Also...forgot to mention. Looks well better WITHOUT the goofy wings for our scale. Sit nicely on it. Will post some pics later.

Got Lockjaw in the post. Way cooler than I thought. £50 quid is steep but if you're all in on the Inhumans what can you do?

Taking pics, probably on Wednesday night. Busy today with house bullshit and nurses all day (not even any cute ones either lads) coming in and out. Think there are four different visits today. Plus some home adaptation specialist from the council as well today... funny to type specialist and council in the same sentence. Talking about ramps and a floor to floor lift, door widening...that stuff. So my day is shot already.

Hopefully, can set some shit up tomorrow and snap a few pics. I want to do a couple upgrades to Gorgon. Might squeeze that in before Inhuman pics.

Got stands (cheap ones, not my beloved ProTech ) for the HYDRA attack troopers. Got 40 for like £6 shipped, was gonna use them for FORCE AWAKENS figures, but Strucker pinched them before they to a shelf far far away. Might set those little green bastards up and snap a few as well

noticed that a couple of my local toy stores are now selling the astral strange and yondu/quill 2 packs.also grabbed elements of the maestro wave.im impressed with the maestro and x23,moonknight and IM are okay,passed on lady DP and spidey uk.
also on a side note it looks like toystores in NYC have restocked on homecoming packs,maestro wave and hydroman waves!
ukmu i was going to pull the trigger on a lockjaw but grabbed a Goliath ironman gigantic battles pack instead.we may yet see a repack of lockjaw maybe in an upcoming 2 pack or a new inhumans boxset,i only say this after seeing the pics on the new GOTG set.

[ukmu]

If you get the chance....get him. He is awesome. One didn't think it was worth it and now that we have an Inhuman setup it is vital.

I wager he is pretty expensive to make. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for him to repacked. I think he was a one off. I don't see him going too much over the €50 Mark as he topped out almost immediately. Can't see him going much more, so you've time.

[Jackieboy]

ill pick him up in time.no rush,the inhumans movie is in the works so lets see what gets released for that movie!
i wonder what other ragnarok figures will be revealed for the 3.75 collectors?

I thought the Inhumans movie was cancelled in lui of the TV show coming out soon. Lock jaw is a nice figure to have but not worth the price tag that its going for at the moment. I know Angry nomad was selling casts for $20 plus shipping before he closed his store. i know it doesnt help but im sure another caster could do one if they are in demand

[Jackieboy]

really?i didnt know it was cancelled.that sucks.ill still try be optimistic seeing as they are including TV figures into lines.
i heard about that guys casts in the past but unfortunately i never actually seen one.

[Oscarv]

They really need to pull their head out of their backsides and realise the huge potential of making more cinematic & TV figures in this scale. For us poor people who aren't great at customs (can't be bothered), they could make a fortune.

as i was saying i really do want a lockjaw 2 pack

[Il Cattivo]

I hope they knock it out of the park but that trailer doesn't look too promising and it doesn't help that the showrunner is the same guy who did ironfist.

Yeah thats the TV show that the first episode will be shown in IMAX cinemas.

Actully doeant look that bad and loved the little cameo in the trailer of crystal amd Triton too

[ukmu]

Inhumans is a show like Agents Of S.H.I.T.E.

Well, custom box is out. Paint spilled already and floor is covered in my blood. Sounds about right and par for the course. Time to put it away and order a curry.

[Jimmyo]

Looked ok to me

i was thinking with the few netflix figs that got released into the legends line,maybe they can reuse the mold on lockjaw and show us some love.

[ukmu]

It doesn't look bad at all. That said, my hopes aren't too flippin high for it. The costumes are slightly cheesy, the acting looked a bit stiff and the pacing will be slow over the season. I'm still gonna watch and most likely love it!!!

I do like that they travel to my old home!!! Honolulu is a great city. I miss it.

Inhumans are the new "it" thing. Now Disney/Marvel has its big three for teams. Even the cartoons has the INHUMAN REGISTRATION ACT as the kicking off point for Civil War. They have almost successfully written the X-Men out for the upcoming generation. Disney plays he LONG game. They figure millennial kids grew up watching it as an after school cartoon and generation x men read the comics. They can't reach them, so they are targeted their children and their children's children. The kids today generally aren't into X-Men or Fantastic Four. Another 10 years of their boycotting those teams should do the trick. When the 10 year-old kids are thirty the X-Men will be truly dead.... swoops in Disney/Marvel buys them back and reboots for a whole NEW generation in the 2030's. Bloody brilliant.

Maybe.... but I bet they would want like £25 €30 $40 on his own. He is a giant beefy wad of plastic. Weighs as much as ten figures.

If you are on the fence, I say pull the trigger. Fifty euros and you're in. It is a lot, I just recently did it and I can say I am a million percent happy with him! In fact, get one and I will do you a Gorgon for free (legal disclaimer parts must be supplied) to go with them! Team sorted and great value for money. The parts are cheap too.

Which by the way.... I have a FULLY ARTICULATED version 95% finished. A lot of sculpting.

[Jackieboy]

im gonna hold off,im thinking we will see him released into the regular line just like they did with those taco set figs.and if they wasted all that effort on a god aweful giant ant,why not make a 3.75 fig that collectors wont complain about and actually need.
also how did your armin zola turn out in the end,did you finish it?
i may pop a jacket on mine,seen some wwe figs at reduction,undertakers and nasty boys with coat accessories!

[ukmu]

Still need a left hand....

Well, that was quite the pro 6" propoganda read. Even the replies were as well. Is your boy going to be selling this wave Mikey? I would like to help support small local people if possible.

[Jackieboy]

that was a nice little review on those upcoming figures and clever of the author to use it as a platform to get at hasbro about future releases in the legends line.interesting mini debate in the comments section about pricing,its the drive as a collector that makes me pay whatever they retail at nowadays,but i would love hasbro to give us value for money by including accessories that we can actually use.wouldnt it be cool if they included pieces that allow us to build our own danger room? or stark hall of armors? its easier to achieve this idea through the 3.75" line than it is the legends line.pricing will never be an issue for those that can afford it! but they need to include more useful accessories!

[mikeyb101]

Yeah the guy that runs the site is definitely a 6" Legends fan more than a 4" one. They do have a point about the pricing though.
I've asked if my source is getting them in and but he says he doesn't know yet.

[Jackieboy]

goliath arrived in the post yesterday,nice figure!!!
