I'm awaiting the Nargacuga/Rathalos from BBTS still, I was worrying that they would be pushed to 2021, but hopefully they release from them soon.

My figs are on top of my comic book cabinet, so every time I pull out or put back a box, everything fell over.

I've been slowly buying these off of Amazon for all the figs. Keeps them all up, organized, and I can put them in more dynamic poses

Are these big enough / sturdy enough for a Marvel Legend?

For me, I was a huge LEC nerd and would get copies of their The Adventurer magazine in several games and in the mail, and they always featured Sam and Max comics (it's actually where they kinda hit it big and became a thing). To this day they're my favorite comic book characters.


This is a pretty cool recentish interview with him:

https://www.arcadeattack.co.uk/steve-purcell-sam-and-max/

That’s great!

And yeah of course we only knew about Sam and Max from the Lucasarts material, it’s not as if I was super wired into the indie comics underground in junior high, but in the end I got into the comics more than the game. They’re very good comics.

That's the thing though, the comics came out AFTER the LEC Adventurer stuff. It's one of those odd things. He talks about it in that interview.

Thanks for that interview link. I had no idea he worked on Ed Grimley which I loved (I must sayyyyyy.)

A high school friend is friends with Andrew at BossFight, but this connection has not resulted in me receiving my Sam and Maxes any sooner. I remember Fuzz and I both being up to preorder them the minute they went online on BossFight's website, but I later cancelled and resubmitted my order to combine it with another friend's to save on shipping, so I should have 3 Sams and 2 Maxes arriving at some point.

Can you have him provide an update on Bucky O'hare? I desperately don't want that line to die.

I don’t think that’s right, he referred to the original game as an adaptation of his past comics and talked about people at the company being familiar with the comics... he did a bunch of new ones while he was there, though.

forums aren't letting me put pics in my post for some reason but Toyark's got the scoop from the Tamashii Nation event: https://news.toyark.com/2020/11/05/tamashii-nation-2020-virtual-event-dragon-ball-z-reveals-409071#images

SSJ2 Goku revealed finally. Not sure yet how I feel about it, his hairline seems kinda nuts but I'd like to see more angles/faces. The new SSJ1 hair sculpt is kinda neat but the face looks like dogshit, I hope they don't roll that out. I do like that they showed some prototypes for variants on existing figures (Yamcha, Tien, poseable Chiaotzu and base Vegeta) to recreate the splash image from the end of the cell saga Head Cha La OP and I also hope that means we get a Krillin re-release. Hit will be a nice addition for my Super cabinet as well.

They need to release a Kuririn without the blue shirt and with the kung-fu slippers rather than boots. That's what he wears in the saiyan saga/Namek saga and in Super.

Keep in mind that Bandai loves to show off prototype figures at these events that may never see the light of day again. It's happened countless times with Dragon Ball figures. Until they officially solicit something, I just take them as pretty display pieces.

Good call on Krillin I would prefer that outfit as well. And yeah I'm not expecting an official release on the others but they are neat to look at. SSJ2 at the very least is probably a safe bet. I was kinda hoping for the official release to have the ripped shirt look from right before he fights Vegeta but I had no expectation that they wouldn't just cheaply reuse the same mold.

I'm most excited for Piccolo 2.0. He's my favorite character, the 1.0 launched the line and was the first I bought. And it looks great.

I really love the royal color scheme for cobra commander but I'm not sure if that's released yet.

Also I know you posted it earlier but which miles figure is that? Trying to decide which one to get and was looking at mafex.

That’s the 3rd party 1/6 Young Rich miles. Pretty good. Nice hold over until the HT figure comes out.

Pushed back to December last I heard, pretty much every Mafex has been pushed back weeks or months it sounds like.

AmiAmi still has him as October, so he’s currently holding up a couple of other things I had in an October order. They’re usually quicker at splitting something off than this.

Yes. Speculation is until April, because Japan Post announced re-zoning and rate changes for the US for then. The US is being kicked out of Zone 2 with Canada and the rest of the Americas into its own new zone with the worst rates.

It’s a result of Trump leaving that postal agreement thing. This will benefit noted American business DHL, just as planned!

I thought the Bruiser the Betelgusian Berserker Baboon and Corsair Canard Deadeye Duck were relatively new. That was never an IP I was very familiar without outside of like the first line of the theme song though.

The Venomized Punisher from Marvel Unlimited last year is awesome but I don't imagine most people are okay with dropping ~$130 for a Marvel Legends figure at this point.
