So I ordered this months ago from my comic dealer:

...and it finally came. I had almost forgotten that I even ordered it until I saw it in my box of stuff. As soon as I got home I cracked that sucker open and put it together. Here is the final product:

I know it is not that exciting and I know other people got some of these action figures, but I was just impressed with how good this looks. I am a zerg player by trade, but I have always loved Zeratul, Tassadar, and the entire Protoss storyline. I was planning to put it on my shelf with other figures, but it is just too tall, so for now it will live on my graphic novel bookshelf. That is really all that I have for now. =)

Oh, an update. I got a message recently from a reader asking about when I will post another essay. I have one in the works right now that I have already trashed and rewritten a couple times. I think I have a final form, but need to finish and reread over a few times before it is posted. Thanks a ton to the readers out there. I appreciate your comments and willingness to read long form ramblings about my life.

Cool! How many StarCraft action figures do you own? How much did Zeratul cost? How much do they usually cost?

That is the only one...just got it. Honestly, I am not sure the cost because the guy just puts all my stuff in a box and tells me $200 bucks or whatever. I think it was like 20 or 30 though. It is a good size.

I'm sorry, but Zeratul is not the man.

Everyone knows Tassadar is cooler.

Yeah, I want the Kerrigan one, but I don't think it is out yet. On the box it shows Raynor and Zeratul as the first series with Kerrigan and a Marine (Maybe Tychus?) as the second series.

FYI: Amazon has his for 30 bucks: http://www.amazon.com/DC-Unlimited-Starcraft-Premium-Collectible/dp/B004LV1HEW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326120619&sr=8-1

What? That guy is dead. Whatever Blizzard made him in SC2, Tassadar is DEAD.

Zeratul will be the last hero to die in this saga.

Only because he chose to be dead. Despite there being a huge protoss army and terran army on both sides of the overmind what does tassadar he says fuck you guys im getting credit for killing the overmind not you guys. Then what happens raynor becomes a drunk and zeratul is running around the galaxy aimlessly untill who comes and saves the day and gives the story derection Tassadar thats who.

(I know i skipped over the events of BW but hell blizzard did that as well)

Going over to amazon now!

edit: ONLY $30 ON AMAZON!!! I thought it would be more, okay ordering one when I get home! Thanks for sharing TheAmazombie! SO COOL!!!! Finally Thrall will have some competition for coolest action figure on my shelf.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Adun needs an action figure, because 'En taro Tassadar' sucks!

"En taro" is just khalani for roughly "In honor of". Also Tassadar sacrificed his coporeal body to destroy the overmind. Isn't that worth honoring?

-Edit: I couldn't resist, just bought myself one!!!! My holiday money is officially gone.

Haha. It is an awesome figure. I think I am going to order the Raynor one as well the more I look at it and start a new SC2 Figure shelf.

Blizzard sure knows how to advertise. Damn, the final product looks lame while the box looks like "OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG THAT IS SO COOOOL MOMMY CAN I BUY IT?!?!?!?!?!??!? PLEASE!!!!!!!" seriously, that is the reaction I get looking at that box. Thank you TL.net for not being a huge advertising store for SC/SCII products <3. Otherwise, my money I've been saving for a new pc in the future.... well..... =/

Really? I thought that the final product looks pretty damn cool. The only weird part is that you mount him to the pole which you have to shove rather violently into Zeratul's ass...I apologized to him for that. =)
