Yeah, although the szechuan sauce isn't in every store and people are still selling it on eBay, it's significantly easier to find now. I really wanted to use Rick and Morty figures, but I've never dumped food onto toys before and I had no idea how well they would clean. With the pose skeleton, I have several of them and ruined paint wasn't much concern.

And thanks, guys! I've taken a loooot of robot toy photos over the years.

Gonna have to redo the "robot dance party" because I've since added several fantastic robot figures.

The above photo is from a set similar to the extreme set boards, which I learned about through this site, actually. I've thought about getting some, but I've been waiting for them to create a more generic sci-fi one. The orange and purple ones are so recognizably "Transformers" for me that I'm not sure it would work with other figures. Looks like the Diamond Select Selina Kyle is still mercifully cheap, I think this is something I need to invest in.

Too kind! And yes, it is real ice cream. My kitty is obsessed with ice cream and I had to reject a few pictures because you could see her in the photo with her neck craned towards it. Adorable.
This thread is a real pleasure to get caught up on, thanks for all of the spectacular toy photos.

Great pics, Brown. I love the dance party!

I fret about that kind of thing all the time, ha ha. For what it's worth, "The Skull" uses them pretty effectively in an Adventure Team context.

dying to get that Cl4p Trap figure, does it have articulation? i miss playing BorderLands, its one of the best games i have ever played

Fun Fact:: BorderLands is the video game with the most guns ever.

It does have very nice articulation in the arms. Full range of motion at the shoulder joints, and elbows that bend. The wheel turns and can retract slightly. It's the NECA Claptrap though, I don't know how the more recent McFarlane Claptrap compares.
I actually recently finished Tales from the Borderlands, which is surprisingly excellent. It's a departure from the shooter elements the series is known for, but the story and setting nailed the tone of the series perfectly.

Thanks!
You know, that actually looks pretty good? That's a terrific photo. I think I might be able to work with that. So long as there isn't a giant Dinobot on the monitor. Although...

And because I've been playing Sea of Thieves today, I've had pirates on the brain.

Nice photos, Brownfinger. I really like the varied backgrounds and the like too.

Excellent dio and photos!

*right-click, save*

Hot damn. So does he come with all of those flame effects? Or are a few of those from effects sets like this one?

Coming from the gold standard, that's high praise. :thumbs
The photos you take of new product, or all of them from your own collection or are they sometimes samples they send you to make their stuff look obscenely good? Your Perfect Effect Leonidas photos brought me to tears. I want that figure more than anything, now.

I don't buy a lot of third party stuff, though. Mostly the tiny ones. That slope is too slippery for me.

This probably makes no sense to anyone that doesn't read the comic.

thank big homey..


I'm in the process of making an "effects bin/tub/draw" for ease of use. I've got thing all over the place including way more fire pieces (can you ever have enough??)

izzat Orko??

Very nice stuff, DTL

It's a mixture of (mostly) bought and things sent from companies but either way they're parts of my collection as I've never been asked to send anything back. I really appreciate the kind words man, and great photos; particularly the MOTUC piece (that's actually a FF piece per your reply below?)

hey brownFinger, whos that little fire guy?

Orko ain't got no legs, Lieutenant Dan!
Yeah, it's a Black Mage (Vivi) from the vidja games. Final Fantasy was three years after He-Man, I think? But I've always thought the Black Mage owed its visual cues to Orko. Who knows, wizards with pointy hats have been around since long before all of that.

[Edit: Sorry, missed the replies as I was typing mine up: His name is Vivi Ornitier from Play Arts. It was something of a grail of mine for years. A lot of those early Play Arts toys go for obscene prices now, pretty sure these two would pay my rent for a couple months if I ever decided to sell them.]

And this one is getting up there, though I'm sure she'll get a retail release at some point.

https://farm1.staticflickr.com/765/3...1d6f2565_o.jpg

Fire is just the start. I wanna get the Tamashii thunder and wind effect pieces, as well. The dark purple flame effects look really nice, too.

Re Upload: had to clean up some weird artifacts.
