    Hiya despite your feelings about the SDCC Exclusive, how do you pronounce his name?
    I may just be a Gay Pop fan...but I am also the one who wants ALL of the Figures, who wants this line to continue and who is putting my money where my mouth is....are you doing the same?

    Vykron rhymes with Pie-Mon!

    I'm really curious what some of these "other" pronunciations are: I've heard someone call Vikor "Vee-core" so maybe some folks are calling him "Vee-cron"? I don't know.

    I guess I'm bucking the trend by pronouncing it in my head as "vick-ron". I feel the name needs some distinction from Vikor, which I pronounce as "vy-kor"....I guess I'm mixing up my Is and Ys .

    Vy...Kron.

    This is difficult?
    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

    Vike-Ron ... never occurred to me to pronounce it any other way.
    I assumed it's due to the Viking influnces (okay, lets not go into the design origins of the helmet here ) it it was a spin on the work "Viking".
