Movie Realization First Order Storm Trooper, Figuarts Boba Fett, Figuarts PS4 Spider-Man.  I was excited about spidey after how great the FFH one was but the shoulder design here is limited and terrible.

 Nice! I can’t wait to get Boba!

i saw there were some reviews and other posters who had Spideys with locked shoulder joints. Mine don’t.

People who have the issue were able to loosen theirs by heating it up.

I don’t have locked joints.  The up-down clearance is terrible.

Yeah.  Everything that scales well together is.

I was referring to how their both fighters and SO much different in size. In WWII they were putting "kids" in fighters and sending them over a zillion at time. Meanwhile in more modern times you need to be a genius, disciplined AND a little bit crazy or they won't let you near one.

This is the first HMR I have transformed or really fiddled with. I took a VF-4 out of the box, put it on a stand, and stuck it in the cabinet before this one. But I didn't fiddle with it. I'll be honest. When I first started to mess with it I was thinking even at $125 I over-paid. By the time I was done I didn't think that anymore. Pretty cool little toy.

For the size & scale of these, there pretty damn cool. 

What I love about the HMR Liner is the possibilities of what can be made, Bandai already pulled off the 2SS & VF-4, so I say bring on Mac Plus & Mac Zero!!

Yeah, these guys are growing on me. They sure don't take up much space! I can absolutely see how people can get sucked into have a zillion of these!

And yes, there are some Valks I got in HMR that I probably wouldn't have in a larger scale. Like the 2SS. That is in part because the 1/60 isn't exactly nice.

I would absolutely buy Plus and Zero HMR's. I wish I was around when the Destroids were released. And that they did a Tomahawk (I think that's right). I'd like to have a ton of them around the Monster. But I'm not dropping $1000 on Destroids especially if they're not fully represented.

Just broke this guy out. I need to get the 1/60 and 1/48 out too. But I'm getting hungry.

 

I fixed the angle of his head after I saw the pic on my monitor.:D

Dang, that Predator is just the freakin business @sqidd!  Nice pics of the HMR's, glad you're liking them! 

 

I saw this guy and had to have it! They're really not too expensive used. And you really can't hurt the thing. I can't remember what I picked it up for (I could look it up I suppose), it was super reasonable. If Bandai made it we would have to hope we could get it at 3:00am, miss our chance, then pay $600 for it!:D

I just looked it up. I got him for $124.

It's a NECA Jungle Predator 1/4 scale. Here is one for $150
