Oh man.

Oh man.

Ordered!

He seems to resemble General Zod from Man of Steel lol... with longer hair of course...

Wow, that looks pretty damn awesome. If I had the money to spare, I would totally get him. I hope they do a Thoth-Amon.

Got him... Can't wait for that Savage Avengers team!

Is that thak figure something that they have already released? http://www.pinterest.com/pin/68398488067394197/

I see a lot of people griping elsewhere about the face. I like that they went with the Frazetta style, and with some of the other included accessories I'm getting a comic vibe that reminds me of some old Savage Sword of Conan covers and some of the art from the Busiek/Nord comic run from the early 2000's. Can't wait to see what the box art looks like.

I love the Frazetta look they went with- bigger fan of that than the Windsor-Smith look that Super7 is doing. If they did a ken kelly style (my personal favorite) as a PX exclusive I would probably buy that one also!

He is amazing. But I preordered the Keaton Batman, that is my extreme high end purchase for a bit. Side note, I get the price on most of these, they are hot toys at 6 inch scale. But this guy is all plastic, save the loin clothe and cape. The $90 price tag seems a bit high.

I'm very happy they decided to move this forward from the initially announced 2021 release, this is the figure I was most excited to get from Mezco.

And I definitely can’t complain about the figure or the accessories - it's an amazing package.

The one thing I would’ve liked to see and that would’ve elevated this release even further - in the promotional pictures Conan is fighting against what appears to be the Mezco King Kong of Skull Island figure with a new head, as a stand-in for a generic ape-like beast.

Now, it would’ve been awesome if that new head was included with Conan. With an extra bloody, separated neck piece so those who don’t have the Kong figure can display Conan triumphantly holding the slain beast’s head, those who do have Kong can pop the head on that figure to have a monster for the barbarian to fight.

I plan to pitch Conan against Kong regardless but that would’ve been a neat thing to include IMO.

No they haven't released a Conan before.

I don't disagree, but I guess also you have to think that this is a totally new sculpted body they won't use for anything besides Conan most likely. I'm sure we'll get 2-3 variants over time using this body like Popeye. Also looks like they're painting the whole body.

Good call, that would've been a fun and cool inclusion had they done it.

Thats not a generic ape, that's Thak, a Conan adversary from the books. That image homages a famous Frazetta Conan cover. That's an awesome idea with the head, btw.

I actually kinda wonder if they won't release an exclusive 're-tooled Kong figure' in the future. I'm putting my pennies aside already... :D

Sorry, I'm not very familiar with the books or Frazetta's work to be honest. The books however I will try, that I have decided to do before this figure comes out :)

I would buy it. Don’t know if there’s a market for it however. As an exclusive release of some kind maybe?

I could see that being in a double pack with another Conan as an exclusive or something.

That's not King Kong, that's the gorilla dude from Rogues in the House.

It is the King Kong figure though.

Oh Yeah! Give the big monkey a cape and a spear... we're good to go! (Monkey sounds funnier than ape... just go with it)

"CURSE YOU, CONAN!!!!!!!" **flings poo, blinding Conan, then stabs him through with the spear**

Ordered! Thrilled with how this is shaping up

I can't even explain how happy this release makes me. I'd love to see a Red Sonja or King Kull as well.

Not a fan of the head sculpt, easy pass.

love the looks, love the accesories, love the character, but my wallet doesnt like that, so...im going to wait until see the reviews

I appreciate all the unique sculpting and honestly the amount of skin paint kinda makes the price justified to me. I've never noted but I'm impressed with the knees engineering to make them look as seamless as possible which makes the elbows even more disappointing that they went with those limited and ugly Joker buck type elbows.

What is this based on? Is it a comic?
