What kind of name are they under? I'm waiting on the AoU Hulk to complete my Avengers team and I could do $50 for a stand-in until he comes out.

A reverse image search should bring up a lot of em. http://www.ebay.com/itm/151701091951 They are on ebay as well, apparently.

Ironically, the day I quit lego forever was the day I realized they really were going to make Bizarro a SDCC exclusive and never release him at retail. I have no idea what they are thinking with the sudden swerve into fan-unfriendly-ness but I'm not feeding it.

I finally decided I want to buy a Hot Toys. Back home in Huntsville there is a comic shop that usually has a few in stock. I figure since u am in Houston, surely one of the local places will have some. No dice at either of the much larger shops here. Though they were both staffed by nice people and had lots of selection. Anyone in the area know a store that might have a STRIKE suit captain America?

Go to any Bedrock City and ask for it, if they don't have it there they can call the other locations to check, and if it's available have it transferred to whatever location is most convenient for you. Nan's and Third Planet are both on 45, on shpherd and a little west of Kirby, respectively, so if the first one you try doesn't have it, that's like a five minute drive to the next one. If you don't mind a bit of a schlep, there's Pop Culture Company, which ins on 10, just west of beltway 8. They have a lot of higher end stuff like Hot Toys, so if you strike out everywhere else, it'd be worth checking there.

Gammatron 64 posted:Also, I saw the Jurassic World toys in Target, and hoo boy do they suck. You know what they really need to do? S.H. Monsterarts Jurassic Park. I mean, I pretty much have all the Heisei Godzilla kaiju now. Give me movie accurate articulated dinosaurs. Does anyone know if any of the higher-end toy companies are getting a shot at Jurassic World? It seems like such a no-brainer. There's a huge nostalgia market, I'd assume, who'd probably be willing to buy. Or maybe not.  A properly articulated movie raptor would be the best poo poo though.

Not sure if this is already a well known source, but I just found this: http://stores.ebay.ca/The-Outer-Reaches-eShop Looks like it's a great place to get deals on figures assuming you don't care about the condition of the box.

Are their prices pretty comparable with just ordering from Sideshow? It looks like one of the Bedrock City locations is my best bet location wise. I'll give them a call tomorrow and see if they have it. Thanks for the heads up.

Maybe Nan's charges a bit more, I'm not sure. If you're that far north, it might be worth checking Hastings in Conroe. I know they carry Hot Toys too.

I don't collect Lego, but there is a set that comes with Flash, Wonder Woman, Batman, Captain Cold, and Grodd, with a banana truck that Grodd is supposed to be attacking. And the little panicky banana truck driver is dressed in yellow, with a blue apron with the Bluths' frozen banana stand logo on it. He could be Michael or George Michael! http://www.groovebricks.com/lego-review-76026-gorilla-grodd-goes-bananas/ https://www.google.com/search?q=arr...iw=1280&bih=685 Big Bad Voodoo Lou fucked around with this message at 04:20 on Jun 23, 2015 |

Saw the Emperor Palatine figure at Kroger of all places today. Not bad, but honestly he would been so much better if he didn't have a cloth cape. Or at least made the hood plastic and the rest cloth. I probably pick him up when he goes under $15 if still around at that point. [edit] I ended up buying him anyway. Honestly he pretty out of the box. Just wish he had some force lightning or his lightsaber to go with his cane. Rirse fucked around with this message at 22:35 on Jun 23, 2015 |

There are a couple of odd design decisions, why wouldn't they make it so the helmet can look up so he can fly, why is one hand weirdly splayed? And the aforementioned paint. Still, it's a nice base figure with some good detail.

Funko is the oddest company. They're not bad (sometimes they are) but they make some downright baffling articulation design choices. Like Mal here...

Anyone know of a good 1/6 scale missile launcher? Not a rocket launcher, but an artillery piece that has the missile sitting on it waiting to fly. Not those huge bastards that are like 1/37 scale but something for a 1/6th scale missile. Even a kitbash idea would work for me. Just kinda having no luck whatsoever with this.

1/6 scale would be much larger than 1/37, wouldn't it?

It would probably give people a better idea if you gave the relative size you're looking for in inches or something. And maybe a picture, because an artillery missile launcher is anything from like a box on a tripod to a tank.

He's 1/6, hence needing the missle to be 1/6 and the launcher to be around the same scale. If anyone can point me towards a model kit or something to kitbash, even that would work. It wasn't a HUGE launcher in the movie.
