[Fletch]

I bought the Dragonfly for Glenda and Rattler for Baroness and Weasel.

I've always said you were a dink, but mostly behind your back.

I always thought you preferred to use something a lil spicier.

I decided that paying $85 for Glenda on ebay was a better idea than dropping hundreds for a helicopter I neither want nor have room to display. The Despoiler is similar. If it hits clearance I'll get it for Destro and see if I can flip the vehicle for anything at all

 

[Alt]

I flipped them, was my hint.

Someone somewhere wants to fleet or mod those Despoilers.

For sure. I'm expecting we'll see photos from one of the people online who has a massive collection and Destro, Darklon and Mistress Armada will all have their own Despoiler. Oh and Baroness of course.

Wait.. they’ll each have their own Baroness? When did Dr Mindbender clone her, and how many did he make of her?

 

[Felonious Monk]

And how do I get one?

You nailed the sales pitch. His honey needs a ride.

 

[Alt]

And how do I get one?

Chat up angsty Eastern European women at universities.

Got my BBTS preorder arrival notice for Sundown! Honestly one of my most anticipated figures in a long time, just tons of rugged personality in this one. (Seeing a print of Sergio Corbucci's The Mercenary a couple weeks back didn't exactly do much to diminish my enthusiasm here, either. And he's actually Mexican instead of an Italian or Jack Palance pretending to be!)

 

[Hi-Fi]

If any of you do feel twitchy on the Despoiler. Just remember I bought the Dragonfly for Glenda and Rattler for Baroness and Weasel.

As someone who's toying with the notion of getting the Dragonfly and Rattler for the exact.same.reasons, may I ask if you regret it?

 

[AceofKnaves]

I’ve bought all the HasLabs and MTOs *primarily* for the figures and have zero regrets! I still haven’t set up my Dragonfly, my Rattlers and one of my HISSes, and I’m OK with that.

Amazon moved shipping for the new wave up to tomorrow, and of course this is the wave I ordered through Pulse because I was on the road and Amazon was making it hard to find the links for the wave in that ten minute window I had to order. But Pulse has my order locked in so I'm hoping that means they're just boxing shit up to ship any day now. I'm really looking forward to these four figures.

 

[NORM]

I checked the listing for Airtight, and it says that it has free delivery for July 7 AND that it will be released June 23. I have it preordered and it still says July. I’m not holding my breath.

Vala brought up Dusty as another example of Hasbro's crazy gouging. I hadn't thought much about it but he mentioned the coyote is constructed of various parts from the dogs and wolf, which explains why the legs look so ridiculous.

This was my big issue with the coyote - it doesn't have all the angular-ness of what I think when I think coyote. It should read more fox than hound. The mid-torso joint also doesn't look great. But hearing this that makes more sense why the sculpt feels so off.
