First off, just wanted to say that you guys are the best for covering events like these ! Thank you so much!!!!!

I am very much looking forward to the Square enix coverage! A new Lara Croft for the new game would be nice ! Some cool Bishoujo for DC or Marvel line would also be cool I also saw a long time ago that that they will have a new Bishoujo line. Aaah, can't wait......

Moving to this post, these figures look awesome! Is the Yellow and Blue X-23 already out for sale?

Wondering what is the point of BAF aacessories if they just go and release it single carded with more accessories. This is beginning to get me on my nerves!

Am I wrong or it's the first year Hasbro showcase their Marvel toys that aimed at kids? Anyway, they still look lazy and lousy as hell.
Makes me wonder if they're afraid the Mouse will take away their Marvel license as well, I mean like TF and Star Wars, I barely see Marvel toys in Israel despite the huge popularity of MCU here.

No, they pretty consistently show the toys for the kiddie lines at the conventions. Usually the movies or whatever cartoon is airing at the time.

Without the BAF to pay for the tooling costs there would be no figure to single pack later on.

Wait, Shartimus Prime said Apocalypse didn't have any accessories. Was he mistaken?

How is it they can give us movie figures "based" on something that never actually happened in the movie, but we can't get a single new 3.75" figure yet?

EDIT: apologies. Even though I stand by my complaint, a combo of salty and overtiredness made it seem bitchier than intended.

Just FYI, but your dang watermark goes right over the face of these figures in just about every picture. I don't mind the watermark, but the guys taking the photos need to be cognizant that the don't need to center the figure's face in the photo.

It's just something you'll have to deal with.

Absolutely agree about the watermark. It's ridiculous to take pictures and then have important details, such as their face, blocked with a "Toyark" watermark. It was an ignorant response to just say, well deal with it. The logo should definitely be moved so people can see details better.

Oh man. That Black Panther body is sooooooo MUCH better. I'll finally buy a ML BP. Excited for Ta'Chaka as well!

EDIT: Dang. I just noticed the dumpy split toe feet.

When watermark is moved, people crop out and simply steal the pics. Don't like it? Pay to go there and take pics yourself.

I appreciate the Solo love (as one of the guys who HATED the concept, it’s a pretty enjoyable film), but was hoping for Luke and Yoda from the last Jedi

Glad to finally see Qi'ra in her more popular/non-flashback costume! Now let's just scale her up to 6in with complete articulation.

That Blue Wasp looks very similar to the mythical Toybiz Wasp.

If I understand correctly you statement, you are saying that having a BAF part in the wave pays the cost of the figure design?
Why? They could just release it as they do with all the rest of their figures; they all have an involved tooling/design process and it is not like they have to make them BAFs.

It's just the Civil War figure again with a better unmasked head.

THIS. I've worked in the advertising industry my whole career. We run into it all the time. Joe and the Toyark team take numerous photos of each display, so there is always an alternate angle that should satisfy. In addition their composition is usually first rate and it's not like the watermark is even really that opaque.

If Joe seems a little terse on the subject I completely understand. He's probably had photos jacked more times than you can imagine.

Bravo. I've dealt with it too, so tend to regard those who throw a conniption with a small but healthy grain of suspicion.

Thanks, guys, for all the great images. Sure helps my shopping.
