ML Preorders and Fanstreams -

I was in the service during the Reagan years too! The first Presidential election I ever voted in was 1980 when Reagan ran against Carter. I was in Antarctica at the time. The next Presidential election was 84 and I was stationed in San Diego. That was much nicer.

I remember the Saratoga. That was a beautiful ship. I remember reading that she was in the Philadelphia shipyards for a time going through on hell of an overhaul. And then there was the hijacking incident with the MS Achille Lauro and the Palestinian terrorists. That must have been exciting.

Always nice to meet a fellow Veteran! Thank you again for everything!
SD, thanks and the same. I did my sea duty training in San Diego. Heh, possibly you were there when I was. Yeah, the MS Achille Lauro incident was no joke and how I received my MCEM. The Crossing the Line ceremony was interesting though and the Shellbacks on board the Saratoga made it messy for us Pollywogs. I've never low crawled through so much smelly and wet trash and left overs from breakfast and lunches. Still though I enjoyed it and would even do it all over again.
 

OK, just came home to this guy from Amazon and I am surprised how much I frickin’ love him. He feels like both DCUC and ML. If he had ankle pivots and a mid-torso joint he’d be perfect.
Such a random thread to post this, but man, if these had ankle joints, they’d be no brainers. As is? Easy skip. No ab articulation either? And a cut waist? Psshh

Looks good, mine won't be here till next week knowing how EE is with processing and shipping. I did grab Robin and cycle from Amazon and should be here tomorrow,

Whoops! Sorry— Wrong thread. Will re-post this in Mattel DC Figures. 😅 Added a comparison pic.

Yep, kids line so less articulation. The Collector line should be the same as the Chronicles line as everyone is thinking who has said anything about this line and Chronicles. There has been nothing concrete said by Mattel though.
 
Goddammit, Onslaught sold out already and I've barely woken up. So pissed. I had it in my cart and had to sign in, and of course it disappears...
 
I have the Onslaught BAF but I was planning on getting this one to keep on the card. Sucks when a preorder goes up and sells out during your morning commute.

I've seen most of the target exclusives in stores pretty abundantly, so may still pick him up if I spot him in the wild. No hurry though. Not really a big fan of Target these days anyway, due to some of their choices to stay "apolitical" that are obviously political.
 
Do you guys not have the BAF already? Or just really want the repaint?

I don't have the BAF. This was my shot at getting it for less than $100 or whatever folks on ebay are selling it for these days. I had an alarm for this morning at 9am too because that's when the last few Target prorders dropped (how I got Mystique and Storm).
