Bushifox posted:Yeah, I just have a hard time paying 60 bucks for a 6 inch figure...It pained me to pay 20 for a MOTUC figure. Yeah, but this 6" figure is way loving better than any MOTUC figure in terms of sculpt and weight. Articulation is kinda limited, but gently caress he looks awesome as all hell and his huge tail makes him way bigger than any MOTUC figure. While he lacks in height, he more than makes up for it in bulk. No wonder why the military can't scratch him! Speaking about that... I thought it would be AWESOME to have an accessory kit that has tanks, MASER cannons, jets and an atomic blast for Godzilla (I feel a little gypped that I didn't get the first edition w/ atomic fire.) Turns out they actually DID make this set! Awesome! ...It also turns out that it was a limited Japanese only web exclusive and is about $200 on ebay. gently caress.

I can't seem to find it, I might have sold it I guess. Either way, I guess it would've been the right one since I did get the WW & variant but only one Ares. Sorry

I've actually got an unopened wonder woman and ares sitting around...Looking at the prices, I'm thinking of scalping them on ebay though so I don't know if I want to part out the legs.

I am just needing them for a custom so it is not a major need atm. It can sit on the WIP bench for awhile longer until I get them. I got another one I am hoping to finally get done here soonish. Thankfully most of the parts I am needing for that I already have or are dirt cheap to get.

I know the boots are different, but if I remember right, the Bane BAF uses the same leg sculpt if that would help at all.

I really, really hope that Hicks' likeness is better than the Kyle Reese figure.

As the holidays draw near, I've begun putting together a pretty simple GI Joe Christmas display. I got a few snow-themed Joes from eBay, but didn't remember that 30-year old plastic would yellow over time. What are your best solutions for whitening? Edit: I'm aware of the magic eraser, which is fine for a one-time use, but those things are essentially sanding the toy. Red fucked around with this message at 23:17 on Dec 12, 2012 |

The alien looks cool as poo poo, but did they always have those weird handle bars on their forearms?

The_Doctor posted:They did in 'Aliens'. That's the main reason why the Revoltech 'Aliens' Warrior comes with 2 sets of forearms, so you can display it either way and still have it be "screen accurate". I like it with the arm-blades, personally. And yeah, the new NECA Alien looks fantastic. I have their older one and love it, but this looks like a huge improvement.

anyone interested in my sideshow rock n roll? I haven't even taken it out of the polybag it came in, just not interested in the figure. I'd trade him for a sideshow crimson guard, or something in that vein.

We're getting NECA marines, AND they have leg articulation? Which orphanage did I fund in a past life?

Someone buy my ML Sentinels! Every so often I get upset that I wiped out my Marvel/DC collection, then I see the MRSP on new figures and get over it.

Idk if you have a TJ Maxx nearby, but mine yesterday had 3-4 MU Sentinels in the comic colors for $30 each. Also my Hot Toys Avenger's Cap shipped so I'll post some photos when he arrives next week!

You do not want to gently caress with me. Check it out! Hey, man, don't worry. Me and my squad of ultimate bad-asses will protect you! Check it out. Independently targeting particle-beam phalanx. WHAP! Fry half a city with this puppy. We got tactical smart missiles, phase plasma pulse rifles, RPGs. We got sonic, electronic ball breakers! We got nukes, we got knives, we got sharp sticks...  Hicks likes to keep this handy for close encounters...  And the new Warrior Alien is looking fiiiine...

Hicks' likeness isn't as good as the McFarlane one. He looks... old. Like they were using his likeness from 'Planet Terror' rather than 'Aliens'. Oh well. The new Alien looks righteous, and Hudson is perfect.

I really want to see Hudson's alternate head where he isn't panicking. I'm hoping for an asskicking "you want some too?!" kind of face. NECA's Kyle Reese sculpt isn't as abysmal as people are saying (IMO), but I'm ready to admit that they didn't REALLY need to pay for Biehn's likeness if this is the best they can do. Xeno I'm pretty sure we'll be trading tips on how to execute a proper headswap at some point next year. I'm pretty glad I sprang for the McFarlane Hicks with the helmet, since I have a sneaking suspicion that NECA's not going to include one with both figures.

After my latest trip to TRU, I found my second favorite Christmas Decoration. I love this time of the year, its the only time I don't get the weird look/judging from cashiers when buying action figures for myself.
