We already have a 2 pack with Panther in it. Who wants to bet they repack and reship it for the movie?

CCC.

imgur.com Jay.... you do lose access to older stuff after awhile.

Also.... found a photobucket "cheat" mode. If you just hold on the image from photobucket, and click open image in new tab. The pic will open in a tab then, copy the address in the address bar, come here in the reply box, click the little yellow box with the mountain and Sun above where you type text, a little address bar will appear, erase the HTTP:/ and then paste the address you copied.... boom. Posted your pic, and it doesn't "count" towards your bandwidth limitations. (Hashtag God mode)

I suppose you could do the same with imgur as well. It will work fine as is though, just EVENTUALLY you will not be able to have access to your older stuff there. I think the "cheat" is the way forward to be honest.

IMGUR is its own thing too. A lot of people spend hours on it. It is like here for us, or pintrest or Facebook or reddit. Just a world onto itself with millions of active users. They up vote and comment and have an entire community.

Anyway join up. At home page- click little cloud with arrow in upper right corner.
Click upload from device. Find your pic or pics, you can do one at a time or several at a go.
Find your IMAGES, then choose which pic you want to post.
Click on it and just to the left it will read LINKS.
Click that scroll box and select BBLINK.
Then click on the link ( [IMG]abcdef123[IMG] or something similar) SELECT ALL. COPY....sorted.

then come here to ToyArk or any BB thread site (bulletin board sharing) and all you do now is click into the REPLY box where you normally comment... double click (or hold on phone or tablet) and tap PASTE.... your pic is finished, don't mess with thumbs or the little boxes or anything, just PASTE. done.

ukmu · 08-31-2017, 09:50 AM

Here is my BAD GOLIATH. A lot of sanding and filling and fully taken apart, sanded, prepped, primed, painted with 6 THIN THIN THIN coats,sealed, wet sanded, thin finishing coat, matte sealer, joints rubbed with super glue for extra protective "skin", sanded, sealed, then reassembled. Zero chance of ANY paint rub.

Looks excellent man, you have put a hell of a lot of work into him by the sounds of things

Ok I'll work on that this weekend. I like our little bit of momentum here and want to post some appreciation pics.

Hasbro has them in stock now.

I have to give a HUGE thank you to our new En Sabah Nut....

He asked if he could send my son a few HYDRA troopers and I said yes. Three awesome figures arrived ready to join the ranks!!! A huge thank you my new friend. I am honoured and humbled. Truly blessed. Big up and may your toy karma overflow!!!

#community

Also, thanks guys for Bad Goliath. Will take some proper Masters Of Evil shots on the Super Helicarrier very soon. I traded our Whirlwind to K Dubs like two years ago and still have not replaced him so the scene may have to wait.

This past weekend was our long three day holiday weekend here in UK and it is your Labor Day weekend for most of you this weekend. So if you lot will have it.... mega pic weekend 2???? I so enjoyed the themes last time!!! Didn't see that coming.

I loved how it just happened organically on its own. "Reaction pics" as it were. I want to start doing "battle pics" now that I have shot,'re shot and 're 're shot most of the armies. As well as Kree-8-tors (ha) idea about posting something related to someone's pic.

Lastly, it doesn't have to be a massive army guys, a custom or some incredibly staged photo. I understand it is intimidating and daunting seeing how massive or perfect or creative last weekend's stuff was. I get it.... and PLEASE dont feel like you can't join in. A pic of a simple Captain America will add to the atmosphere and perhaps encourage someone else, and someone else am another and so on. And with the reaction pic idea it could be the easiest pic that snowballs into something great!

Of what I shot, I liked the execution shots the best from my contribution last weekend. I would have NEVER thought of that the with out the "war" that unfolded. Inspiration can strike anywhere. Finally, sorry for my HUGE posts lately (lately???) At least I have been trying to punctuate properly and keep to short,readable paragraphs. I imagine most just skip my long winded non since anyway.... for those that made this far- salute!

@En Sabah Nut

Is that the Matt Trakker head from the latest SDCC pack?

Remember when 4" was getting a Sasquatch? Well it grew to 6" https://twitter.com/MarvelousNews/st...51728573079552

I think the suit design in the new one is totally different though. As bad as Hasbro's been with the 3.75 inch line I thought they were generally a little better with the movie figures.

no, that was a Vonner head...

kidding... that's the Force Awakens Finn's head, fits T'challa to a T. you'll need to get the 3.75 Black Series version though, as the others head proportions & sculpt are a little to the inferior side...

btw, that latest BAF Sasquatch is a Beast (literally & metaphorically)!

here's something for Lordmudd, Universe or anyone amassing Ice Giants...

That is it for 2017. Nothing was announced at SDCC and intention of ANYTHING in our scale at the panel. They did throw 5 repainted Deadpool figures in the case on the Saturday. Never talked about them or bothered to release high resolution factory pics. It is still unknown if they will even be a thing, a set, or the dreaded thought...the first wave of 2018.

That is all we know. There is no information at all, as HASBRO seems to have forgotten about us.

I actually saw the last wave pretty plentiful in my area, granted they did disappear quick...but HTS is a bit cheaper then the brick stores that's for sure...

LordMudd · 08-31-2017, 03:52 PM

Got this tree on ebay. Been upgrading the paint apps. Finally got it photo ready.

CCC.

When did we hear about a Sasquatch in our scale?

too bad the 3.75" Hobbit toys didn't have big playsets too... because the figures were really great... especially Gandalf.

I always thought the tree house from the Narnia line would make a good Bilbo / Frodo house.

Wasn't he rumoured for a while based on a hint by Hasbro?

This is BADASS in every way LM. I remember you saying that you were getting this and seeing factory pics. You killed it with your paint application brother!!!! LM for the win, and looks like Kraven is ready for death by Snu Snu..... Giggity.

Great Bad Goliath you got Blue. Would absolutely LOVE to see some collection pics this weekend if you can buddy. Also, your pics look great, don't sell yourself short!!! I love collection shots as they look in real life on display.... Yours rocked!!!! Please please please post loads this weekend if you can Blue.

Speaking of Bad Goliath, I have been reading up about him lately and what a nut job he was. Can't wait to do the Super Helicarrier shot though. Just need to score a Whirlwind again.

Force Friday 2. (yeah) Anyway, my next post will be another army pic to kick off the weekend....

Ninjinister · 08-31-2017, 11:42 PM

I can't see anything Creator posted because Photobucket is pwning the pics D:

I suppose you could do the same with imgur as well. It will work fine as is though, just EVENTUALLY you will not be able to have access to your older stuff there. I think the "cheat" is the way forward to be honest.

it's not that you lose access it is that you go over their invisible limit
I heard that cheat doesn't really work

It was speculation because he was on the card art.
