I would be all over some Dire Wraiths. Love the dark purple paint job on that one.

I dunno, I'm really loving the way Fury looks. Those colors work for me for some reason! I bought a cigar set from Gridiron Studios last year that will definitely come in handy. If anyone has a good generic blonde guy head laying around I'd also be curious to see how he works as a Clay...

As far as 2-pack pairings go I think Moondragon/Drax and Starfox/Champion are pretty solid. In general, I think the pairings recently have been pretty great - with some notable exceptions like Lilandra/Broodverine.

Ha - this is exactly what I think of every fan's "If I was running the show..." daydream. Rattling off a list of wants is easy when you aren't having to deal with the realities of keeping the line sustainable.

I want to see them made too, but as far as deep Marvel lore goes, I think forgetting the Slingers can be forgiven...

Based on recent history, fire pants Super Skrull might go on a slight sale for Black Friday next year.

I'm such a newb that I didn't even catch the joke you were making!

Are these accurate alt colors from the game?

I love this! It really is something when you're finally able to assemble a group that you have a special attachment to.

Big fan of Morrison X-Men (and their other writings too). There were several years leading up to Morrison that were just...bad. Maybe the worst X-Men had ever been up to that point? New X-Men was a much needed reset of the status quo, and introduced a lot of concepts that had staying power. The...

Last day to order Apocalypse for anyone who was waiting!

I’m right there with you guys - did this sale get any promotion? Usually there are emails, notifications from the app, or Instagram ads. I had no idea this happened.

If it is this I’m sure it will be very cool, but I don’t think I’d have a use for it. I could definitely see them including a regular Punisher figure to entice people.

It’s what they’ve been doing with so much stuff. With the immunity ruling they’ve basically made it so any accountability for the President in any capacity has to come through impeachment alone.

Friend down the street had a Dreamcast. We played the hell out of Power Stone.

This string of 2-packs to close out the year has been pretty phenomenal. Gladiator/Deathbird, Starfox/Champion, Black Bolt/Triton, Medusa/Gorgon. That’s a tough act to follow - imagine a similar run next year that finishes off the rest of the Guardians?

I love this essay about this very subject: https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2013/10/steven-attewell-steve-rogers-isnt-just-any-hero

I think these takes are correct, but don't really address the fundamental problems with billionaireism. Acknowledging and/or backgrounding the actual holders of the wealth doesn't really deal it in any real way. That wealth is pretty fundamental to the X-Men existing and operating how they do...

I think the differences in what X-Men are and what they stand for is well taken, and probably correct. For what it's worth though, Xavier is very explicitly shown as being extremely wealthy from the very beginning, having inherited family wealth very much in the old school comic tradition of...

How much do the X-Men suffer from the "no good billionaires" problem? The Xavier estate must have been worth at least as much as the Waynes given what it affords - even back in the 70s they were buying multiple experimental supersonic jets.

Yes to Red Shift and all the rest of the unmade heralds! Including Tyrant.

It didn't work in his favor, with me anyway - I'm a good tipper after years working in bars and restaurants, but not for those kinds of shenanigans!

I think I still have that old TB Thorbuster, though I got rid of Destroyer years ago. I think I always assumed that Destroyer got undersized to accommodate the smaller Thorbuster armor. But, it makes more sense that they should be the same size since it's based on Destroyer in the story. The art...

I paid in cash at a local place the other day and the guy just rounded my change off - in the house's favor. It was all of 35 cents, but I was surprised by the audacity.

I don't think I've ever seen that image before - one of the cooler shots of Thorbuster. Based on that he could definitely be made from Destroyer, right?
