Gimp is only figure I'd buy from this the rest just look so blah to me. No offence to those that seem to love this type of fig but I just don't understand the thought behind paying 10-12 bucks for a figure that has less articulation than the mos figs.

Strange, that Marcellus Wallace figure does not look like a bitch...

No offense, but why would you buy the Gimp figure of all ReAction figures if you don't get why people love these things? I know you're not trying to be offensive, and I'm not trying to be a dick, I just find that funny.

Retro figures are cool. I understand why someone would not be into them, but the appeal is pretty obvious. These are more little pieces of art, a reminder of the 80's, much like most of Funko's stuff is. As someone who can't muster the imagination to play with my toys anymore, I find myself wanting something that might look cool on the shelf or that just reminds me of stuff I enjoy. Articulation is nice, but honestly sometimes it gets to be too much, and how much articulation to you need when it's on a shelf? Not that I prefer 5 POA, but these are based on really cool properties, and that's the pull.

I'm still waiting, hoping, praying for an RJ MacReady from The Thing in this line. I suppose I could just buy a Snake Plissken and turn the eyepatch into sunglasses.

Its different and thats why I'll keep one mixed some where amongst my figures and I know a couple people that I can gift them to. I would buy them up with elbow and knee articulation.

I just hope that we don't get another repeat of the Mezco Breaking Bad fiasco when some mom inevitably spots the Gimp while shopping at TrU :p !
Any news if he'll be an exclusive, or maybe omitted from the cases that go to certain stores, like TrU ?
