I'd like to get a few of these to put on my shelf with my other minifigs. I only discovered them this AM on Facebook. Glad there is a discussion here.

I just found some in Toys R' Us.

 

I was disappointed to get almost half solid-color/clear figures in every pack, definitely going to just buy individual ones. I know a lot of you guys love that look, but t geto me they look cheap and tacky and their details blurred unless you examine them up close.

 

The fully painted figures, however, are gorgeously detailed.

 

The only one I want that I didn't get is Maggot Face, if anybody gets him in full color I'll buy him off you. I've waited all my life for a figure made entirely of maggots.

Dude maggot face is awesome! Im still looking for him too
I know what you mean with the solid colour ones, some colours work better than others.
what did you think of the reptiles? did you get any 8 packs?

I picked up two 8-packs and one 4-pack today. I really love these things. They are like the love child of Socket Poppers and Weird Ball Wrestlers. 

 

My Toys R Us had a special display devoted to them in the main area near the action figure aisles. It was very heavily stocked. 

 

Here's my haul. I'm very happy with what I got, except for the fact that I got two doubles. I love both the clear ones and the painted ones, and am glad they put both varieties in each pack.

I like them. I'm surprised at how many variants there are. While not the best paint aps, I prefer the painted over the clear.

I bought one eight pack, and this is my pull. 

 

I think part of my problem is: I'm not loving these because they are what I want them to be, and I'm trying very hard to draw my opinion for what they are.

 

I really dig the blue gator, the clear fly, the bat, and the mouse (that looks like a demented Looney Tunes character)... But I could care less about the others. I'll likey end up gluing the ones I keep, so I can play with them. I DO like how there are two foot pegs on top of the can container, so you can pose them in face offs.



Also: the TRU in Columbus (Hamilton Road) had the eight packs, but they also had the vehicle playset in the aisle with the WWE action figures... Which is strange, because it wasn't near any of the other Moose shit.

 

*snort*, "Moose shit".

I bought a 8 pack and 4 pack. I give them 4 out of 5 stars. The variety in colors is a plus. Some sculpts are way better then others, good for trading. Toys r us really pushing them. I do love how their seperated into clicks and the easy to follow chart on rarity.

I got 3 of the 8-packs from a local Target today, they had them on sale from $13 down to $10.
Cant help but not like these guys, so I may end up getting more next time I'm down there.
Theres a big garbage truck for $20 with an exclusive figure with it too.

The figure is mad out of a firmer, slightly rigid plastic, and the "spine" is a flexible rubber.
