    U.S. Politics

    This seems in some ways similar to the Paramount and Colbert situation. CBS sacrificed Colbert to get their sale approved. Maybe one of the best things to do is not watch/boycott ABC. I already don't. The last time I watched Kimmel was on the Man Show or Win Ben Stein's Money. We can also do...

    S.H.Figuarts General Anime (Dragon Ball, Naruto, MHA, etc.)

    A couple weeks ago in another thread, I mentioned I almost bought the Revoltech. Maybe I'll get this one if the US prices are reasonable.

    Blokees Transformers

    Blokees single packs (Roll Out 01) at $8.99 on their site are more than the local comic shop's $6.99. The blind boxes were selling briskly at my Walmart, but they stalled because they keep getting the same wave of Prime.

    The Pillman head is kind of funny because its socket is too big for the neck ball. It's like the times when you swap a random head onto another figure line's body. The head just rests on the neck and you say, "Good enough" 👍 There's almost no friction between the socket and ball 😆 I mean, it's...

    I won $10 on a OneSixthKit scratch-off card, good toward my next deposit or in stock order.

    Yes! I get to cancel my Walmart preorder! I'm waiting for the guy to clean/service my furnace, but had time for a quick morning trip to Walmart and Target. I might've bought all four figures (plus BAF) if toy buying hadn't been so busy for at least the last month.

    MAFEX DC Figures

    Thanks. I was so close to getting him out in time. Well, I knew the risk. Doubt Amiami is going to be in the mood to refund already paid orders.

    What a disaster. BBTS has Bane in-stock at $120 while mine is sitting at Amiami after paying $112 so far.

    I get not wanting to start over, but that was crazy talk back then. The new Monday Night War figures are in the area while my Brian Pillman preorder says November 14. I'm feeling too lazy to see if my store has any and will have to wait until tomorrow. I got Mariah May over the weekend too...

    @Damien on WFigs, Mattel gets accused of going by the "spreadsheet". Once the wrong is chosen, they continue to use the wrong part over and over again. I've seen custom Billy Gunns with either Sting or Road Warrior boots. They're not perfect, but more acceptable, so they have a decent...

    KO Star Wars

    Technically not a ko, but some thoughts on Play One Twelve Galactic Hunter (Boba Fett). There's several good things going on here, but there's a major flaw that was easily avoidable and if I were more discerning when looking at the pictures, I might not have bought this figure. His damn pant...

    Mattel did a decent job on Ultimate Tiffy's new torso articulation. It's range is not at the level of Jada or the new Wolverine, but certainly better than Classified females. Butterfly is surprisingly good front to back. I thought her anatomy might block her ability to touch her hands in the...

    Like all of us, 1/12 Boba Fett has issues. Sometimes HLJ will give mafex an origin of China and other times Japan. Sometimes the differences are on the same invoice.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    I thought they were going to apply a tariff of 15%, but HLJ must be going with the 30% that is applied to toys manufactured in China. When I get home from work, I have to see if I have any recent paperwork that's attached to the outside of HLJ boxes. I wonder if it indicates the figures were...

    I'm in my car at Target waiting for my peeps to come out. I'm at the very same Target from yesterday when I bought Monkeywrench and armored Cobra Commander. This time I have Major Bludd. I hate when my store doesn't put out the full case at one time. Second wave in a row I planned not to buy all...

    Lol, he opened his video saying he expected to lose subscribers and I obliged. I couldn't help myself and had to read his replies to comments. He's one of those types that thinks only the lazy will be affected by the health coverage changes in the bill. Personally, I think you should have health...

    @altcunningham My DHL packages arrive at an airport about 50 minutes. Doesn't sound like it's worth the time or money saved. @EnigmaticClarity I think the $39 from Hobby Genki is in addition to the shipping. That's about what I came up with when I added Mafex Hush at HLJ. He's 8800 yen. Their...

    Age of Primes

    The local FB group posted a pic of G2 Grimlock and Megatronus on clearance for $30. I was just at Target before seeing the post, but didn't notice those two. I know they had them recently.

    I just left Target with Cobra Commander and Monkeywrench. I canceled my preorders for the last and this wave, but ended up buying them later at my local Target. They had CC x2, SE x2, and MW. I had SE from Amazon and yesterday I almost bought MW for a Sunday delivery. I came out one day ahead on...

    I read comments you can avoid the fees by "self clearing". I think that was the term they used. So, that's not something you can do online? Give us $22.50 for that Mafex you bought nine months ago and these twins are your kids, please take them with you. One of the guys on ACBA from last...
