    G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

    there's that one helicopter stunt in the original Magnum PI. Copter comes out from over/through some trees as a car drives by. It's so crazy. Looks awesome. And it was just for a weekly tv show. I love watching 70s and 80s shows almost for the weekly stunt shows they had. Rockford Files...

    NECA '87 Toon TMNT

    I found the vacation Turtle 2packs and mother/baby Rocksteady & Bebop. Got the two turtle packs. Bought an additional cheap toy to bump them up to the $20 off value. Can always return the cheap extra toys. Although I used the MOTU sketchbook Spikor for one, which I may keep. Knocks about $5...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

    Oh don’t get me wrong. The new Baroness body will be reused. But I doubt Pilot Baroness will. Certainly, a new Baroness in black will happen on that body. And a medium blue (cartoon, early comic). And maybe a crimson further down the road. I can see the pilot version of her being locked behind...

    Tracking toy tariffs

    Well, that’s assuming there’s enough conservatives in power (Supreme Court and Congress) to go against Trump. Congress has already bent the knee, and the Supreme Court has already almost given Trump supreme power. We haven’t seen any pushback happen yet. And just wait till the military is rolled...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    Not a fan of black elements on Iron Man armor. And find this armor unappealing overall. Hopefully, it doesn’t come with a BAF piece, so I can skip it.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

    Ah yes. I imagine normal versions of Crazlegs and Ripcord will come out. Maybe next year. I think Wild Bill will be released individually but may have more cartoon colors. Wild Weasel and HISS Driver could also be released but down the road a bit. I don’t figures like Glenda or pilot Baroness or...

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    Yeah. The Epic skeletons are super fiddly. Frankly, I think their HACKS skeletons may be more solid. I got a bunch of the Epic ones a couple of years ago during a holiday sale. Think they were half off. Thought having some different colored skeletons would be fun. With all kinds of line. Cobra...

    Operation Monster Force

    Dr Brain N Jar hit by pile of loot. I may get one sleepwalker and aerial guy to be his henchmen. Donner, Eraser and another one or two for a Creature Commandoes team are potentials. But there’s so much hitting right now. May just hold off on those.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

    Cobra Island were Target exclusives. Some were offered up again later to other retailers, with nothing really changed. Others had their character revisited. I’m not sure what kind of exclusivity deal WM and Target have for their line, but I’m assuming it’s just a timed exclusivity for something...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

    Maybe since the first Mole Rat was a WM exclusive, they figured on changing the figure (deco and alternate head) and putting it out in the mainline. Maybe we'll see the same thing with other WM exclusives. Range-Viper repaint for instance. Big Ben.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

    Rumor is the next wave will consist of 5 figures. Big Lob, Hit & Run, Lifeline, Night-Viper, and Mole Rat v2. Supposedly, the line is switching to 5 figure waves next year. So Big Lob may be our next reveal. But the numbering would be a bit off from that list.

    NECA 2012 Turtles

    I'm wondering this as well. But I think TMNT exclusivity goes like this: Walmart has movie stuff and Target has 87 cartoon. Everything else is shared. Target has "out of stock" pages for 2012 Shredder and a Foot 2pk, so I think they'll be carrying all the 2012 figures. I think WM may have...

    Masters of the Universe: Masterverse

    Thankfully, I haven't been interested in the vintage Masterverse figures. I like the New Eternia ones better overall. Vintage Teela doesn't look good to me. And Merman looks like he's had his chest ripped open to expose some raw flesh underneath.

    Masters of the Universe: Origins

    Oh god. The abomination... Well, one less thing to buy.

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    Well, I guess I was wrong. I think Conan looks good. But I don't know how I feel about BFS in the 1:12 scale. Their skeletons are rather floppy. Obviously, there's more bulk to non-skeletons and a better chance for sturdiness. Red Sonja didn't blow me away. With Conan and Hellboy being in...

    HIYA TOYS Godzilla

    I assume they were just focusing on a couple of eras and will get to Showa eventually. Guess we'll see.

    Harvinger Studios, Savage Crucible

    Because I'm a fool, I just realized it's the same figure but with all the armor pulled off. I think they were showcasing the medusa-headed guy like that as well, but I haven't seen a clean pic of the stripped down look for that figure.

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    I bet that hinted Conan is another Immortal Champions one. In the Veebs interview they kept talking about Conan having a lot of looks. And the Walmart exclusive blue skeleton was just revealed. I think we’ll see another Conan for the line soon.

    Marvel Legends Gamerverse

    A fleshy Gargantos would be super disturbing. Like a Videodrome action figure.

    PLAYMATES TMNT x Godzilla

    Found these at Target today. $15.99. Looking forward to Donnie x Jet Jaguar. Wonder if there will be any other new ones to accompany him. I could see a Shredder x Mechagodzilla. Splinter x King Caesar. Casey Jones x Gigan.

    Mety Toys/LingJiHun TMNT Figures

    They may have enlarged the heads a bit. It was one of my complaints about the initial reveals. I mentioned it on their IG account. These in-hand pics look better to me. Maybe I've just gotten over the shock of the original small-head look, though.

    Operation Monster Force

    There's no need for the nun to be showing skin (other than her face). In fact, it makes no sense. Yes, it doesn't really make sense for a nun to be combat-ready. But why wear all that body armor but leave skin exposed? Makes no sense and looks bad.

    Operation Monster Force

    This Monster Force nun looks like they just slapped a nun head on a different character. Granted the image is only greyscale. Maybe it'll look better in color. Does seem reminiscent of a Warhammer 40k Sister of Battle.
