    2026-2027 Rumor/Leak List - New Year, New Thread!

    What's everyone thinking for the Psylocke figure? Her hooded, armored costume? Repaint of the Gamerverse one?

    PLAYMATES Mutant Mayhem/Tales of the TMNT/etc.

    Guess we really don't know how the various licensees like NECA were handled. When they got the TMNT license, was Playmates part of the contract? Or did Viacom just get Playmates approval to grant NECA their own, more specific license (ie 7" figures). When I texted my friend (who has worked...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I’ve been avoiding All-In orders for a while now. Rising prices and my realization I need to be more choosey. Also, I’ve been with the line since the start and have hundreds of figures from it. Hard to keep that passion and dedication going. That said, I didn’t pre-order anything from this wave...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    People can throw playing cards somewhat effectively. But it just a silly visual as a weapon. Gambit may be better just charging marbles or baseballs. But it's not as cool visually. He's a rogue and playing cards are an indicator he takes chances. And I suppose a regular deck gives him a...

    G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

    If the revealed arctic figures are a 3pk, I'll be skipping it. I like the idea of arctic deco figures, but I don't like these 3 particular attempts. I wish the Legacy Firefighter was tan instead of black. I did buy a few of the firefighter, because I've long wanted civil servant action...

    G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

    Repaints are obviously baked into the brand (and any mass retail line), so I'm not opposed to the occurrence. And like getting more environmental-themed figures. But these aren't exactly great. Repaints are certainly more cost effective than brand new characters. Hopefully we do get at...

    G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

    I like the arctic SAW Viper, as his garb is bulky and looks appropriate for cold weather. The arctic Night Viper doesn't look to be equipped for cold weather with his skin tight outfit. I'd much rather have an arctic Cobra Trooper or basic Viper. Just repainting a figure white and calling it...

    Big Bad Workshop General

    Too many hands. Get rid of the gloved ones and put something else in accessory-wise. Like some rope with a grappling hook.

    Big Bad Workshop General

    It looks like the snake is a solid piece with no articulation. Hence why it doesn’t seem to add much to the overall cost of this set.

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

    Instead of the proposed, patriotic 3pk, I think either an Invaders boxed set or a Cap wave would be a better patriot-themed release. I think the head sculpts on the Colossus/Kitty 2pk are pretty good. I think Colossus' heads in particular look like Cassady artwork. I do appreciate finally...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I think a collection of mythological gods from varies cultures and religions is more interesting than all from one religion. Sort of a council of the all-powerful.

    Figura Obscura

    I've seen them mention a new "waist cut." Are they referring to the mid-torso articulation? Is it only a cut (swivel) joint? Or is it a ball?

    YHS/TOY ANXIETY Cryptoids?

    Yeah. I appreciate the uniqueness. I'm guessing there will be a more traditional Yeti colorway, since they also showed off a black Mothman. Assuming they'll have multiple colorways.

    NECA - General Thread

    Target’s periodic sales on toys is essentially the best way to get NECA stuff. Granted, Target needs to have the items available for purchase while the sales are happening. But unless you’re dying to get a figure, wait for those sales.

    Figura Obscura

    I have no ticket in the Christmas Carol characters controversy, since I wasn’t buying any. I do think Christmas items tend to be popular enough to be offered more than once a year. And if they only need one more Ghost, just make it and move on. Dragging it out too long is an odd choice. The...

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

    I like the costume because it is something different for the character. And because it does reference her ethnicity and heritage which is something not often done with the character. I also would love a figure of American Eagle. Which I’m sure someone will have a problem with.

    instead of Onslaught era Scarlet Witch, I’d rather have Heroes Return SW.

    Blokees Transformers

    I may be interested, if you're willing to sell/ship. Robot or dino version?

    Blokees Transformers

    Tell me about it. I kept having near misses with the TF Blokees. Would order some from Walmart. They cancel. Order again. They substitute to the One wave 1, which I didn't want and had to return. Stumbled upon some Galaxy and Defenders at a local store. Tried out two Defenders since...

    YHS/TOY ANXIETY Cryptoids?

    Well, it looks like they're going for a He-Man Origins type of form factor. So "muscular" makes sense. Looking forward to the rest of the line, as I think Mothman looks good. Purple version is fun and black looks cool. It's nice to see something like this. Cryptids in a different style.

    Masters of the Universe: Masterverse

    I loved Rio-Blast as a kid. I don't mind him being in MOTU, as the line is very much "everything goes." If Eternia can have a ninja, which is very earth-based, it can have a cowboy. If you're trying to wrap your head around it, Marlena could have brought all kinds of Earth knowledge and...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    i was a bit concerned that Warbow’s sash wasnt much darker than his body in early pics. but he looks good in the pic above. regarding a potential Skurge rerelease down the road. count me in as wanting him with some brown for contrast. But I’m not sure when he’ll get a rerelease. could be years...

    1/12 Diorama/Terrain/Props/Vehicles

    I like the HSC modern wall repaint. Was almost tempted in backing the Mythic wall, but I think it looks a bit plain. Granted, some weathering would be rather easy. Felt the grooves between the bricks could have been deeper and not so clean and straight to make it look less modern. That...

    1/12 Diorama/Terrain/Props/Vehicles

    Hmmm. Interesting. seems they also make a sewer scene. How do you like it? I’ve been sort of tempted by the High School Creations one but it’s kinda pricey. Ramen also has something similar in the works. I think both those companies offerings would be more durable. curious to hear your...

    Masters of the Universe: Masterverse

    I'm not interested in any future Masterverse female figures if they continue to use single-elbows. But I'm choosing to avoid the vintage subline anyway.
