I have something to say about these figures.
Oh, I smell custom!!! Look at the yellow guy guys. He had the body of Spark Shark. I could see some kewl things happening with those. I used to have a bunch of Gormiti but they just got to expensive for me. So I sold them all to Matthewfitz
Anyways welcome to the board liprandi!!!

Hi. The two Gormiti in the picture are not customs, here in Italy, you can find action figures with jointed limbs, as well as little magnetic Gormiti... I have two magnetic ones, but I don't like them, because they are so tiny that they often break apart because of the small size of the magnetic joints. I think the two in the picture are prototypes, because the commercialized product is not very well produced.

I've taken this picture from the web, but I own this one. It has the same size of the regular one, and I thin the sculpt is just retooled... too small to make it with interchangeable magnetic limbs. Also, these little guys are so different from each other that you can not make the limbs from a figure connect well to another (I'm sorry for my bad bad English).

This is one of the action figures: the leaders from each people are 12 cm tall (more than two and a half inches). The other characters are smaller, and you can find them with their rides... In toy stores, you have to pay 30 euros for a box with an action figure slightly taller than two inches, and his ride!!! I don't like them very much, and they are way too expensive. I prefer the regular ones.
I've already eaten Gormiti chocolate eggs and coins, kids here in Italy have Carnevale (sort of Halloween) costumes to dress like their Gormiti heroes. There are Gormiti everywhere!
Ciao!
