    No kidding! You would think they would get somebody who isn't so completely incompetent when it comes to showing off the figure. It doesn't take any time to get them in a cool pose and snap a couple of pics. They really make him look like a turd though with his blaster pointed to the side and his little lizard friend falling off his neck.

    Got my Khan and while I love him (and how fast he arrived!), he's got a very noticable stress crack under his neck at the top where his center scales end. I started another thread to give a heads up to folks in case this turns out to be a widespread issue... his torso feels like it's made out of a thinner plastic than the others', which might make headswapping something you might want to take extra care while doing. He's got great paint apps, everything about this figure minus this stress mark rocks. Though I guess my only other gripe is that the hooded head does have a pretty bad indentation on one side from where it was rubber-banded into place within the plastic bubble (wish they would stop using these bands altogether!!!).

    Got mine this afternoon from UPS. I think this is about the quickest I've gotten one.

    Anyway, not seeing any neck issues, and the elbow thing doesn't bother me at all.

    Very nice pics. Could you please share how did you manage to attach the two additional snakes to King Hsss? I would like to do this myself. That is exactly the treatment King Hsss needs. The sculpt itself is perfect, but more snakes are way better. Thanks.

    Those AFI pics make him look so dark and dirty looking with all the black shading, but all other pics, and PD's review make him look much brighter and cleaner....I can't wait for mine, he is one more addition to the Vintage used to have part of my MOTUC collection.

    While there are a couple I passed on, because I either didn't like them then, or I had no real attachment to them like Buzz Off, Leech & Sy-Klone....
    Recent....Foe Men, Karatti & Spirit of Hordak
    Coming....
    Wanted....Filmation Hordak & Clawful, Seahawk, Castaspella, Batros & Icer
    Considering....Mosquitor, Leech
    Needed....Dragstor, Mantenna,Two Bad & Attack Trak

    Got mine today. Very nice! The tight elbows are not a big issue for me. It's either the forearm notch is small, or the bicept piece is a little big. What ever it is, I can bend his elbow all the way. Overall a great fig!

    I agree. I think the Matty pictures of the figures have really been going down hill. They look hastily thrown together with little thought or care of showing off how awesome the figure is!

    Got My Kobra Khan delivered this afternoon UPS Ground. I love this figure, nice tight joints elbows bend all the way with no problem. Has that new toy smell, DOES NOT smell of pee and best of all his little buddy "Pixel" I even put the snakemen sticker on his package since thats his faction.

    Sssssssoooooo jealousssssssss!

    Mine should arrive in a few days. Er, uh, daysssssssss.
    Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti

    Mine has also not shipped out yet..I was sure Toyguru said that after the Demo Man fiasco that there would be no partial shipments. I am really getting fed up with DR and Matty, they need to get there act together.

    JUST got my Kobra Khan!

    Really…this is a gorgeous figure! The paint apps are all nearly perfect! Nice, tight joints and little Pixel is an awesome extra! The sculpt on the new shins are REALLY great! Really pleased with this figure…and since King Hsss is all alone, I think I'll put him with Hsss rather than the Evil Warriors. Thank you Mattel and the 4H for yet another great MotU figure!
    200X fan? Classic fan? What does that mean? I'm a MotU fan!!!
