I would be more than happy to contribute, just not on camera. I have a face for radio and I get called ma'am on the phone. A lot.

I feel like all of you should collaborate on an Articulated Thoughts YouTube channel that parodies all this shit with utter deadpan.

Bringing you on board. We need someone to do reviews that's literally shocked by every point of articulation.
"Not sure if his hea.... of YUP, guys.. the head swivels. Oh shit... it has some tilt too. Jesus Christ. Let's see if... goddamn, the arm swivels ALL the way around..." Every. Single. POA.
 
I feel bad for laughing at that GIF, but it's strangely appropriate.
Found a single Darklon on the pegs tonight at Wallyworld, so I suppose fate has spoken. They had the whole wave and the cop, too, but for $40 I'm not biting.

You have flawlessly captured my penchant for blasphemy! I feel seen, really.

I can definitely do this kind of energy:

I absolutely would've thought about 8/10 of those Joes had the most appearances, but not in that order, not by a long shot.

Right? Wild Bill is the shocker for me heh. Breaker too really, but I guess he had job security until Dial Tone showed up, as the guy who explains shit from the computer.
 
Holy crap, I took the dog for a walk and got a notification Sci-Fi will be here TOMORROW from Amazon (I think I just played Amazon/Pulse chicken too long... It's stupid but I kinda want two of him so I can display one with the full mask/helmet and one unmasked. I mean that's a pure unadulterated waste of money but.... And Also Mainframe will be here on Thursday from Amazon, Grim Viper now expected 11/30 but I bet that will move up soon.

Speaking of, looking at Mainframe's head and wondering... could that be the replacement head for screaming Crazy Legs? Standard issue black-haired white guy... has potential, if the pegs match.

Speaking of pegs matching, has anyone ever
a) swapped the Crimson Guard heads? Talking with Ru I kinda want to make a Wade Collins CG using maybe an extra Law head, but I don't want to ruin a perfectly good CG if the heads aren't easily swappable (traumatized by my three day battle with the greenshirt's neck peg). and
b) goddamn, has anyone found a head that fits on that turgid ball at the top of Barbecue's head? I want an unmasked BBQ but legit none of the solid dozen heads from Marvel and Joes I've tried have worked so far.

None of them fit perfectly. I have a bit of blue take shoved in there. you may have to hollow out a little material for a better sit.

Why do three Dreadnoks share one spot while the Crimson Twins each get their own?

I’ve been using the unmasked Kamakura head for Barbeque. It’s a little tight but nothing that can’t help.
