That Sentry, Hawkeye, and Iron Fist were sculpted and shown a long time ago, but Hasbro wasn't able to fit them into any waves or even confirm they would be released
Does that mean there still might be hope that we'll see releases of some of the other unreleased figures, like Lyra (the Red She Hulk alternate from a few waves back)?

Man I haven't really bought figures in a long time, but I never knew Hasbro finally made a Sarlacc Pit...and it part of a expensive Target exclusive. Any idea if anyone ever sells it separate from the rest of the set?
This is pretty cheap.

A school festival is a festival that takes place at our school!
Does anyone have any suggestions for a good custom 1/6 scale website that I can buy from? My wife is a big Norman Osborn fan and I was wanting to see if I could find a custom 1/6 scale Osborn head to match up with the Hot Toys Iron Patriot that we have.

Maybe, though you'd more than likely see more topical (ie Avengers) characters or fan-favorites, like Blade or Bulldozer before somebody like Lyra.

I never understood how in the 89 Batman they could have gotten the Bat insignia wrong.

There was actually a legal reason behind that -- when they were making the batsuits in preparation for filming, WB hadn't yet acquired the rights to use the actual Batman oval logo, so they made the version with the extra "feet" to avoid a potential lawsuit. Something like that, I remember hearing about it ages ago.

Ended up buying this because all the previous sold ones were even more then this. Shame it missing the little plastic desert thing, but I can probably just easily make something similar.

I've decided to keep both emblems and use them for different things. The shiny metal one is going to be my hero piece that I use in the display. The matte plastic one I texture painted so it looks a little like cave rock, and I'll be incorporating it into the same textured structure I make for the rest of the pieces to fit into. I really like the way this turned out. Somewhat reminds me of the 89 opening credits.



And my metal milled belt pods should be here today. It may take me a little while to do a proper paint job on them that complements the rest of the belt. I may have to do a little grinding to get them to be a perfect fit, and then comes the very, very difficult step of drilling the mounting holes in the belt strap to attach the pods :gonk:

If the pods for any reason don't come out perfect, I don't think I'm even going to put them on. The belt as-is looks perfect.

So that Vehicle MattyCollector is releasing this month which is not part of the MOTUC Subscription service is over 100 bucks.

Now while it comes with a Man at Arms figure, the vehicle itself is not really that big and is just slightly larger than the beasts. But it does not look like a 100 dollar toy. After shipping it's going to be running around the same price as a Transformers Titan Class figure like Metroplex who is two feet tall and who's vehicle mode is actually larger. Seriously shipping is around 1/3rd of the price of the figure itself.

It's honestly something that screams ripoff moreso than anything else they've released before.

I dunno Granamyr for $80 was pretty bad. But he still sits on my shelf even if I've taken all the other MOTUC figures down so maybe he was worth it in the long run. Castle for $275 was pretty bad too.

Ram is probably one of the first that I'm just gonna skip. Someone is hooking me up with the Man-At-Arms head and that's really all I need from it.

Also those mini sets for $20 is really bad. And the $75 jumbo vintage figures that don't actually look like the vintage figures. Everything Matty does is bad, but I still like Classics so whatevs.

If those were even 10-15 and you could get them in a regular store like TRU or target, I'd be all over them. Like transformers robot heroes.

Man I wished KidRobot would do a MOTU line. I think they would knock it out of the park.
