Xenomrph posted:I want the new comic packs that are allegedly out at Target, and I'd love to pick up some of the "expanded universe" figures that are allegedly out now, too. Good luck. Comic packs are the next on the chopping block, and Hasbro said that after the next batch (TRU exclusive Expanded Universe wave) they're not going to be releasing EU characters until next year. Which is a kick in the crotch as Bastila of KotOR fame just happened to be the winner of the Fan's Choice figure, beating out that librarian and having the nerds-who-I-may-loathe accuse people of cheating Also, I'm gonna have to quote this question from last page cause I'm kinda interested in it as well. Well, I just want an Alien that sort of fits into 1/18 scale without having to spend way too much SpeedofLife posted:Xenomorph, is the Revoltech Alien figure as cool as it looks? Figured you would know.

I actually don't own any Revoltech figures of any kind. 1/18-scale are like 3.75" figures, right? I do have one of the Hot Toys "Snap Kit" Aliens which is about 5" tall, and I really like it a lot. Big pic of the snap kits here.

SpeedofLife posted:Xenomorph, is the Revoltech Alien figure as cool as it looks? Figured you would know. I've got one and I gotta say, although I'm impressed with the sculpt and paint apps the pose-ability is limited in places. The only other thing I'd knock it for is the removable head dome thinger. I wish it was was a bit less transparent and stayed on more securely. As it stands though it's probably the best Alien figureat that price available.

That's about scale with G.I. Joes, right? I'd have loved having Aliens for my Joes to fight. Might have to pick a couple up for nostalgia sake, and pit them against whomever remains of my childhood collection of the Real American Heroes. Question: Have they ever made a figure of Fumbles/Trouser Snake/Dr. Killshot from that episode of Robot Chicken? Like, is he an actual figure? I wouldn't expect them to actually make one with that name, but I figure he might already be a figure. Though they are making that Eternia Dentist guy.

Your drat LP was what got me starting to hunt the things down, actually The problem is that their price has climbed into the damned stratosphere. But dammit, my old awesome Snake Alien needs some minions

Which ones are you looking for? I've seen the new comic packs of Exar Kun and Ulic Qel-Droma and that wave. We've also gotten in the cases of Jacen and Jaina and K'Kruhk and Shaak Ti figures at TRU.

Those are the cases we've been getting of Legacy figures. I think we got 3 cases this week and I think one is still in the back, I can check work if you want but I know that if my small town TRU is getting them they're more than likely in your nearest one too. The comic packs we've only gotten one case of so far, but Target definitely has them too.

Was someone here looking for a War Machine Might Mugg? I picked one up in case someone needed it. But for the life of me I can't find the post.

YES! They finally came! Left the Ash figure at my brother's apartment, so I haven't taken pics of it yet, but it is basically the same thing with blue lenses. Bonus: the 3a figure totally looks like me:

If any of ya happen to be in Jersey, the ITC Walmart in Mount Olive has a buttload of 6" iron man figures. Looks like they just restocked their toy inventory.

I have way too much on preorder - the Large Martins, Tommy Mission, two different Little Shadows, Armstrongs are all on preorder. I bought some Dropcloths for a friend, as well. I skipped the TQ's; something just had to give. I've been canceling my Hot Toys preorders just because they're easier and more reasonable to find down the line than Ash's stuff.

I mean I'm happy with what I have on order, but man it's gonna suck if something really cool comes out and I have to pay double to get it later. I totalled it up over the last 2 years, and ash has dropped $15k in merchandise, half of which is in WWR. Good news is that things should be quiet this month and next at least. The only announced thing I'm interested in is the 1/6 heavy bramble (depending on colorway), and some WWRp Dropcloths.

Xenomrph posted:Checked my TRU yesterday, the Star Wars pegs were barren. There weren't even pegs for the comic packs, either. Come to think of it, I've never seen the comic packs for sale at my local TRU. Probably because last weekend TRU had a crazy sale on Star Wars figures. All were not only $4.99 each friday-sunday, but were also buy 1 get 1 free on Friday. I guess that's a good way to clear the pegs.

Yeah, they're also 4.99 each right now through July 3rd. If we get more on the truck this Thursday Xeno I'll see if I can hold the ones you want.

drat, that was fast. I just got Steppenwolf at a local TrU. This leaves me with several figures that I want from waves 12 and 13. Thank God that I already have the older Darkseid and that I don't give a gently caress about Trigon; I can't really afford hunting for more build-a-figure parts. edit: Can you throw up a pic of Jaime? He looks awesome in press release pics, and I'd love to see if he holds up.
