I wonder if the new toy will come with a cygar.

I think that Kup has become popular in recent years due his portrayal in the IDW comics. Despite all the issue several of us have with Shane McCarthy's writing, his portrayal of Kup in AHM was pretty cool and the cygar rocked. Roche's fine writing with the previous Spotlight and post AHM stories featuring Kup have added to the character's popularity.
