They really are fantastic little dio pieces, especially for the price. I think i might pick up some more, even. You can never have too many barrels.
 
Picked up the new set from Super Action Stuff. I got mine from Amazon where it'll be restocked sometime and it's still up for preorder at BBTS. It's a fun set. I did have to do some heating and straightening on stuff, but that was easy enough. The effects are all crisp and very brightly colored. The Mega-Smasher thing should fit most normal ML scale figures. It's a good set. There's a slight cartoonishness to a lot of SAS's work that is up to you if you like, but I'm happy he's branching out into things other than food and blood splatters. Hopefully at some point I can bug him to do some art again for a future set. One nice innovation of this set is adaptors that mean the energy/blast effects can port into the guns from other lines. That's a neat little trick.

I think the laser swords will go to Lilandra and Deathbird on my shelf. That feels appropriate to them. The mega smasher feels like something I could give to Forge. The rest I'll figure out later.

Nostalgia Unboxed just had a video on this set which made me aware of it. I love the metal "impact" effects from laser or bullet hits. Those will come in handy. I also love the melted slashes for "laser swords" that could be used in Star Wars shots.

Yeah, it's a pretty well thought out set. He's working on two massive magic sets next though they probably won't be out for almost a year I think. Still, good stuff. I always have to put the disclaimer that I worked a little with him on one of the arcade skins on his last set, so I'm not a totally unbiased source, but I liked what he was putting out before then and I've been excited for the stuff he's got in the works. Sounds like he's also working on some upgrades/new features for his weapons wall sets.

This set I was really excited for because of all the scifi stuff and I hope he does a follow-up at some point.
 
I can't find it listed on Amazon, but I do have it bookmarked at Nerdzoic and will keep an eye on BBTS to see who might get it first.
 
Dang this looks slick. Maybe if they do a night version... no... but maybe...

This one is harder for me because I had the silver chrome one from back in the day.

 
I kinda wish I got the Tiger Force version of the Sky Hawk. I'm not really into Tiger Force deco, but I love the Fans Hobby Sky Hawk.

I'm really wondering if Hasbro is planning their own version of this. They must be, surely. I keep thinking how wild a time we live in for toys. Just so much cool stuff.

I’m planning on picking up a few of these sets soon. They look fun

They're real fun. You planning to just get Cosmic Convenience or some of the other ones too? I've got several of the earlier sets so if you want thoughts on the others let me know.

I’m looking at that one and the arcade one mostly.

The blood effects looks cool, but I’d rather ones that peg on rather than need blue tack.

I have book shelves by my entry way and I like to switch the figures out with fun or action poses a few times a year.rather than taking photos

Nice. Well, of the two arcade ones I can only say I'm biased towards the one that has the "Cats With Knives" art because I did the art for that skin. I think technically mine's the alt colorway for the goodies inside. They're both good sets for sure.
It's brutally hard to maintain a reasonably sized collection.
Right?!
