    Operation Monster Force

    Wasn't there complaints about how light the exposed skin was with Chatsworth? They definitely addressed that. Looks pretty good and I put an order before the price jumps. Like Buttmunch said, the $70 price tag seems reasonable considering the cost of the other figures in the line. But he's not...

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    I've warmed up the idea (pun intended) of a Mignola-based series of Hellboy figures, like the use of "universe" in the above promo seems to imply. They'd really have to be 1:12 scale, though.

    Mezco One:12

    I don't think those Nemo sets were much of a hit, either. I would say they were a bit ahead of their time. I bought the two Nemo sets for pretty cheap at one point. They're both really great but I remember them sitting around a long time at ... I think it was Media Play way back then...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    I always kinda hated Mainframe's weird hat/helmet, so that second head is most welcome. I'll probably see if I can't use the main un-helmeted head on another figure. A spare Grunt or something.

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    We're not seeing a lot but it looks like it's going to be very true to Mignola's art. I'd rather have a less stylized version. The old Mezco figures hold up pretty well, I think, and I'm pretty happy with the 1000toys version — but it's hard for me to say no to good Hellboy figures.

    That was your MCU post-credit scene. More importantly to me, it explained where Krypto had come from.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    Wow, that Sci-Fi is everything I could've hoped for. Nice work keeping the brighter green but still finding a way to keep it from being over-powering with the black and grey. I'm loving the removable helmets.

    Also, did Wet-Suit steal Hydro-Viper's flippers?

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    I know there were folks hopeful for a robot scorpion, but I'll take a giant, mutant scorpion any time. This was posted on Hisstank from Full Force. I can't believe how awesome that scorpion is.

    Yipes, that is a mighty fine looking Wet-Suit. It's awesome that it's a removable helmet ... er, diving mask, too.

    Heard that the Marvel Legend Justice from the Void wave was showing up at Ollie's so I stopped by on Sunday. There was no Justice but there was justice in the form of Matt Murdock from the Spidey Far From Home wave which I hadn't seen at Ollie's before. Didn't see anything else new. Someone...

    Snow C.A.T. Live!

    I still find it hard to believe it hasn't even hit the halfway point yet (it's all tiers or nothing) but it's adding backers everyday and you know they'll be a big jump at the end, so we should be fine. It's when they start losing backers that you get nervous. I wonder if thoughts have changed...

    Just saw it myself and feel exactly the same way. Thought it was good in parts, not so good in others. Casting was good for the most part, Corenswet was a great choice. I really like how Superman was portrayed and I loved it every time the 'Justice Gang' was on screen, particularly Mr. Terrific...

    Third Party Figures

    The "Grandmaster" is genuinely awesome. And speaking of Xesray — I'm a big fan of the minotaurs that are still available on 5K Toys. I have Thales and love him, though I'm terrified to swap out his hands and feet. But he's a great figure.

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I've never paid much attention to the names or lore. They're great looking fantasy/sci-fi figures that have plenty of personality on their own. I don't know of any figure line that's wowed me with its names and lore, either. I usually end up doing my own thing in my head. (Actually one of the...

    Micro Galaxy Squadron

    I don't know about a lot of TRUs but I visited a store near the border in Canada (St. Catherines, Ont.) a month or so ago and thing it most reminded me of was a business that is really, really struggling. Felt like the end days of TRU in the U.S., to be honest. They've added like a record store...

    Micro Galaxy Squadron

    Sadly, probably the best Prime Day deal I've seen this year — Desert Skiff and a series 5 blind box for $6.99. Almost like getting the skiff for free.

    Chicken Fried Toys/Dime Novel Legends

    Kinda forgot about this. Thanks for posting all that. Pretty questionable that the situation has gone from having the site ready sometime around Jan. 15 to work is all but done on April 18 to just not mentioning it at all by July and telling folks they're not going to rush things as if it's some...

    McFarlane Toys General Video Games (Fallout, Diablo, etc.)

    I can't believe how bad that looks — bad for a $20 figure. It's insane to me that they're trying to charge a premium price for this. Think about Classified Mutt & Junkyard or Road Pig and Rawkus with the sculpting and the articulated animals and everything and then take a look at the pictures...

    Mezco One:12

    Pretty bad timing considering the Haslab campaign. Definitely would've went without a figure — who was pretty lackluster originally and more so now — but you're probably right, it wouldn't have shaved all that much off the total cost. I'd rather go with the Vala $180 package than throw nearly...

    Snow C.A.T. Live!

    They're knocking off the $6.99 shipping charge for everyone when they order — but there's also a $29.99 "Haslab surcharge" that is the "per item fee covering shipping costs." That's what's supposed to come off for the Premium folks.

    Marvel Toys on Sale

    Ha, I was just coming to post about Neca. Grabbed the blister card Elkhorn. I've had my eye on him for awhile but it's been tough to justify full price when I have the first Elkhorn despite the fact he was one of my favorite figures as a kid.

    It's just sad how little there is to choose from on the Target website across Marvel Legends, Classified, McFarlane and Star Wars. I have a Micro Galaxy ARC 170 in my cart which I have preordered on Amazon and I'm looking for something to add that will basically result in a $10 discount and...
