Somebody really ought to sit Todd down and tell him that these silly action figures really aren't bought by the 8-13 year old anymore and more weirdo completionist adults who JUST want a Cass Cain figure, darn it.

As of this moment the classified Dragonfly has hit 17, 072 backers. Two days remaining. Can it possibly hit the last goal of 19,000?

Some predicted this would happen, others had doubts. It should hit 19,000 if it goes the way it's going, we'll see soon enough. Wonder if the mid lull will prompt Hasbro to lower the goals for unlocks, due to them being higher this time around than the Hiss by 3,000.

Gonna need this one. I’ve always liked the dead astronaut look, and I have an orange suited one tattooed on my leg. This is part of a 3-pack, but later down the line it’ll be available by itself. Hopefully they don’t change the color. https://twitter.com/joefisto/status/1680330233499754496?s=46&t=2Vl5mZOAuXyv2LbW1v-6cQ

Recently picked up a few random things- Cobra Viper 3-pack: one of the guys came with 2 left hands Retro Gung-Ho: I like this one better than the first release Bazooka: Good, but the weapons are very gummy Rock and Roll: Great all around Torpedo: Same Professor Indy: Good for just a guy in a suit Ultimate Captain America: Solid figure Monet St. Croix: Same Masterverse Two Bad and the new Mer-Man: I love this poo poo, the goofier the better Andor and B2Emo: Solid Saw Guerrero: Good figure with a lot of detail 40th Anniversary Biker Scout and Stormtrooper: love the packaging, makes me feel like a kid again Gundam Universe Heavyarms:Good for the price point and I finally completed the team Mezco Wonder Woman: Great figure but the joints are a little loose McFarlane Wonder Woman: Ok Playmates Admiral Kirk: Found on clearance at Wal-Mart for $5. Worth it. Loose Collector Red Sonja: Great all around.

It's actually a 2 pack -- they have the mythic legions skeleton version as the other part. You are probably seeing the other LegionsCon exclusive which is another version of the original fan voted Vorgus Vermillion. You can actually make this figure right now with the Cosmic legions plus a mythic skeleton. The paint would have to be added, though. It's actually a tribute to the founder of the Facebook group for Mythic Legions (Walter). It's going to be great. They will have them at the show 11/23 but they will almost certainly split them and have them up on the webpage in the late winter/spring. Both versions are going to be pretty popular I expect. I don't think they'll change the color -- the convention exclusive is going to come with an extra alien head

I saw a reply on their IG that it would be availble as a single pack, so I will be patient. If I need to orange it, I suppose I will then. Here's my watercolory skeleton astronaut for fun

Ollie’s had most the aoa cyclops wave so I guess I have that wave now. Also hand ninjas popped up again so I have too many hand ninjas. I need a few foot soldiers to make my daredevil/tmnt scene shelf.

She seemed to be the peg-warmer of the wave for some reason, despite being a good and popular character in the comics. The new figure might as well be a statue, the way her cape pins down all her articulation, but she's a lovely statue.

The clearance collector strikes again. I was going to build Ch’od but I really don’t want to pony up for the other half. At any rate: I needed an Emma for the xmen arcade display. Now they just need a Pryde of the XMen kitty.

She’s pretty, but IMO the Hellfire Club version is better for what it’s worth. Still quite a very good mass market figure, ESPECIALLY for Target’s 50% off discount.

The best rumors I've seen were ghost or the shuttle from bad batch. But with ahsoka coming up right when this haslab would wrap up, it seems to point directly at the ghost. Though it would be very hasbro to swing and miss by announcing something like a maz kanata's bar hangout playset.

When does the Star Wars one start? You have 30 days to cancel the Gi Joe Haslab if you want to hedge your bets, you could back it now and jump to the Star Wars one if it’s more enticing.

New Mattel Creations MOTU fig, Motherboard from Revelations. Looks neat enough, but I don't care about the character at this point since there wasn't one in the show. This might've been better saved for after season 2 airs.  If you want one though, it goes up on the 21st. https://creations.mattel.com/products/masters-of-the-universe-masterverse-motherboard-action-figure-hpl13
