Alright, think I got his torso sorted out. I think my heating and cooling method was mostly doing the trick, but went ahead and put in a few drops of shock oil which has me much more comfortable moving him around. Also went ahead and used a Gundam pen on the stripes on his mid section. I like...

Watched Dan Who's review and his move around with no issue at all. So I ran him under the hottest water in my tap for a bit hoping to maybe just free up the ball. The peg definitely got softer but I was able to twist him into a position that I couldn't before. Have him in the freezer now hoping...

Juggernaut arrived a bit ago. He's a big honking bastard, super heavy with a great look to him. But man, the peg for his diaphragm twist feels awful. The joint is WAY too tight and the peg itself feels WAY too soft. There's no way I'm ever actually risking twisting him. Peg feels like it'll...

There's a new Cloud and Tifa up for preorder. Cloud is Structure Arts? Which I think is a model kit? Tifa highlights my frustration with this line by coming with things that the regular release should've had: an alternate face and different weapon hands.

They don't, your best bet would just be to swap the "diaper" piece and legs from each figure

Brother, you're assuming that I don't have both I blame FuzzyBlueDemon who at the time had just gotten a new batch of Mythic Legions horses and got me wanting a 4H horse of my own.

Aaaaand now Juggernaut is arriving today

That skull head is pretty gnarly for the Classified line. I don't need it, but I dig it.

Speaking of Crimson Moon, with my incoming SNAKE armor it got me thinking that if money and space were of no consequence, I'd absolutely buy a second one to paint into this Man, I couldn't imagine a more insane way to start collecting, lol. I'm not sure if the aftermarket has come down at all...

I know there isn't much visibility inside the cockpit, but do I buy a trooper just to sit inside the SNAKE?

Hopefully that can lead to more consistency. That is a somewhat newer turn of events, I believe this is the first batch of figures we've gotten since that happened. I mean guys, this is a company that has a whole line dedicated to Christmas, which regularly ships out in January and February...

There's definitely a bell curve of figure prices with how big the company making them is. Small indie companies don't produce the volume of bigger companies and make less return per figure, whereas giant companies have way more employees to pay, both of which end up with higher prices. Those...

If you think I'm giving people shit for not affording toys then you're reading this all wrong. What I'm saying is that if you'd spent this money back in spring, what's the total net difference when crap hits the fan on a car, or a vet bill? At least now you have the capability to cancel what...

Something that GI Joe has that helps that consistency is a giant corporation behind it that has thousands of employees to micromanage stages of production and ensure things are flowing smoothly. As well as decades of experience with their partners in China. Unfortunately with that huge staff...

That stuff sucks. But if these things had hit back in spring when they originally were scheduled, what would that have changed?

Yeah, finances are finances. There's plenty of stuff that I've had to pass on because I just can't swing it at the time. My car ate shit a couple years ago and I had to cancel a ton of stuff over the course of a few months. It sucked. What kills me is just the overwhelming negativity of folks...

how much stuff is actually hitting right now waves 0 and 2 and a refresh of 1? I know at least wave 0 was originally listed as hitting last Spring. Now, if I took the money I would've spent on the figures then and spent it on something else, that's on me. But I knew these were still coming and...

"All this company does is show pictures and never actually releases anything" "This company is releasing too many things!"

Geez, my juggernaut still says the 21st, but I'm more than fine with that. Between Shuma shipping early, Monster Force hitting imminently, and my impulse buy of the SNAKE armor, I could use a break.

Got a processing soon email for The General! It's happening!

Watched a video covering the comic history of Shuma Gorath and now it's bolstered my desire for a comic Conan and Kylan Gath even more. I know there's several Conans floating around right now, I just want a simple one that stylistically fits with Legends.

It would be a good problem to have, but I think the Disney corner is hitting max capacity.

Sunday delivery from GameStop. He's pretty dang cool. Heavier than I expected which is hopefully a good sign of being made of durable material. Spent too much time and thought into figuring out if there was a preferable way to place his tentacles. He's got two types, ones with squiggly ends and...

Well crap. I just got paid yesterday. Which means that instead of passing on the SNAKE like I previously said I was okay with due to the size, means that I now have a SNAKE on the way.

Hawk too, huh? I hate myself
