    The Relationship Overshare Thread

    Right? I couldn't have gotten laid in junior high if I paid someone. 😅 I'm definitely a validation person as well, but that's something I'm working through in therapy. I overcompensate in meeting new people and can definitely come off a bit strong, but it's really just my nerves talking. On...

    1/12 Diorama/Terrain/Props/Vehicles

    Damn. That really is eye-opening to see. Glad someone took one for the team and showed off how unwieldy it would be. As well-intentioned as they are, I also think the people saying they'd be fine if it only fit one or two figures are also stretching the truth a bit. We all wanna fit the full...

    Agreed. Don't even know if they could if they wanted to. They supposedly tried to make Pfeiffer Catwoman a couple times, but (supposedly) the cost of likeness rights kept getting in the way. Bigger companies with more overhead, more people to please, etc. don't seem to have the freedom that Todd...

    I did. Followed ToyShiz's link, but from what I've gathered, it was a stroke of stupidly good luck. Seems like I may have loaded the page right when it went up, and because I was already logged in and auto-filled, I sped through checkout. But mere seconds after my order went through, the page...

    Man, what a clusterfuck. It seems the Toy Gods took a day off. As much as I try not to complain and give Todd the benefit of the doubt, he does pretty consistently prove me wrong (or right, I suppose). He's made some good figures, but I'll still be pretty thankful when Mattel gets the license...

    Finally had some luck with the Returns figures. Kept an eye on the ToyShiz links; the bundle popped up first on MTS, and I didn't feel like waiting for the others, so I went ahead and snagged it. Right about the time the order went through, Max popped up on GameStop, and I snagged him and...

    Think I've decided against the Duckmobile, but I may try and snag that Penguin loose somewhere. If anyone wants the duck but not the driver, let me know. And as always, may the toy gods be in your favor today!

    U.S. Politics

    Ah, yes, because if there's one thing I want to see the President doing, it's operating a giant turret. As if he'd even know how to use the thing, with those tiny little hands of his. Also, why is he caressing the gun? Ah, nevermind- it writes itself. You didn't know the Statue of Liberty was...

    U.S. Politics

    I don't know how I missed the giant golden Trump statue with the Bitcoin that was installed in DC. It is real, right? Like...it looks fake, but it also looks real. I hate how I genuinely can't tell anymore. Feel like I'm taking crazy pills. But I also don't know if I want it to be real or not. I...

    The Suicide Squad crowdfund is definitely an interesting choice, and one I'm not entirely sure I see being as successful as the Batmobile. With that, at least you had the boost of the Snyder fanboys. We've already got 2 Margot Harleys, and granted, this may be her most famous look, but it's also...

    Star Wars Black Series

    I agree- there's just something to collecting all the clones. All the little slight variations, the opportunities for customization with paint, posing, etc. to bring out individual character. I remember back when AOTC came out, and in my neck of the woods, you couldn't find the clone troopers to...

    U.S. Politics

    Exactly. I don't see anything getting even slightly resolved in our lifetime. At least in something like, say, the Civil War, the losing side at least tucked their tail between their legs and went back to their bubbles. Yeah, they weren't likely to really learn anything and grow, but at least...

    Amazon shipped me Anakin, the Sandtrooper, and..... my 2 Qimirs! Let's frickin' gooooooooooooooooo! Been waiting ages for this! My nipples could cut glass they're so excited! 🎉🥳

    U.S. Politics

    It's a tale as old as time, unfortunately- people who jump ship to the other side so as to seem like "one of the good ones", not realizing that, if it comes down to it, their "fearless leader" will do the exact same thing to them that they did to the others without a moment's hesitation. They're...

    X-Men '97

    Morph and Sunspot shipped from Amazon, with the rest still slated for early October, which I'm sure will change. But since Morph is probably my most wanted, I'm pretty happy he shipped first.

    I'd consider her more "3 howler monkeys in a human suit that somehow infiltrated politics", but that's basically the entire administration.

    Not only that, but Hell seems to have frozen over, and Tucker Carlson actually said something I agree with in calling out Trump/MAGA for using CK as an excuse to further their agenda. We need more folks on/near that side to call them out. Saw this photo online and it made me chuckle:

    The Story of Your Toys

    How did you get one of my home movies? Really though- when even your Princess Leia figure looks like a buff man in drag, you know you've got a bit of a masculinity problem. 😂

    Did today's drops really sell out that quickly? Tried Amazon and BBTS like 5 minutes ago, and they seem to be sold out everywhere. Not that I expect they'll be impossible to find in store, but I like the assurance I won't have to worry about finding them. Gotta have me that Scarecrow! Glad to...

    Category is: "Things You Don't Say To A Woman In Public" In all seriousness, though, that is a nice box. Just the right amount of white and red against the black. Oooh, la la.

    My Amazon order still says October 2nd, which I keep thinking is, like, months away, but it's only a couple weeks. Knowing Amazon, they could hit any day now, really. I'm excited for this wave and all the Black Series that are hitting on that day, but man, my wallet is in pre-mourning.

    The Relationship Overshare Thread

    Catching up on the thread because too much news right now makes my head and heart hurt. I'll spare ya'll another wall of text, but totally agreed with men being bastards. All the more confusing being gay, too- if I didn't like men so much, I'd hate them. 😅 The masculinity craze is something I'm...

    The Story of Your Toys

    Just so there's no possibility my only contribution to this thread is a major bummer, I was going through some old things today and was reminded of my old animated Hercules figure. That may very well be my earliest toy memory (there were others before then, obviously, but it's the first I...

    Star Wars Black Series

    Never say never, I suppose. Hasbro never turns down the chance to make money. Maybe they just want to let the "exclusivity" sit for a bit so fans who got it don't feel gypped. They may also need time to make more, and don't want to put it up for pre-order just yet. Unless they misspoke, and...
