Yeah True but I would like at least a neutral face as a option because no matter what display you have him in He will be In A surprised. Like There will be no way to Make him look like a badass Killing shit without him looking like he is in the middle of a Prostate exam.

Ash doesn't really become a badass until AoD. Even when he enters hero mode and gets the chainsaw hand towards the end of ED2 he's still pretty scared by just about everything going on. There are a few scenes in the movie where he visibly mans up and takes charge but being freaked out is the common vibe. Finally since the ultimate figure is him pre-chainsaw hand this is prime freaked out Ash mode. When they do ultimate hero Ash, which Randy said they will, then a calm/heroic alternate head would make sense.

Batmobile with 6" DC universe Batman and Robin. My Local Comic Shop had a sale Friday(10/28/19) so I picked this up for 50% Off of $99.95 so I picked up 2 for $49.97 each. Cant wait for the Batwing in Dec. same scale and can fit a 6" DC Universe figure. All my DCUC Batman Figures Fit Inside. Totally Incredible

Its by her feet. Lol. I'm helping!

Is Habro even creating new molds anymore or are they just on a constant repaint rampage? Every time I see new Joe figures at TRU it looks like they just repainted older figures (some with the outdated bodies).

They have created some new molds, mostly face scults, but as far as the bodies go, Hasbro has been kitbashing Joes for years. Outside of these lines and the club figures, G.I.Joe is pretty much dead, so I can't imagine seeing anything new in the terms of sculpts in the future (although not that it's honestly necessary, as Hasbro has a HUGE library of parts to choose from when making these things...)

Today's arrivals, both items I had no interest in initially, but ended grabbing them after scoring some great deals. The Guardians set in particular was a lot better than I anticipated, and I'm really happy I snagged it up when I could!

Looks like everyone decided to get that set during Hastings' closing sale. I wanted it from day one that it was announced but the price was just too high and any online sales didn't knock enough off to sway me, then Hastings almost cut the price in half and I was thrilled to finally get it.

I snagged mine off of Ebay since there are no Hastings in my area, but at around 75 shipped, which while still a little high, it's WAY below the retail price.

Just curious, did your Rocket Racoon's head fall off really easily? The hole in the head sculpt is really shallow, causing it to fall off the neck peg rather easily. An easy fix, but just curious nevertheless.

Bearjew · 11-01-2016, 03:03 PM

Yesterday I received my Marvel Select Captain America Civil War Unmasked figure. I didn't open the package until late last night so I don't have pictures yet. I was surprised to see that the back lacks the usual writing. It is just a giant picture. It looks great though.

Actually the head on Rocket was pretty tight on mine at first, now it's just normal Hasbro level. One of Groot's hips (his right I think) is a little loose but not enough to disturb his standing ability but enough to make posing him a tad annoying since I'll barely touch it and it'll swing down with gravity.

MOTUeric · 11-01-2016, 05:28 PM

Just picked up this nice set recently off of Ebay. Decent pricing. Now I have a question for anyone that can help, what kind of cases can I get to protect these?

PROVOST · 11-02-2016, 03:58 AM

Combined retail and eBay additions -

Bo Ttef · 11-02-2016, 02:02 PM

hitting walgreens in my neck of the woods finally- MAFEX threepio will still be my go-to figure, but hasbro will fill in for play or background shots.

My camera is acting up a bit, it does not do these figures enough justice- in person they are awesome.

Me too! Nice figures! Japan rocks and China for Hot Toys especially

En Sabah Nerd · 11-02-2016, 08:32 PM

Got my AvED hero Ash in from BBTS yesterday and it is awesome. To quote the man himself he is "lookin' sweet!" The head swap isn't too hard and neither is loose when attached. The likeness is very strong for something so not-big and the new articulation on the elbows really helps for good battle poses. I know somebody else here said they got one but couldn't get it to stand well but mine is totally fine and can even handle some more dynamic poses.

Wow !! Picked up the original ones. Very nice find.

I love this toyline.

Phantomcrow · 11-03-2016, 11:34 AM

Well my Hastings closed a week ago and for the last 2 months I have been picking up things from them as prices dropped. This is most of my 2 month haul from them.

AND the final day. 90% off anything in the store. At this point I was buying stuff just for parts and weapons. Most figures the last day were between 1$ and 4$.
