By me! There was only one Flasher to 4 Daffys and 2 Georges. I snagged the Flasher, will get the others at a later date. $15.99 for anyone wondering.
I will try and take some lightbox pictures tomorrow.

Awesome. I just found them today too! Picked up Flasher and George. Passed on Daffy for now. My TRU had 2 Flashers and about 3-4 of the other two Gremlins. Why short-pack the best one?

I know, stupid right? I will never understand why this is done.

It does, it's just that way in the packaging. His arms would have to be open extremely wide to have the coat open all the way, just preserving space is all.

Maybe, but the George Gremlin comes with a cigar accessory. Plus, this line is geared more towards adult collectors. I doubt any collectors would be up in arms over a Gremlin showing off his non-existent private parts. lol

I picked up all 3 of these today as well as the RAH ghost busters.
Winston and ray, so worth 15.99 and hope this line continues.
I also grabbed an extra gizmo I saw them about a week ago or so at TRU
Glad they still had them, I can't wait for the next series as I saw the next 3 mogwais and grabbed all those on site!

Thankfully i had the brain, mohawk, and poker player/stripe/gremlins form earlier! these will be hot and sell out!!!!! buy them when u see them

I have to agree with you there, I had the Brain in hand months back, this was the only time I saw him. I had more shopping to do so I passed. A few days later he was gone and never restocked and according to a couple of TRU employees, these waves of Mogwai/Gremlins are marked as discontinued already.

Stripe from the first movie or Mohawk from part 2? This wave didn't have a "leader' in it, though the next wave of Mogwai has Mohawk in it. I have some old pics of both I can look for if you wish.

Yea he was, you probably already know but, Frank Welker (G1 Megatron) did the voice for Stripe.

^Just in case you didn't and for anyone else who doesn't. There's your Jeopardy answer/question for the day lol.
