Probably only their arms, so there would be no point in making them action figures. That's why I think they'll be figurines.

Or maybe things like the Kick the Cheat toys.

What about Mrs. Commanderson? Aren't you forgetting about her? :P

I don't think they'll use either. They were just simple, one time jokes.

Right. I doubt Mrs. C. more though, because she was in TGS and not Cheat Commandos.

I'm with the people who think they're going to be figurines.

All right! These should be awesome. I'm probably gonna get the whole set, but I know I'm at least going to get Crackotage... and maybe Ripberger. :cheatgrin:

Yes, he did. But he meant to write FireBird. His username is FireBird.

Ah. I want Reinforcements and Silent Rip. They're the best.

It's kind of an inside joke. Fuhbuh thought that Firebert was FireBird when he first heard it. So...lo and behold.

Apparently, they're going to be figurines. I also don't think you'll be able to buy them seperately.

    COMING SOON!

    This Fall we'll be introducing a lot of new products! We'll have a NEW DVD containing all the Short Cartoons, the Teen Girl Squad cartoons, and a bunch of other stuff. Cheat Commandos Figurines will also be hitting our shelves soon. Plus Strong Bad Polos and Li'l Brudder Shirts just to name a few. Keep watching our store for details.


They look delicious, if you ask me. '00t.

It's not like you have a choice. I think they're gonna come as a set.

Very well then! I guess it would be better to have them as a set and not seperately.

Man, those look sweet. I especailly love the facial expression on Blue Lazer's face. "I hate you soooo much!"

Besides adding that nice teaser image, I noticed that one word was changed of all the text on the storefront. Not that it makes much difference, but I'm beginning to wonder how exactly to update the wiki's Store article to reflect it. Notice that before 28 September, the word used to describe these items was Toys and now it is Figurines. Like I said, not overly important, but it presents a problem when minor things are changed.

hrmm... they look like pool toys, ya know, you blow them up, theyre huge, toss them in water, leave em tehre for months, come back and there all white. but if not, its gonna be awesome! lets hope that TBC strike a deal with hot topic or something and sell this stuff through there. also i hope that they all come in those little packages that they had in one of the cheat comandoes cartoons. im gonna make some good peer-to-teen choice awards this time!

You have no clue how much that cracked me up. Total childhood flashback there, man. Thanks.

As for Hot Topic, I don't think TBC really want to sell their stuff in a chain store. I'm not sure of their reasons, but they're probably reasonable enough. I'm guessing they are thinking that their target audience is probably the only people shopping in their preferred stores. Homestar Runner probably wouldn't sell as well in a place like WalMart, mainly because of the different types of peoples that shop there. Still, Granny might be less scared to go into StuffMart to buy some homestar runner stuff for the grandkids than she would to go into a comic book store.

These toys look cool.

I hope they're high quality figurines like the other characters were. Maybe I'll even buy them, who knows?
