I like how they have 2 sets of wings. Good way to go about the design. 

I'm hoping they stay consistent with the paint details on them. The open set has paint on the inside, while the relaxed wings don't. I'd like both sets to match.

Absolutely stunned by the price. My wife just pre-ordered it for my birthday today!

Hey Hasbro, don't forget Dragon Man's "dad"... maybe a release to coincide with DM's shipping?

I still don't know that I need an $85 Dragon Man, but I bought one!

Like others, I'm very pleasantly surprised by the price but am going to wait to order at the same time as Kang and anyone that I might want from the Secret Wars wave. I don't have the Pulse premium subscription, so anything to save on shipping!

I'm not quite as excited as others for DM since I already have the F4 Classics version (that will now crater in value), but I'll be happy to add this version none the less.

I get that... but since I have plenty of good Kang figures I don't think I'll be able to pay the price for the floating throne thing and another Kang figure... unless it comes with some truly unique (as yet unrevealed) Kang faceplates for my Council of Kangs display. 

 

Also, since I plan to order the G.I. Joe exclusive anyway, if I do decide to order Kang, after all, I should probably get over the free shipping limit - and definitely will if I order any of the Secret Wars stuff... so it probably wont' matter regardless.

THIS is a fantastic idea! Someone put this suggestion in front of the team, please!

At this price I'm thinking Dragon Man will move units, which hopefully bodes well for the future of this model. I would *gladly* pay this much for Awesome Android - or $110 if they want to throw in his papa the Mad Thinker and some additional "Awesome Andy" accessories.

The F4 have a lot of mildly obscure villains left to do. Diablo, Wizard, Trapster, Red Ghost, Puppet Master, Mad Thinker. Plus re-dos of Annihilus, Blaastar, and Impossible Man.

@boy_wonder Those FF villains were always some of my earliest targets for customs.

Bought Dragon Man with the quickness and feel the price is actually fair for what were getting. Now for Mangog...

Oh, and since these aren't Haslabs, I'm hoping for at least 2 oversized figs per year.

Dragon Man might be a little too niche for my collection, but this is a steal. I saw people in Hasbro's Instagram comments bitching about the price and came here prepared to fight. I'm glad everyone here seems to recognize that this is good value.

Bring on Mangog and some 12" Sentinels.

I did mention to Dwight, Ryan, Dan and Dan at SDCC that Diablo would be an awesome figure to coincide with Dragon Man's release. They all nodded. 

Yay for the Awesome Android/Mad Thinker shout out!

Considering this thing isn't due to ship for like 10 more months - that seems... far fetched?   But I guess if it's a runaway hit maybe they fast track the next thing.

This was a day one preorder!  Totally missed out on the original ToyBiz figure.  Always wanted one.  Looks great!  Price is fair!  Done and done!  The only bummer is I have to wait a year for this bad boy.
