Where were you when this thread was hijacked by photos of arker's personal gun and knife collections? I wanted to say something then, but decided I would just let the moment pass. Or the "Slave Leia" thread that was ultimately shut down due to the animus and vitriol openly on display. Take a gander at the recent Mattel Ghostbuster thread for an example of tangential comments that have little place on a forum like this one. This space (Toyark) is used in a lot of ways; some I like, some others, not so much. No bigge. I'm a 'member' not an 'owner' and the space provided to us to post is unlimited (thanks Toyark)...so cut us a little slack to talk about comic art, at least it's somewhat germane to Marvel Legends figs lol
Not trying to pile on...I actually hear where you are coming from, but I also don't want to feel stifled when I participate on topics I find appropriate.







I want a Joystick fig now after playing around with Speed Demon...

First off, Steven is the best! Great show for young children and their adult parents. A remarkable 'toon, rife with many contemporary and parabolic overtones. About proportion problems and Toy Biz, I view it as a trade off for sculpted detail. Sure, Hasbro figures may have a greater aesthetic appeal for today's collectors, but I still find Toy Biz figs to be far more unique looking. Another small point I would add is that many (if not most) humans are not proportional. We'd all be models if there were larger numbers of us graced with perfectly sized limbs/trunks/heads. I actually think Hasbro is getting a little too reliant on buck re-use, and a proportional 'ugly duckling' (Ghost - recently used for Jack O'Lantern) should be thrown in the mix occasionally...just to provide some variety.
