I'm seriously considering getting that Gargano figure, the Carnage design is awesome. Will have to see how much it will be posted to the UK, but as long as it's under £30 I think I'm a player on this.

I'm hoping I get get an Adam Bomb without having to buy a full set, but I don't know what the shipping to the UK is. Anyone from over here ordered the first set and can let us know? |

There is one key difference -- Aldis, Page, Danhausen never had a figure made by a major company.
Gargano had extensive Mattel releases...
I don’t know if I’d call 7 figures (3 of which were retailer exclusives and one of which is a chase variant of another) extensive, but we’ll see. I don’t think Gargano will be the hottest seller in history or anything like that, but I think they’ll move through their whole inventory relatively briskly. Yeah,I don't think they are worried about him not selling. If you add Gargano's popularity, most likely not gonna be getting any new figs for a while and a really well liked attire of a huge Marvel character. You gotta imagine this will do just fine,hopefully we'll get couple more Marvel attires down the road |

You gotta imagine this will do just fine,hopefully we'll get couple more Marvel attires down the road I agree that Gargano will sell pretty quickly. I'm not saying in minutes, but he has a big fan base and it's a great choice on the attire which has crossover appeal. His Mattel's did really well, to the point I never seen one in any of my stores despite him being in a regular wave of Elite's (I'm not talking basics, but they did do some great colourful gear and they shifted quickly too). It's a good signing for the line, and hopefully a good sign for future potential figures. To the original poster saying Aldis never had any figures, he had a couple Jakks TNA ones so it's not his first go around. |

Did The Figure Four Series 1 Bendies sell out?
Boys have been quiet about that…

Now whether that's the full allotment they have left (outside if the ones they separately bring to gimmick tables) I have no idea. |

Any idea what the “second launch” thing is?

Hypothetically if it’s the same inventory you could get to a point where there’s a combined amount of say 10,if they’re sold on the website and sold in person there wouldn’t be the inventory to meet the sales Also a while back they said on their insta “last few sets left”. Maybe they’ve been taking marketing tips from me of their pals? Just went back to check, on their post of vlad they said “very limited quantities left” - not sure what starting amount was? |

Yes, should have been clearer. It's separate from their in-person inventories. I'm saying I'm not sure if the allotment on the site is the final allotment, or if there could be another drop when these ones sell out (though I'd wager not). I believe the initial starting amount was 1000 sets. |

Ah cool with you now, think I misunderstood 👍 Tbf if they only have 70-odd left that’s a huge success imo considering it’s a niche line and they had to be sold full sets. I think they deserve a well done on that, your talking around 92% sold Also they were in hand by the guys before they went up for sale which again I applaud. |

They're really cool figures -- I hope they did well!

That’s a bit of a disappointing reveal personally considering how cool series 2 was

That’s a bit of a disappointing reveal personally considering how cool series 2 was It's all relative I guess. I'm more excited about a Cabana than I am anyone in Series 2 outside of maybe Pillman. (And I like the S2 lineup). Assuming that S3 has the same lineup structure to S2, I would assume we'll get a second "modern/Indy" guy to go with Canaba and then 2 Legends/Bendems-era guys. Maybe Candido, possibly in Skip gear? Also, surprised no one mentioned this, on last week's MajorPod while talking about Powertown contract stuff, they dropped some contract info about various companies (throwing this info in all the relevant threads): According to the podcast (and obviously I'm not speaking to the validity of these): -Major Bendems Deals are for 2 years of exclusivity for Bendie style figures only. -Zombies are (were?) one year exclusivity for Retro style figures only. The whole convo is pretty interesting, touching on estates and people who've had amendments in to negate the lifetime stuff. |

I know cabana is huge and has been for ages and pioneered the wrestling podcast thing. Just never been into him personally. I’m into those which fit in the new gen / original bendies era - JJ, Bomb etc |

I actually really like the Major guys -- and even if you don't, they put a TON of love and work into their live shows. So was a bummer to see this -- I really hope they can sell tickets.
