    Star Wars Black Series

    Word. After seeing this two-pack I feel like they could do standard Revan and HK, and then light side Revan and one of the alt HK units you fight. I'm not trying to justify them getting over $100 from me... but it would work.

    Star Wars Black Series

    Fuck me sideways that was on my "they'll never give me this" list. Instant preorder. Fuck yeah. I sold my Nihilus almost a year ago now and lately I'd been missing him but kept thinking "no, he can't stand right" and it bothered me so much. Traya, incredible. And they gave her floaty saber...

    I'm closer to your end of the spectrum. I'm sitting a 155 and it feels like I can't go much further. If all my preorders come in I'm looking at 169. And yeah, makes me feel a bit weird. Whenever I look at the numbers I have a panicked urge to sell off stuff.

    Mattel Jurassic Park Lines

    I wonder if the dimensions listed are correct, because they say it's nearly 30" long and 9" high which is HEFTY. A really imposing size in general but also would fit well into a 6" display (my main interest in these). At that size it feels more like a bargain. I'll keep an eye out for it, but if...

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    That's heartbreaking, and I'm so sorry to hear it. It sucks when you get to that time you know you've just got to let them go, but it's a gut shot every time.

    100% here for a critters and monsters pack.

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    My boss is good, it's more that I know if I took a long period off I'd have to really carefully plan the when of it all. We're in a complicated time right now with budget issues (another thing I can partially thank our supreme leader for), so me dipping out for a few weeks would largely make...

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    This seems like the thread for this thought, but a feeling I've been having a lot lately is the want to take time off of work to just enjoy my hobbies more. Like, there are figures I'm still buying, but I keep thinking "man I'd like a week to just sit and have fun with these". Not just figures...

    Roboskull MKII/Skeletron

    Keep on top of when they start delivering, but as others have said there will be some in stock. Everything from the 6" line including the roboskull and accessory kits are still available in the shop so I don't think they'll be running out right away. https://skeletron.com/collections/everything

    I somewhat wonder if he won't be a solo figure. Spybot is surprisingly big in context with Maul. But yeah, I want that maniac droid. Instant fave.

    Assuming this is the uniform with the star on it... I kinda dig that look actually. I still want an Iron Grenadier Baroness, but this would be kinds cool.

    Roboskull MKII/Skeletron

    They're being very coy about a 1/12 version on their socials as a lot of folks are asking. I think we'll get one before too long.

    Third Party Figures

    Well the Eliminator/smasher isn't supposed to be a bug. He's part of the faction fighting the bugs, same as the dog and the upcoming skinny Kamen Rider looking guy. Eliminator is doing it's best Jin-Roh impression.

    Third Party Figures

    The mantis Sexy Ice did was more bug colored, that pale white orchid mantis look. I do like the gunmetal personally, but I think these guys would look really awesome and extra gross with more traditional bug colors. I just know they'll give us a roaches eventually and it'll be pure nightmare...

    Third Party Figures

    Went ahead and dropped a down payment for the Sexy Ice 2019 Ant. Everything that's come out for this series looks rad and the reviews have been good. I'm still kicking myself for not picking up the Eliminator and I still hope they swing back around for a rerelase. I've got one of the dogs on...

    General Marvel Legends

    Yeah I just noticed that myself. I'm passing on this one, but it's neat in an abstract way. It does feel like we've gone suddenly shallow on preorders, but maybe that's just gearing up for con season. I'd like to go ahead and lock in Onslaught and see if they've got anything good coming for...

    So big some people can't take it. Couldn't be me. Skill issue. I'm built different.

    I'm feeling the opposite way. The size is big, but it works for me. Now, I have no idea where I'll put the fucking thing, but this is one of the few Joes that I'm just not going to pass up. I loved that toy as a kid and this is a great update.

    Right? I at least want the incubator because I'm pretty sure the scale will work for a 1/12 display. Hoping I can find it on ebay once they drop. I don't want to blind-box my way to one.

    They did say he has some "gross" face printing. I think there's a good chance you'll get your wish.

    I keep misreading it as shit-less Wolverine and I'm like "of course we're making this a variant, Wolverine is always losing his shit".

    I'll be honest, I had no idea that's how T'Jbang was pronounced until this stream.
