    Dammit...I was so excited to see Bloodwynd, I didn't even notice the chase next to his name 🤬

    Morrison's story was originally supposed to tie into 5G and the eventual Future State that sort of replaced it, which is why is starts with him meeting with JFK, but around issue 3 or 4 the plan was changed and they folded it into what PKJ was doing. That's how we ended up with the "Superman...

    As far as I know, Philip Kennedy Johnson's Action Comics run is still in-continuity, and Morrison's Superman/Authority mini was part of that. It didn't narratively all fit, as per Morrison's usual, but it's part of mainstream DC continuity. The Warworld Saga omnibus even has it slotted in there...

    BBTS has their exclusive Jada Frosty the Snowman in stock: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/321270 Nostalgia bug bit me, and it's the Christmas season, so I bought one. I'm more excited for the magicians bunny, to be honest lol Hoping they make the magician too.

    Holy hell Todd lol In for the Batmissile on day 1, I might even buy 2 just to make up for the fool who doesn't order one. I shall hear no slander on this ridiculously stupid yet awesome Bat-vehicle that I was heartbroken to see Hot Toys cancel. One of my favorites, and for some dumb reason I...

    Yeah? Well, more like...PISStank, amirite? I'm sure I'm the first who's ever said that, no one else has ever thought of it :unsure:

    Thanks! So, like this? [Iknowhowtospoil] I knew it all along! Haha, suckers! [Iknowhowtoendspoil] Don't click if you don't wanna be spoiled, muchachos.

    I don't know how spoilers work here, but imma give it a shot: [spoiled] I cannot believe they were able to sneak in the canister of ooze and the 4 baby turtles to go with the Shredder helmet. I missed out on some NECA accessory packs with them, so I can't wait to get this Rat King...

    Don't do that. Don't belittle what we are ALL into just to try and make your point about toys vs politics. Reducing our collections to "super serious stuff" is a cop-out, it's petulant, and it's a sign of a weak argument. It's a bullshit response, and you should feel feel bad for saying it.

    You might want to explore the board a bit, we discuss politics quite a bit here. Daily, in fact. It's part of the community now, we can't even discuss prices without discussing tariffs and, thus, politics. We didn't bring politics to the toy community, Great Leader did that when he raised...

    Nice, I love Freaks. I'm mostly a lurker, but I post occasionally. Great group, for the most part.

    I don't have sources/links at the moment, but Zaslav's contract stipulates that he would remain in a co-CEO role through '28 or '29 if a buyout were to happen. So unless he resigns, he's not going anywhere for a while no matter what happens. In that vein, Gunn won't be going anywhere either...

    This is extremely solid advice that pertains to so much more than just this car. Thanks for that, it's a hell of a great reminder that having fun should be above everything.

    You Ever Get Tired of This?

    I've been there. I'm fortunate my longer lasting relationships didn't have anyone shaming me, but some of the shorter ones did. Little snide remarks hidden as sarcasm or "jokes". The woman I'm with now is also a collector, and she's mostly to blame for reigniting my passion in collecting because...

    Third Party Figures

    This, right here, is an excellent example of what I was saying in a different thread regarding exposure to 3rd party stuff...I had no idea this thing was coming, I don't believe I would ever have come across it without seeing it here, AND I ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HAVE IT. Preordered. Damn, you...

    Far be it from me to critique how anyone spends their money, but something to consider - not supporting or trying out books by newer writers and artists trying to make their way is a sure fire way to make sure you run out of "A-List" writers and artists real fast. Before you know it, the same...

    They did say that, yeah. Re-usable "a few times" so you can switch it back and forth. A few YT reviews I've seen say that the stickers actually aren't re-usable and that you don't get very many of them for swapping, so I don't know. Mine hasn't shipped yet, so I can't verify it, myself. For...

    Mezco 1:12 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    That's my guess, too. I only have one Mezco with movable eyes (89 Batman), but that particular head is also a touch larger than the ones with non-movable eyes. Throws things off quite a bit. I'm happy to pass on these. NECA's are still perfect from a design and sculpt perspective.

    You Ever Get Tired of This?

    I got into 1/6 collecting lightly in '23 and more heavily in '24. I didn't have anywhere to display them at the time, but I knew that the day was coming soon that I would. One day, I counted the boxes piled up and I was at 28 figures. Probably 50/50 Hot Toys and 3rd Party. 3rd party are...

    You Ever Get Tired of This?

    100%! I have branched out to a lot of 3rd party and indie lines I didn't even know existed simply because I saw someone talking about them here lol "There are giant tiger men that look like kung fu monks, and not based on existing IP? Yes please!" I'd never find this shit if yall weren't...

    You Ever Get Tired of This?

    Speaking to this...in 2024, during that big Fwoosh outage (or was it '23? It all runs together), I didn't have anybody to talk toys with or to read about toys from. I had youtube, sure, but I don't do instagram and I don't really look at toy stuff on FB or any other social media platform. I...
