1. Great pics guys.... wow

2. Blue all the way for GOTG uniforms

3. OUTSTANDING customs

4. I will find some time later to snap some pics as I have everything out. Better late than pregnant.

Hey brother, sorry about your wife's health issues, she's lucky to have a good dude like you through it all by her side.

dwight is either incompetent and doesn't understand his own business, or he actually does hate 4 inch and intentionally ran it into the ground.

Either way he has no business being in charge of a toy line.

Hes got no biz being in charge of scooping cattle shite let alone a toy line.

6 inch collectors are like dudes with giant Bro Trucks.

Over compensating for something.

It's not what you got, it's how you use it.

Cheers D.

Love the "not on my watch" pic

I prefer the Showdown Beast myself.

I think in January (when I always seem to get my best deals) I am going to expand the X team.

HASBRO took a HUGE hit to their stock after TRU announced their chapter 11 plans.

4" in general has a much larger base. Star Wars vintage collectors alone outnumber all Marvel figure collectors of all scales combined. There are also loads of Joe collectors out there. The 6" is definitely hot and has its place. HASBRO is looking ground in the Star Wars 6" market though. Hopefully Disney will let other companies make 6" Marvel soon too. That could force their hand to return to our scale a bit?

Posted in the wrong thread so trying again - looking for recommendations for a base body for a Movie Thanos. Got a head WIP and shoulder pads but would prefer not to use a Deaths Head or Colossus Buck. Thoughts/Ideas/Suggestions welcome.

Yeah I don't get it either. I also noticed at hascon they were hit over the head with WTF happened to 3.75" questions. I just saw another site... a Korner for Kastors... anyways they ask about the 3.75" line at the 5:49 mark and they give the same "keep the hope alive" answer.

ukmu · 09-20-2017, 10:22 PM

Dude, I just listened to that garbage. "They're great fans, keep wishing and hoping and MAYBE someday, who knows?" And my favourite, "keep hope alive."

Always, always, always though have you notice Lord Stall never talks about our scale. Unless it is to sneer and smirk and pass the buck? King Tool.... what a douche cock.

LoL,one step forward three steps back!
pilkster the best way is turning up at cons in the droves and trolling hasbro events with mostly 3.75 questions.for the past 7 years ive watched mostly legends collectors ask 3.75 a themed question and i dont think ive ever seen any one here turn up at a con a drill home some really good questions about the decline in our line!
there are many reasons why the legends community is getting preference,but to say MARVEL 3.75 is more popular is actually laughable,considering legends has more outlets,more fans and a much better community all round.

The problem with that is that if one of us turned up at a con and berated that pompous Dbag with facts and questions, it would be near impossible to not sound like a crazy, toy loving, moms basement dwelling fan boy.

Again, the facts and numbers are on our side. 4 inch IS more popular, and more looked at than 6 inch, plain and simple.

I'm guessing cock holster stalls idea of market research is the sales of 6 inch vs 4 inch of the past years, but of course those numbers are skewed because they've been shitting out crap 💩 4 inch figures for the past few years.

Despite that, 4 inch is still more popular and garners more interest than 6 inch.

What we really need is to gain access to someone above stall and present the facts in an intelligent manner. But the chances of that are pretty low. But the facts and numbers are all there, we just need someone important to show them too. And dwight the idiot stall is less important than a Marvel Universe Doc Sampson figure.
