The Cloverfield Monster Toy
I never mentioned it before, but a few days after watching Cloverfield, I placed an order for one of Hasbro's limited collector's edition Cloverfield monster toys. Although it wouldn't be shipping until October, the only question I had at the time was what it would look like. Due to the secrecy of the movie, Hasbro had delayed placing any images of it online until yesterday.I normally try not to buy anything unless I really need it but my reasoning was this: popular movie + limited edition = profit on eBay if the toy itself didn't look awesome on my bookshelf case. The features seemed pretty cool like 70 points of articulation, authentic sound, 10 parasites and a Statue of Liberty head accessory.
Well after seeing it today I'm starting to change my mind. It's really rather ugly. I was thinking it would be more scary/cool and not so pale/spindly. What do you guys think? I'm down $118 after shipping and handling if I don't cancel my order before it ships.

I would keep it, t actually looks pretty cool. I thought it appeared darker as well as thicker (not so skinny) in the film. Perhaps it got fat because of all the feasting on New Yorkers?
