Her sculpt is a bit more cartoony than the others. I’ve noticed a lot of inconsistency in style among these figures. The original Last Ronins (Mike in armor, Mike topless) look like they’re from an entirely different line. The brothers (flashback and spirits) look like each other but not like...

Casey Marie came out really well. Her face is pretty despite the artwork and being bandaged. The two littles are fun, but the white one broke at the neck peg as I tested joints. Was able to replace the broken ball peg with a screw, so the neck works as it should. Gonna be a big weekend of...

Would buy Clay Quartermain because Jessica Jones dated him in Alias.

H&R Sunday, Lifeline Friday. Lob and NV still 2/26.

Stumbled on the Casey Marie figure with the babies at Target for 37.99. That’s lower than April with babies was. Needless to say I jumped on that because I’ve only seen POs at $60.

Missed it but thanks for the link!

The basic line drawing really sells it

They are only 4” tall…

I think that’s part of the downfall of the Muppets. No one has had a good enough idea to maintain any momentum for relevance. It was always Jim’s brainchild, and he was a genius we apparently did not deserve. No one will ever be as earnest, no one will ever match that sincerity, no one will ever...

This guy was born in the 1900s

I rarely pay attention to rumor/leak lists, so I tend to be surprised by what I see. But how often in the past have they announced things that were NOT on leak lists? Do they still have tricks up their sleeves that don't get prematurely exposed?

I can't imagine that NECA sculpts will look that different from what Palisades made. I think what I'm looking for is how they execute articulation. What kinds of extras these will come with, alternate heads/facial expressions, I hope. Maybe smaller Muppet pack ins like the vegetables or chickens...

If you didn't watch the original Muppet Show, you'll be missing a lot of the context. It was done pretty much in this exact same format; this is a faithful remake. Kermit was the "Lorne Michaels" of the original show, also sometimes appearing in the skits. It was also a show that ran a half hour...

Exiles Nocturne, for sure

I don't love much current pop music, but this format can serve as an introduction to what's out there these days. I've heard of Sabrina Carpenter, but don't know her music. I saw her perform on the Grammys. And she was cool enough to be a guest on the Muppet Show. So that alone helps me to...

I had Sneak Peek as a kid and he was the most boring, least favorite figure in my collection. I hope they skip him but I would reluctantly buy him because I had him.

Masque/Crossbones currently 38.05 on Amazon

Watched the new Muppet Show. It definitely evokes the same tone as the original, but I don’t think I’ll ever get used to someone other than Jim voicing Kermit. Whenever I hear it sounding wrong, it distracts me and makes me sad. Because it’s not just the voice, it’s the timing, it’s the spirit...

The ML7 Ghost Rider was a quality figure, but was he ever depicted in comics as completely skeletal? That figure was sculpted so lanky, like it was a skeleton wearing a leather outfit. Not the super-heroic proportions I tend to associate with Ghost Rider. I don't read GR comics, so I don't know...

Strangely, the one I want most from that bundle (Scale Tail, Wyrm, Antrax, and Usagi) is Usagi, because I actually had him as a kid. I have no attachment to the rest because they came out after I stopped collecting TMNT. They weren't figures in waves that were available when I was collecting...

But didn't Hasbro release a Johnny Blaze GR in the leather jump suit, in this blue color scheme, with the bike? The bike wasn't red, it was regular bike colors. I feel like that could be a grittier option.

This version is so comic book-y, I love it. I just ordered two from Pulse.

Same. I'd also like a single carded Serpentor. When they've released deluxe exclusives like Dr. Mindbender and Zartan as single carded figures, I swap the exclusive back into its original packaging and display the more common single. While I want to break out the air chariot, I don't have room...

I haven't opened Nemesis Enforcer or Pythona. Will probably wait til they make Golobulus and unleash Cobra-La as a whole.
