We know what the figures are going to be, it's just the shipping order that's a surprise (and the 13th figure). If the figures themselves were a secret (i.e. we didn't know what they were going to be ahead of time) then I'd be more upset about spoilers. But they aren't so it's just a matter of when they arrive. Personally someone I'm friends with on Facebook posted pictures when he received his last week so I was "spoiled". Kinda took some of the fun out of it but I'm not going to piss and moan about it. I will honor the secrecy and try not to spoil it for those that want to be surprised (which is why I put the figure names in spoiler text) but it's not a huge deal to me. I like most of the figures this go round which is why I signed up. I know they are all coming in the next few months and there isn't anyone I can't wait for so I'm cool with them arriving whenever they do.

Honestly I was more surprised by the fact that they started shipping without an email going out ahead of time (that I recall anyway). The first email I got from the Club that they were in fact shipping came a couple days after the first people started receiving them.

Yeah, I know. I did this one but not the last one, because this one has more figures that I like in it. I can understand people wanting the surprise of 'which ones am I getting this time'. It's not that big a deal to me, since I know I'll get them all in good time. I just saw a good opening for a stale board in-joke and ran with it.

Surprise!!!

I hope this means Bombardier will be shipping soon. I would like to see what the file card has to say.

You're telling me if you got home to find Kate Upton and Natalie Portman in a naked pillow fight, you'd call that stupid?

Well, if he didn't have pillows it would be a surprise...

If you don't go home every day expecting to find this, then you're doing something wrong in life.

Surprised it was , with all the card art and everything I've seen online, I'd have figured it'd be .

I didn't put much thought into the lineup order, but I was thinking that any figures that had a new head sculpt would be shipped later in the process since those figures didn't even have a prototype sculpt when they were unveiled (just a computer rendering of the head sculpt). I'm not terribly surprised that these figures came first sine they have a common theme and were largely unchanged from the original releases, the arms on one figure being the main exception.

I'm glad they did change the arms and didn't use the bare ones.

I am too, as I believe I mentioned during the original discussion of FSS 2.0. It's more accurate to the figure on which it is based.

Is there any pics of the carded figures and their filecards? Have not seen any yet.
