lol

Not a single figure I would buy.

Malice better be the Polaris version though, as that I would actually spend money on.

It's Sue, she has a super popular Malice Skin in Rivals




My Savage Land set arrived today

It’s from X-Men 97.

Good stuff!

If it ends up looking like that, and Hasbro improves on the boots and gloves from the 2pk, then I will pick it up.

I hate that i gotta pay almost double for an agent antivenom just for stupid fucking card.

Dragon Man is incredible; 10" tall, massively muscled, with textures everywhere. Unless I misunderstood the original announcement, Hasbro seems to have course corrected in real time by including two sets of wings. A second set of larger expanded wings, I assume meant to simulate flight, come with the figure and they sport a burnt orange paint on the interior side. I’m very happy I pulled the trigger on this monstrosity and Hasbro did a stellar job,

This bodes well for the creation of Magog, Orca, maybe even a FA Black Goliath, a redo of Sasquatch, or The Stranger at this scale and price-point.

Good shit here IMO! Not for everyone, but a great option for people that want to add these obscure characters that don’t have mass appeal.

Wow Dragon Man really does look nice. Thank you for sharing pictures TBM!

I really now want an AOA Abyss figure in this format rather than a BAF. They could go wild and do wonders with his different void-ish body parts.

The format does lend itself to many different applications. Abyss, Magog, Stranger, Orca, etc, could all conceivably find a path to production. Characters that collectors complain about occupying slots that more popular or highly requested heroes/villains could/should fill become less of an issue. If you are ok with your Sasquatch BAF, great. But if you would prefer a larger update to more closely approximate Sasquatch’s 20’ height in 6” scale, Habro can test the level of interest through this semi-bespoke format. Although, all that said, I believe only Mephisto is considered ‘made-to-order.’ Dragon Man and the ’97 Sentinel feel ostensibly similar, but might be something else in Hasbro's eyes.

Hasbro charging $15 extra for a single Marvel Legends figure in an extra wide box with a foil Magic The Gathering card makes me nostalgic for the days when Toy Biz would include an exclusive Marvel Vs. System card in a standard package at no additional cost.

I missed VS system cards, I remember getting the Imperial and Fleer trading cards

Any word on where/when the Champion and Starfox 2 pack will retail?

Haven't heard anything

He's ginormous. Also for all you proponents of bendy wire, with full disrespect, get effed. It is the most useless, waste of time and money. The tails on these figures (Dragon Man and Blackheart) are too thick for it to do anything but take up shelf space

Congrats on your Dragon Man. And, yeah, the tail, just as with Blackheart, is troublesome. That said, static, or ball socket articulation would have both been equally annoying imo.

I'm frustrated with lack of info on Champion and Starfox, but I can wait it out.

I ended up leaving the tail off and tossing it in the parts bin

Oh, I could see you displayed it without the tail. There would be no way for you to position it that close to the back of the cabinet had you not removed it. The Toy Biz version wasn't better, but, from what I've seen, I don't own one, at least it was comparatively smaller. The tail for the new Dragon Man is longer than the fig is tall.

Got 3 new glass cases tonight. They're like the length of 2 detolfs, have built in lighting, and because the frame is wood, it doesn't feel like it's going to shake apart. Of course, it's also heavier. On the downside, the shelves aren't adjustable, so I'm not going to be able fit Galactus or any Sentinels in it. The next one I order for my Marvel stuff I might just not build in the middle shelf in the top portion of the case as I don't think it will affect the sturdiness of it, but we'll see.

Great set up V that custom aue especially. Whos the character between frank and val?

Agatha, she was Sue and Reed's nanny. She-Hulk is on the way, I shipped my Pile of Loot Wednesday

More Inhumans perhaps?

Agreed. My guess is a Black Bolt & Medusa two pack, but I want Triton. I think Habro should consider Black Bolt and Medusa very carefully before trotting something out. While they have done ok versions of both, they haven’t managed to nail characters that offer a fair shot at doing so. For Medusa, go big on a couple of hair accessories that double as effects for shielding and grasping/punching, along with set of ‘normal’ (hair) heads with at least one option of an emotive expression. I see three heads with one that slots into the accessories. For Black Bolt, perfect his wings, dammit! Maybe the solution is to repeat the pin technique used on Banshee using a few more connections to avoid gaps. They could also employ the same synthetic material they have been using for Storm and Banshee. Constructing the wings with thin high-tensile plastic spines for the ribbing. And, of course, update the buck to the Vulcan body, with an assortment of hands, and three different electron Kirby crackle effects for his tuning fork.

August catch up post, Crossbones and Masque on the 1st and Jen arrived today. Mild complaint right away, I don't recall Masque or Crossbones ever really associating with AIM so I'm not very fond of that logo being on the briefcase. Masque's modern style porcelain artsy face came out very nice but I don't think I'll ever switch to it over her classic gold face. Crossbones was the reason I got the set and I've got no real issues. Some of the paint on his mask is a little out of the lines but the eyes and mouth are perfect so I feel like that scratchiness on the other details actually fits the character. Obviously more guns would've been great (more accessories are always nice) but he does have a decent loadout here. The explosion piece included in the set just feels like a last-minute decision to raise the total piece count. I wrote a glowing review of the Iron Man retro wave Jen that ended with me saying I'd totally get a repaint in her F4 costume and now that I have that repaint I can happily report that the charm of this figure has not worn off. The green feels a little better and the accessories/alternate parts are a notable improvement. I think for long term display I'll stick with the standard big-hair and smile, but the face on the ponytail alternate head is such a good expression too. The thumbs-up and peace emoting hands are both nice but I want to leave her with a dumbbell so if it's gotta be one then I'm picking the one that can also double as her giving someone else a silly photo experience.

I believe the leaks were Black Bolt/Triton and Medusa/Gorgon. I think Medusa needs to come with a base like the Phoenix, but I suspect it's not as sought-after

Is it just me or the face with the ponytail giving McKayla Maroney

Kim Kardashian.

I'm shocked you have that unreleased Bi-beast, yet not the Fantastic Four Classics Dragon Man. Dragon Man is super rare and expensive but I figured you of all people would have the means. I've got both Dragon Men now and the tail on the old one does not bend for anything in the world. I wish they had talked some shop with Mattel. Like on the Hammond Collection Spinosaurus, It has a thin bendy tail then covered in a very pliable pvc skin, so it has the girth the tail should while also having greater bend than you would expect.
