Thanks for posting an image of it.

...to be honest, I'm rather dissapointed by it... And no, I'm not trying to say that this isn't still...neat, but...it it is kind of hard to enjoy this as much when the previous thing was that HUGE anniversary package, I'm preordering the konamistyle thing, and every other game's come either with an art book(let), or with a soundtrack sampler.

C'est la vie, I guess this still isn't all that bad. :)

When they first showed this figure for the Comic Con I thought it was going to be flat since all of the pictures were from one angle.  I was very surprised when I picked mine up that this is actually a 3D representation of what a sprite would look like.  A lot of people at the time complained that they didn't like it.  I don't know why though.  It was only ten dollars and looked exactly like it should.

Having it as the pre-order bonus is a little disappointing though.  At the very least Neca could have used the same mold and repainted it in Simon's Quest colors.  Oh well...

Here are some pictures for those who want to see the whole figure.

Hmmmmmmmmmm..... With these 3D angle showing pictures, i can say that it isn't that bad at all. It looks better, so i say my previous opinion doesn't count.

Those 3D pics put it into perspective, I thought it was flat too. I can only imagine how much this'll be worth in 5 years when it's rarity is auctioned on eBay  :P

Does this include pre-orders from gamestop.com?
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13104670/1/Castlevania-Birth-of-the-Dragon

Dracula was not always a monster. He was once a man named Mathias Cronqvist. A flawed, conflicted, genius of a man. How did the educated, aristocratic, crusader who piously served the church become a vampire, and eventually the Dark Lord himself, the opposing force to God? From a very young age terrors and tragedy shaped the man into the king of all evil. This is his story.

The gamestop exclusive is a SIMON'S QUEST color scheme- Red, Black and White.

Very cool.

Weird. My Simon Figurine was Simon's Quest Simon, not original CV-Orange.

I have an extra brown Simon from the comic con if you want to trade me a black one for it?  My Gamestop wouldn't let me get two even if I pre-ordered two games.

Heheh. Nah, I like my Simon's quest one (pic of it can be found in Off Topic in the photo album).
