@DTL badass pics man!

SymbiSpidey · 08-09-2018, 08:59 AM

Just ordered myself the Silver Surfer. I've been specifically saving up points for this purchase lol.

All that's left to do is get The Thing and then I'm golden. Can't wait to have a complete F4 with their allies.

I did. But only because it was a figure of a character I really wanted. I still thought it looked pretty bad, and that was before we had better. It was born bad and hasn't aged well at all.

Literally almost every toybiz female figure is utterly terrible. There might be one or two exemptions but I haven’t thought of one yet

Spider-Woman. (Both versions.)

The Jean Grey wasn't terrible at the time but Hasbro put it to shame. Nor was the Storm in from series 8 but again, I'm sure Hasbro will manage to be superior.

Both the Warbird and Kitty Pryde from the Giant Man series were decent.

Beyond that though, yeeah I agree. Between the scary as hell (and not in a cool way) Deathstrike, Scarlet Witch on meth, and Black Widow with the neck scar, to say nothing on the worst ML ever, their Rogue, their women got the shaft. HUSH Nitelife. I can hear your thoughts from here.

Great picture! Really captures the pain! It's a shame for those of us who don't have the space, for now anyways, we get these great figures and we just put them away. I'm considering leaving Sauron sitting about for a while, perched in various places.

Thanks Nash! Yeah- room is at a minimum now and wave after wave after wave is flooding my space (which i hate to see over-crowded) I'm in the process of boxing up some HotToys to make room...

True. I don’t own any toybiz female figures anymore. So i might just be remembering them worst then they actually are haha. All I know now is that Hasbro has been doing them great lately(if you don’t count in the Head recycling). You and me both can agree on firestar we desperately need her. I’d kill for a Spiderman amazing friends 3-Pack with her and ice man.

sh002 · 08-09-2018, 04:27 PM

I ordered 2 Silver Surfers for free shipping and then applied free Walgreens points so the total for both after tax was $23.78.

Pravus Prime · 08-09-2018, 04:53 PM

Well, my order from EE arrived today, including the Thor/Groot/Rocket 3-pack which I've been waiting forever for (I had it on Pre-order at BBTS but got tired of not knowing when or even if it would drop and EE had it in stock for almost a month now, so I dropped the BBTS pre-order and ordered from EE and got free shipping and saved a few buck to boot), so I was able to make my "Ultimate" Thor (Slight pun intended).

It's made from:
1. IW Thor 3-pack body
2. IW Thor head
3. Ragnarok 2-pack hand and lightning effect
4. IW Basic Thor Stormbreaker

I've been planning it for months, I'm pretty pleased.

Also a quick pic of the evolution of ML MCU Thors. (Thor 1 is using a stand because he sucks so much, the Ragnarok Gladiator Thor was being difficult and I ended up not including him to save width for a better picture.

When Hasbro makes a new Lady Death strike, would you want it to be the same design as the Toybiz version? Its certainly her most iconic, but I think I'd really like either her black/red/gold samurai look or even the Dios De LA Muertos facepaint from 2014.

Classic Deathstrike would be ideal, but I would take the early to mid 00's look as well. Big thumbs down to the DDLM design she had for the Sisterhood storyline. Which went away anyways. Actually her status is extremely confusing now because she was dead and then uploaded into the Colombian woman's body so it acknowledged her death, but now she's back in another title and is looking Asian again. Then again Marvel comics hasn't cared about continuity at all in the last 10-15 years.

redfox · 08-09-2018, 06:53 PM

I wouldn't mind one of Hasbro's signature pseudo-iconic hodgepodges for Lady Deathstrike. Just really hoping that when we do get Deathstrike, she doesn't come with repurposed Scream/symbiote clawed hands. That'd be a big disappointment as those are far too short and stubby. IMO the long talons are a pretty specific characteristic of Deathstrike, and she needs a set of unique slender hand-sculpts.
