Big Bad Workshop General

Very interested in the civvies in the new line. I hope the cheerleader gets multiple portraits, but with different face paint applications and hair styles/colors. I need to have a small group of them for Leatherface, Michael and Jason to torment, not just one.

We know she's getting multiple heads of some kind. The Priest comes with 5 total, so hopefully she's similar.

I read that as Reagan. Seems like something the dude bros would have put out by now.

Not for nothing, an old "Space Force" Kickstarter by Amazo Toys randomly and hilariously included head options for a bunch of presidents including Reagan. I'm unclear what the connection between the companies is, but Fresh Monkey Fiction would eventually go on to fill those orders and add some of the characters (like Commander Coco) to their Eagle Force line.

So it definitely is in Big Bad Workshop's DNA to make a Ronald Reagan action figure. And I'd probably get it. Not out of any love for Reagan, but for the gonzoness of a former president faking his death so he could lead the nation's counter-terror* task force from the shadows.


*see what I did there?

I believe it was one of those situations where smaller toy companies were helping each other out by sharing parts. So FMF was going to supply a lot of the tooling to get the Space Force line off the ground. My understanding is that after that Amazo basically fell apart and couldn't get their shit together, so FMF essentially bailed them out by fulfilling all the orders themselves but also got to keep all the revenue? I could be misremembering parts of that.

Is that a thing? That's pretty cool. I'd assume start-up figure makers would be in direct competition. There's only so much collector money to go around. A Plunderling sale is money not being used for an Animal Warrior, so to speak.

I'm sort of happy I'm wrong about that.

It's a thing. The Savage Crucible guys are allowing that weird line of like.. angel warriors wearing armored belly shirts..?... to use the base Savage Crucible bodies because that company was clearly struggling to get their figures to an acceptable release state and it was easier to borrow a body and put new heads and armor on it.
 
I am 99% sure the demon heads that come with the priest figure are from the Biblical Adventures line.

My house is packed with weapons, due to life-long martial arts practice and current status as a theatrical fight director (I’ll be play-acting beating up crippled children in Disney’s Newsies this weekend, yay! . . . 😬) ,

Gods, I wish I could find it but there was a comedian that had a bit about him and his friend doing this exact thing in the street during Mardi Gras for tips. It was funny as hell....

DESTRO is an arms dealer and has a billion times more personality and uniqueness to his concept and design. This is just lazy edgelord bullshit.
Tell me one reason why an arms dealer -cannot- be a werewolf mummy armed with a gun that shoots smaller guns that themselves shoot tiny chainsaws. One reason.

A mummy arms dealer that uses his Museum display to smuggle his enchanted weapons around the world and claim neutrality while he deals to all sides.

A werewolf arms dealer that only meets during the full moon cycle because then he and his muscle can have the edge in intimidating, and even sell their own moon water from a paw print if someone wants to buy the curse, or custom silver bullets, making them outcast traitors to the other packs.

Or a skin walker arms dealer who comes to unsuspecting clients in the desert night, or who you have to seek out in the Appalachian nowhere.

A Dr. Frankenstein arms dealer who sells you arms and more to make bespoke soldiers.

A bodysnatcher arms dealer jumps from body to body to keep his trail clean, and sells otherworldly merchandise.

Damn.
