Found the two Spartans I wanted today.



I'm glad to say that many of the QC issues that plagued the first wave are way better this time around. The arms could still be a bit tighter, but they are on par with the average Marvel Legends figure at this point, as they can actually hold up their weapons now. Elbows and knees don't have much flop to them, and the legs are much sturdier as well.

The ab crunch could still blows but the good this time outweighs the bad. If these had even half the issues the first wave had, I was gonna be done with the line. They have me though for the next wave at least.

The custom retro-style head for my Anti-Eternia He-Man finally came in.

I sure hope Hasbro has plan to make a deluxe Spiderverse Penny Parker with SP//DR, I’m digging these Spiderverse characters.

Nice! I've been to 4 Walmarts twice a day for over a week and haven't found shite.

[Comedian]

My closest Walmart says these are in stock but nothing. No one knows anything about them. I go to the Niagara Falls Walmart, boom freaking gold series mcfarlane barman, spawn, video games falling off of the pegs. Electronics, displays full of neca stuff.

I gust opened the phantom. Awesome figure, very “green lantern” like with the ring effects. But holly crap, NECA cast the hands and feet in the color the need to be. The paint is all scraping of off the ankle and wrist joints. Now they are purple.

Is Marty's crotch piece really off color like that? Or is that just the lighting? He looks like Superman wearing his underwear on top of his pants.

Found Prowler and Frog-Man at Walmart and the Buzzworthy Bumblebee '77 Camaro at Target.

It’s really that bad. My wife is the BTTF fan and I told her he looks like he needs a cape. They were all like that at that walmart.

Huh, I looked over three of them at a walmart yesterday and they all looked fine. Perhaps NECA did a revision?

[slim19722]

Not only was I shocked to see these on the pegs, I was doubly shocked they were $4 each.



2 Walgreens stores score. They didn't ring up at either store. 2 Troopers from the first store charged me $15.99 each, second store charged me $13.17 each for Zartan and a Trooper.

The didn’t look awful in package at Walmart, but I could tell. Once we opened him, yup. My hope is it will dull a bit. Hopefully there was a running change, because that is not QC.

Got my kingdom Megatron today. First it's great to finally again buy a leader class transformer that's actually bigger than a voyager and not just a voyager-sized toy that you can partsform to make a little bigger. Having said that he's not as big as leaders from a few years ago but hey it's still an improvement from Siege and Earthrise. Size discussion aside I really enjoy having this figure. In proper Beast Wars fashion he turns from a robot into Barney the dinosaur. The T-rex mode is pretty nice, the panels that form most of the neck will move with the head and his tail even has some articulation. In robot mode he has a bit of a backpack, this combined with his tail-claw weapon on the left arm can make him a bit cumbersome to fidget with but overall he's a very solid robot.
