      Got mine yesterday and they are absolutely beautiful! Now I am arguing with myself whether to keep them MIB or free them!

        Mine arrived the other day - just getting a chance to say how much I like them. Really top-notch, quality work. "Keepin' it retro" is the wrong slogan though, because retro was never this good.

        Great work; can't wait to see what's next.

          I got mine yesterday. These are nothing like retro. Yo really have to see these in person to apreciate them! The Detail is every bit as good as any 12 or 13" figure out today. Great job Craig!

            I just opened mine and they are amazing. I never thought an 8" figure could have so much detail. Each one is like a piece of art. Can't wait to get more figures from Zica.

                        Mine came yesterday...truly impressive, they make my head spin. Not every property needs this level of detail, not every ReMego needs to be like these, but for some licenses this is what it takes.

                                Stuff I found out when opening the box:
                                Tigerman has three sets of hands! Cool! I haven't attempted a change of hands yet, but very nice extra.

                                I shortened the necklace slightly, so it wasn't swinging around his bellybutton anymore, but kept enough slack so all the teeth and buttons are not packed too tightly together. I took my time aligning all the teeth and buttons, though I don't think Tigerman cares all that much. All of those miniature bits are nicely detailed, and you don't get a one-piece string of plastic here.

                                I peeled off the tape (which is easy with "fresh" tape), so the box is now nice and clean. It's a tight fit (but I like it like that), so I just held the box and let gravity do its thing, slightly wiggling it. Somebody posted that the box is tight to open, but the thick cardboard makes it look classy.

                                Thank The Maker for few "wiry things". I didn't have to spend an hour removing wires. They also didn't "dig" into the fabric of the clothes, which annoys the hell out of me, it usually makes creases that don't come out. They hold the figure, but not too tight.

                                Detail is great, just inspect the top gold bands on his boots. Nice feline touch on those.

                                Yeah, the soles of his feet are a bit uneven, but I love those boots. They're made like actual shoes, not injection-molded plastic.

                                I would have loved to have seen a picture of Gerard on the box, but maybe that was a licensing issue?

                                I'm keeping Buck in the box until next week. Goods things should be savored...
