Not sure if it's regional or not but Gamestop is still showing her in stock.

Took me until now to realize Lara doesn't come with her red shades. Not critical, obviously, she doesn't wear them in all depictions, but it is a look I associate with the character. Price is a little steep but expected.

The lack of sunglasses is no fun. I also wish she came with a second expression that actually looked different. That teeny smirk is TEENY.

Looking at the physical figure my worries about the render are confirmed - her neck and midriff look off. Her neck looks too short - maybe it's the necklace throwing off the neck length? Then either her midriff is too big, or her chest is too big - it might actually be that. The proportions just look off put together. She looks like the Disney+ ML She-Hulk figure which had the same issue.

Oh well - she's already sold out and no way am I paying that MSRP for a single figure or anything higher. This instant sellout is only going to encourage Hasbro to fleece us harder.

Also - where the heck is a new Baroness? That was my hope for an SDCC reveal, a retail version based off the HasLab.

Did anyone here mention Snow Job as a possible 40th Retro release?

Watching the Full Force and someone mentioned Snow Job getting a Retro release would be great and I forgot he both had screen time in the movie and was an exclusive release the first go round.

So 9 figures, at a minimum, could be released on 40th logo Retro cards. Here are some choices I think will be highly likely:

Jinx
Serpentor
Snow Job
Chuckles (movie colours)
Roadblock V2 (proper)
Arctic CC (gotta start using those Haslab Flint and Lady Jaye molds)
Cobra La Royal Guard

Then a couple of choices that I think might be possible:

Nemesis Immortal
Cobra La scientist CC
Pythona
Arctic Duke, Baroness, etc. etc. etc.

Relevant to that is they made sure the Arctic Bat was in the display yesterday.

Full Force

Jasis but I went to watch it and the goes on for 90 minutes?! Seriously, Chris, this could be a fucking email. I assume most of it is him scanning the comments and saying groundbreaking shit like "....yeah, that's a good one.... Hm, good point that.... uh huh....yeah!' and other things I don't need to waste my time witnessing. I just want to bullet points.

I feel icky about Chris doing the Full Force podcast where he leaks Classified stuff, talks about Joe toys, and all that.. while working for Boss Fight Studio. As I've said about Vala reviewing toys from other companies - at some point it just doesn't feel right. Also... almost everyone that has a podcast is a giant fucking windbag that just loves to hear themselves talk.
