Just make sure you don't put your face near when popping, in case the line snaps.

Thanks for the warning.

I've voted don't care because I like them both. I genuinely don't have a problem with blind feeling the Mystery packets in fact it's part of the fun for me provided you can find a decent sized store with a quiet corner not directly under the till sure I foten have my doubts and recheck packets on my way to pay for them befgore deciding to swap it for one I'm more sure about but, the feverish excitement and the wondering whether you've guessed right is all part of the fun and so far my method of trying to identify more than one easy to feel part to narrow it down has had a 100% success rate so far. It's also good for me since I sturggle to dissamble figures to have some where you can easily take them apart and if you're not happy with the designs it's easier to  change them around when new parts come out

As for the Specials they also produce some good figures and personally I think £2.50 for a Special Plus figure compared with £1.99 for a Mystery figure is pretty reasonable for what you're getting and there looks to be some good oness coming up this year. Just wish they were a bit better on the Creatvity department for both Mystery figures and Specials instead fo going for the same old variations Rockers, Knights and how many Aien variation have we seen?

Ideally I would like the Figures reoffered as Specials too maybe a year after their initial appearance even,  so having my cake and eating it too  :lol ;D.  Over here, the Figures are roughly one dollar cheaper than the Specials but I would rather pay extra just to know what I get and get what I like.  It's hard for me to see "orphan" figures, the ones that you have no current use for that just sits forlornly on the shelf.
