A dream job if there ever was one!

[SlamSlayer]

If you participated in the Pic The Adventure segment on this past Fridays Hasbro Pulse Con, you got to direct the build and photographing of a diorama live during the show!

Here the final image the we created based on the fan vote. Dreadnoks in the city during a Zombie Apocalypse.

Oh, that sounds pretty damn awesome. I would have loved to have participated in that, but oh well. I wish I had those dioramas Hasbro uses.

[SlamSlayer]

Better late than never lol. Some store pages are updating their listings with some of the official dio photography that was missing for Road Pig and Nightforce Shockwave. There's a few more images missing for Road Pig I hope to see go live at some point.

Akkkiiirraaaaaaaaaaaa

I disapprove of what you did to the Steel Brigade (yes, I still call them the Steel Brigade), but otherwise the photos are superb as always.

[SlamSlayer]

Lol thank you

Road Pig is also up on Target and with that the rest of the missing dio images

Worth the wait. Great shots, Matt!

I got Raptor, and while he is nice it would be better if his head could look forward when he is in a flying pose. This is not a case where it could be fixed by triming out part of the neck because his hair sticks down in the back and would also block him from looking up. This is the same problem that the recent diver and sniper figures have, and is also a problem with flying characters in the Marvel Legends line and one that I thing needs to be addressed by Hasbro. But they won't.

Raptor was one of my favourites as a kid. I got the new one yesterday and…I hate it. The hood/ helmet/ headgear fits terribly, the wings are a huge pain in the arse and look even worse, the claw weapons are more trouble to get on then they are worth, and they put the holes for the bird to peg in on the bottom of the gauntlets. Maybe mine are on the wrong arms?

The gauntlets turn on the arm so you can move them to the side, top, etc. I heated up the claws a bit and got them to slide all the way on so they are straight and look good. The wings are a little fidgety, but I think they work and he stands with the wings on, which was a surprise. And as long as you don't push the head gear down too hard it seems to stay in place and looks good IMO.

I know they turn, but then the "feather" part of the gauntlets is on the middle-inside part and doesn't look right.
I think I'll keep an eye out for someone doing custom wings for him. I loved the goofiness of the cloth wings on the OG.

Got the Night Force Falcon and Quarrel set.







She should have been the one that came with the Night Force RAM instead of Shockwave, since that's literally her "thing". Her original figure came with the RAM and she was probably the dedicated Joe motorcycle rider if there ever was one.

I also appreciate the set gives you non-rubbery replacement weapons for the Range Viper.

[flansered]

I got Road Pig in the mail the other day, and I am very impressed with him, mainly because I have had him standing there holding the cinder block hammer for over 24 hours and there appears to not be sagging. Hopefully Hasbro is beginning to use stronger plastic for the weapons.

Ah. I should have done the same.

[Goldengreg]

Fantastic pics!!

Is the Quarrel set due to appear at the stores as well, or is it a Walmart.com exclusive?

Playing the wait game paid off. I just got Gnawgahyde for $10 at Target.



EDIT:

The figure sculpt for Gnawgahyde is fantastic. I love his face. On the downside, his accessories suck. The gun case can't stay closed , the sword rotates around his wrist, and as usual, the quiver holder can't plug into his back properly, so it slides out every time he is moved. I am just flabbergasted that in five years they still have yet to figure out how to make the peg on the backpacks and hole work properly. I really feel they need to just drop that system and give the backpacks straps to go around the arms or something. It didn't work in the 80s, it still doesn't work. Anyway, Porkbelly and Yobbo are pretty awesome too. Gotta love adding more animal creatures to my collection. He's well worth the $10, but yeah, I'm glad I waited.

First I need to play the game just normally before I even attempt the other stuff. I've actually never done any of the whacky endings for SH. I just watched them on YouTube.

[flansered]

I opened up the NF Falcon and Quarrel set, and I am happy that Hasbro seemed to have improved the plastic used for the weapons. The soft plastic used for the original Falcon's shotgun constantly fell apart on mine, this one appears to function correctly. Same with Road Pig, whom I have posed holding one of his hammers over his head and it has not sagged.

[Cyclopswc]

Got Nemesis Immortal. I left his extra “backpack” in the corner of the basement and hope that my wife will see it when she walks by…
