Not sure how the gently caress Stryfe is getting a Legends figure, but I'll take it. That dude was one of my favorites back in the '90s Toy Biz days. Any chance of a running change (a la TASM2/CA:TWS) that replaces Storm with the unreleased Rogue from the Wolverine series?

I think the folks at Hasbro said they'd like to squeeze the figure into a wave somewhere and it'd make sense to include her in an X-men specific one though I think a lot of people want a 1st appearance Storm more than anything.

I don't trust any running change that isn't movie based to make it out anymore.

I'm excited about that Jubilee figure, but a little bummed that she's apparently the BAF. Guess I'll have to start learning the stocking schedules.

Oh my god, is this the SDCC exclusive or an alleged DOFP wave? Please be the former, I don't know if retailers will go for the latter.

Agrias120 posted:The text next to her seems to indicate that she's being introduced as the BAF. That's a really weird BAF. And the GotG wave has six figures, I figured they'd at least do a DOFP Sentinel or something as the BAF.

Agrias120 posted:The text next to her seems to indicate that she's being introduced as the BAF. Yeah, keeping her separate and considering what we already know suggests it should be a standalone wave and BAF and I'm guessing the 6 in the header probably means June? I doubt it's SDCC exclusive.

Any recommended stands for posing 6"'s? My D-Arts Megaman and SH Predator Wolf are boring without stands. http://www.amazon.ca/Bandai-Tamashi...i+Nations+stage $42 seems steep as gently caress.

Quick base pics. Not the greatest pics, but I was in a hurry to get home and pop my own MOS Superman on there. It's a pretty cool base, but honestly it's a little tinier than I had hoped for. The pose is sort of a semi squat pose that he used in the movie when he was fighting Zod and had the car drop on him. There's not much room for the feet, but overall I think if you'd place him on the ground or flying through the air somehow, this would make an awesome backdrop, especially considering how punchy Zod looks. I spent about 15$ on it shipped, and I'm not too disappointed. Once I get a chance later I'll start trying to figure out a better pose for him.

This almost looks like it would be awesome for power impact points on Hot Toys. But that requires more of a diorama style posing situation. Looks like it'd be scaled perfect for like Play Arts or similar though.

Amazon CA is just out of stock at the moment, so thats an rear end in a top hat seller. They have Act 5s though. Personally I like the look of the 4s more; but 5s work just as well especially if you got a heavy figure like a diecast robot.

Yeah, it was a good experiment and in a bigger diorama it would look awesome. Have these Japanese scale figures always been this loving awesome?

Most of my collection is from that line, but I can't get enough of Karate Bugmen, so it works well. It doesn't hurt that they have some of the finest representations of iron man and war-machine too, here's a look at war-machine: This thing is just shy of 6 inches, and is just... man, I can NOT say enough nice things about it.

Heads up for anyone who wants it, the Giant Godzilla from Jakks is on sale for $33.99 at K-Mart. I'm still debating whether or not to pick one up, I gotta see if I even have room for a figure that massive...

No heavily armoured cop. 2000AD shut it down. Got a notice from One Sixth Bruce via Facebook. Might just be them though since they are a UK company. I ordered with Monkey Depot to be safe.

MonkeyDepot got back to me with this: "Hello. We have sold out of our preorders for that figure. We should still be receiving it as scheduled. Thank you." Take that for what you will.
