Aphrodite posted:I mean like outside the case, on the wooden top piece. Sorry, I should have clarified. They don't rate the top piece as it's not "officially" a shelf / intended to have anything on top of it. The shelves are rated to 8lbs, so they'll only ever give you the weight of 8lbs to save the liability of you put something over that weight on top and the shelf wont support it.

Fuzz posted:The Tamashii stands end up being a better deal. Honestly, at this point I've bought so many Mafex and Revoltech figures that I have stands out the rear end, didn't realize the prices have gone up. What are the best stands for the Revoltech figs? I've only collected minimates, but think I'm going tho spring for the Marvel Revoltech figs.

Fuzz posted:They're the one line that I get everything for, pretty stoked for Wolverine and REALLY hoping they do something ballsy like have Nightcrawler as their 6th figure, though I'd bet it'll probably be Carnage or Silk or something. An awesome Sabretooth in the Venom style would be totally okay, too. That would be awesome. I'm a huge X-Men fan, so either of those would be great. I saw a youtube video where someone mentioned they thought Carnage was up next, but can't find any other info on it so I'm not sure if that is true or they were just speculating. Is HLJ the cheapest place to order these? Looks like Deadpool is the only one in stock at the moment. Should I expect that these get restocked or are they fairly limited?

Saw it on reddit, but apparently the Amazing Yamaguchi Wolverine is no longer coming with the cigar accessory.  As a cigar smoker this bummed me out quite a bit. Sure hope if they are indeed leaving it out that the smoking hand is replaced with a different pose.

Fuzz posted:To be fair, how could you NOT want to gently caress Guts? I care! I picked up Spider-man, Deadpool, and Venom a while back, and have Spider-Gwen and some minimates are on the way. Venom is indeed awesome, but I found him a bit harder to pose than Spider-man and Deadpool. Edit: Anyone have any idea when they'll announce the next figure? Haven't seen anything since Wolverine was announced other than some youtube speculation that Carnage is next. Couldn't find any validity to that though.

Thanks for the info. I'm also hoping for Sabertooth to pair with Wolverine. Nightcrawler would be awesome as well. My favorite Marvel character has always been Beast so I'd love to see him get a figure, although I realize that is probably a long shot. I wouldn't be surprised to see a Thor or Black Panther figure and either of them would be pretty cool. A Miles Spider-Man would be cool, but I think that might be too much Spiderverse for my tastes. I could go for other villains though (Doc Ock, Lizard, Kraven, Black Cat)

Anyone notice the arm / hand on the left there? Little bit of speculation that it could be a Black Widow or some sort of Evangelion redo. Black Widow wouldn't be my first choice, but I could see her being pretty cool.

Anyone know where I can get replacement stands for Amazing Yamaguchi / Revoltech figs? Venom was apparently too heavy and the peg that sticks in his back snapped the middle peg of pole that connects to the stand, which basically renders all parts useless...

vkeios posted:The fun part is I'm not watching the Star Wars trailer, since I know I'm gonna see the movie anyways. So for all I know you guys are just loving with me with your made-up Star Wars character, hell I've only seen one thing in stores that might be a porg and that was a mug shaped like their head and for all I know it was just another wookie. I've watched all of the trailers, and I don't get it. These things are so popular (The Funko chases are going for goofy prices). The movie isn't even out yet. Are these things really that endearing just based on their looks? I guess so, but I just don't get it.

The Rage posted:Also anyone get the Revoltech Magneto yet? He might be my breaking point. It’s like they captured MvC Magneto perfectly. Mine is on the way, and due next Thursday. Early reports are that he is awesome, but his cape is as heavy as the figure and you need to use the stand. Also, some reports of people having issues getting the pegs into the cape and resorting to hairdryers and screwdrivers to loosen / widen the holes. I think the whole line is dope so far, so I'm pretty pumped for it.

Its amazing looking and now I can't wait to buy the Revoltech Carnage to go with it. Nice! Agreed that Venom is really awesome. Be careful with him though. I put him through too much posing and now the shoulder blade wont hold up the arm on one side.

Along the lines of Marvel Legends hanging around / randomly showing up, I've spent my lunch breaks this week going to various Walgreens, Meijer, Target, and Gamestop stores looking for figures. The Walgreens closest to me had some of the Juggernaut figs which I believe came out almost 2 years ago. Any way to really know when the new stuff should show up? With almost 2 year old figs on the shelf how long should I expect a given wave to hang around?

Right now I'm just going to try to track down the Juggernaut BAF wave (or Rogue, and the Cable and Wolverine pieces). Then I'm just going to wait for the upcoming X-men wave. Might just wind up pre-ordering it on BBTS to ensure I can build Apocalypse. Was able to find a Sue and Johnny between all the Walgreens I hit up, and ordered Reed off of their site. So now I'm just waiting for Surfer and Thing.

Guy Goodbody posted:Do you mean classic like Jack Kirby X-Men or classic like Jim Lee X-Men? Really, either! As a child of the 90's I'd prefer Jim Lee designs, but would also love just about any costume back to issue 39. Would prefer to avoid the original costumes just for the sake of diversity / visual interest. Post Lee, the Astonishing costumes are pretty good. Hate the Morrison Jackets. Pretty ambivalent to the last decade or so of costumes... I guess I'm getting old..."Things were never as good as yesteryear." *shakes fist* Haha!
