Has the Exclusive base been shown? Does anyone know when it will be shown?

In all my years of collecting, I never heard of an Exclusive feature that was not shown at the time of PO.

Several superpowers wonder woman attachments were added way after the pre-order. The concept came to Chad after the proto was painted and the pre-order date set.

"Robin will include a unique Base that will allow him to stand with Batman and Batgirl. We won’t be unveiling the Batgirl until Nov, so we can’t show the base just yet!!"

thanks guys. I was aware of that message I wanted to see if anyone had any sneak images of exactly what it is.

I'm a reasonable guy. I think it's pretty goofy to put an EX up for order and not show it is what we're getting, especially if I decide at a later time I don't want the EX base, I'm out my $100 if I decide to cancel...kinda stupid if you ask me. I'm not bashing, just being 100% honest. I want to know exactly what I'm getting, currently I have no clue what it is or isn't that I'm getting.

So at this point I will stick with my BBTS regular, if I decide to keep the order and move forward with the line.

I hope this isn't the norm moving forward with Tweeterhead. I was excited for Batman and Joker, but as much as I'm looking forward to this Robin, the way this EX release has been handled is a little amateur. That along with the Batman & Superman height measurements discrepancy...I just want to make sure I'm getting what I think I'm getting. It hasn't completely killed my excitement for this line, but it MOST DEFINATELY has me pumping the brakes just a little but. I know they're an up and coming company but consumer need products to be clearly defined, so we know exactly what it is that we are getting.

I also think that they should not make the base be an ex why punish the costumers who would like to display together but want to order from another site. I feel ex should parts should be something like they are doing with Supes with an interchangeable head. Or like wonder woman where she can hold her sword and bats where he can hold a bataring. It should not be a base.

I hope the green lantern ex is not his lantern I hope the lantern comes with the regular. I hope a construct is what comes with the ex or an extra head.

I don’t see it as punishing customers who order outside the site as much as rewarding those who do order direct. Seeing as how the Ex is the same price as the regular there’s little incentive not to order direct. If you’re outside the US and have to pay more in shipping you just have to weigh whether the Ex offering is worth a few extra bucks or not. I’d think in most cases it is.

As far as what the Ex should be... there aren’t a lot of options for a character like Robin. A change-o-head wouldn’t make any sense here. I personally think the base was a great idea.
