    JADA TOYS General Thread

    AND import style joints! At least on the elbows. Man they really saw what Storm Arena was making and said, we can do it too!!

    Jada Toys Scooby Doo

    Scoob's face looks real weird here, they need to improve that before release. And of course, those joints could work if they're tight, else Scoob will be laying in shambles! I too agree it's a strange choice for the villain, there's so many cooler designs in the series for them to waste a spot...

    Jada Toys Invincible

    So yeah, it was Invincible. Not a fan of the show myself, I wished it would be Castlevania or something like that, but oh well. Most people will be happy.

    Third Party Figures

    Well, the Miniwork Aragorn has been released. The likeness is pretty great, at least in terms of the sculpt: But the paint is pretty basic looking, specially when compared to the original prototype. The head is kinda big for the body, and the body overall looks pretty stumpy. The clothes look...

    My hypothetical McFarlane Multiverse continuation.

    I'm pretty sure most of Mattel's output will be essentially what Spin Master has been doing - kid's stuff, roleplay items, etc. But I'm sure they'll make a Marvel Legends type line for "collectors" as well, but in reality, it'll be for ages 4+ just like hasbro. And with that comes a set of...

    Third Party Figures

    As far as I know, Gundamit and 5ktoys are pretty trust worthy, but this is all from what I've heard other people say, I haven't bought anything there yet.

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    What wave does this align to? They usually do two waves a year, don't they? Haven't we had one already? or maybe I'm misremembering things.

    Ghostbusters General Thread

    Honestly, if these were $25, I would say, "Go nuts!". But at $101, I'm not even sure if I'll complete the team. Maybe they're already talking about when hasbro's license stops, so they can lower the price?

    S.H. FIGUARTS General Thread

    Never seen it but the red-suit girl looks fun. Tons of expressive faceplates. They just fully revealed the new Harry Potter figures. I have to say, I have been waiting almost 20 years for a good figure of that Triwizard Harry. Apart from the glasses being molded to his face, he looks great. The...

    Storm Collectibles

    I don't really remember a time this was happening. I mean sometimes a few releases line up nicely, a marvel legends alongside a mafex or something. Or, you know, lego and such. But two action figure lines, doing the same brand, same characters, same scale, same price? Not really. There's usually...

    Mattel DC Figures

    There's not a lot of figures I would want from Mattel, but the ones I do want, I want them done good. I want good superhero proportions, good anatomy, great facesculpts and great face prints. I want real good, modern articulation. Jada style or better; toe articulation, barbell ab joint and...

    S.H. FIGUARTS General Thread

    Just wanted to discuss the upcoming release of the Lord of the Rings SHF figures and didn't see where. Didn't want to be insensitive to the Diamond situation so I didn't want to just talk about this in that thread. There's new photos of the upcoming Aragorn, thanks to IsaacWongToys, and...

    Star Wars Black Series

    The price is honestly insane (I mean, 2 $25 figures plus a base = $109?!?)... but somehow I still really want it. We know that the single releases won't get all those sweet extra accessories like the extra heads, the lightsaber effects, or maybe even the extra force hands, and that's without...

    Star Wars Black Series

    Well their recent Darth Maul had them ballpeg wrists and he has decent range all around. He can't point the sword forward though, so these may not be able to do that either. But apart from that, the ballpeg really does allow for better range. I really liked these, but there's some problems...

    Figma Video Game Figures

    Yeah they did a strange articulation design on this one. An ab-crunch, with this armor design? The elbows could have been more filled-in, too. And I'm pretty sure he's gonna have a hard time holding his sword with two hands. But the accessories really make this figure. 4 swords, the potion, igni...

    Ghostbusters General Thread

    I honestly wish Neca or SH Figuarts did movie figures. No one's really given us highly detailed, well articulated, accurate GBs with good likenesses in 1/12. I personally think the hasbro busters are the most decently accurate for the price, but still, the soft sculpts and non-accurate proton...

    Diamond Select Toys is Shutting Down

    I really wonder why DST was in financial troubles in the first place. Were the figures not selling well enough, or did they invest too much in molds or production, or what? It's all quite a shame.

    Frazetta Girls ICON figures

    He looks really good and I do want it, but I also kinda want the upcoming Titan Comics Conan. If they can manage to make him as good as what they've shown, man it's gonna look so savage. And of course the mythic legions barbarian looks so good. Either way we're eating good with Conan this year!

    Star Wars Black Series

    Yeah hasbro's really doing some good work here. They've improved engineering, sculpts and faces so much in honestly quite a short time, and the results show it. Farmboy Luke can do some poses some sh figuarts Jedis can't. That's insane at this price point. Better plastics, better faceprint...

    What is your most recent deal, or "steal" on toys?

    Just got VC Mando for like $11 bucks, which is the price I feel like all vintage collection figures should be at. Also got spin master's Aloy for like $40, which is not really a deal but where I live, she's usually far more expensive so it feels like a win to me!

    Spinmaster Shapes Collection PlayStation Figures

    Just got Aloy for a decent price, finally. She's amazing. Her articulation just flows so nicely into poses. Her face plates add so much expression and variety to the figure, and the articulated hair, oh man. She's more expressive than pretty much any other figure in my collection. She really...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I really hate exclusives, of any kind. The 4H seem to relish the fact that they're making a really desirable figure like the valiant knight, the serpent men or not-Conan exclusive. Exclusives suck for all collectors, even the ones attending the cons. It seems pretty stupid, to me at least, to...

    Third Party Figures

    Funny that we now have two mini hot toys Aragorns coming: Both 1/12, both with soft goods that look great at least in promo pics, and both with not-very-good likeness to Viggo Mortensen. But the Hellcat figure has actual hair, which could be made to look more action-y and dirty. Both...
