    Star Wars Black Series

    I'd have to imagine the odds are probably pretty good of Palpatine being released individually in the future, it's just a matter of what he won't come with on the single release. I think ultimately I really just want a plain Palpatine with his lightsaber. Obviously the gnarly melted face is cool...

    McFarlane DC Multiverse

    I didn't even know the collectors' club was a thing until the other day, and only just now signed up for it. It appears they don't retroactively add your purchases to your point total, so I'm sitting on a big fat 0 right now. But that is a good point- if he charged $250 for 2 figures and a...

    The Relationship Overshare Thread

    I feel ya, friend. It's a lot of work at times, and you have to be prepared to have moments- long or short- where you're the one shouldering the responsibility for one or both of you, and I don't think anyone can really be faulted for not wanting or not being able to do that. It can be draining...

    At this point, we've gotten the Count, we're getting Oscar, so I just need Cookie Monster and I'll be set.

    Third Party Figures

    That's cool! Can see a lot of folks making a custom Killer Croc out of it. Basically already looks like it!

    Think that's the first time he hasn't wanted something with his likeness around. I hope it's like those mysterious monoliths from a few years back, where a new one just pops up in a random place. Would be fun to watch him spiral.

    Very interested to see what the pricing on the tiers end up being. The Batmobile wasn't too unreasonable, all things considered. I assume (hope) the base level wouldn't be the same for both- 80 for the Batmobile is one thing, but for a figure is way too much. Though if the pricing is lower, I...

    NECA - General Thread

    My LCS has had the WWDITS Toony Terrors for a bit now. I grabbed the last Nadja and Laszlo when I was there the other day. They were clearly the hot sellers, as they got in 3 of each character, and they still had 3 each of Nandor, Guillermo, and Colin. Definitely gonna pick them up, but didn't...

    I'm right there with ya! I haven't pulled the trigger yet- really hoping it goes a bit lower, but I feel like I may end up just doing it. I really only want Joker, and he usually goes for around 100-140 on his own the few times he's been put up solo on Ebay, so a little more for everything else...

    General Disney thread

    I think I've only ever put together one model kit in my time, which was General Grievous. I had fun with it. Definitely gotta take it slow, but the instructions were pretty clear to where even a newbie like me had an easy enough time. Had a harder time with some Transformers than I did with him...

    I prefer the term "litterbox" myself when talking about Catwoman. Also, if you just remove the word "woman", everything you said could also describe Nightwing. 😅 If only his parents had landed on them absolute trampolines, they woulda been just fine! Don't know what's in the water this week...

    They certainly do, but the other other thing is that, aside from lying, some people are just totally not self-aware. They really do see themselves as certain things, which makes it even more tricky. Men especially (on both sides of the aisle, I'll admit), may genuinely see themselves as a...

    I assume you mean the Arkham City Catwoman? If so, she wasn't a Platinum, no. I think the lasting love for the game, plus the fact that she was pretty much the only "basic" modern-ish Catwoman that could fit into many displays made her a hot seller.

    The Chatty Pointless Thread

    Who would you say is, then? I'd like to say Nolan North- he can do a wide array of voices, but there's something in his voice that I can always tell it's Nolan North. Same for Jim Cummings- amazing voice actor who's voiced so many iconic characters, but I almost always know it's him. Not...

    The Chatty Pointless Thread

    Awesome job! I always watched the hell out of videos like this back in the day to get my creative juices flowing. They got me pumped. Here's my baby if anyone feels so inclined. It's rough- still overcoming my geriatric side and learning how to edit, and of course there's things I didn't notice...

    X-Men '97

    Got around to opening Morph, Jubilee, and Sunspot yesterday, and I quite like them. Can't quite put my finger on it, but they seem a little more matte, or perhaps a slight bit more muted, than the previous waves. Or maybe I'm just imagining things. I do really like Morph; he was perhaps my most...

    Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies and Streaming Series Discussion

    Interesting. Wonder if Tombstone is the main villain or just a henchman for someone else. He's usually just the henchman these days. So we're looking at Tombstone and Scorpion at least, it seems.

    I know we've mostly moved on from the Tylenol bit (as we should), but a friend of mine shared a meme that said "If you only take Tylenol PM, your kids will only be autistic at night", and I thought it was hilarious. 😅 I also encountered a nutjob because of it, who tagged everyone who reacted to...

    For the record, it has been mostly on social media, but there have been a few real life friends as well. Thing is, I thought I knew where a lot of my friends and family stood- aside from a few surprises here and there, they've mostly all been really clear, but this past week or so has really...

    Articulated Thoughts General Movie News & Discussion

    I enjoy horror, but the gore fests- Saw, Terrifier, etc., I don't really care for. If it's just needlessly mean and needlessly gory, it's not usually my bag, but movies like Scream, or the Alien movies, or more psychological ones like The Others, Sixth Sense, etc. are right up my alley. Though...

    U.S. Politics

    Well put, Doc! I'd have to agree with every single point you made. I care less and less about what people think of me, especially because I know their opinion is often one-sided and ignorant in and of itself. I've cut more people off in the last year or so than I ever have, and I don't really...

    Melania kept trying for the bib, but when he saw Putin wasn't wearing one, he opted out. I suppose that would explain why he always stands like a kid who's halfway through crapping his pants.
