    Star Wars Black Series

    They continue to be 3008 and we, unfortunately, are still two thousand and late. But going off those videos, we do have some bangers ahead. Really excited for these next couple waves, but I'm definitely stuck in that in-between of wanting them to hit soon and wanting them to wait. Spent a lot of...

    Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies and Streaming Series Discussion

    I can see Doomsday being a hit, if only because people are curious for the return of RDJ, the X-Men, etc. The Avengers movies are, and will probably always be the big moneymakers, if only because it's when the most heroes come together and interact, which always gets people curious. But whether...

    X-Men '97

    No idea they even made colored hot glue sticks. Well, I know what I'm doing with my weekend!

    The Chatty Pointless Thread

    Stuffing is one of those things that everyone makes so differently. It wasn't always a smash hit, but when my Mom made it, it was always freakin' delicious. Same with the cranberries- whatever she did to it made them actually palatable. I agree- everything about the holiday is just a...

    X-Men '97

    That looks freakin' amazing, Justice! What's the process? Just drops of hot glue with paint? I may have to give it a try....

    Star Wars Black Series

    Firstly, absolutely on the Garindan figure. So surprised we haven't gotten one yet. Secondly, watch Labyrinth. It's a classic- such wonderful effects and puppeteering by the Jim Henson Company. David Bowie's bulge is legendary- that thing is a character in and of itself and should've gotten its...

    The Chatty Pointless Thread

    I always admire and am secretly jealous of anyone that does anything other than the classic "staples" of Thanksgiving- turkey, green bean casserole, cranberries, mashed potatoes, stuffing. Pecan, pumpkin, or apple pie for dessert. Not that there's anything wrong with all those (though how good...

    I guess someone's gotta ask it- best and worst Thanksgiving foods, in your guys' opinions?

    You Ever Get Tired of This?

    So what you're saying is that we're a bunch of dirty, lowdown enablers.

    You Ever Get Tired of This?

    To add to the convo, if you can remember- - What was the figure, if any, that broke the camel's back when it came to collecting? That gave you that lightbulb moment and made you question everything? - Conversely, what's the figure, if any, that re-ignited your love for the hobby? - And, just...

    The Relationship Overshare Thread

    That's a tricky thing. I've known a few people like that in my life, and while I don't think I was ever quite that bad, I certainly had my phase where, looking back now, I realize I was kinda off my rocker a bit. I had no idea how to not only process some traumas I'd been through, but also just...

    Last Game You Played

    Due to a lack of energy and overall focus from being pulled in a lot of directions by life lately, I haven't really had much time to play games. My poor PS5 has sat mostly unused since I got it. But I did finally pick up a copy of Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart for the PS5, and I'm really liking...

    The Relationship Overshare Thread

    Certainly patriarchy, certainly peacocking. It's that deeply ingrained toxic masculinity- men are taught to not only show off around women but not show any sort of emotion deemed negative (ie "feminine" or "not masculine")- no tenderness, no crying, certainly no relenting. On the rare occasion...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    Oh yeah, it's the easiest way to show that things are super serious for the hero this time- destroy their home base. Fortress of Solitude, Batcave, X Mansion, Enterprise, etc. No matter how many times it gets destroyed, one thing is for sure- it'll get destroyed again.

    2025-2026 Rumor/Leak List - UPDATED List 12-14-25 (after Fanstream)

    D&W Sabretooth would be a pleasant surprise, if only to go with the McKellan Magneto and Romijn Mystique. It would definitely make me want a Ray Park Toad all the more, though, and with how things have been going for the poor guy lately, I don't know how likely that is.

    You Ever Get Tired of This?

    I've definitely been feeling it more and more lately. I think as costs go up and distribution gets a little worse, it gives you more time to really reflect. Suddenly this thing that was a lot of fun and worth it at $15-20 isn't quite so worth it at $25-35. The margin of joy shrinks a bit. I've...

    I see what you mean. Every so often you'll have some nutjob who goes and commits a horrible crime and either they or the media claim "such and such movie made him do it". I tend to avoid the horror movies that just feel mean- they make me feel a little yucky. It's why I can't do the Devil's...

    Star Wars Black Series

    Looks like Entertainment Earth put it up as well for $80, with free shipping, so they have my order! Re: Dok Ondar- he really is such a fun figure. I hope you're able to snag one, alt. It's a shame they don't make the exclusives more easily available. I know they want to have some exclusivity...

    Yeah, the Chuckie blind boxes are cute in theory, but maddening in execution. I will continue to despise blind boxes for the rest of time- they'd sell just as many if they'd just let you know which one you were getting, but no. The only line I can really see the blind box thing working for would...

    Star Wars Black Series

    BBTS has a pre-order up for anyone who missed the Bespin Duel set. It's priced up to $100, though, so not that great of a deal. They also have the SOTE Boushh Leia and Luke 2 pack for pre-order if anyone missed it.

    Star Wars Black Series

    Yeah, YakFace said that solid cases of Bounty Hunter Asajj and Duel's End Vader were starting to arrive in the US, so those ones might be coming soon. Not sure on the others, though. But given a couple of reviews have started popping up for them, it wouldn't surprise me to see them before the...

    Star Wars Black Series

    I suppose cosplaying any villain is a bit odd when you put it like that. Even the healthier Joker fans who cosplay are still cosplaying as a homicidal maniac. But I suppose even the Joker has his morals- even he famously won't mess with the IRS. Nazis are, admittedly, a whole other level.

    Aw, heck, wish I'd known about those. Hopefully they'll make a small amount available to purchase after they're made
