Bases

Postby CJEscandell » Sat Jan 14, 2012 10:39 am

Sorry if this has been discussed before, or if its basic knowledge.

On sites where they're taking pre-orders for Pop! toys, they're showing them coming with a base. Is this a new feature? And if so, are the bases removable?

I wonder if it is like the Star Wars Pop! where Brian had to include the base, because another company thought it was too much like and action figure. Making them removable solves problems as well.

I don't buy the ones with bases. I don' want half my collection with and half without. Thankfully, this allows me to skip SW.

You do know you can just remove the bases, right?
