Invaders Torch is just a totally different dude.

Showdown Thing, on the other hand, is one of the best 4 inch scale Marvel figures ever made, imo. Nothing Hasbro has done has come close.

Showdown Sue is fugly. The first Hasbro Reed is terrible, but the second is passable. I'm not the biggest fan of Showdown Reed, but he's not the worst I've seen.

As far as being banned from sites go, I'm currently on a forced temporary leave from a certain marvel news site that has a mod that I keep call out for d-baggery, and then I get in trouble. Ce la vie. There are always other places to go to talk about toys. I've been enjoying the ark quite a bit as of late.

I dig FO becuz he looks more like an actual flame w the translucent effect. Great thing about our hobby is there's always something for somebody.

Glad ur digging the Ark. I highly recommend it... so far. You and I go back to the early days of the Marvel Universe thread on HT and you've always had my respect.
