So I got the Alien Isolation figures. I got two aliens and they were both completely hosed. The first Alien had perfect teeth, but a hosed up dome that didn't cover the whole front of the head. The other one had hosed up teeth, and a dome that was too big for it's head, so it hung over the mouth, leaving a huge opened gap.

I pried the dome off both, but only the first one was salvageable. loving weird.


But Amanda Ripley is nice, even if she is a repaint with new arms and a head. I like the motion tracker. I'll throw some pics up later

Hard to say without having the figure in hand, but a lot of the time the plastic they use for the torso is less heat tolerant and might warp before it does what you want. You might try the warming up trick with just the little neck bit once it's out of there. I was thinking if it popped out of torso without getting damaged it might just as readily pop back in, but be careful.

Appreciate the advice, again! I got the neck joint properly back into the body after the pegs got soft enough to slip back in. Yay!

Great job there. Now seeing that head with front teeth I agree with you 100%. I like the painting technique too. I might have to try that sometime.

Holy poo poo, these 50th Anniversary GI Joes have some baffling decisions. Like full ankle articulation, but only an elbow twist. Ok, maybe only 1 baffling decision.

It's okay. The Predator is the best part because it's just a retro fitted Celtic. AKA the best Predator design.

I've always been partial to the design from AvP Requiem. Yeah it's a bad movie with a lot of problems, but the Predator's design is not among them.

I need to keep a eye out for them. And as mentioned earlier, I saw the Red Onslaught line today. But since it was just only Captain America left, I didn't get any.

I don't need one but I wanted to advise anybody who's on the fence about Reeves Superman to snap one of these up. It's a really nice figure and Louisgod is good people to do business with.

If any of you guys want to part with your red onslaught BAF parts let me know. None of the figures in that line interest me but I need that onslaught.

Also looking for Ultron's arms and legs.

Same, except for Ultron. I want Onslaught for the Magneto head we're getting but none of the figures from this Cap wave.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.
Found the new Spidey legends at Walmart. They had Gwen, Venom and Ben Reilly. I'm surprised that those were the ones left, I'd assume that Gwen and Venom would be taken first.

He comes with two extra heads and a shield. One of those heads is from the super awesome popular early 2000s version of Taskmaster.

No, I know all about Taskmaster and he's one of my favorite villains/heroes. My question remains when did he become popular enough that he'd be the hard to get figure in the series?

I have the 3.75 comic two pack with him and deadpool but I figured the reason that was so desirable was because of deadpool.
