Super 7 are now showing off fully vac metal “toy colors” versions of Silverhawks, after all the time they spent swearing up and down that it’s not possible and that their weird cartoon versions are the only option. Gonna be a lot of angry customers who bought the first round, especially because the metal ones look amazing. Time will tell if they are as fragile as the old Kenner toys. The Cats’ Lair playset is huge and looks amazing. I want it, but where the hell would I put it?

I went for Benedikta, Jill, Clive/Torgal and Cid for now. I don't need Hugo, and I haven't finished the game because vacation has interrupted it so I don't know if I like Dion and Barnabas enough yet to buy their figures.

People in the UK are getting their Range Vipers and Big Ben. Techno Viper is in the works, we might see him very soon. Supposedly something is packed with him. What that is, is unknown. And finally:  It looks good, but I don't like the purple on the cannons. Must be some dark energon tie in.

I kinda dig it, like scorch marks from their weird sci-fi ammo. Got notified from Pulse that TF Dusty and Crimson Pythons are shipping soon.

The old model HISS with it's smaller cannons came off woefully ill armed for the size of the vehicle. Probably why I liked the HISS II that looked like it meant business.

I haven't started FF16 yet (finished TOTK and almost done with Triangle Strategy, and just started Ragnarok) but I bought Clive blind knowing I'll want at least the main character. I bet I'll want the rest later when they're more expensive.

Torpedo is great. For such a simple figure, I think it might be one of my favorites now. I don't know what it is about it, it just looks amazing.  Copperhead is a welcome addition. He really looks like a thug. Again, another simple design, but it works.  Red Sonja. I am glad I have a Sonja figure, she will go great with Conan. She is overpriced for what she is. No doubt about it. LooseCollector needs to get these figures down to a minumum of 50 a pop, which I think is still too much.

I haven't seen anything beyond the Jitsu wave inside of a store. That's 2 Walmarts and 2 Targets here in convienent driving distance, all with the same old stock. The 3rd Walmart stopped selling MOTU all together. If they aren't sold online where you are, that really sucks.

More awesome Road Brawlers coming our way https://twitter.com/toybroreviews/status/1681829667748159489?s=20 Dawgstar posted:Yeah, I don't know what arcane metrics the big box stores use to order things nowadays but mine seem to have mostly given up on a lot of different lines. I get it, at least at these stores they aren't moving. They need to clearance all of them out and see if new stock will sell better or just abandon them. Same goes for black series, one Target has about a dozen Landos that obviously no one wants.

Never forget in a GIJoe/Street Fighter crossover Jinx won the tournament by beating Bison. She didn't just beat him, she scared the hell out of him by going full Satsui No Hado that evil Ryu and Akuma uses. She also did a hadoken and dragon punch for good measure. For those who want to see the HISS via video, here's Pix Dan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lH7KQtq5W4 Shows off features, lights etc. The Last Call fucked around with this message at 22:46 on Jul 20, 2023 |

Why yes, I DO enjoy buying the same god drat figures every year with slight upgrades (X-Men '97 Legends). https://marvelousnews.com/252-33530 Definitely all in on Wolverine and Magneto and maybe on Gambit. They all look great and I hope we get more since none of the figures sport the cel-shaded look.

Looks like the last figure in the line is Bishop: https://marvelousnews.com/252-33531 Great lineup and character choices all around, glad folks will get to dip into figures they may have missed out on previously. I'm glad for a new Wolverine and Bishop as they're the two in my case with the darker yellows and clash with everybody else, and the Wolverine looks fantastic.

Does anyone know if Sideshow is reliable when it comes to limited pre-orders? As in: they'll only have 1,000 available. Or do they oversell and later cancel orders like some other retailers? I snagged one of the Spider-Man 2 Advanced Suits this morning and just want to know how confident I should feel about truly getting it.

I don't believe that I'll send up wanting to cancel. I'm just hoping they don't say "well, we got 1,000 of them in stock but sold 1,250 pre-orders so you 250 folks just had your orders forcibly cancelled due to no fault of your own"

They don’t oversell, and they won’t get less than they say (since the 1000 is a fake number for artificial scarcity anyway, non-NA distributors get them too.) They’re the most reliable.
