That looks great. I recognized who he is supposed to be before I read what you wrote. Sorry to hear about the loss of Snake Eyes, he was a great action figure.

Thank you I'm actually pretty happy with how it turned out. The Snake Eyes is/was indeed awesome but I'm planning on getting the ninja three pack anyway. From what I can tell the SE is the exact same as the single version with different colors.

Yes, I love the look of that figure, I've gotta pick that one up.

Emailed the dude a few times and no response. I don't want to open a dispute or anything though, still got a decent price on the fig and I'll probably not even notice after a while.

It's funny, I'm in the same boat. I picked up my Nihilus in a small lot with Darth Vader and one saber, so now my Nihilus is stuck with a Vader light saber. I highly doubt I'll find a Nihilus saber so I may just try to get a new one and use the one I have for a custom, I'm not sure. Can someone post a pic showing the Nihilus saber? I'd like to see how it's unique.

Normally I hate to have a figure just "standing there" as opposed to doing something interesting but DAMN, Malgus looks soooo good just standing in place and looking scary. lol

And here's some quick, fun, little "Star Wars Fights" pics I took last night...

I'll trade a Walmart Avengers 6" Hulk for a Malgus. PM me if interested.

Done. Thanks.

Who's the lady Jedi with the dual lightsaber?

Bastila Shan

Who I still need

snake5289 · 06-19-2012, 08:50 PM

Thanks. And after seeing it you and me both. Her and Malgus are some awesome looking figures.

Thanks man!
And as annoying as Malgus's hips are for an articulation junkie like myself, he seems to "rock" in every pose I can think to put him in. ;D

red5ive · 06-20-2012, 05:51 AM

Got Shae Vizsla today. Really impressed with the figure. She didn't really look good in the images that I'd seen but the actual figure is really awesome. I don't believe that I'm saying this but Hasbro did a mighty fine job with this latest female figure.

Optimus Vader · 06-20-2012, 06:52 AM

Is the Shae wave after the Malgus wave? I'm pretty blown away at how little SW I'm seeing in my area right now. Other than MU, which we know has been on hiatus and hasn't done anything new in months, every other line comes and goes, but nothing new SW since about Feb.

Mastersteef · 06-20-2012, 08:02 AM

I apologize if it looks like I took these pics with a potato but my cellphone camera sucks some serious ass. :/

I took the hood from my vintage collection Darth Maul and gave it to Malgus since I hate how "poofy" his soft goods hooded cape makes him look...

Iceman · 06-20-2012, 08:27 AM

I like that idea a lot. Just need to score me a Malgus.

I tried that as well...I didn't really like the way it looked, it's just a tad too big and doesn't fit around the bulky head properly. I said this a couple of pages ago but that hood looks really nice on Darth Revan.

Groundswell · 06-20-2012, 01:57 PM

Man, that Malgus looks incredible. This, along with Nom Anor, are the two SW figures I'm anxious for. Found a Nom yesterday at Wal-Mart, but terrible paintjob on the face and armor prevented me from picking him up. Haven't seen the Malgus wave except for one Darth Vader that was at my Target a week ago. Really glad the price has dropped a bit on ebay, because I might cave in and just pick him up there.

Malgus is reoffered in the Shae wave (wave 5), which, yes, came after the original Malgus (wave 3) and Nom (wave 4 and 4 revision 1) waves.

D00MTR0N · 06-20-2012, 05:03 PM

I would not count on retail for malgus,just sayin.

vampireheart · 06-20-2012, 10:47 PM

I know this doesnt really go here but im selling these, shoot me a fair offer for the lot

flipwilson · 06-21-2012, 01:03 AM

If I don't find any new star wars figures soon, I'm going to eat my head live on webcam.

PROVOST · 06-21-2012, 07:54 AM
