I never really got into the PAWS at all.
The black & white ones were very cool looking.. but they were just statues.
I don't think that they really count as toys. Limited edition sculpture yes, but toys no.

These colors just don't do anything for me either. The colors just make them seem.. less menacing? I dunno. The original colors made the figure seem strong, but these colors just don't seem to help the figure much. I can't say anything bad about them, but they just aren't as "cool" looking I guess. Kinda like Arnold Schwarzenegger in a clown suit.

I feel the same. I tried to like them, but the price made me sit back and think about it. Although a few giant ones would look cool guarding my house!

I like them, I like the colors. Multiple colorways never bothered me much as long as they don't get excessive. $400 is a lot of money and I'm still gunning for them, but if I miss out I won't be too bummed. I want that Luke Chueh head, though. Must have it. also the Labbit and the black lucky cat.

Yeah I sent a mule for the Celsius , Chueh head and the Black Cat. I wanted that Labbit until I realized it's a 6" not a 10"

Price is definitely a consideration as well. If they were $20 each I would probably have a whole set.
But $400 per figure is a lot of money for something that doesn't even explode Wink

I believe $400 is the price for all 3 as a set.

Still to much money to get me interested.
How much were the original colors? I remember them being too expensive to really catch my interest as well.
