You know the feeling when you want quote everybody but it would take up too much space?

Pre-ordered! I wanted that Gomez style ever since I saw the 3.75" fig. Very pleased to see it.

For weapons packs check out ONE12SHOP.com . They do work with Mezco and make a lot of custom stuff. I have yet to see Gomez centric stuff *EDIT: There is Gomez centric stuff now apparently!

It would be nice to go back to the non-bundle thing...I think it has to do with demand vs delivery. I don't know if Mezco is capable of making enough to meet the demand. So they increase the price to compensate, and instead of adding nothing for the up cost, they add all the swag to fill the void. Just a guess.
If that were true and there was no way around it. I'd prefer more accessories, heads, etc. specifically for the figure. Hell, they could be reuses from other Mezco figs, I don't care, just add stuff for the fig, not myself.

I don't buy clothes and pins for myself. I buy them for my figs.

The Gomez world is really cool. They could use the up cost to fill out the scarce landscape right now. If I want a pin or shirt I could order it separate.
I almost thought I'd pass on this release before I saw it because of all the merch. I'm sorry Mezco, I don't want it, straight up. I wouldn't be thinking that if I knew it would be all fig centric. If I have to pay more because it's the only way, and it's at least all about the fig, I'll feel much better about the price. I'm a huge fan and will make the necessary financial sacrifices.
