NICE! Mine is being delivered from Amazon today (finally). Really hope I do not get the PE. But if I do those gauntlets will get painted.

![]() ![]() Got the Black Series Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati from Amazon. Yeah yeah, Hasbro somehow fumbled "6 inch scale" into "these figures should be 6 inches exactly" for these two but I still wanted them. Somewhat strangely I got the revision Shin with the updated orange blade but then Baylan is the first version with the red blade, just a roll of the dice when ordering online. Speaking of their lightsaber blades, Baylan's seems way too long like even if the figures were the right size this would still be too much saber so I won't be displaying him with the saber ignited. The teal-like weathering on Baylan's armor is definitely exaggerated compared to the show but on the other hand I kinda like how it gives the figure more color than just mostly black and dark grey. The beard does throw off the likeness a bit, it sorta fattens the lower face, but I still see Ray Stevenson here. Shin then has much more reasonable sand-colored weathering that's only on her armor and the final figure has a good capture of Ivanna Sakhno's face, but then the hair just being cast in this color with no paint wash or anything is pretty bland. So yeah there are some issues here, notably Baylan should've been about .25" taller and Shin about .33" shorter, but I still really like getting these two in my collection. I thought they were interesting characters in the show and then I especially dug that they had a Euro-Medieval knight aesthetic instead of the usual Samurai influenced Jedi robes, so my fanboy-wanting here is edging out the aforementioned flaws.

I'm beginning to think his Chase ratios are a total scam. Because lately I see more of those than I do regular versions. |

no I think what happened is like you most people didn't want the chase. they got the chase and sent it back to Amazon to get the regular figure and that's how we got our chase ones

EDIT: Decided to check GameStop over by my office for Wonder Woman (after my order from Amazon ended being the Platinum Edition). Walk in and hanging on the peg is ANOTHER PE. So dude that worked there checked another store. They had her and it was the Normal version. Score. Last edited by firmpulse; 01-23-2024 at 01:33 PM.. |

That makes some sense. I also see a lot of them in stores. I've seen a more PE Sinestro and Supes & Krypto than the regular versions. However, I haven't seen the clear green GL Bats.

Do you have a GameStop around you? While they do not show in stock at stores online the 3 closest ones to me had one. Two were PE.
Yeah, thanks dude. It was bugging the heck out of me. I have seen 4 PE versions and 1 Normal. Weird. |

Yeah, you'd think Hasbro would be better than that by now about scale. I understand if Baylan's .25" taller someone at Hasbro would feel like he needs to be a "Deluxe" figure and be charged $40, but they've never had problem making a smaller figure and still charging $25 for it. (I'm looking at you, Grogu with pram). And the way they released a larger and smaller figure together was in a 2-pack, which evens out the plastic used, and in this case, I'd have no problem with this being a 2-pack.

![]() Finally found Multiverse Brainiac from Injustice 2 in store. I've been seeing that Amazon's had him for at least a month but actually spotting one in a Target pushed me to finally buy. Mechanically he's par for the course with this line. The tentacles are entirely optional and can be swapped around to try different looks, after taking this pic I switched the lower two and it resulted in a more contained silhouette with them sort of wrapping around his legs. Either way I think it's a good looking figure and I hope McFarlane isn't done with making designs from this game.

![]() Finally got this (and 1989 Batwing) with my case ordered from EE. Gave the extra DKR Batmobile and the other vehicles I already had to a fellow collector. Toy karma. Spread it. |

Cool thanks. I actually have a few of those but have never even seen the DKR tank in stores (which is how I've bought them). I would LOVE a Batman The Adventures Continue version. My fave Batmobile of all time.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Got The Black Series Glavius Ringworld Book of Boba Fett Mandolorian. Believe the hype on this figure. This is a fantastic figure. Better colors the silver pops out on his armour cloth cape. Puts Beskar Armor version to shame. This is the definitive Din Djarin. ![]() I gave the Darksaber to my Bo Katan figure Last edited by ThorOdinson123; 02-06-2024 at 09:10 PM.. |
