Amazon has already started to ship orders for the as-of-yet officially announced exclusive Black Series Halloween Edition 2pks. I don’t know why I like these so much more than the Xmas figures they release. Again, these aren’t for everyone, nor are they meant to be, so if they aren’t “your thing”, they are easy enough to ignore until “your thing” comes along. I can say it sure is nice to have something revealed, orderable and released in such short timeframe than waiting weeks/months.
