Decent target clearance score. They had the neca tmnt sf packs half off. If anyone wants the turtles let me know. I think there’s a second of each if anyone wants the whole thing.

I found a good deal to get the variants as well. Though I don’t know if I’ll put them out, seeing as I don’t have the room now.

LOL it’s a Street Fighter JR fig from Resaurus in 99 so good call. She’s a lil gremlin :haw:

These are my first two Qposket and I gotta say they are quite nice!! They don’t feel fragile, actually pretty solid. The faces are very well done and detailed. The eyes are a different material, a bit more glossy so you see a shininess in them. Gives them a bit more liveliness.

A local comic shop has some of the Resaurus and Sota figures for sale at not horrible prices. Debating a few.

drat, I remember seeing all those SF figures for sale at TRU years ago and kind regret not picking up some of the staples. I was debating snagging some of the TMNT/SF 2-packs that Target was carrying but refuse to spend $40 or whatever it was for only one figure.

Those X-Men/SF 2-packs when I was a kid ruled, most of the figures were huge upgrades from the prior ToyBiz builds and seeing them in a VIDEO GAME STORE rocked.

Those are what got me back into doll collecting initially. The ML Iron Man and Spider-Man (2??) Spidey put it over the top.
My Target had those two packs for half off for the interested btw :holymoley:

The MvC Cap was probably the best Cap figure ever made, until Marvel Legends was invented

It seems... A little late for that.

I know they planned a season 2, but as far as I'm aware that's on the back burner in favor of the Waller spinoff.

I suppose because they don’t think it’ll actually sell that well? They do KS for games sometimes (the Ghostbusters and Epic Spell Wars: ANNIHILAGEDDON games), but they also sell statues of Batman’s hand and chibi Harley Quinn so no idea why Peacemaker is the one to hedge on a crowdfund.

Apparently, you are not the only one who wondered about that:



Not sure that answers why they're making bobbleheads, though.

I ended up buying a classic Spider-Woman on eBay when I found an OK deal. Even though there may be a new one coming out, it’s part of a two pack and won’t be cheap, and it looks like they are reusing the same molds. If it turns out to secretly be a huge upgrade, well, maybe I’ll get two of her.

I also picked up another wish list Marvel guy which is the Walgreens Silver Surfer figure. I really hope they redo that guy with pinless joints someday because that guy looks best when he’s really smooth and featureless, but the store exclusive was pretty recent and they reissued him as a pack in with Galactus too so it will probably be years before that happens, probably not until there’s an MCU version. And Silver Surfer fuckin rules and I want one.

Nice! Glad it made it there okay, Xeno got theirs yesterday too. Xeno, definitely agree with the odd arm articulation though what’s missing is a bicep cut; without it, you can’t do the iconic “arm on the canon” pose. No clue why Jakks hasn’t included it on any Samus toy.

Are their collectibles any good? I've tried a few of their KS games and they've tended to be low effort clones.

This is Helena, and she does not have time for your poo poo.



Consider yourselves warned.

My only gripe is that she doesn’t come with a crossbow but ah well. Other than that, she’s pretty nifty. Nightwing’s next month, I think, once he arrives I’ll get the Hush crew together for a nice group shot.

Was the lack of crossbow due to the DC no guns thing? Seems wild she wouldn't come with one.

One would imagine. The recent reissue of the Amazing Yamaguchi Batman had the grapnel gun of the first release removed, so anything gun-like is probably off the table regardless of being an actual gun or not.

That’s Xanathar. He’s a beholder crime boss in the Dungeons & Dragons Forgotten Realms setting.

He has a goldfish because it is an inexpensive low maintenance pet. Not all of us have the money, space, and free time to properly care for a dog. :colbert:

Oh I saw the new GotG Marvel Legends at Walmart today. So those are out there if you are looking.

Was racking my brain trying to figure out what Xanathar reminded me of and finally realized the eye is reminscent of the eye guardian in Big Trouble In Little China. It's dope as hell.

Pretty sure the beholder from D&D predated Big Trouble in Little China by many years, I always took that thing to be a direct homage to D&D, but I could be mistaken.

Anyway it’s cool and I want all the D&D monsters including both owlbears.

I saw the gelatinous cube toy at a GameStop and considered it. Despite just being… a cube, it looks really cool, what with being able to stick weapons and other figs in it.

I know it doesn’t glow in the dark but I wonder if it’s translucent blue coloring does “light up” under black light :confused: it would be really neat to have a big rear end CUBE in my GITD collection. I could even stick Bob from Reboot in there and treat is as a game cube! WARNING INCOMING GAME.
