Also it says the Marcus Fenix is 12.25" instead of the 10" which it previously sold at.

hope its not a typo.

The colored ones (not bronze, platinum, red or whatever) were on ebay months ago, I was following the auctions but the seller had put them at a way too high price IMO (€ 500,00 each). I think Mindzeye needs to update their website because when I first came across these on ebay, I searched their website and there they were under the section 'Gears of War Legends Series'. I think you missed the boat on this one.

All the pictures say 'Now available in Europe', which was waaaaaay back. That 'coming soon' is not right. These were already released and sold out fast. I should have gotten those off ebay even though the prices were crazy.

Yeah, I'm just saying that it took years for them to be offered as fully painted and I never understood why they didn't just do that from the jump. They look WAY better.

In that case Mindzeye can keep their stupid bronze and blue or woteva dumb editions.Not the brightest bulbs working there obviously.

Yeah there loss, what a shame, its obvious there would be a demand for them, oh well back to scouring the net for things I may like.

i have the colored USA edition since last year. Whats the difference between the USA version n European version?

Skullboy · 02-28-2013, 11:34 AM

Could you post a picture of the American version, would really appreciate it.
Are they the same colours as European version? also did it say American version on the website when you bought it or European?

I dont see any difference but I will double check when I get home. And No it didnt say USA version at all. Just says Legend Series.

So from what I can make out, 25 of the painted ones were made last year and offered to the original buyers of the Bronze/Platinum ones. Did these come from Germany? It seems these "European" versions will be sold from Germany.

Strange they not answering Emails, and Im sure they will ship to USA even if they are coming from Germany.
