Got my last of that Classified wave in hand with Shooter today. Packaged by somebody who knew to protect it on every side actually! While the palette for her outfit is rather simple I really really dig her look over all. Bit of a loose head/neck on mine though so be careful if you are changing the hair/gas mask.

 I'm not much of an action figure collector anymore, but I recently found out that Hasbro made an action figure of my favourite D-list X-Man, Maggott, and I just had to get it. And I have to say: I'm surprised by how good it looks! This is the first Marvel Legends figure I've ever bought, and I was expecting something much smaller and lower-quality in terms of sculpting and paint applications. This is not that far off from something like Bring Arts or Figuarts in both of those categories, which is surprising when you consider the massive price disparity. I also like that he came with a giant machine gun. I know it's meant for the build-a-figure, but I like to think of it as a nod to his roots as a 90s anti-hero.

Dawgstar posted:https://twitter.com/preterniadotcom/status/1720509768618451022 That looks like an extremely good Voltron but that price is a little absurd. It’s not the first Voltron to be released with a crazy price tag. I would hope the gimmick is that it’s huge, but I don’t know. You can also think of it as five action figures at $144 each that combine into one big one. BBTS isn’t always the cheapest, somebody might offer a better deal. I want it, obviously, but I can’t afford that poo poo.

Many of the newer Marvel Legends, especially the X-Men, have been nearing Bring Arts/Figuarts/Mondo level quality for a very reasonable price. VHS Cyclops and the just released '97 Wolverine are some of the best X-Men figures they've made and rival the more high-end offerings.

If I’m going by my list I made when I dipped back in, I’m only missing marrow (and a few figures could stand upgrades). But lmao at sticking to my original list. I keep buying that garbage.

I'll take 2 Deathbirds please, classic and jim lee. Kinda wish we were getting non-empress Lilandra first. I always dug that look more. Just need Raza, Hephzibah, and a few dozen Imperial Guards to close out that corner of X-men lore.

What's the best lion Voltron that is 12" or smaller and in the $50 range? Does such a thing even exist? I don't give a poo poo if it separates into the lions, just something that looks nice on my one robot shelf. I got an excellent KO vehicle Voltron for about $12 that stands about 7" and looks terrific. It even separates into some of the components, just not 15 separate vehicles. I saw a review of the Lucky Cat Elvis, but it seems kind of fiddly and too small for some of that delicate engineering. Also, has anyone ever made a cool Cyclone that is affordable, transformable, and not a fragile piece of crap?

Ollie’s is a goldmine. Just found the Fortnite boat for $15. Shitload of Marvel Legends but hardly any Joe stuff. Recently picked up the stealth shield and a Trapper Wolf helmet.

The paint seems to need UV to charge up, as it doesn't really do it with artificial light, but those photos are from after about 30 seconds in front of a window, with frosted glass, at that.

Snacksmaniac posted:Well my target Spider-Man shipped so I got that going for me. As a big silver and bronze (? 1980s) Marvel fan, I wish I could say I was a fan of the "anniversary" figures but I didn't love Captain America and Iron Man was only ok (I have been eyeing the Model 1 figure). This figure (60th sculpt with a blue colored spider on the back) is very much my jam, though. And I've been mildly irritated that I missed out on that original release.

BBTS has a big sale on a bunch of Super7 Ultimates. It's not specifically called out as a daily or weekly sale so I have no idea how long it will last

Thought about getting the Simpsons (have an unopened homer) but the rest of the line might be dead. Stuff got pushed way back for preorders. Wonder if they’re going to slowly vanish. Snacksmaniac fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Nov 6, 2023 |

I was re-arranging my GID stuff and I noticed my Ultimates NYCC GID Muckman’s left leg has somehow become super loose. I’m not sure what has happened because it’s been standing there unmoved for the last several months. The leg is now so loose that it can’t stand on its own. Luckily some double sided tape has helped Muckman to stand again. I think I’m going to tap out on Super7 figs. My GID foot soldier broke out of the box and now this Muckman seems to be getting loosey. I’m afraid of dropping $100 CAD for these going forward.

I understand that Super 7 is a smaller company and smaller runs of figures cost more but $30 for a Mo Sizlak is $15 too much.
