Zurg is finally here, with some caveats: its not officially part of the collection , nor was it ever rumored to be really, its not even from thinkway. But it is the first of its kind, a full scale and accurate version of him. Their also only being sold to our knowledge as a combo with a sub par Buzz Lightyear. I guess this is the only way they could rationalize releasing such a niche character that only had a quick cameo in the third movie, bundle it with a sure thing.
It also doesn't have Zurg vision, or nicities like individual finger articulation. And while it says the waist is fully articulated, I assume they just mean rotates, not that its not rubberized like the TSC buzz. But oh well, he's finally here, and looks very nice. I'm surprised they didn't compromise the scale at all, he's a whopping 15 inches. and apparently shoots balls. Hard to say if its anything like what was portrayed in the movie or some other type of gimmick, they don't really illustrate that very well.
Here's what they have listed as its features.
• Press button to hear Zurg phrases
• Eyes and mouth light up when Zurg talks
• Press button on ion blaster's backpack to send balls spinning
• Fully articulated neck, waist and arms
• Three wheels on base enable Zurg to move in any direction
No one seems to have it in hand just yet, but I'll keep a look out for reviews.

I haven't really had a chance to fiddle around with it or even take it out of the box but it looks reallyyy cool. I'm so glad they finally made something like this. I've ALWAYS wanted one since 1999!
