    The stands that come with these figures are odd. They push the figure so far forward that they stand on the edge of the disc which is the only bad spot. And I had a figure using the plastic grip for a couple weeks, then when I pulled the grip-clip out, the plastic shattered in half at the...

    I love this Slice but can't help but agree. I think he looks amazing decked-out on my shelf but I'm not wanting to pick him up and do fun martial arts poses like I would the old toy. Taking a very simple ninja and adding armor is too much of a fundamental change. Why does he need shoulder...

    Good memory! I wrote about this in my mini-review but edited it out after it was easily fixed by cutting away some plastic. Mine was really badly misaligned, or at least I was more picky about it. Hilarious, I happen to have the first regular release Storm Shadow out and checked and yeah, I...

    I'm wondering what's up with the price, too. If it's just a regular-ol' price increase, or if it has something to do with a Capcom license? Did they need a license for this, or are the sprites on the back legally-distinct enough to not pay Capcom?

    Ordered Punisher/Nick Fury two pack. Not sure if I need it but cancelling is easy enough.

    Dice's axes are a little big to store on his body. They could go on his back, but I'm not sure if they could have fit all three of his weapons on his body. Maybe a backpack holster? I'll probably look into looping a tiny black rubber band on his back straps to hold the halberd, that seems...

    Hey I'm over here trying to make lemonade out of a lemon :ROFLMAO: Also, I'm gonna be "that guy" and say if you want more Ninja Force, buy the two-pack!

    Just playing around with the hat from Slice&Dice, along with Night Force Falcon's legs on Ninja Force Storm Shadow. I think this look is neat, it's a little JOE, it's a little NF, kind of a "wandering samurai" getup. Might do a little repainting to bring it all together. Just waiting...

    Slice had those velvet-y ribbons, too. My Slice had those stupid waist notches to keep him from rotating. Did anyone have a version without the notches? The GI Joe wiki says they exist but I feel like that was a big part of the figure.

    Love my Slice and Dice set. Would like a classic Slice, even a classic Dice with bigger boots (otherwise he's pretty retro). Dice's lack of butterfly joints is a bummer but otherwise the figures are great. Wish they would have done Slice's weapons in black if they're not going to paint them...

    Mainframe looks like he'd be able to fit well into proper 1/12th lines. I have him pre-ordered but also have no idea where he'd even go in a display. He looks like he works security in a building more than he fits in with other Joes. Having said all that, he still looks like a great figure...

    The chases were the worst part, but as a casual buyer, the Supreme releases were puzzling. You have a figure and a half for the price of two figures....just put a second torso in there! Who honestly is going to buy these and be like, "I'll just keep these other pants handy for when I'm feeling...

    I like the old Select Juggernaut a lot but he's kind of half-toy, half-paperweight. Excited to play around with the new Juggernaut. Articulation is king in my book!

    Getting this Wolverine in brown would be an insta-buy. Usually it's hard to get excited for ML repaints but bring on all the big Wolverines! Repaint that Cable figure into teal and purple alts while you're at it. Although ideally I need a Cable with ball joint torso and waist for those sweet...

    Wrestling Toys (Mattel WWE, Jazwares AEW, etc.)

    Jazwares has improved a lot as a toy company and AEW is unlikely to find a major backer so I am inclined to agree and hope for the sake of fans of the line that they continue making the figures. (I'm allowed to flip my opinion this quickly because I hadn't had my coffee before the last post)

    Good riddance. Jeremy Padawer made the AEW line junk with his 90s collectibles-style approach to the toyline. The toys were okay, I'll admit, but they spent so much on tooling parts to be used on limited-numbered releases, what's the point? I like the idea of another company making Kenny...

    I noticed the color swap as well. Either someone mixed up the colors in the two-pack, or maybe more likely, they're planning rereleases on Retro Cards.

    Meant to sleep through the Target drop but my toy-brain woke me up to order it as usual. Target had a nice $10 off $60 so I threw some Albanese True to Fruit gummy bears in to hit that goal. Mostly stoked for Steeler, he looks cool and he has my favorite Uzi and holster. Short-Fuze is okay...

    Man, this is why the line needs universal pegs/ball joints so badly. I can see the designers wanting to include that hand (and it should be included in multiples for the set) but being forced to skip it because the mold size is wrong.

    Two cops is hitting the sweet spot for me. One can wear the riot helmet and hold the shield, the other wearing the hat and glasses. The vest he uses from Law is just so good. I really enjoy having him hold the radio that can plug back into his vest. So...astronaut next? 👩‍🚀👩‍🚀

    They must have made way more Stingers. I wouldn't be surprised if it were 10:1. They have them at Walmart and Amazon so you just know there's a lot. I feel like a sucker for biting so early but it's a cool car so I can't be mad. The overall package isn't nearly as cool as the Vamp tho.

    Pants are the star attraction out of the parts, you're right. I bet they'd look great on Doc.

    I picked up an extra Spirit as well, he has nice parts and some gear that hasn't been reused. Not to mention Freedom the eagle is really worth half the sale price alone.
