Holy cow. Luckily nobody was hurt. That's madness. My 10/15 lot still needs to be picked up at the post. I got the notice for it Tuesday but haven't had a chance to go there yet.

Yes, I'm glad everybody was fine as well. Man, go get it already, some great figures need a home ;)

The Horde Troopers are really cool. I love their design. I wish they made them more available and less expensive but I guess they're pretty much 100% new tooling so I can see why they'd be up there. At around $70 a pop, that's pretty pricy but I'm glad I have mine. I ordered two extras. This was a great opportunity for them to make a very popular army builder and make them part of the Eternia Essentials but they dropped the ball by making it extremely limited with no intention of making it available in larger quantities. I know people who bought 10 Eternian Palace Guards and 10 Snakemen who would probably buy 5 times that in Horde Troopers alone. I've said this before, they're like the Storm Troopers of He-man and limiting them is just really a goofy move.

Okay, I managed to squeeze the two Horde Troopers and Mantenna onto my shelf. I won't bother unboxing the other two sets of Horde Troopers until I get more shelf space. This is pretty much the max. I don't know where Dragstor, Entrapta, Multi-Bot and Modulok. If they do Vultak and Dylamug, I'm going to be screwed. lol.

Here's my Evil Horde shelf so far...

I know what your saying dude and yes, from My experience with My 4 Horde Troopers, they are 100%, even their weapons are :shock:

Hah, that is great! I know, it is going to be tricky for the future Hordesmen especially if you make your own characters :o :o

I was able to get two Mantenna figures, two Horde Troopers, Dactus, Nepthu, and a Weapons Pak. Phew!

Mantenna is fantastic looking, but Dactus really takes the cake. What a cool looking figure.

Yes, Dactus is great but I'm surprised you liked Dactus more, most people don't and either traded him or didn't get him at all!

Those chicken legs on him are fantastic engineering. He's going to really look neat with the upcoming 4H Raven figures.

I couldn't be happier with Mantenna except the same thing happened to mine with the mouth piece...
