Wow. That Gargano looks way off. I know people have complained before but I didn't really think it was bad on some other figures but this is a huge miss.

Take a look at below for ZST trends&analysis (T&A) Series 1 …preorder ends July 2021…original ETA Dec’21-Feb’22 (5-7 months later)…Actually arrives June ‘22, 11 months after preorder JJ…preorder ends Aug 2021…original ETA Feb’22 (6 months later)…Actually arrives Dec ‘22, 16 months after preorder Danhausen…preorder ends Dec’21…original ETA April ‘22-June ‘22 (4-6 months later)…Actually arrives Jan’23, 13 months after preorder Pink Sabu…preorder ends Oct’22…original ETA Late Nov’22/early Dec ‘22 (1-2 months later)…Actually arrives Jan’23, 3 months after preorder Series 2…preorder ends Nov ‘22…original ETA “early ‘23” (2-5 months later)…Actually arrives Oct ‘23, 11 months after preorder Booger…preorder ends July’23…original ETA Sep/Oct ‘23 (2-3 months later)…Actually arrives Oct ‘23, 3 months after preorder *Analysis* -For some of these ETA changed often but the original eta at the time of preorder is what I have listed. -Solo releases Pink Sabu and Booger stuck with their original ETA while solo releases JJ and Danhausen were the two most delayed ZST products. Clearly Sabu was a repaint, and Booger was the latest. -Series 1 and 2 follow virtually identical timelines and “delays” -OMG was in-stock series 3 item -Still awaiting preorders for Todd, Mark, Death match -Remaining Series 3 are expected to be instock orders like OMG Gargano…preorder ends Dec ‘22…original ETA “summer ‘23 (6-8 months later)…Actually arrives April ’24, 16 months after preorder….Same time line as the JJ one off figure.

Glad people finally have gargano in hand but I'm really not a fan. Retros for me have to be older names but I competely agree this onw really seems to emphasise the long arm short leg issue. Great details but not 1 I'd buy. Can't wait for some of the upcoming older names tho

Got 2 Jarretts and 1 Slick from RnRCollectibles. Very happy, that they sold them.

Gargano’s long neck bothers me more than the arms do.

As the figures listed on rockandroll are indicated as preorders - are they going to produce new ones? Confusing. That Jarrett sure looks tempting, but €65 for one figure is just too much, especially as I would have to fork over another €35 for shipping.

If i was a betting man I would say it is because they have not arrived at Rock and Roll HQ yet, "Pre order" just means it will not be shipped out straight away in this scenario.

Still, surprising how regularly these supposedly sold out figs become available again. Not that I'm complaining.

The Henry looks fine. Overall better than mitchs,but unless it comes with Phineas, ill stay with mine. Last time i contemplated and justified a second Henry was the cool repaint in, i believe, bca shotgun series at woolco with the acid washed jean affect, the flag shirt and one of the first yellow chairs. Those things combined, plus the fact that it was like 7 bucks made it okay. A single zombie to canada is over 100 bucks. Todd ran me 108. Had i gotten dinged from customs it would've been another 25..

I'm torn on it, I hate that Zombie's really doesn't look like a Hasbro at all, just another of his dude standing there with his arms to his side. Mitch's at least looked like a Hasbro, but it wasn't one of his best quality wise.

With them all being the same pose and price tag, these are becoming an easy pass. I’ll stick to G&G and Epic unless it’s a character I’m dying to get.

Got my Garganos today, and there was a nice flyer advertising a number of other figures inside. Several of those seem to have arms that are way too long as well as fairly short legs. I'm really interested in that Busick figure, though - certainly an obscure choice, but I'm generally into those. I guess I'd buy an Abe "Knuckleball" Schwartz figure, too.

Any chance you could share a pic of the flyer?
