One would hope more pictures will come out, but I don't have them. Assuming July is accurate, yes, production would be under way (with the initial shipments on their way) from China.

Naturally, I should encourage you to purchase it from the few, the proud, the GH sponsors, but it will be available at big box retailers, too. (But who wants to rub elbows with commoners at K-Mart?) <img src="/blogger/wp-content/plugins/editormonkey/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif" alt="" /> Everywhere, as best as I know.

Personally I have been ordering past figures I will now need for scenes in this awesome set. Adam,  Any update on price and has the July release date been confirmed???????

I seriously think that it would be too small, perhaps a safety hazard. That's not an educated opinion, though. Time will tell.<br /><br />Don't thank me. Thank <strong>HASBRO</strong> for making such an amazing piece. Thank them with dollars. Maybe we should mount a campaign to have collectors (and kids) send in pictures of their new favoritest toy actually being played with? (I'll never understand people who don't open their toys.)
