WandaVision Alright then, continuing my rewatch into Phase 4 is actually pretty painless, because I absolutely love WandaVision. It was so weird and captivating. While I've praised the way the original Avengers (mostly) got conclusions in Endgame, she was a late-comer who deserved to have her...

My dying breath will be to argue that the Thing is no taller than a regular person.

I don't care what the official stance is, Mummies and Gargoyles are in the same universe. I'd leap at some NECA Mums.

I guess I'm late to the show. I only want the Mace Windu. "The Senate" would just get chucked in a bin. If I'd felt like spending $60 on a Windu, I mean.

Aaaaaand we've done it. We've gotten through the entire Infinity Saga (minus Agent Carter because who has that kind of time?) It started over at Fwoosh, but it only took me eight months to finish. That's a little faster than I was expecting, especially since I got a little burned out there at...

I thought the smart thing here was that I didn't need nostalgia for these specific characters. Draculas and werewolves bring familiarity without the burden of lore. Add in gonzo designs like an invisible man hitman and a Tesla-punk Caligari and I'm immediately hooked. It requires that...

This is where I let logic take a back seat to presentation. In general, I think science fiction *should* be a look at ourselves. So an alien character dealing with modern social issues is welcome, even if the logic of the species doesn't really hold up. I say "in general" because I don't know...

I can see where you're coming from. I actually like GotG (and Dr. Strange and Spider-Man) serving as sort of continuity bridges from the Infinity Saga to Multiverse, but I can see how Vol. 3 doesn't actually add to the Multiverse story. I actually did secretly watch Black Widow after Civil War...

I don't know anything about the author, but I think it's too easy for people to see Whittaker and Gatwa only by their "otherness." Whittaker is the first female Doctor, and Gatwa's the first Black (and queer) Doctor, so they get defined by those traits. Somehow, I think I've only seen...

You guys know I loves me some Monster Force, but this line is so oversaturated now that I have to accept my enthusiasm was almost entirely powered by anticipation of Wave 2. It's been a minute since they announced something I was really excited about. Like, O:MF Wave 3 has the Ambassador...

I'm okay with "blip." It emphasizes the common person's incomplete view of what happened. Now, in Hawkeye, there's "Thanos was right" graffiti, so some information must be out there. It didn't occur to me at the time to pay attention to how much Cap said on the subject to his support group...

You may have to talk me through this. I love GotGv3, but don't see how it capstones the Infinity Saga. Sure it wraps up character stories, but doesn't really reflect on the Snap other than kind of through a time travelly Gamora. Black Widow *should* have been part of the Infinity Saga, and it's...

Spider-Man: Far from Home I'm glad they consider this part of the Infinity Saga. It gives us a decent denouement to the Snap/Blip and see, at least a little bit, how common people react to it. We also get confirmation that new heroes will be stepping in to fill the void left by the original...

Dang. Player 2 getting his ass beat.

I don't have interest or space enough for a broad collection of Jedi, but I am saving a spot for Sha'a Gi just in case.

Holiday Special 2: The Search for Sen Bolo.

They don't have the guts to do an original Jack of Hearts. C'mon, you cowards!

I guess? I mean, that one figure is 6 1/2", but it also seems like he's a shorter character. I'm afraid I know nothing about Biker Mice. I may've lost the thread, though. Is the theory now that the Star Trek figures are 1/11 scale?

I dunno. Uhura seems about neck-high to Kirk and is the same height as the lady-cow who is neck high to the bull-man next to her. I feel that's a more reliable measure than a red line drawn across a table. But I guess that means confusion does continue, sooo...

I did not know that. It doesn't make me more interested in them, but I get old collectors wanting to be able to continue their collections. Now, if Mattel decides to scale match their DC figures with McFarlane, I'mabe mad.

It IS Declan minus the scar. They're calling it Wave 0 because it's kind of prequel figures to the main line. In the name patches, he has one for "V Helsing" which isn't how that works at all.

I think I have time to see some reviews of Wave 1 before I preorder anything from wave 2. I'm still kind of turned off by the 1/10 scale, for some reason.

If I had to pick just two, I'd say go for the Sleepwalker aerial assault trooper and the Delta Red Nightshade unit. The Nightshade unit can either be Declan OR a vampire soldier (or a non-specific helmeted soldier) and comes with loads of add-ons and accessories to customize it. The aerial...

@Schizm, I think I see where you're coming from and your terms are acceptable.

I've no sequel trilogy figures, but I'm sure ready to get some. Like I said over in the movies thread, I'm less a fan of the films than I am of the characters, but I'm a really big fan of the characters. My movie fig target is typically in the area between movies 2 and 3 because that's when...
