Welp. Looks like my big box of Joe goodies is delayed, but a single Mole Rat mk2 showed up today and I LOOOOOOOVE him! Even without the cool new head, the new paint and colors improves the original in every way. And the new head is BADASS. Really creepy. I was able to squeeze the radioactive...

I’m sure it comes from a tweet. It was a few years ago, I believe.

This is a thoughtful, excellent thread. One thing I would add is that JKR has said that she sees any buy-in or participation with the HP franchise as an endorsement of her views. I’m not saying you have to agree with her, but that *is* what she thinks. So if you participate in HP, JKR at least...

I’m so opposite on Absorbing Man! A clean, human Crusher is what I have always wanted, and this figure delivers in spades! I love him, totally my favorite reveal of the day.

Red Ninjas are definitely a Marvel Comics Hama thing, not really present in other media, so I get it. BUT the Red Ninjas are the specific henchmen of neon green Firefly, so . . .

Absolute banger reveals here. Absorbing Man and Daredevil are the definitive standouts, but they are all great.

YES YES YES I need an army of traditional Red Ninjas for Snake-Eyes to slice.

All I can say to that is “hell yeah”.

In Carl’s case: taking on weird-ass cases as an investigative reporter. In my case: lots and lots and LOTS of black leather and eyeliner. 😁

Oh man. Oh man oh man oh man. Are they gonna make Janos Skorzeny?!?!

Yep! I did a full neck swap with the white cop . . . I think. Might have been a greenshirt, I’d have to check, but I’m pretty sure it was the cop. But yes, totally doable.

Quinlan just showed up! Pining for Kyle and that perfect Dracula head—I mean, young Dooku.

This is AWESOME. Sigh. Not so awesome. That shitty little prick. HA! Speaking of shitty little pricks . . . 🤣

Yes! Tons of luck with that, indeed I do it all the time. I’ve even done Grunt peg swaps by heating the peg up and then digging it out of the glue with tweezers and a dental tool. A lot of headswaps require the whole peg to be swapped so the head doesn’t sit too high or low on the new body, and...

Yep. Most if not all Grunts have their neck peg glued in and it causes all kinds of problems. There was a similar but much worse problem with the Python Tele-Vipers: I had to replace every single neck peg of the five I got, they all immediately snapped in two with very little movement.

The Chemo wave was during my time ordering cases from cornerstore comics before they went under. I ordered every DC wave by the case from them, going back to the Signature Series. Not ashamed to admit that I used to actually drive to CSC’s warehouse to pick them up.

Yep.

I unironically want the SW Wasp costume. It was my first contact with Jan.

With all due respect to Magik, if they are gonna put a Secret Wars 2-adjacent character in the wave, I’d want it to be Circuit-Breaker. Magik can go with the many X-Men releases, and I will enthusiastically buy her. But come on! Give Circuit-Breaker a chance in the only place she’s likely to fit!

What they should do is give Sean another gambling-based code name to “match” Snake-Eyes (yes, the codename is based on “rolling snake-eyes” with dice, NOT a reference to an actual snake). I’m not interested in gambling, so I don’t really know what might be a good name though.

I love villains who are absolutely ridiculous but take themselves super-seriously. Killer Moth is my favorite example of this. Batman’s rogues specifically are generally severely mentally ill, and it wouldn’t make sense for them all to be like cool edgelord murder-clowns and hardcore disfigured...

Well . . . given the nature of Fred(s), extra heads would be good.

All three, especially the first two. We need a full set of the ‘Nam LRRP team.

It’s gonna be Dracula. Yeah. It is. I’m manifesting.

Man, I don’t like the “Throwdown” name, either. I mean: I get not wanting to give an Asian codename to a ginger white dude. OK. But man . . . I’m honestly not into Sean beyond being Snake-Eyes’ apprentice.
