If Mattel does move back to a 6-inch line, I admit it’s going to have to be pretty good to make me dive in. I’m still so happy with the DCUC overall that they’re going to be tough to beat. And I don’t exactly relish the thought of starting all over again for as deep into the DCU as we got. But I...

Big ol’ pass. Not interested.

Awesome. So pumped to finally get him on the shelf.

We must be in the same general vicinity then. Tyrone-State College are my stomping grounds.

Yes to classic Handbook Sin-Eater.

LOVE the Imperial Guard. Electron Tempest Oracle Starbolt Manta Titan (MTO?) Smasher Neutron Nightside Hussar Astra Magique Mentor Warstar (BaF) Impulse Earthquake Scintilla Shapeshifter There were also a number of Guardians from Quasar during Operation Galactic Storm I thought were cool...

Man, that brighter green is SUCH an improvement. I think I need one once they release it to the commoners.

Absolutely in for Rocket Racer. I prefer the slightly updated Handbook version (picture 6) but I’d take the early appearance version as well.

War of Kings is amazing. Not only is the writing top-notch, but Paul Pelletier’s art is always exquisite. Couple that with Gladiator having such a central role and I reread it quite often.

Yeah, mine arrived today as well and those two are SO nice. I’m thrilled to be able to replace the original versions on my shelf. Couple that with the Storm update (and useless Wolverine accessory that’ll get tossed in a storage bin she came with), and this was a good day for figures.

In for Jester in his 80s Handbook look (pictures 2 & 3).

I’d happily take Jack as either an MTO item or a Deluxe like Beta Ray Bill has to be. If selling them at that price point is necessary to get them, as long as they’re honest with us about it then I’m okay with it. I’m not happy about it, but I understand it. Heck, throw Jack in with Captain...

Fully in for classic Handbook look, and I insist on black weapons, especially skis.

Just pre-ordered Black Bolt/Triton, and looking at its expected arrival date (1/2/26), there’s an UNREASONABLE amount of stuff all expected to ship on that date. Mini-comic wave 2, Executioner wave, Iceman, and likely it’ll end up being both Inhumans 2-packs. That’s EXTREMELY not cool. 😡

Received Dragon Man yesterday. He’s quite the blunt force object. Lordy.

That’s the 2-pack I’m most excited about. It needs to get in my hands YESTERDAY!

Both Scott/Jean and Ororo/Logan 2-packs are on their way to me. And I believe the Black Bolt/Triton set goes up for pre-order tomorrow.

Agreed. If they’re saying it’ll take a Deluxe pricepoint to get Bill done, then he better be a friggin’ work of art.

I like Devil Dinosaur & Moon Boy, but I don’t feel a burning need to have them. Plus, I wouldn’t have the space to display a Rex of appropriate size either.

Impatience, to be frank. Ideally I’d much rather order from BBTS and support them as I have in years gone by. But I admit the anticipation gets to me, and if Amazon gets and ships them first, and gets them to me in two days no less, well, guilty. Plus, Prime member so shipping is free for me.

I have a text document that has the ship dates, item names, and prices on them, and it’s sorted by where I have them pre-ordered. So, one step away from using actual excel I guess. 🤣

In all fairness to the team, with the possible exception of the head (minus the wings) and the arms and maybe hands, a Simonson Beta Ray Bill would require all-new tooling over the remainder of his body. There’s a lot of details on his boots, leg armor, and torso and belt that don’t match...

Well, bear in mind that those guys have boners for X- and Spider-related stuff. The rest of the MU doesn’t get that kind of grace as a general rule it seems.

Black Bolt/Triton -10/16 Medusa/Gorgon - 10/21

Good riddance to HasLabs as far as I’m concerned. This size an offering (or the Sentinel size) at this price is more than good enough for me. No added stress or figures locked behind paywalls. Hope they try a team set as well. Might be the only way to get some of the apparently...
