According to what I've heard, those two are still possible future SDCC releases. But will be vinyl instead of regular plastic, and very limited.

Feeling very ripped off on Futurama merch recently, it's all limited edition/random boxed which makes it very easy for ebayers to make money and difficult for collectors to get hold of at the retail price, almost to suspicious levels I can only speak to these Toynami figures as haven't followed other Futurama merchandise, but you really have to look at it as this line has basically been dead for a long time now. So if it weren't for convention exclusives, we probably wouldn't be seeing this Destructor/Bender set, and as it is this may very well be the last thing we ever see. Personally, I don't get it as the first Destructor sold out days after the convention with an immediate huge and sustained run-up in prices on the secondary market. And I can't understand how figures like Morbo and Lrr wouldn't sell very well with online retailers. But for whatever reason, Toynami can't seem to get it together. So in the absence of anything else, I'll take the exclusives. Bring on a Morbo / Lrr convention exclusive two-pack! I'd pay double for those too in an instant.

I see Entertainment Earth took down pre-orders for Futurama Tineez: Series 2, and the Talking Robot Devil.
Bad sign?

Ha, maybe...I really wanted that talking robot devil. The Bender one is so awesome! I don't know which of you will be able to see this link but Futurama posted a Comic-Con Cheat Sheet on facebook...looks like we knew about all of them except for the free poster. So awesome that Zoidy is blue!! And glows in the dark!!

So my friend is at ComicCon and she texted me that apparently Toynami is only selling merch to those with wristbands that they handed out earlier in the day, so they are definitely are limiting that product this year. They are doing the same for Kidrobot too. My guess is this will make online prices soar...

I do believe that Kickstarter idea started her with jabalong. Awesome! I will definitely be supporting this when it starts. Like EvilPDA said, hopefully this will lead to other figures coming out on Kickstarter. Now all I have to do is find a decently priced Destructor and Gender Bender combo....sigh.
