New info about the Hot Toys "Policeman" Joker Turns out that calling it Policeman Joker is only a half-truth. He's got an entire complete costume for being Joker proper, with gun, cards, knife, and even the grenades-with-thumb-string. Looks like the big feature is actually the ability to move both of the eyes in either head, so you're no longer stuck with him looking in one direction. I am so glad I held off on buying the previous Jokers.

I wish I'd never found this thread (or one of the earlier iterations); I was fine just buying DC Superheroes, Sideshow's The Dead, and the rare statue, but now I've got so many Hot Toys on pre-order it's loving ridiculous. But they're so loving awesome ;_;

Looking for some advice: I'm going to be moving next week, and I'm just about packed except for my figures. Anybody whose done this before have any suggestions? I'm going to another state, so they'll be getting boxed up & hauled via moving van, and I've got a shitload of loose figures; Marvel Legends & DC Classics make up the vast majority. Obviously, spare parts and other small bits get their own ziplock baggie, but what of the figures themselves? Toss 'em all together in a box tape it shut; wrap each in paper, mummy-style; some third way I haven't considered? I realize it'll get pretty warm in a moving truck, so I'm leaning towards the latter, but just wanted some input from y'all.

Anti-Life justifies my purchase! Give in! Anti-Life, the choice that's made for you! If the new one is anything like the previous Darkseid the Four Horseman made, yeah, it could very well be worth it. That one was made in a way that his skin felt significantly different from his suit (almost chalky), and had Kirby-tech on his feet. He still stands watching everything in my room.

I've used CornerStoreComics a number of times to get newer stuff. They update quickly, but usually restock their inventory half-a-dozen times before the next wave of something comes out (going by DC Superheroes here). You won't find much older stuff, but if you preorder things, you'll definitely be happy to have done so.

Fish Of Doom posted:It's slightly different. The clayface pack has the small yellow symbol and bright yellow belt. The new one that TRUs are getting solid cases of has a huge only black symbol and a darker yellow belt. A lot of collectors view this particular costume color scheme as the "signature" modern Batman outfit, and have been bugging Mattel to do it for some time. They got all pissy that the Clayface 2-pack version was so close to it but covered in "mud," so Mattel's response is to shove this version as far down the consumer's throat as it possibly can. Then a little bit more. I'm happy with the six other versions of the same exact Batman I've been forced to get in order to get other exclusives or finish a BAF. Well, happy in that I don't need to buy a Batman just to own a particular suit; I'd still rather get new characters than more Batmen or Supermen.

Whorehey posted:It's good to see wave 5 being reissued because it was such a bitch to collect. I'm not sure how to feel about them being issued in one package ala Gotham City Five Pack, however. At this point, owning the original wave, I wouldn't mind buying a new Atom or Black Lightning for a figure with a better paint job but this all-or-nothing packaging will prevent me from doing that. It's not the end of the world, it's something I could fix during the summer when I have a bit more time on my hands anyway. Besides, I should probably finish off Wave 10 and start 11 or 12 before I start to re-buy figures. Wave 12 at least should be pretty easy.

Question for those of you who collect and open 6" figures: where do you store them when not displaying them? I recently moved and need to find something better than cardboard boxes in which to keep my Marvel Legends and DC Classics, but I'm concerned about them fermenting if I get plastic bins and they wind up in them for a long time. Does anybody have any other suggestions?

Xenomrph posted:So when the economy starts turning around, can we expect to see the prices go back down a bit? Or is that just silly? Maybe. Another problem comes into play when a company that has a relative corner on a niche market like this raises prices; because there's not as much competition in terms of other collectibles like these (the DC Direct stuff is nice, but lacking the variety and poseability of DC Classics), there's not as much reason for them to lower the price when they see that people are willing to pay out the nose for these things.

I was browsing Marvelous News and found some backstories I hadn't seen here, so I'll link them for those interested. Hot Toys Movie Masterpiece Black Widow She has real hair! And a weird facial expression. Much as owning Scarlett Johansson would be nice, I think I can safely pass on this one. Toys'R'Us Series 7 Minimates Ugh, more TRU exclusive minimates to either stab someone in the parking lot to get, or pay retarded ebay prices for. Even worse, the TRU exclusives are loving awesome: Gamma Hulk & Hulkbuster, and original Psylocke and Lockjaw. LOCKJAW. gently caress YOU EXCLUSIVITY I WANT LOCKJAW. Captain America Through the Ages Minimates Poll Until May 31, pick which Cap you like best for a new boxed set. The only really new ones are the "Frozen in Ice" and "Stupid 90s Armor" versions; the others have all been made in some fashion.

Finally got through on my order, took loving forever. I hope they learn their lesson about how many greedy toy nerds exist on this planet and amp up their servers before the DCUC Trigon wave goes up next month.CapnAndy posted:While you guys are waiting, wanna answer a semi-odd question? I've got a collection of zombies going and was wondering if you could point me at any I've missed. From Resident Evil I have regular zombie (with the arms and hands that come off and the pegs are modelled to look like muscle and bone when they're apart, he's my favorite), lab coat zombie, and crimson head zombie. From Dawn of the Dead I have Dr. Tongue. From Marvel Select I have Zombie Spider-Man and Zombie Colonel America. From Blackest Night I have Black Lantern Firestorm, Black Lantern Kal-L, and Black Hand. I intentionally didn't get Zombie Hulk, Black Lantern Wonder Woman, and Dawn of the Dead Hare Krishna Zombie because they didn't look that rotted (WW isn't rotted at all), and skipped Black Lantern Aquaman and Martian Manhunter because ehhhh. I may get them later, at least they're all decomposed.

Totally worth it if you want the goriest zombie toys ever made, though. edit: yeah, checked on ebay and it looks like there's a number of 'em on there for cheap for ya Sanschel fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Jun 15, 2010 |

Nerd Of Prey posted:
The Four Horsemen seem to be artistically stuck in the '70s and '80s sometimes. For every awesome Guy Gardner or Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle we get, we also seem to get a buttload of Super Powers rejects nobody but them gives a poo poo about. Admittedly, the Cyclotron figure was better than I expected, but figures like him and Golden Pharoah are taking up space that could be better devoted to finishing out the teams they've already started that people do, in fact, seem to care about. The same thing happens with MOTUC; they're so bent on nostalgia for the original toys that they gimp themselves artistically.

Some news about Green Lantern Classics Wave 2 from NYCC Apparently, this wave'll have a three-pack of B'dg, Despotellis and Dex-Starr; I fully expect that to be impossible to find and cost a fortune on the secondary market. It's also got a pair (quartet?) of interchangeable figures; one for GLs, and more impressively, one for Red Lanterns, wherein one of the figures was designed by the Four Horsemen and will eventually show up in the comics with the godawful name of Night Lik (that would be the Predator-looking dude with the harness). Otherwise the line appears to have Sodam Yat, Carol Ferris, and a fuckawesome Stel; I pray the quality control on these improves from what the recent lines have been, to gently caress up a sculpt that sick with shoddy paint or poor joints would be a sin.
