    General Medicom MAFEX

    Which are still absurdly high, especially considering shipping will add another $50 on top to the HLJ order. My point wasn't to single out BBTS's pricing as egregious but rather to generally observe that toy companies have gone off the deepend with pricing. It's almost just standard for a...

    General Medicom MAFEX

    $135 for T1000 and $210 for T800/John at BBTS. The toy industry has gone insane.

    One A Day 2.0: Day #183 - Sin-Eater

    Wait, what?! There's a Nicholas Scratch in the Marvel Universe? There was a throwaway Batman/Azrael villain in 90s era DC by the name of Nicholas Scratch. Surely this can't be a coincidence? https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Nicholas_Scratch_(New_Earth) (As surprising as learning the Question and...

    Marvel Legends Preorders - When and Where

    I suppose by the time I became too old to want to spend time with people that are annoying, I was also too old to waste my time badmouthing such people. It doesn't really seem anyone has a better reason to hate this guy than what I said (his handle refers to poop!) so the pile-on in an otherwise...

    Marvel Legends Preorders - When and Where

    From that perspective, what is his public persona's worst crime? Did I miss him being an asshole online to others in the community? Because in the videos I've seen he seemed enthusiastic about toys and excited for the kickstarter he tried to launch (which I backed). Surely there must be some...

    Marvel Legends Preorders - When and Where

    Life happens and none of us are comprehensively attuned to every detail, even in our field of expertise. I've met Shartimus briefly in person and he was a friendly, kind person with whom to talk toys and music. I've never understood the public displays of animosity toward him. (Not meant to...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    Agreed they don't quite work for me as beat cops. Or beat cops as seen in comic books. Modern real-life police are always so kitted out with all the military toys they waste over half our municipal budgets on that they do all look somewhat SWATish. And I have the militarized SWAT look...

    I love that as stacked as this description is, it doesn't even get to the *monocle* on this boss.

    ML Mini Comic wave

    didn't Banshee work with Interpol as an agent before he was a superhero? I remember this from Generation X comics. Maybe he used a gun back in the day! Exactly! Everyone is noting the lack of both fists (which is a legit complaint) and the weird hips (fine to my eyes), but the unmasked portrait...

    Combat Creatures

    Great to hear that you had no paint issues. I also heard back from the KS creator. There were 2 others that reported the paint issue so maybe there was a bad batch but it doesn't appear to be widespread. That's good for me, and great for him, as I imagine it would be ddvastating to realize a...

    Combat Creatures

    Thank you Thank you. I reached out and he was gracious, said he'd followup with the factory. Asked him if others reported similar paint issue but didn't hear back. Was able to glue the kneecap, don't much mind about that, but the tacky paint... man, I'm not really sure what can be done about...

    Did anyone else back this? Did you experience this issue? Hoping mine was a freak anomaly.

    Combat Creatures

    Just received the wolf and the bear from this kickstarter. Removed the bear from the packaging and started testing his joints and noticed the black wash on his fur is sticky and dying my fingers black. Not good...

    Can confirm, working in biotech. My multi-decade year career since my PhD has been a repeat cycle of inventing cool solutions to overcome previously intractable challenges only to have C-suite execs and academic founders run me out and revise history to pretend they invented my work. Happens...
