Speaking of large figures. This thing is going to be 2 feet tall. From NECA.

Excellent. We're 1/3 of the way to a Real Doll line of Marvel characters.

I still don't understand the appeal of bigger action figures. Never have, from back in the days of Toy Biz and their 90s X-Men line. They don't mix with your normal guys so it seems like you'd want to buy nothing but 12 inchers, but they don't make half the variety of characters they do in the normal lines.

Movie figures, or figures of real people look way better in larger scales, you lose a lot of detail in the 6" versions of them, whereas drawn characters turn out a lot better (usually)

Hasbro Toy Fair News:

Star Wars Black Series

Also some 3.75 inch figure news, but I don't think too many people in this thread collect them.

I've mentioned before that I have collected 3.75" Star Wars toys since I was 2 years old and, as cool as the Black Series look, I'm a little reluctant to start over now. Really all I want to know about that line is: are they going to make small-scale TFA figures any more collector-friendly or are they doubling down on the 1970's articulation?

I've heard that select TFA characters will get the 3.75 black series treatment. The problem is that unless it has a helmet, the face sculpt is garbage.

Not sure if this is the right thread or subforum or not, but does anyone else have the Kotobukia Mega Man (the model kit that makes this awesome, super poseable figure. Thought I should include that since I had to look up the name myself)? Are the E tank logos stickers or are they some kind of rub on transfer thing? I can't find an edge.

I have that model kit. All the decals are waterslide, they don't peel up from an edge. You cut it down to a good size, and when wet, slide the decal film off the paper and onto the tank. As it dries it adheres to the plastic. Google waterslide decals and I'm sure there's a video that explains it better than I did.

Awesome, thank you very much! My E tank will finally look right, provided I haven't scratched it up too badly.

Probably just because of body reuse as Hasbro are so fond of. I dont think they can get a single character perfect because of it

Im not sure why this is the funniest thing in the world to me but it is.

In other, better news check out this dope rear end Miles Morales finally on a nice, smaller body! Actually looks like a teenager now!



Looks like they're doing an Ultimate Peter Parker Spidey on the same body. Good stuff. Looks like you could make a decent Damian Wayne Robin out of it.

I will burn my dread.

That Castlevania figure is really strange, it's the first one of the "NES graphics" figures that I don't think really works. But I might still be tempted to get it based on my love for the series.

You did start by calling a 16 year old girl sexy, and then moved on to talking about how happy you were that the Miles Morales figure had a small, lithe body that really looked like a teenager.

I don't watch star wars. You could tell me that new dude with the cross lightsaber is a 16 year old girl and Id have to take your word for it.

Mile Morales is 13 years old, and you talked about how happy you were that the figure accurately recreated his
