Mangog is a long-time want of mine. I don't know how I'd fit him in my Marvel villains display, but that's a problem for tomorrow me.

I've got a few figures spilling over to the top of my display case. Does anyone have a suggestion on protecting them from dust? I'd like to throw a clear plastic "box" over the top of them. I'm not opposed to leaving them out in the elements if I can't find a solution I like. I'd prefer that to...

The early Metal Gear games came around before I got into gaming, but I think this qualifies as a hot take. The Resident Evil 2 remake is so good. As someone who never played the original, the remake made me appreciate the game and the franchise. I beat Citizen Sleeper last weekend. It's a true...

Not sure I'm buying the Chiefs yet. Real concerns about Green Bay after tonight's draw. You get beat by a bad Browns team and don't follow it up with a demolition? It's not like Dallas is any good. The Lions have already retaken first in the North.

The president casually admits he can't tell fact from fiction. I'm new to this politics thing... when does the press step in and demand his resignation? https://www.kgw.com/article/news/local/trump-seems-to-back-off-portland-military-plan/283-e9c6bdfb-92d6-4881-bb74-09bb325a5270

I haven't noticed any dip. We should feel the full effects in a year or two.

It's such an odd line. I doubt this is the case, but it feels like Spider-Man was the only one they actually planned to release in this series. From the sounds of it, DP is a good (but not great) new sculpt with a ton of accessories thrown in, and Hulk is a fairly disappointing rerelease. They...

This is the key point. Over the summer, SCOTUS separated the Fed from other independent agencies because they didn't want Trump to crash the economy. He fired Fed Governor Lisa Cook anyway. A lower court reinstated her. Trump is appealing the decision to SCOTUS, the same court that said he...

If we're to get our country back, Stephen Miller and Pete Hegseth must spend the rest of their lives in prison.

I can guarantee it. We saw the same double standard at play with Trump 1.0, Biden, and now Trump 2.0. Republicans are the legitimate voice of the people and Democrats are illegitimate non-Americans. Biden wasn't even allowed to cancel student debt. I saw a Bluesky post the other day that said...

@AceofKnaves and I decided to split the Cap/Venom pack when it was announced, but then he went and pulled a fast one on me. And by that, I mean he sent me Venom gratis. I love sharing this space with you all because you prove the depth of your character in every post, trade, and anecdote. Ace...

I won't talk about how much I'd pay for a good Magik in a costume I like. How many of us would spend big bucks on Magik, though? The same could be said for Baron Blood, Two-Gun Kid, or anyone else mentioned in this thread. Hasbro could use the made-to-order model for everything if it had a big...

I've got these Coaster curio cabinets now: The dust is minimal, even without weather stripping. I might dust once or twice a year.

I'm honestly not sure where to start with this. I guess today is as good a place as any. Today they ruled that Congress does not have the power of the purse. The thing we were taught in grade school. The last 12 months of decisions have been about consolidating power behind the executive...

I flit back and forth between "it's over" and "it's not." Today was an "it's over" day. SCOTUS isn't even pretending anymore. This is Constitution 101 shit. If they won't rule against Trump here, what hope do we have? They'll nullify California's partisan redistricting and okay the same...

I should clarify that it's not the head sculpt or style that I dislike, it's the expression. I don't want to display any figure with their mouth ajar like that.

Great design. Too Satanic for Hasbro?

I've been on my Samir tirade before. My figure is relatively stripped down because it wasn't worth the frustration. Same with Arrizak. The belts are too small to wrap around the soft goods pieces. It feels like the figures themselves weren't balanced for the weight of the soft goods, either...

I was strongly in favor of it when Trump took office in January. I've since cooled. I think the next two elections as America's last chance. I would hate to see blue states bail and leave all my friends in red/purple states high and dry.

Because the Panthers suck, I always wind up rooting for the Bills in January. I'm drawn to tortured fanbases and I really like Josh Allen. I have serious concerns about their ability to win the Super Bowl. The AFC is undoubtedly stronger than the NFC, but the best teams in the league might be...

Blue states need to threaten secession soon.

I opened my brown-costume Wolverine reissue today. This was definitely a "grail" figure for me. I don't have many grails because I tend to pre-order anything I might want and cancel later. I actually did so with the original brown Wolverine and regretted it for years. I'm a bit bummed by...

I opened Otho today. *sigh* This is my seventh 4H figure. I have the Graveyard four-pack, Samir Scrollwarder, Arrizak, and now Otho. I don't know what to make of this line. I think the skeletons are the best of the bunch. I hate the two wizards. Otho, by default, is somewhere in between. For...

I almost mentioned the Green Bay loss. That one at least makes sense to me. They should've put the game away before the Browns came back. Cleveland's defense is really good. Is Sam Darnold good now? It's tragically funny that the Panthers let Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield go, and both turned...

We shouldn't take pleasure in the president exacting vengeance on any of his political foes, but I'm going to make an exception for James Comey. He was instrumental in Trump's win in 2016, to the extent that I don't think it would've happened without him. Just this once, I'm going to be a Bad...
