They put pink skulls on Gomez bodies and added some accessories. They made them available as a 3 pack only. People ended up spending $225 for 3 identical figures. So I passed on those. Which brings us to Baron Bends. Now this is more like what I expect from a One:12 figure. Whereas the Pink Skulls seemed like a way for Mezco to get rid extra stock, Baron Bends is completely new. It looks like some thought was put into him. That’s why I pulled the trigger this morning and ordered one. It’s the first figure in the Gomez line I’ve picked up. I liked the figure and all the accessories but what put this figure over the top for me was the Cthulhu/ Predator head. The figure also comes with a t-shirt and some other stuff to help justify the $112 price. After watching a review for Baron Bends online I’m really looking forward to adding him to my collection.

I can sympathize with most of this, I grabbed Baron too! I love the Joe Style tubes and Such, most got 10$ off the figure as well, And he is in stock which means he was prob a comic con exclusive. Should be shipping soon!
