We got all five practically on the day they came out!
As much as I LOVE the quicktime movie info (who can I kill to get copies of that concept artwork?!), I really had to laugh when Stan Winston said "The first time everyone - not just some people, but everyone - sees these toys hanging in the store, they will say, 'I have never seen ANYTHING like that!'" Sorry Stan, I've seen these in my dreams and created them on paper since I was an itty bitty pup! Then again, that's really why we bought them.
A few notes: Most of the clothing is NOT removable, being flexible plastic glued in a few strategic places so that it does flow around the figures nicely when you move the limbs - be careful though, torque them too far and you'll snap it off! It can easily be glued back on though.
For some reason, the good guy males have prominent crotches, while the bad guy males are flat as a board! Subconscious imagery, anyone? All of the characters except one, the sabre-tooth, have loincloths, and no, there's nothing to see on him. :D
The heads are interchangable within the genders - the pegs are different sizes for the males and females though, so you can't put a male head on a female body or vice versa. You CAN put Kaela's head on Zynda, though, or Tswana's head on Nakuru!
I haven't had this much fun with action figures since I played "war" with my My Little Ponies! Well, at least I THINK that's a good thing....
