So Google was no help on this and I figured I'd try you guys. I saw someone (I can't remember who) do a head swap putting Black Series Wedge's head on Solo movie Han's body. I think this looks cool and wanted tondonkt myself. However, it appears the heads might not both use the standard ball joint, but I don't want to potentially ruin them trying to find out. Anyone here with any experience removing either of those two figure's heads have any insight?

Are you sure it wasn’t Cassian’s body? I’ve seen pics floating around of that swap.

It looked like Solo Han's body. Brown jacket and blue pants. I'll have to dig out my Cassian and check it out. I've always liked Wedge's character, but to me the flight suit is too situational of an outfit and I'd love to have him in casual clothes.

That sounds like the young Han figure. I think they only did one cassian figure and he's wearing a blue coat.

The Cassian I have is from the three pack with Jyn and the Death trooper.

I did figure it out. While they both are indeed ball joint connectors in the head portion, Han's connector is also a ball joint inside the neck whereas Wedge is the old back/forth rocker joint.

Yeah, Wedge re-uses the old Luke Pilot body. His only new parts are the head and helmet. It’s honestly kinda disappointing because his Snowspeeder Pilot look is way better and that old flightsuit sculpt could have been improved. I guess it’s not a huge deal though since we’re getting Snowspeeder Luke to go along with Dak and the 6” scale speeder.

I kinda hope they don’t re-use either sculpt for future pilots since Mark Hamill and Denis Lawson are both shorter than the other OT pilots.

Man, this is everything I would want in a Superman statue but I can't convince myself the price tag is worth it as I know nothing about XM Studios or the quality of their products.

XM is very good but they don't have NA distribution licenses on a lot of their stuff. This means if you have any issues, you're out of luck for returns or replacements probably.

I think they might on DC though?

So I got a bit of an odd question, but this seems like the best place to ask. A while ago I got this golden Yu Gi Oh box of cards for Nostalgia's sake. Basically it has the decks/cards Yugi used in the show. As a part of this set you get all 5 pieces of Exodia, which was a HUGE deal to me when I was kid. So I kinda want to display them somehow. Any ideas?

Buy one of those stupid duel disks you children wear on your arm and place all five cards on it.

A frame shop should be able to cut a custom mat for you to display them arranged appropriately in a frame

Save yourself some money and just get the Baby Yoda separately on eBay for $200.

I usually have packages shipped to work, but we're going remote starting Friday, and I just happened to remember to contact HasbroPulse and have them change my shipping address from work to home. Then today, we get the Snake Eyes shipping notice, so my timing was impeccable.

I want to love that Snake Eyes. I've only wanted high-quality, 6" G.I. Joes with modern updates and tons of articulation, weapons, and accessories for 20 years. And it's so close to perfect, but I hate the gray pants. I wish the pants were black to match the rest of him, and only the straps, pouches, holsters, and other details were gray. I also didn't want to pay $40 for it, because I don't care about the ninja weapons or their display rack.

But I figure I can always resell or trade it later if we get an all-black Snake Eyes in the regular $20 line. My G.I. Joe nostalgia has grown A LOT over the last two years, and I'm so psyched for this line continuing (even though I don't want the Duke, Roadblock, or Scarlett we've seen). Most of my favorites Joes and Cobras are deeper cuts, but I can still hope.

I don't know what that is, but it's awesome and if it was real it'd explain batman's "Criminals are superstitious and cowardly" a lot more, cause gently caress running into that thing in a bright open field, much less a dark alley.

Went to Walmart for supplies (Splenda 😬) and found they’d released Dumbass and Best Boy (L and R, respectively).



I didn’t get either. Kirishima is OK, but I feel like the face would make a really good base for Fire Force’s Shinra.
