I can't wait to get my Gender Bender box set!
Also, again thanks for the update about the big Hypnotoad being a coin bank.

I think the BBTS Hypnotoad will be boxed because Toynami has time to do so before sending them over. *fingers crossed

We can only pray to God1 and God2 that they'll be boxed.

It's just too much fun talking to fellow collectors jabalong, like a self-help addiction therapy group lol. Is Gender Bender's hair removable?
Probably not...I'll let you know in a few days when I finally get around to opening it, lol. MuchAdo recapped what I had mentioned near the end of the last thread...but to those who missed it, I was informed through my person at SDCC that the larger Hypnotoad figure is actually a coin bank. Curious as to what you guys thought of that...and could that be the figure for pre-sale at BBTS?

Wow, that's one awesome set. It looks like that destructor is a little different from the last one. The original figure had shiny spikes, while this one has solid gray spikes (I think SculptBoy said the paint would be like that in a different thread, but I don't remember which one). Is it just me, or is his hand different too? Also, are the eyes at the top of the box different from the usual squinting bender eyes? They look like they're looking off to the side a little more.. Comparison to the Kidrobot Zoidberg and the Toynami Bender figure
Thanks for this Picture, FF. He's just a tad too big for the regular line, but he'll definetly work for now. I had no idea that Kidrobot figure was that big! That's really a cool size for that figure. Have they made any other KR figures in that scale (other than Wooden Bender)? I'd like to get a Fry or Bender that size.
Wow at that Morbo. It looks like he's about as tall as the Talking Bender. I wonder why his arm is pulled out like that (on a side note, that could be proof that he was originally meant to be a BAF)? He looks better and Better every time I see him! I WANT THE SHOGUN WARRIOR BENDER!! That's my favorite of them all. Will his fist actually fly off like other SW figures do? Looks like it will, actually. He looks exellent! Looks like there is a Future for our beloved Futurama line!

@MRM, I was surprised they'd start the SGW line with just plain Bender.Where did that anime Bender go? I'd prefer him actually. But this SGW regular Bender is pretty neat. Next I want SGW Zoidberg and anime SGW Zoidberg.
So there's going to be an entire line of the guys? If so, then Awesome!! If not, then awww.... I think the Anime Bender looked cool, too. They'll probably release him as an excusive in the future. If they do make this a line, I would assume Fry or Leela would be next, although I would love a Zoidy that size!

I like Morbo's figure. But the only thing he can seem to do is move his arms at a 360 degree angle. And he doesn't seem to have any accessories either. Still a cool figure, nonetheless.

It looks like he has 360 arms, a turning head, and a rotating waist to me (it also kind of looks like he has turning feet & hands, but I doubt it.). Those are standard points of articulation for this line, anyway, so that's what I'll be expecting.However, if he ends up being made in Vinyl like Toynami said, he'll probably only have head and arm articulation. As for accessories, if Hypnotoad comes with anyone, I'd think he would be with Morbo, as they're both on TV. Other than that, maybe half of a Newsroom table, with the other half coming packaged with Linda? He'll probably at least have a standard ray gun (to kill the puny earthlings with), Yeah Morbo is a large character! I can't wait for him. I would have rather had Lrrr but beggers can't be choosers.
Yep, he's definitely gonna be huge, bigger than Robot Santa! I feel the same way about Lrr, but it seems that more people on here wanted Morbo than Him(Not to say we don't want him, though!!). Lrr would probably cost more to make, too. I wounder just how big Lrr would be, anyway? He'd probably have the same POA as Morbo. I can't wait for Morbo!!

He'll probably at least have a standard ray gun (to kill the puny earthlings with) At this point, it's probably wishful thinking to hope for Morbo to come with anything. That said, one great thing about Kickstarter is Toynami could set different goals for different funding levels reach. So for instance, could have a minimum level for the project to go forward, at which point everyone just gets Morbo with nothing extra in the box (ie, no extra costs). Then could have a second level where he came with basic accessories and a third level where he came with Linda, and so on. Don't really expect anything like this to happen, as Toynami's also probably just focused on trying to see if it can get enough funds to put out the figure as is. But that's the kind of thing they could do with Kickstarter in terms of setting different goal posts for the project.

(Mind explodes because of how awesome that is) So they're actually releasing him?! I never thought I'd see the day... Too bad I can't spend $150 for him right now...but I'll just look for cheaper ones on eBay . I'm really happy Toynami is getting around to releasing more figs, with Morbo going to Kickstarter, Gender Bender coming with Destructor, and, of course, this Bender. Maybe someday we will get the Robot Mafia, Flexo, and Lrr .

BBTS corrected the Tineez SDCC Hypnotoad information b/c of me, I even got a thank you email! What an honor! It's the SDCC Tineez Hypnotoad, order with confidence now. And they 'should' be getting them around the 5th of August.

We're in this situation because the Wooden Bender and URL series sold so poorly.
I happen to like those figures, actually...my least favorite was Nudar but that's because I didn't care much for the character.
