the soft goods. the heads on the barbarian booster pack seem to be re-used from KGBeast and Bends. But the amount of weapons and soft goods justifies the price. Screaming helmeted head also is a nice touch. This one feels less Frazetta and more Roy Thomas Conan.

Conan is... mind-blowing. I'm still bouncing in my chair here. The Booster Pack is less so, and other than the tan-colored tunic, nothing really stands out to me as something I haven't seen accomplished better elsewhere.

But Conan... Oh, God I think I need another one...

I didn't even pick up that those heads were reused.

I still haven't gotten the first one

Okay, to be fair, Mezco started shipping it out last year; it’s just that my retailer hasn’t gotten in it yet. Still, kind of funny to see this one going up.

Anyways, I'll pass on this; one Conan is enough for me. But please Mezco, more Sword & Sorcery figures!

Since they are doing a blue tunic I wish they would have done a more Buscema looking head sculpt. The only one I like here is the helmeted one.

Anyhow definitely ordering this if it'll be up on BBTS.

It's an exclusive, so it may go up at a higher price.

There's enough options here to justify a 2nd Conan for me. The OG Mezco Conan is one of my favorite figures, so I was kinda hoping they'd do another one. The helmeted head is soooo good.

Yeah this is a pretty packed release, not so much reuse at all aside from the body.

Good idea on the Buscema head. Though, the body might be too ripped to accurately represent a Buscema Conan but then again, the body is a bit too ripped for a Frazetta Conan too,imo.
