Marvel Legends Comic Loki and Endgame War Machine plus Figuarts War Machine Mk 4.

Sweet! MkV War Machine looks almost like an SD figure there. So glad I broke down and ordered the SHF MkIV. Looks great there. And about time we got a classic Loki. Now I NEED MANGOG!!!

And after looking some more, Loki could use sculpted scales. Maybe in another 10 years, lol.

Fully variable? Sounds like a sweet kit. What scale is it?

I might have went a little overboard, lol. But between purchases and trades, it's been a great month so far!

That's one hell of a month you've had there!

1/100 fully transformable.

It is a recast off of the s.h.e. kit that was put out a while ago.

Yeah, the proportions on the Legends War Machine here are really... weird.  It's okay but a bit cartoony.  I'm hoping Figuarts makes a proper version in the correct colors.  The MK IV WM is probably the second best looking one after the original IM2 version.  It's a good figure except it has weird leg movement.  The butt is literally a flat plate and makes posing a tad odd.

To be honest Loki never had protruding scales in the comics so the look is accurate.  The scales are painted really well.

I’m all about waiting for clearance but sometimes the easy way is....easy.

Glad I waited on any version of Capt Marvel too and actually ended up with the one I wanted most but didn’t think I’d ever get.

I'm bummed I couldn't get singles for Beta Ray Bill and Rescue from DorksideToys.  I'll have to wait for... whenever, for BBTS to get around to shipping.  They STILL haven't shipped Professor X.

Good point about Loki. Thanks for the info about WM, it's my favorite MCU WM design. I don't mind the leg articulation much, only really care about making a straight flight pose like when he strafed the Chitari in the movie.

I wouldn't worry about those too much. This wave just came out and they will be around for a long time. I was lucky to finally get Prof X from Amazon and they shipped it quick too.

I would like my Professor X though.  I've had a second headless Kingpin waiting for his Shadow King head since January.  And Prof has already come and gone at Target stores too.

I've been slowly building the Kingpin wave. Would like two for Shadow King as well but I went with the take my time and grab them on clearance strategy for that wave. Actually just scored a Night Thrasher for $15 shipped so I'm getting there.

2020? I got the message they extended for a full year from when you started instead of to the end of 2019. 

That’s correct.  I misread their email.  Mine should be until 2/2020.

I like it a LOT more than the 1/72 Calibre Wings I have that cost 10x as much. Even the stand is better! Great, now I definitely have to get some more of these and I totally get why your collection of them grew so fast.:lol:

wonder how much they are going to charge for the membership.

I think their membership is $50 so that’s how much you and I and anyone else who got the offer is saving at least until the end of this term.

Cheers just got one :) had a look on eBay double the price go figure

eBay gon ebay:D

But I checked some older releases and they all seem to go up after a while and sell out quick. But nothing like Bandai Macross sellouts and even at double the price, we are talking around $40 so it’s not breaking the bank.
