[QUOTE="Crumm, post: 505431, member: 9756"] I just took the pre-order plunge with these (Thanks for the link Palifan). I missed the boat with The Vintage Collection and even they are quite expensive now. I can have all 6 of these for the cost of one of the more popular Vintage Collection figures (I also prefer the original sculpts). These are ideal for me really, I have a small and growing vintage loose collection. I can understand how some of the purist guys may hate these, and it is all well and good for the guys who got their MOC's while they were still somewhat affordable, or have plenty of expendable income. But I could never even hope to own [b][u]any[/u][/b] of the first 12 on their original cards, so this gives me a nice alternative which fills me with nostalgia, and I do think they look good (apart from the big red sticker, but I can live with that). I can put the loose collection on hold for a bit, collect these, and then go back to loose later on. These are very easy to distinguish from genuine vintage, so people trying to pass them off as genuine certainly shouldn't be a problem. I will definitely get the first 12, and then see where it goes from there, if I decide I don't want to keep them I am pretty sure I will have no trouble moving them on. I will write a review and let you guys know what I think when I have them in hand. [/QUOTE]
