Hasbro just needs to put a bullet in it's brain and end its suffering because MU is just a shambling zombie of it's former self at this point.

I just have them on my DVD shelf right now. My collecting of them is VERY limited due to both money and lack of satisfaction when I get them. I'll get the ones I like, sure, but it's always gonna be limited compared to other collections.

ML is also what is delaying a collection of 5 inch Doctor Who figures from materializing on my shelves. Right now, the only big figures that satisfy me are Bionicles.

Amazing!

There's part of me that quite likes the idea of a MOSC collection.

I've got a pretty reasonable 5" Who collection from back before Tennant left, they are the best. They've done a 5" Sherlock too I plan to get to add to them.

Just picked the target pack with Dino Dan blue and the motor cycle. Anyone want Dino Dans head to make a star lord custom?

The new Moon Knight volume is off to a good start and that's good because the last volume which Warren Ellis started was amazing so it was a tough act to follow.

It's p.bad I made a /co/ thread a few weeks back picking apart all the ways it misrepresents Roma culture for one.

Madame Warlock 05-30-2016 12:35 PM

I dislike the word pandering because literally nothing is considered pandering towards straight, white, cis guys. It's inherently biased against women & minorities and acts like a certain group of people should just get everything by default, because they are the "default".

Kamatayan 05-30-2016 12:36 PM

Anyone get the two pack Black Panther yet? Haven't found them in the wild yet.

They'd have an easier time establishing Spider-Man as gay since he's only been on screen for like twenty minutes and that was mostly in an action-scene capacity.

It's not possible to "establish" a character as heterosexual short of the character saying "Actually I'm straight.", and even then someone actually feeling the need to say that is suspect in of itself. They played with this on Lost Girl with the straight best friend declaring her sexuality pretty starkly to define the dynamic between her and the lead, but as the show goes on we find she's a bit more fluid than that, to the extent of there being an episode called "The Kenzi scale".

There's no way to declare a character as being absolutely heterosexual. The reason we have so many straight or straight by default characters is because of the censorship of the comics code(amongst other things). Yet a lot of the people who complain about the idea of them updating characters that were in some cases always intended to be bisexual(Wolverine, Storm, Hercules come to mind) are often the ones that complain about censorship in other avenues.

And yes, the fact that there's more outrage over the idea of a Bi Steve Rogers than a Nazi version of an superpowered Irish Immigrant created by Jewish authors and a Jewish scientist is absolutely poisonous.

We're going incredibly off topic again, folks.

Ninjinister 05-30-2016 02:33 PM

Does anybody know how that JW Pratt sizes up versus other figures in this scale? I wanna use the right sort of body so he doesn't look like a reverse bobblehead.

Maybe I'm not hanging in the "right" circles but I've seen almost nobody even talking about gay/bi Steve and Hydra Cap is literally the only comic story I'm seeing everywhere.

Cam isn't working so I'll just give a quick run down the head has Pratt look in the jurassic movie. It's not perfect but close enough. his body has little articulation mostly just enough for him to sit on his bike. The head is the standard pull and pop the neck hole is a bit larger than gi joes and marvel u figures. So nodding will most likely be need to fit most bodies. Now the bike is a simple repaint of the xmo wolverine bike and captain America bike that came with the cap apc. It's colored in a dark olive almost military green that suits the bike wonderfully. Really want a few more of this bike.

I think this is mostly a twitter thing like making the frozen chick come out too. Pretty sure the same group that started the frozen one are doing the cap one.

I'm mostly against it because it would be making an unnecessary change to a well established character to be all "PC" and "progressive," when, again, we don't NEED the change. It's like an article I read that said that Doctor Who NEEDS a female Doctor to continue. No, a female Doctor would make an interesting change, but it's not NEEDED. Now, I don't have anything against gay characters if they're a character first, and their sexuality is just a thing that exists(Jack Harkness, that Curtis guy on Arrow), but if there's no proper reason to make Cap gay, why do we need to make him gay?


Anyway, back on topic, I saw that Chefatron got wave 3, so hopefully other places will get it soon.

FAIL HASBRO! THAT IS A FAIL!

Grippen 05-30-2016 04:46 PM

I add BIG BIG FAIL...

Pretty soon no one remembers the movie. Maybe they are planning it for the bluray release.

Ninjinister 05-30-2016 06:22 PM

I don't understand where most of the merch for this movie was.

LordMudd 05-30-2016 07:12 PM

Lost in translation.

kylactus 05-30-2016 07:32 PM

I'm wondering if hasbros plan is to hold back on the individual titled movies and do a big push for Avengers. It would make sense. I think the fact that im2 figures were still on store shelves when im3 dropped taught them a lesson on over saturation. If they gave us every body every time they would really,shoot themselves in the foot, or ( in my case as a completionist) piss people off with the straight repacks or minor reprints. Not a lot of people other than hard core collectors are going to buy there kids five or six of the same iron man or cap, especially at 20 bucks a pop. I think the reason for ML peg warming is direct result of investment collectors giving up. If you have a bit of patience you can nab any of the ML movie figures on eBay MIP for less than they were on the shelves for in the last 2 years. Plus it seems hasbro has given up on timing anything worth a damn. I saw SW before I saw any decent merchandise on the shelves, and I think AOU was on DVD before the figures were clogging the shelves. I don't know why they can't seem to get the timing right anymore.
