Man is it just me or does the hawkeye figure not look like Jeremy Renner at all?

It's like it's a figure of one of his stunt men.

I never knew I wanted a Tobey Maguire Luke until now.

The HT Hawkeye looks like some weird, constipated Renner-Bradley Cooper mashup, tres disappointing.

Buy it with their Harrison Ford a while ago that looked off and you can have an entire shelf dedicated to Stunt Men! Hopefully, they pick up the license for Spaceballs.

What was the consensus on the marvel select deadpool? It is on sale at Amazon and similar to the Hawkeye discussion, I'm sure he isn't going to fit in with my Legends.

Marvel Select Deadpool $19.27

What's the general consensus on the Hero Mashers line? I have a Hawkeye that I bought for the sake of Hawkguy and it's not the worst thing I've ever seen. I ask because the newly opened 5 Below has a crapload of the Marvel line for $5 each. I'm thinking they could also be a distraction from all my stuff in the detolfs when we babysit our friends with kids stop over.

I have the Venom and he's a ton of fun to mess around with, but I wouldn't buy the line if you're looking for "awesome display figure" it's just great articulation and a fun gimmick but it's definitely a kids toy.

Also yeah, that new Hot Toys Hawkeye sculpt is rear end, glad I have the first movie Hawkeye still.

Was gonna setup my Dioder lights for the Detolf from Ikea. One of the packages appears to be something someone returned with no instructions or sticky pads PLUS its the older Dioder set with a beige cable, warmer lighting and a thicker power cable. I hope they'll take an exchange as I threw out the receipt weeks ago as its just lights that I took from the main lighting area. Whoever was doing stock just threw it in with all the newer sets. :/

Old, poo poo set:

Newer, easily hideable wires (plus actual instructions, pads and screws)

Ikea have an excellent return policy....until you don't have a receipt. Then they're real dicks.

You might be able to get an exchange but don't count too heavily on it.

Buy the correct one and return the old one in the new receipt.

Update on my situation: The guy at Ikea had no issue at all with me exchanging the Dioder lights and I got a proper updated set. :D

So far one shelf is done, wires are twist tied and setup too. Just need to get some tubing to cover up the back so its not TOO horrendous but otherwise im happy with this so far! :D

Need to find some weather stripping now at Home Depot to stick on the door where there is about a half-inch gap or so, maybe less. Keep whatever dust I can outta here.

As a pretty big Thanos for years now, I have to say that the head looks a little derpy. Ya know, like his brain cavity size is way too small for the sculpt of the face and body.

Marvel Legends Build-A-Figure Thanos

I found the entire wave this weekend as well. It still doesn't feel right to have the Build-a-Figure be smaller then one of the other figures in the line (movie Hulk is a head taller, wider and heavier) but I am happy to have an official Legends Thanos. Plus at least the BAFs aren't tiny people anymore like Rocket, Hit Monkey and Puck. I'm disappointed that Hellcat and Spiderwoman (who both come with an arm and a head) didn't come with variants of each. It would have been really great to have one of them come with an infinity gauntlet arm and a scowling head.

I just realized that I never shipped that Iron Monger piece to Rhino, I will look for it tonight.


Just read the news that the Marvel Select Watcher re-release was canceled a month or two ago. I don't want to pay the $75 he is going for online, but I have been dying for a Watcher figure for my shelf.

I was very proud that I'd managed to avoid having my DC Animates Batman's ankles snap like I've heard so many others' had, until I moved him to dust the shelf today :(

Is there a trick to repairing him such that he'd retain ankle articulation?

Sweet, what were the mystery items? I have the Samus so I know that one was the ball. Also I'm jelly of the Villager :)

I have that same large Samus, it's awesome. Wished I found Luigi's Mansion figure when they were out.

Toad - Coin
Diddy - Bananas
Luigi - Green 1-Up mushroom

I may be mixing Toad and Luigi's items. A random local toy shop just got a NIB Joyride Samus and is selling it for $150. It's insane how much they go for.

Are you able to fit her webbing into her arm notches at all? One of mine fits in then falls out if I let go, the other three are way too big to fit in the notch it seems like.

You have to really really push to get the webbing to stay in place. I felt the web pieces sort of click into place after about 10 seconds and it's fine now. She's fallen over a bunch of times while I've been trying to get the right pose and the webbing hasn't fallen out yet. Spider-Woman looks fantastic, easily my favorite figure of the entire wave.
