But I can deal with the "not helmet-sized" head, because let's be honest...Destro is pretty much always drawn/animated as though the mask were skin-tight anyhow! (Heck, the lips move and facial expressions can change on it, too so....). Outside of his first few appearances in the comics, the mask basically acts like a real face anyhow, in other words.

I detest the idea of convention exclusives anyway, especially ones that can only be acquired at said conventions. (did Mattel do that with MOTU's Keldor?)

Yeah, like I said, I wasn't expecting it to be a popular idea, since most people probably aren't going to Comic-Con. I would like to see Hasbro do some sort of 25th exclusive for the Con though... Even if it's just a repaint. Tiger Force Duke, maybe.

And yes, Keldor was a Comic-Cone exclusive. The following year, it was She-Ra. I have 'em both!

First off, I feel exactly the same way about the character!

As for the glasses-- Well, it is a prototype. Maybe she'll have little removable glasses (hopefully better than the comic pack's goggles), but they aren't ready yet. Regardless, I do think this is the best Baroness head ever sculpted.

Stormer Wasss once a man Offline --> Posts: 1,430 --> Join Date: Nov 2006	If the heads are the ball-joint ones we've seen on DTC figures like Barrage, Cover Girl and Mutt, it would be SO easy for Hasbro to package CC with 2 heads (mask and hood) because those things pop off no trouble... The toys of CC may have been different shades but in the cartoon the hood was just a bit darker... Less easy for Snakes, unfortunately, since the rest of his outfit isn't the same with just a mask change.
