So first mate piggy will have texture? That's great! That should add a lot of character to her. What about articulation? Since she will be a first mate she will need more articulation than the first one.

All that articulation!? Now that's an improvment! Now I can't wait to have it! The playset is gonna sell really well with such an articulated figure and the Swine Trek will surely have tons of stuff to play with. :big_grin:

I have a question. The Mega Beaker has a later ship date than series 3 on EB Games' site. I know their dates are often off, but is Beaker actually coming later? I'm anxiously awaiting my mega! :smile:

I like the color differences in the PIS characters. Link's costume is bluish, Strangepork's is more violet and Piggy's appears to go more toward a pink or purple hue. It's hard to tell from that tiny photo. There comes a time where you have to take a departure from the source material and go with what makes for a good stand-alone piece. I do agree that with all the wonderful textures and paint processes Palisades uses on the figures, they could do something to Piggy's hair, but I think it's okay as it is.

Guys,

I agree with Jamie about the PIS Figures.

And i am an obsessive person about The Muppet Show !

I actually like the changes.
