Well, I couldn't make up my mind, so I ended up ordering the color one as well. I hope these look as good in person. Also, why have we not seeing any packaging pics. I hope that for these prices that the color and black and white version have different graphics. Even if it is just the color.

Oh, didn't you hear? These don't have any packaging. They are mailed out in plain brown wrappers (like porn mags...not that I'd  know.

If I had a glass case. Too much stuff to have things in glass cases.

These things are a bargain at $69.99 (Ikea). Just bought another one for mask display which they are great for. I've seen pics of people using them for figures too. They can actually save space since they have a small footprint. Can't beat the price and they look very professional. Just make sure you have someone around when you assemble. It requires 2 people.

These are nice, Glenn. Do you know if they are completely dust proof? We have glass cases that leave our stuff covered in dust.

No, they aren't but you could make them dust proof with some adhesive backed foam weather stripping around the door seams.

They look BETTER.  I have every figure released so far...four different Dark Knight Returns Batmans,  three Judge Dredds, two Mr. Spocks and Mr. Sulu.

They are INSANELY well made and just beautiful to behold in person. I still can't believe they're only 6" figures when I look at them. They have better sculpts. paint, and tailoring than Sideshow's early 12" figures. They are that good.

They won't work for half my stuff. Godzilla stuff with long tails especially. ;D I would actually need a room that is one big glass case. ;D

Are you at liberty to answer Mord's previous question about the color Frankenstein grimacing face and extra hands? Are they also color or Black and White? Hard to tell from Previews and no information online as yet.

As well as Anton's questions that would be good to hear the answer to can you tell us if the latest color Frankenstein picture (the one earlier in this thread with the white background), is the PX previews one or maybe a Mezco direct version?

Really do love this series and Mezco have certainly been busy with them judging by all the SDCC pictures I've seen today of the new ones to come.
