Mafex has the comic Spidey coming, so maybe they'll make some more stuff?

Overwatch Legos sound sick

I hope they have ML articulation and not Black Series articulation. I’m just glad I can finally have a Junkrat that won’t cost me $80.

I really doubt Hasbro is going to make figures from Overwatch.

With 40 million sold units, I don't think there's any way they don't make Overwatch action figures.

Good Smile distributes Figmas, but they're made by Max Factory. Good Smile being on that list only confirms that Nendoroids are still on.

Yeah but ever since the figma deal started they've only ever mentioned Good Smile in the press stuff. Max Factory gets credited as the sculptor at most.

I mean sure it could happen, but they are probably more interested in diversifying Nerf and Hasbro Gaming.

Cutting in new shelf space for a gaming property is no easy task. Gamers don’t buy toys.

They will 100% make Overwatch figures, they'll probably just start with 3.75" double packs or something to test interest and once that blows up they'll go full ham.

I have cats living in my house, and they sure as hell don’t act like I “own” them. All I can do is mitigate the damage they do in my their house.

Aphrodite posted:

Hasbro has the master Marvel license and there's still tons of non-Hasbro Marvel products, including figmas. Star Wars too.

It's probably like a right of refusal thing I guess? Hasbro doesn't make building sets, so let Lego have a contract. Maybe they don't consider Figma stuff competition to their product lines.

Is Hasbro's Kre-O still a thing?

Kroger Marketplace has a BOGO deal on shitloads of toys right now. Som just went ahead and marked them 50% off. My buddy just bought 30 different MLs after driving around town.

I was in a Kroger last week and the toy aisle was bare. I think they're getting rid of the section.

They retail at 500円 a cat. 4000円 a box of 8. Which knowing Japan, the box has every cat.

But HLJ has them for 3400円 so $30.77.

That page is a bit deceptive since it starts off by showing you the pre-order price of $1.00, and an upfront price of 7.99, however apparently they possess powerful dark magic and can tell whats in each blind-box because they will let you pre-order the set you want. I dont know if retailers get those box maps anymore.

Thats where I preordered mine. The Tenkomori (the cat that comes with all the weapon sets) is $11.00 though. The box of 8 is 2 of each set.

Hey goons, broke out the account to sell some of my old crap. This thread is where I whet my figure beak, so thought you guys would be interested. Clearing out a bunch of Toy Biz era Marvel Legends, Spider-Man Classics, X-Men Classics, along with a few Blizz figures and stuff from the NECA The Goon line. Most of them have all the accessories/bases/etc too, check out the thread to get in on it.

Christ. I laughed a little at this so the wife will definitely dig it. So this (Tenkomori) comes with the one cat and all the weapon pieces? Or you can buy the 8 piece box and get doubles of everything but not the tenkmori cat?

Edit: any idea what shipping on something like this is to the US?

It looks like each cat comes with some sort of transportation bit and a weapon. So you can order the Tenkomori but you'll only get all the weapons, so if you want all the tank treads or the helicopter blades thing, or that goddamn Roomba tank you need to get the other sets. If you just get the 8 pack I'm sure you can just build your own Meowtal Gear.

No clue on the shipping yet I'm going to let it sit in my warehouse on hlj til my other stuff is able to be bulk shipped. I use SAL but there's plenty of cheaper/slower options.
