Chief Carnivus Has Arrived! Official Talkback, now that he's in hand

[KingRondor]

Chief Carnivus has got to have the stupidest name i have ever heard...Carnivus Fervius...why not call him Coughing up Furballs.

[Staff Of Ka]

My Carny just arrived. He is really sweet.


You could probable take a hair dryer and warm up belt area enough to loosen the glue to pry the buckle off, then reposition it. It is an easy fix.

Great Idea,I dont have a hair dryer, but I will borrow a freinds! Thanks so much! will update with results!

While I find fake Latin annoying, I still don't find it as bad as some of the other names.

[Zargon]

Got mine yesterday (Sept 21)!

I got Carnivus yesterday and I have to say he is a welcome addition to my collection. Although he does not have the nostalgia factor, it is kinda cool to see a universe which I loved as a kid is still expanding.

[TriKlops295]

Got him today.

The figure is ok at best. I still feel the colors on him are a bit bland and not bold enough (red is darker than I would have liked, as is the blue on his furry shorts). Also, I feel it's unecessary for the cape to NOT be attached to the chest piece...it makes for an awkward setup when trying to pose him as the cape constantly moves off from the circle being centered under his neck. Plus the "more snake-like than cat-like" belt buckle? Ugh. The only pro I have so far is the head sculpt. That's it.

I'm really pretty disappointed overall with CC, to be honest. He's the first big letdown I've had so far, and I'm very surprised at how many people are actually satisfied with him. What I'm most upset about though is this...







This may be the first figure I send back to get replaced as I'm having a difficult time standing him up.

edit - wow, even more problems...awesome.



The paint on the sword handle is chipping off after placing and removing from the figure's hand ONCE. Geez, this is ridiculous.

This is the first figure that I got in the sub that I really didn't care for at all. Now that I have him - I still feel the same way. Oh well, congrats to those who really wanted him.

[fball13z]

im still surprised at how many people just dont like CC, I LOVE HIM, but to each their own i guess.

[Jedi_Master_Jeremy]

I got one with a messed up foot like the one Rainboy pictured above. I can't understand how stuff like that slips thru the cracks with Mattel or how this can be overlooked. I like the figure but honestly I'm more about Gygor now that he's shown up here than I am CC. My son went bananna's over Gygor but looked at Carnivus and said, "ya, that's nice."

I you feel the colors are a bit bland and not bold enough. Than you must have hated the figure Optikk. That's by far the most bland and boring figure yet in my opinion. Especially w/ that ridiculous and cheesy sticker. Chief Carnivous has a better sculpt,better paint scheme, and his details are really great. I'm not a loose collector. But, I think you should absolutely return him w/ those problems. That shouldn't happen when paying what we do for these figs.

[kagamigod]

I know I was getting him and was rather optimistic about it, but once I actually had him in hand I look at him once, put him down and never looked at it again. Something about him just doesn't really click with me. Anyone else kinda feel the same?
