Sunglasses did look removeable. It was hard to get a good picture of Buff. There's also two Jeff Jarrett on display that I totally missed until I looped back through. Like Retro JJ figures, or BCA style? BCA style |

Thanks for the update! Will we be able to pre-order Vlad with the guardrail once it gets closer to production? Vlad will come with a guard rail accessory if you pre-order before its in stock, guaranteed! We're working to finalize the packaging and should have more updates on Vlad very soon. I really like the preorder early bird discount. It does make me feel better about having to wait. It's not much money but it's a great goodwill gesture Thanks! I know pre-orders are a bummer, so trying to add some value on the collector's end! Colt doesn't look too bad, tbh. These figures actually look better than I expected. I'll definitely be getting the Patriot. Didn't somebody else have him lined up? Our goal's to be better with every release. If you look at the evolution of our figures so far it shows. Someone else did have the Patriot lined up, but the family/estate of Del Wilkes had no involvement and was not aware. If any other products for Patriot pop up outside of FC Toys, they're not licensed by the family/estate. Patriot looks great, I'll definitely be buying that (not sure if this is a prototype with plans to articulate the arm, or if it will be permanently posed that way, but it looks like a solid figure will likely be buying a couple of Colts too, that looks like a good figure I'm somewhat disappointed with the Buff, I didn't like the arms from the concept art, but seeing that figure doesn't make me feel like it's worth investing in Patriot's arm will have the articulation at the elbow and will be resized to the correct 4.5 inch size. Buff and Patriot's height were a little taller, so we're correcting that before the mold process. With the 'retro' style, there's only so many poses. Buff's double bicep pose is one that is synonymous with him so it made sense to try something different with him. I hope we can win you over with the final product! Thanks for the pics! They look good, not sure which Colt I’ll wanna get. Buff has the same legs as Effy, which is totally fine to me and a smart move. Still looks like a prototype, hopefully it’ll polish up a bit Patriot will be a great addition Buff's legs are actually different than Effy's. I guess, the design concept is the same, but they won't be the same molds. Excited for Patriot and Buff! Like others said though they could both use some adjustments. I like Buff w/the glasses so that's cool, don't think I need the other head. And I hope they articulate the arm on Patriot, doesn't need to swivele up like the Mattels, just so the elbow bends like the Hasbros did. And could we get that Ultiomo Dragon, Macho and Glacier as Retros PLEASE? Buff will come with removable glasses and hat. For prototype purposes, we did one with molded and one without molded glasses. Buff will be like our BCW Macho Man, with indentations that will allow the glasses to stay in place or be removed, and covered by painted hair color so it won't be distracting if you take them off. --- Squared Circle Expo was a blast, thanks to everyone from wfigs that stopped by and said hello! All the feedback has been great and the constructive feedback very helpful! |

Thanks for all of the updates! I am SO excited for the Patriot and Buff! I may need to buy two of each so I can make the Stars and Stripes tag team!

I appreciate the response, and quite like how you did respond to multiple posts directly, so kudos for celebrating open discussion!
I'll keep an eye out for Buff, the way you delivered with Headbangers doesn't make me think it will be a "bad" figure, just gonna have to check if the finished product is enough to make me wanna buy one - good luck though, you're definitely bringing out some solid figures right now |

I was a bit skeptical about some of the recent figures but really like that Jack has come on to clear some things up. This is a very promising line.

When will Cabana, Buff and Patriot go up for order? I was sceptical about Effy and Chioda at first, but after having seen the new ones I want them all. As getting them to Germany is a right kerfuffle, I'd like to order them all together, though.

I've ordered from them before, thanks. Shipping and taxes are fairly expensive, though, so I would love to order everything in one go. |

looking forward to a Colt figure now, at first I thought their artwork would lead to a crapfigure, but the final product looks MUCH better than initial designs, so I am definitely buying one now I've seen what it looks like and am happy to

Based on their IG story, Colt is in and should be for sale soon.
They’re also saying a 4th unannounced figure should be ready soon and it’ll be on everyone’s want list…. Any guess?

From what I was told, two versions arrived in stock and he was waiting on the third. Once everything is checked over, they will go on sale!
Also, his next reveal should be exciting for many!

I picked up the red singlet. Received an email saying my package has been shipped. Probably just the label creation, but, this is exciting!
