SPAWN: ENDGAME (http://endgame.spawn.com/)

That’s all from me. Let’s check in with Ben “The Blur” Vance for his half of the update…

Hey, Everyone!

The final preseason games are up-coming, and fantasy drafts are concluding. Pigskin is finally here, with College football kicking off this holiday weekend, followed by the big boys! It looks to be another exciting year.

I purchased my student tickets for ASU this past week. I can’t wait for the season to begin, and am looking forward to the huge Georgia game! UCLA is going down Cochese75 :)

I guess that’s enough about football. By popular request, here is Spud Webb from NBA Legends Series 4! Webb is showing off his extreme hops, which once won him the NBA Slam Dunk Contest.

Webb and the rest of NBA Legends 4 (Patrick Ewing, George Gervin, Elgin Baylor, Julius Erving, and Larry Bird) will be available in late October.

That’s all for today!

Hehe, his name is spud.

[Spawnomite]

Spud looks cool. :cool:

[Spawnomite]

Also, that sketch by Portacio is bad ass.

[Skitz]

Nice update. Not a fan of Spawn myself, but that sketch looks cool. :)

How's the big Halo Series 4 reveal looking Joe?

[Kabong30]

He's so cute. He's like the hobbit of professional basket ball.

[punkg42]

Nice update. Can't wait for AOS2.

[Clerk.]

CLOWN!

It’s looking bleak for this week, but if everything goes well, next week for sure with a little added something in the mix! Stay tuned!!!

first to admit I like guys

[Spawnomite]

That's so wrong Bulldozer36. ;)

[Bulldozer36]

Oh come on, it's funny and you know it.

[Bulldozer36]

That's why I love Bulldozer36. ;)

[Spawnomite]

FixedLMAO!!!! :D

[Spliff]

I read AoS as AoF...damn you Aleksi. :(

When I get upset, I just stare into your avatar and everything gets better!

[Spliff]

Zooey is the cure for any illness!

[BiBLE]

Dynomite. Nice sketch.

[oldboy26]

Why couldn't you have added flavor to the NFL lines like you did with the NBA cardboards? They ain't too pretty but it's alot better than just grey with a team logo that NFLers got.

you shouldent be the moderator, you should be the teaser.

[SoulRedeemer]

^^ Joe F. the Teaser. Yeah, that has a nice ring to it. I like to be teased. :o

Awesome pencil work, Portacio. :thumbsup:

[MaxGoof]

I don't suppose that little something extra can be some news on more Grunts??

C'mon Joe! The Grunts are the rarest, most expensive, and most in-demand figure in the whole line! You already have the mold, even! Why haven't we seen these guys back in circulation yet, when pegwarmers like Jackals and Brutes keep coming back series after series?? :(

[Saurian]

Love the Spawn Drawing, i don't like to do realistic portraits, but i still like to look at them. Violator is awesome (Should get a figure or two, maybe after the Halo line, or when i have extra cash after a line) I'm sure the Sports figure is cool, but Ive never been a big sports fan.

[Mongerty]

What, no halo? I never hear about Halo!!! :rolleyes:

That Spawn intrigues me.

They haven't found the best way to make you pay the most money for a new one yet.

[BoodaLuvr]

Joe, dunno if this has been asked b4 but all these NBA Legends from past you guys are missing the biggest one, Michael Jordan. Are there plans on making one of him??

[Sanghelli]

They haven't found the best way to make you pay the most money for a new one yet.

They could make a gold one with a diamond needler and platinum plasma pistol.

I'm liking the NBA packaging myself! I think we'll see more of this type of packaging with the sports figures in the future.

It has nothing to do with grunts.

It is highly possible we’ll see more grunts in the future.

Whoa! Sarcasm! :D

Actually we are trying to work out a deal for you to be able to trade your first born for it. Of course, it will have to be an on-line transaction. ;)

In reality, we work very hard to be able to bring these figures out to the public for around $10. However, we can not control the secondary market or what a retailer will ask for the figures.

As with any of the Legends figures, we have to approach each individual estate.
Jordan, I believe, is already under contract. We have tried several times and will continue to try and get his license.

[bborst]

If this is Capullo's attempt at cartoon-anime style - then I'm sold. I love his work.
