That's fair. It's just a weirder version of Action Force in that regard. For me, the weird is enough, but that's for sure a personal taste. I heard Monster Force starts crowding the boarding gate before the airline calls their numbers.

Yeah, real shame about Shang-Chi. I thought everybody really liked him and thought his movie was a breath of fresh air. I wonder where his post-credit scene was supposed to go. Shuri, however, has an uphill battle for me. I didn't take to her as T'challa's genius sister, let alone as Black...

I've heard this Timeless Child theory before, but not this specific interpretation. I really like it. I'm otherwise okay with the current status quo. I'm not normally crazy for writers just undoing previous writers' stuff just because they didn't like it.

I'd be so mad if I found out BBTS was intentionally delaying shipping my pre-orders. I'm not a completist, but I'm way more into OMF than it sounds like most of you are. I've been really looking forward to Wave 2 and am super-stoked they've finally arrived.

Dude. I'm only calling BS on anybody who claims these weren't spread out. Having all of them show up after a two year pre-order is exactly the same as them all being spread out over two years. I'm sorry you had troubles, but I'm glad you were together enough to recognize your priorities. It's...

Spread things out? You've had, like, two years to prepare for these. If you don't want them, you don't want them, but you can't say they're just suddenly showing up.

The week between "processing soon" and "in your pile o' loot" is going to be the longest week of the year.

If anybody's still interested, the SNAKE is in-stock on Pulse.

That's actually a premise I hadn't noticed but there is some evidence to back up. They do show a lot of memories of her singing karaoke with Maria, fer instance. Like you said, there's no change or acknowledgment, so it's really some sub-subtext.

Captain Marvel It still feels rude that they skipped a solo Black Widow movie, but Captain Marvel at least *should* be the predominant female Marvel hero. I wasn't reading comics at the time, and I think this is how I learned Danvers had taken the name Captain Marvel. It's a move that made so...

It should have been, yes. The time heist was great. A really fun and organic way to revisit everything that started the MCU. No notes. But the grand finale it lead up to, the last 30 minutes of the movie (not counting 15 minutes of goodbyes) was an epic throw down of every hero ever vs...

Guys, please. I'm starting to hate scrolling through this thread looking for actual GI Joe talk.

Yes, but not for the reasons you might think. I found time-travel Thanos to be kind of a boring final foe. He had no idea who these people were, and we'd already seen him AND his Order defeated by the Avengers. I don't think Nebula's story exactly lead to be taking the gauntlet, but the...

In most cases, destroying something is very different from making something. I mean, during the final fight, he sticks Hulkbuster in a rock and crumples War-Machine into a ball, but after he leaves, they're both just up and walking around.

It's kind of crazy to me that I'm so old that my childhood is now a retro setting. But yes, some things just belong in the 80s.

@Jolene00Negative, playing Star Trek Adventures, do you find that it's more like recreating an episode of the show, or more like having an adventure that just happens to take place in Starfleet? I've never played it, but it seems to have some narrative elements that keep it from being just an...

Why are there still early reviews?!? Give me my effing Monster Force!!

I really regret the SNAKE armor. Not that I didn't get one, but that I didn't want one. It's an iconic, must-have piece from my childhood collection, but they went way too big on it. So they've burned a required item for me by making it something that won't fit in my collection. And that's...

I'm often guilty of the "that's not what I would have done" bias, but in this case, I got drawn into the show based on its original presentation and then they changed everything I liked about it. It's like if Sliders fast-tracked to season 4.

I absolutely loved (early) season one Mando and Baby Yoda. But the farther they went along, the farther they got from what I really liked. I was an immediate fan of an underdog Mandalorian with his scrappy armor, Lone Wolf & Cub-ing it around the galaxy in his beat-up space camper with a magic...

Canonically, he lost to a squirrel, so...

I mean, nobody should be disappointed that they know what priorities are.

Hold up, let me check my notes... Yeah, Isaacs was my Lex Luthor fancast a decade or so ago.

I was unimpressed by the Steeler/Short Fuze reveal at the time, but I *just* got the shipping notification for my Ramen Tank the day before they went live. No way that was planned, but it was very effective.

Dang. I spent my morning getting Duran Duran tickets instead.
