Good lord.

I'm just pointing out how it doesn't make sense, that is all.

Also while the color on this figure does match up with the animated look, nowhere does it say this is meant to be the "animated" version of the character. Also I'm sure they want the VHS packages to stay relatively the same sizes to each other and this would have come in an oversized VHS case.

It's animated because that's his animated coloring. In the comics, Apocalypse is all blue, not purple and blue.

Frankly I can't wait to get 2 of these, as I had the original Apocalypse carded figure and this hits all my nostalgia points.

But that Apocalypse toy was all blue...

Anyway, I think the new body and face looks fantastic. Not to mention the gun accessory with the effects. I kind of want him, I just don't know if I want him in those colors. I'll probably at least preorder him just in case though.
