Well if the club makes Jinx then it will be a classic version. I would be really upset if they repainted a Helix.
your right, I would be shocked if the club made a non arah Jinx and a repainted Helix would suck ass.

according to generaljoes, on the clubs facebook page they stated that the nano bat will come with a damaged torso and a normal one. That's a little bit of good news but the fig is still wack.
i hear you on that eddie. hey i bet major blood will get them just to shoot them up cuse he can blow cash like its water lmao

As I said, even if we were give 12 confirmed names, they're useless (to me) without pictures. I'd rather spend the money on a near-mint condition vintage O-Ring figure than an ugly ME knock-off.
I was pretty committed to the subscription up to this point, and had $300 already set aside for it. Today, though, something happened that I knew was eventually going to happen...I'm now having serious second thoughts about it, and really leaning against buying a subscription. Any enthusiasm I had has died at this point, and thinking about what fun things that money can buy instead....well, The Club officially has an uphill battle to convince me to invest at this point.
ya we need pics cuse they are well know for crappy repaints and Frankensteins they put out. and the 2 they have shown are not that great at all. there is to many unknown factors to this and they seem to want to keep us in the dark . i hope they show us all the figs before we pay. as i hope they dont expect ppl to pay for things we haven't seen yet especially with how much they are charging and you cant pick and chose what you want to buy.
I hear ya bro. I'm having 2nd thoughts as well. I looked it up last night and my Membership ends on Jan 5th. I'm going to have to re-up my $42 plus the $300+ shipping... *sigh*
ok so its not the price but i bet it will be dam close to it. i bet they wanted to see if they could get it but now that ppl are bitching they will lower it and they should.
i will do it as it will be worth it IMO. Plus I don't think they are going to cost as much as a lot of people think. IMO this is a cool thing the club is doing I mean crap they did not have to do anything at all.
It's definitely a cool thing, and I don't doubt it will make a lot of people happy...including, potentially, myself. But "cool" and "costly" are not mutually exclusive descriptions....
I am willing to bet the figures will run around $20 + shipping. That's how much many of their single figures run in their store. Their cancelled CC cost $18, and they didn't have to do any work for that one other than distribution....
no they didnt have to but they are in it to make money and this is just as good as a box set. think about it they lost all the oring molds so now its all 25th. also for how much they can make as they are making you buy all of them at once . you cant pick and chose imo that would make them more money as ppl love to troop build. also not everyone will want all the figs but your stuck with them. its just a huge box set for more money then hasbro would charge. with the club its all about cash man.
we all b!tch when they try and price them at $10 at the big box stores...what makes it okay for them to charge twice that for very sh!tty frankenjoes online?...what, because they're "limited run frankenjoes"
not trying to be a d!ck, but i just don't get the logic in that...or the desire to own cobbled together garbage...

I agree but even saying that, I will prolly jump on there frankenjoes as long as it's under $300 and they have at least 6 that I really want. I will then sell off the rest
like a said, i'll just ebay what i want...and if i can't get them, eh well, they'll most likely be halfa$$ed anyway...just a way for the club to make a quick buck
Well if any of the ones that I don't want, that you do, I'll hook u up. Assuming that they aren't all going to be like the 2 figures shown already. If they are, then I'm not going to even bother.
well thanks for looking out....though it quite likely we'll want the same ones 
trash like Quarel and Nano BAT have no place in my collection...
but agin, cool offer...any you don't want, please, hit me up with an offer, it would be appreciated

this is a guess but i say it will cost between $225 and $275 + shipping for the 12 figures plus 1 free figure. On top of that you have to spend $42 for a year subscription with 12 magazines and the free club figure. So with that you are looking at $267 - $317 plus shipping.
P.S. My subscription ends on 12/5/2011. I usually re up a week before but with this subscription I don't know if I have to re up earlier or what.

No problem! Like you said though, we will prolly want the same ones lol. I've been lurking around the Tank the last week or so and judging by the talk there, it's going to be hard to move Scarlett at decent price. By decent price, I mean making some of my money back. The Nano bat seems like it will be easy to move as there are already several people who claim they want to army build him. Of course, I'm sure there will be several people who don't sign up who will be willing to buy these carded figs on the secondary market so I'm not tripping too much.
I'll keep in touch with you and ones that I don't want. The prices will be nice and scalper worthy
that sounds about right. I really wish it would come out cheaper but if anything, it will be more expensive
mine ends on 1/5/2012

Don't get me wrong i hope this thing will be $200 bucks or less added on to your subscription but i doubt it.
the Rise of Cobra Cobra Commander with drone was $18 bucks and after shipping it was almost $50 bucks (actually it was $26.45 shipped, but damn $8.45 for one figure is a crap load). Anyways maybe this will be the cost for these figures each so $36 a month plus the outrages shipping price the club always charges.
yea man. When I ordered 2 extra carded Dial Tones it was $10 shipping on each one
the more i think about it i bet it is $36 for the 2 figures plus $12 bucks shipping so the total will be $48 for the 2 figures. Break that down it is $24 per figure shipped and that is just under the $25 dollars they said it will not be. so that would be $288 total for 12 figures and 1 free one.

i wouldnt want it any other way
cost plus shipping? not like you have to drive anywhere or waste gas to find them
QFT
yup and they will make a huge profit off this if they get enough ppl to join and pay that. i just dont think that they will have enough ones i want so it wont be worth it for me. as i already dont like the first 2 they posted. i have seen better customs then what the club puts out.
i really like the Quarrel figure not so much the nana bat but that quarrel IMO looks really nice.
$20 seems high given that mattycollector charges $20 for a Four Horsemen sculpted 6" figure. If they charge that much for one 3.75" figure, it'll be a tough sell. And I thought mattel was gouging me...

I'll charge you the club's shipping and my shipping
To be fair, I've seen some customs that are better than half the stuff Hasbro puts out, too....
I'm with Duffman in that I don't think that Quarrel's a bad figure, although I think the Club could have put a little more effort in detailing her.
I'll charge you the club's shipping and my shipping
oh boy...if yer shippings anything like the clubs shipping, it might cost MORE than the whole 13 figure subscription and membership
lol
she just a Scarlett repaint...a figure from 2007...there are way better Scarlett molds since then that they coulda based a Quarrel on...though being a repaint of the 2007 figure will blend in much more nicely with the 25th stuff
They haven't shown anything so far that I'm even remotely interested in, so I'll pass. The cost is another turnoff. Even if it is a smaller production run.
