    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I have a weird love for ice magic/mages that I can't really explain, but I've had a hankering to turn one of my skeletons into an ice skeleton by painting his bones light blue with a little white drybrushing. I bought some acrylic fabric dye in a nice light blue because I don't want the elbow...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    Resin is pretty durable. I've ordered a lot of resin accessories over the years and the only piece I've broken was the morning star from Uncle Jim. I was being careless and lost my grip and it flew across the room and onto the hardwood floor. I lost maybe a millimeter from one of the thin spike...

    Street Sharks

    When I started my current ad agency job last February, the copywriter on the team had done a ton of work for Mattel back in the 90s and apparently he named most of the ancillary Street Sharks characters. He said his nickname at Mattel was Namin' Klayman. He retired a couple months after I joined...

    This guy has a whole resin Soulslike kit for the 2.0 bodies, either painted or unpainted. I've ordered a bunch of pieces from him before and the print quality is top notch.

    I believe you and that really sucks. I guess I've just been lucky then.

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    Whenever I get new Legions figures, I usually want to swap out the weapons, hands, heads, or some other aspect of their armor so my first step is to soak them in hot water or hit them with a hair dryer if they have soft goods. I swap my parts and while the figure's still warm, I wiggle every...

    Four Horsemen X Mr. Beast Lab

    Very fair. I think it's an ugly toy design so I'm not trying to make a case for this being an automatic success. However, his Feastables have gotten universally terrible food reviews, but apparently kids can't get enough of them and his snack revenue has now surpassed his video advertising...

    Four Horsemen X Mr. Beast Lab

    I know toys are largely an adult market now and kids just want skins and other DLC for their video games, but the Horsemen aren't producing this figure. Mr. Beast is, and he has the financial backing to produce these at Hasbro scale and get them into retail stores. Do we know what the price for...

    Four Horsemen X Mr. Beast Lab

    I thought Mr. Beast's target audience was the under-18, raised-by-YouTube crowd.

    Four Horsemen X Mr. Beast Lab

    This design does nothing for me. Love the Horsemen, but at the end of the day, they're sculptors for hire and Mr. Beast has deep pockets. I don't have much knowledge or any strong feelings about Mr. Beast, but all of his barely edible foodstuffs I see in convenience stores sure make him seem...

    Nippon Adventures - D13 Toys

    Resident weeaboo checking in here. I'm less interested in generic samurai, ninjas, or ashigaru, but if these are specific characters like Goemon, Shoki the Demon Queller, or Oiwa, then you have my attention. I love yokai, but part of what makes them great is their variety, which I think this...

    I got my shipping notification today informing me know that my package had actually shipped a few days ago and will arrive tomorrow. I only ordered two skeletons and some belts so I think we should all be getting shipping notifications pretty soon.

    U.S. Politics

    As much as I want such a plan to work, a lot of reliably blue states (CA, NY, WA) have implemented impartial redistricting commissions for maximum enfranchisement, whereas more red states have left it to their legislators to pack and crack districts for maximum conservative rule. As has been...

    U.S. Politics

    This is my take, too. There are certainly plane records and correspondence, but if there were truly a list of who committed what crime and when, arrests would've already been made by either administration. Even if Trump's name was on such a list, he would've already redacted and released such a...

    The rest of the All Stars 6 wave finally arrived at the 4H warehouse and it sounds like the all-in sets have already shipped out, so those of us with smaller orders should see shipping emails soon.

    U.S. Politics

    I'm with @RicksNerdLife. It's been proven pretty clearly that no one else in the GOP can borrow or wield Trump's cult of personality. When he dies, the MAGA movement will be leaderless, fracture, and eventually recede. The Republican base won't follow Vance, DeSantis, or Trump Jr. with the same...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I remember the cyclops is Argemedes because of his real world eponym, and I remember a few of the early skeleton names because they're goofy puns like Tibius, Skapular, and Scaphoid, but I don't remember which name belongs to which skeleton.

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I also have no interest in a tabletop RPG from 4H, nor the knight figure, but I still love the Horsemen and Mythic and Cosmic Legions. Their customer service, communication, and transparency are all top notch. It might be a negligible distinction, but rather than "believing their own hype"...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I noticed the werewolf has the likeness of Vargg's face on his belt and the little bit of copy on the website says he escaped imprisonment (shackles, chains, muzzle). I hope this foreshadows a good vampire wave in the near future. I think the gnome has won me over so I'm not entirely passing on...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    My experience is that it's now out to a little over two years, so probably fall of '27. I'm tempted by the "tundra goblin" head on the gnome and I'd Say Yes to the Werewolf™ if I had room for another ogre-scale figure, but I already have three ogres so I think I'll ultimately pass on this wave.

    Action Force and Valaverse

    I don't collect any Joes or Valaverse, but I do collect Acid Rain World so I understand the appeal of military figures and building squads. But this... I just can't wrap my head around these designs or this business decision. What's the point? Who's this for? If I'm going to fill out a squad of...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    Beyithirr was the spring campaign and it does seem like the reveal schedule is a little different this year, although the only reveal that's fairly consistent is the big wave in November. We haven't seen a new Cosmic wave revealed yet and OxKrewe 2 was August of '24. Update: Looks like it was a...

    Acid Rain World: Novark

    I've been collecting their 1/18 figures for what has apparently been eight years already. I've sold a few just this year, but I still have 20 of them and a few vehicles in a diorama. If I weren't limited on space, I wouldn't hesitate to grab this one.
