An easy way to get me to open my wallet is to give me product of one of my childhood icons. I have trouble putting my love of certain characters into words. With the Sorceress, I remember sitting in front of my TV every day after school just in hopes I would catch a glimpse of her. When I was a toddler and all my peers and siblings were obsessed with trucks, I was instead obsessed with birds. I was one of those little prodigies (in my parents' minds at least) that could name any species that visited our bird feeders. It never occurred to me to actually be a bird. But then I saw Sorceress with her feathered arms outstretched and her amazing falcon headdress and suddenly my roleplay and my birdwatching merged. For years I ran around our woods with a blanket around my neck and goggles on my head screeching and cawing and scaring away every real bird for miles. I wanted to be her so bad. And don't even get me started on her transformation into Zoar. Whenever I see her I'm swept back into that nostalgic feeling.
It's pretty rare to get Sorceress merchandise. This Vynl is the 8th product I can think of (including variants of the same product). So when I saw this exclusive, despite the relatively low production number, I knew I had to have her.
This 2-Pack was a 2018 Emerald City Comic Con exclusive limited to 2500 pcs (unsold packs were exclusive to Entertainment Earth after the show).
Time for some Comparison Pics!
Here she is with her pack mate Beast Man.
And with my Cheetara Vynl.
Cheers!
