It looks great but it’s still Shocker Toys. And they have about a .000 batting average when it comes to actually RELEASING toys. So, while this is lovely I have no faith I’ll ever be able to walk into a toy store, pick one up, and take it home.
Case in point? How many years have we been hearing about GWAR toys?
What retailers will I be able to find them at 60-90 days after Toy Fair? I’m definitely down for one, just like I am for the GWAR figures I still can’t buy.
I’ve watched the progress for these guys on and off since the first Newsarma article announcing their development. I never post these boards, but… wow. These toys look so exciting in so many ways. The model has even come around from looking like Issue One Scud to the fully developed Scud I arrived at complete obsession with in middle school. Rob, thank you for bringing back something that felt unfinished for a lot of us, too.
the disclaimer on his back looks like a button. it would be cool if he had a mini voice recorder in him. press the button and he says a couple seconds of dialogue. I have started making him a space suit that I can put him in. Oh and hey Rob, are you going to wizard world L.A.? I hope so. The Doctor should team up with Scud that would be cool.
Hooray!
Just curious if this is the start of more figures from the Scud comic, because a Jeff figure would be insane?!Think of all the things you could attach?! And Drywall would be just as great, although I can see the complications of multiple hands poking out here and there. I like what I’ve seen thus far, hoping for big things for the figure!
Cheers!

It would indeed be nice to have a series of Scud figures. I guess it is all going to depend on how much money they’re gonna make off of the Scud eh? I hope it does well enough for the other characters to get a fig… or at least some accessories for the Scud.
What is the ratio going to be like for Scud to Scud Sol in a case? (And how many figures will be in a case or box or what have you? I’m not a toy collector, I don’t really know how this breaks down…) I hope the Sol isn’t going to be some sort of rare chase item.
This figure looks awesome! Props to Shocker for such a faithful design job. I could care less about action figures in general, but I’m definitely picking one of these up!
I would very much like to get one of these but I’d like to know how to go about doing that. I haven’t been able to find answers to these questions so I’ll just let it fly and hope someone can answer them.
Can I order one directly, or will I have to talk my local comic book store into ordering a case? Will Diamond be distributing it, and if so how much will it cost? Finally, when will they be released and when should we order by?
So they should be in the next Previews at the latest if we’re going to see them in the comic shops in April-May, right? I want to make sure I don’t miss the opportunity to pre-order these!
This figure looks SICK!!! I can’t wait to buy 3 of them. One for the home, one for the office, and one to keep in the box until my unborn child is old enough to read Scud!
Wow, I have been waiting for close to 10 years for new scud comics and an action figure. It’s so exciting now that it’s happening. I’m forever grateful
Where will i be able to get one of these, I looked online and nobody had them not even shocker toys, thier website realy had no mention of them as far as on the ordering side of things, Is there at least a release date i could look forward too. I hope they arent so limited that you have to be at the right place at the right time to get one. everyone should be able to buy one if they want. By the way is anybody willing to sell Rob’s cover of #21 i want one so bad but could not afford to fly all the way across the country to buy one it is the best of the 4 i think.
Wow, I’m just in awe, a guy at work said bring me a moutain dew, so I just had to say where are the cheeto’s. I went on a tangent about how rob was working in the film biz and ended up going to IMDB to prove it. Low and behold I find rob posts on IMDB there’s a new site, new issues of scud, and a toy. I just about pissed my pants in excitement. Brandon BBTS.com is offering preorders for whole sets and scud seperately. Shocker Toys any chance of the variant being offered as a special order direct?
Painted Versions will be at Toy Fair
Wow it really does look great, is there any release date yet?
Looks great!
Products will be in tooling and production starting Feb1st.
Man, that is so kickin rad! When can I buy one?
i definitely want some sol variants!
Lord Almighty…
It’s nice of Shocker Toys to give us an rundown of the production dates, but I want my toy NOW.
Great, great stuff. All it needs now is a Jeff in Bacta Tank accessory.
This toy does scud justice in every imagenable way.
how tall are these going to be btw? still 6 inches?
They look really great. The poseability looks fantastic.
Was WAY disappointed when I saw it in San Diego – this thing is a complete 180…my wanting knows no end.
Wallup gluteous maximus!

Steve these will be released 60-90 days after Toy Fair and that is a fact. Go light the fire somewhere else.
Steve, do you have a website that I can take a shit on? Just curious.

Steve, would you please go away. Complain on your own website.
ouch!
can’t wait for this guys!
gonna make a scud armada!
K, Rob. I’ll be back 91 days after Toy Fair…
Actually, I’d rather you never come back.
Man, the guns look awesome. I can’t wait for Rob
to do some ol’ school stop motion with this thing, eH?
I’ll supply the playdough.
Can I help? I will provide the figures =)
I’ll supply the alcohol and “party favors”
Also, those pictures kick serious taint!

God bless the man who invented ball joints.
Paint or no, whatever its release, it just smashing to see what a Scud looks like without an outline.
Maybe you can get Tennapel to do some stop-motion with this sucker.

They won’t be out untill 60-90days after Feb20th. You will see them listed in previews and hopefully a few mass stores.
So they should be in the next Previews at the latest if we’re going to see them in the comic shops in April-May, right? I want to make sure I don’t miss the opportunity to pre-order these!
OH GOD! I will buy one of these SO HARD!!
This figure looks SICK!!! I can’t wait to buy 3 of them. One for the home, one for the office, and one to keep in the box until my unborn child is old enough to read Scud!
Congrats on a superb job, Geoff. Shocker Toys should be praised for their incredible work here.

id rather have a matte finish but this still looks damn good

Me too about the matte finish. May be I can just spray the figure with matte coating.
The figure will be in Matte finish as Rob requested. We gave him pictures of both SCUD and SOL you should see them up here soon.
Feel free to discuss it at our forums as well www.shockertoys.com/forum

The ‘SOL’ variant will be offered direct as well.
