This is one I really feel like they should put out. Most def.

No, it's mostly the parents. When I was working int he dorms I met loads of good kids, and then some others. Some of the good kids had good parents, some were good in spite of shitty parents. Most of the shitty kids had shitty parents. Stephen Miller is my age. And there are plenty of...

Me too! A university library and the admin and some librarians here talk about AI like they just fell off the turnip truck. It's bananas. Look, I know it's bad to strike a child... I just... if we're supposed to not gain anything from robots and such why fucking bother? We can go back to...

Yeah, it's a sort of rendition of a specific version of Nimrod that only pops up for like 2 issues. It is a cool look though. Nimrod's fun, but now he's in hotrod red! I have no idea if this is what the missiles are actually teasing, but whatever it is it can't be too obvious or folks would have...

For reasons too silly to go into I'm on the AI steering committee at the library where I work and it is SUCH a lousy tool and it's wild to me that everyone keeps talking in breathless tones about how it's 'going to change everything'. The BEST apps people have shown as part of our steering...

And I bet by loaded we're still talking 7-8 figures. Hell, even 100mil, compared to these folks, is poor.

A while. Weeks if not months. I eventually sold off the HYDRA ladies I bought because I don't really have any HYDRA in my collection and they felt lonely without any other baddies to pal around with, but I kept the SHIELD ladies. Sadly I think they are probably why we won't get women versions of...

The most stark example of this sort of thinking is in the court filings for the Titan sub. That guy was so high on his own supply it was absurd. I really do think that a certain amount of wealth is basically brain damage. Your interaction with reality becomes so warped that you not only don't...

In a relative sense, I mean. The amount of specificity needed to put them into a design with tight tolerances and such. I also think the quality they're using is a little higher than what you might expect on cheaper kid's toys. I think they'll continue to do it for haslabs when appropriate and...

I don't think that's the case. Quite a few Haslabs have them. Sentinel, Galactus, all the Joe ones, Engine of Vengeance, Ecto-1... probably some others I'm forgetting (surely some transformers ones had them, and probably some of the Vintage Collection too). It's that sophisticated compact...

The only part of aging that I've liked is I have a little grey patch/streak in my hair that is *exactly* the kind of bullshit a 90's era mutant would have and let me tell you if I discover I've got secret mind powers there's gonna be some people in a million pieces the very next day. I will...

Ok, saw somewhere someone mention this, and given we've had a Nimrod rumor on the leak list this seems plausible since they'd no doubt do some heavy modification to the design. It would be a weird choice, but not the weirdest. Technically this is a nod to the Military Nimrod from the X-Force...

Here's hoping it passes for both of us sooner rather than later.

I totally forgot that tease. Prevailing wisdom on the bag is Spider-Man 2 Oc yeah? Did we ever get a good guess on the gold?

I feel like I've gotten to the point where even the schadenfreude isn't doing it for me anymore. At this point I'm just largely keeping my head down and trying to only open the pain box (any news feed) once a day. Even that's probably too much. I've been tanking through so much personal stress...

Dreadnaughts would be fun. Probably a deluxe or BAF though. If we're going that route a proper Mandroid in classic yellow would also work. Those suits made it into everyone's arsenal eventually.

I'd go for a revamp of the original SHIELD, AIM, and HYDRA as well. Could also see some sort of generic Acolyte, a revamped Hand, some others I'm sure I'm forgetting. My guess is the Sentinels were the highest selling army builders in a while, given how quickly we're getting a recolor on those...

From what I've seen we'd already be in a recession if it weren't for something like 1/3 of our economy being a daily increasing bet on AI which has no path to getting a ROI. We'll be fortunate if all we have is a recession when that bubble pops.

A bit dull as designs go, but I might get one just for Deathbird to tear up.

Probably several, I just can't think of any with missiles that look like that. It's definitely for some sort of deluxe, made to order, or maximum release though, you can bet that's not some standard carded figure. A BAF *maybe*, but I doubt it.

I'd be down for that.

You're probably remembering the move where he fires off multiple smaller sentinels to hit you. It's quick and feels like a rocket attack.

I'd really appreciate updates to the old army builders. And some women in those groups too. HYDRA and SHIELD are currently the only equal opportunity employers. I love the idea of generic Reavers. That sounds amazing. I feel like that was asked and answered a while ago and it was just a fuckup.

I keep imagining a Beta Ray Bill with that kind of effort and hoo-boy yes please. That's the one I'm hoping they do. '97 Magneto is very close to my ideal, but he's just a smidge short. If they fix that and give him and unmasked head and some good effects (I kept expecting them to reuse the...

I was typing it right as you posted. The other thing too, 10yrs is more than enough time for conflicting initiatives to come down from Hasbro C-suite level. While this isn't a blanket get out of jail free card, that sort of thing definitely happens (and you can see it in technicolor places...
