FANtastic Exclusive Variant Figures

FANtastic Exclusive 2006 expands!

May 2006 - Four Horsemen Toy Design's fan based project, FANtastic Exclusive 2006 is growing to include five troop-building variants of the fan selected Minotaur character!

It all started with a website where fans could visit and vote on the different aspects of choosing and creating an action figure. Fans eventually chose and helped to design the 7th Kingdom's hulking Minotaur character "Xetheus: Champion of Mynothecea" to represent FANtastic Exclusive 2006. Xetheus will be available for purchase at both the 2006 San Diego Comic Con at NECA's booth and through the Four Horsemen's own FANtastic Exclusive 2006 website. Now, due to a tremendous amount of fan response, Xetheus is getting some allies.

The Four Horsemen are honored to be partnering up with five different toy related websites and magazines to make this happen! Each of the five partners will be selling their own version of a Minotaur Soldier, and each version's production run will be limited to only 250!

The Minotaur Soldiers exclusives will be sold for $20.00 each - not including taxes, shipping and handling charges. They will be available through each partner's own website, and will be made available for pre-order on July 19th, 2006 - the first night (Preview Night) of the San Diego Comic Con.

The five partners involved with the project and their individual Minotaur Soldiers are:


These aren't going to be your average, everyday, run-of-the-mill, repainted variants. Each Minotaur Soldier exclusive will have a removable helmet, and different armor details and accessories than Xetheus. Not to mention a newly sculpted head with an articulated jaw!

If you haven't been there yet, be sure to drop by FANtasticExclusive.com to check out more information and photos of Xetheus and to be the first to get an eyeful in a few weeks when the Minotaur Soldier exclusives are all revealed!

FANtastic Exclusive 2006. Geekin' out's a good thing!
