The new Halloween '05 Entertainment Earth catalog has some very big news as far as Stikfas are concerned. Five new items. Not on the Stikfas site. Not on the EE site.
Here are the names and catalog item numbers.
Pterodactyl Dinosaur (a skeleton, but with tattered wings, and parts to build a glow in the dark one too) SKAFK50R
Omega Male Mobster SKAFK49R
Delta Boy with Bicycle SKAFK25R
Stegasaurus Dinosaur SKAFK51R (a skeleton too, but no extra pieces for an additional fig)
Alpha Male with Dune Buggy SKAFK53M
That's right, Stikfas Dinosaurs, Stikfas Bikes, and a Stikfas Car! I cant understand why new figs so revolutionary to the Stikfas franchise wouldn't be hyped up for a few weeks before they were released! I can't understand why they would only show up in the catolog for EE and nowhere else! But I kid you not. It's just too bad I can't scan it or take a pic, you'll just have to call EE by phone or get the catalog yourself.

Yeah, something fishy is going on with them. You can normaly browse the printed catalog online, but mysteriously pages 54 and 55, which have the stikfas listings, have question marks over them and they don't show the complete page, leaving out the new guys. Curious.

Those sound like some cool figures for the Stikfas line.

They were probably asked not to put the images online at this point in time. The kits in question are due out this month, so they are probably waiting for the official announcement from Stikfas to display them on the website

In deed. EE and other e-tailers who got a hold of these early are waiting for the "say-so" to show these.
Why has stikfas not posted them yet?
Two theories Prevail-
1. Just not ready to "ship" yet, and after this summer's re-release debackle... they don't want extended "previews" of their figures until they are in stores.
This is the MOST likely.
2. That there is ANOTHER anouncement that will coinside with the release of these figures.
What is it? NO CLUE. In all of fandom if there is "something else going on" - we don't know what it is. Expected to break any minute now. ;D

Which one, or ones, are you looking most foward to? I gotta say Mobster followed by Dune Buggy. The Dinosaur skeletons do sound interesting though. Also, anyone know the best place to get Stikfas online? I've checked out BBTS but they sell out pretty quickly. I can't find any in stores in my area so I'm limited to online ordering.

EE seems to be the only place online that I've seen to carry the greatest range of figs. There also pretty good on pricing. I've only seen Stikfas in person once at a game store and never again. EE is where I got the few I have.

There's also the option to become a retailer and pay wholesale price. But it would probably take some conning. Like a tower. Sorry, ridiculous reference.

EE is where I got the few I have. EE has a great selection, but their prices are way high. For example, they sell the G2 Ninja kit for $9.99, whereas youbuynow.com has them for $5.99 each. In addition, youbuynow has great coupons for 10% off, low shipping rates, and fast shipping.... I'm looking forward to that mobster myself. |
