    Got my order in at BBTS, this is The Batman for me. I was thinking maybe Hot Toys, but that price, even for the standard release, is pretty absurd. Even the price here seems a bit high for what you get, I definitely think all of The Batman merch has been overpriced just because.

    Damn, agreed, seeing Ewan back is fantastic! I thought Book of Boba would win me over easy enough but that just wasn't the case, Obi-Wan though? Yes please.

    That opening is a banger, I love it! Epic final season so far, I actually liked the ending to the manga so I'm hyped to see the anime wrap things up!

    Affleck Batman at least gave us the most Batmany fight in movie history, that fight scene from BvS was straight from a Batman Arkham game, it was fantastic. Agreed though, I'm pretty hyped for this movie, reviews are very positive overall, I love reading that this leans far more into the often forgotten, for movies at least, title of World's Greatest Detective, we haven't gotten much of that from most Batman films.

    Damn, I'm starting to get really hyped for this, Moon Knight has always been a favorite of mine, before the Disney+ show was announced I made sure to track down a solid CGC graded Moon Knight #1, one of my holy grails. Mr. Knight is happening, I figured he would, he should, there's a lot to this character.

    I'm probably in on The Batman, Damian Wayne Robin for sure. Turtles are enticing, but I've already got four sets of Turtles and really don't have room for another, both Joe ninjas look good, but I'm not big on the Joe franchise overall so they're a pass for me. Definitely more interested in updates on current figures on pre-order, I'm pessimistic on these new reveals, based on what's already on pre-order all this new stuff is years away.

    Agreed, that finale was awesome, honestly though, the whole season was pretty fantastic. I was weary about this whole show from the beginning, Peacemaker was fun enough in The Suicide Squad, but holding up a whole series? It worked. Cena nailed it. He's still not a great actor IMO, but he killed it in this roll, the whole season was a ton of fun, I'm glad HBO already greenlit season 2.

    Yup, I'm in for Figuarts Thor and Mighty Thor. Bandai needs to announce a pre-order for MK III Iron Patriot, then get on those Tobey and Andrew Spider-Men.

    I'm excited to check out Horizon Forbidden West on my PS4 Pro when I can, I'm only 15 hours into Dying Light 2 so I've got a ton to do there first, then I'm trying to do Last of Us Part II after that.

    So is this in the comic universe and not the TV show? I'm fine with that, I've read the whole comic series three times over, it's wild, the Hughie we saw in the trailer is very clearly the Simon Pegg-based comic Wee Hughie, Butcher as well.

    Just spent a few days in Disneyland and California Adventure, grabbed the new UCS Tumbler/Batmobile and Sonic sets from the Downtown Disney LEGO store, I'm excited to start the Tumbler! I got the vintage or whatever cab set as a free gift as well, pretty neat.

    I thought US had great performances, but the story was horribly stupid if you thought about it for more then five seconds. Get Out was fantastic though, I'm in, this looks pretty good.

    Letterkenny is one of my all time favorite comedies, I push Hulu on whoever I can for that show alone. Gotta hard disagree on the newest season, I felt it was back to form so to speak, last season was the boring one, the McMurrays weren't even in it! This latest season feels like early Letterkenny, better then ever, as good as it's ever been. I'm ready for Shoresy, give yer balls a tug.

    I'm having a lot of fun with Dying Light 2. I absolutely loved the first game, it was definitely one of the better hidden gem games of the last generation, I played it to 100% on the base game and DLC, loved it. My only gripe with Dying Light 2 is the available settings for Series X, only 1080p at 60fps, really? I expected 4K at 60fps, 1080p at 120fps, I thought the Xbox store even said 60fps+ in the game's description. I can deal, 60fps is still workable, and it's a quite stable, locked frame rate, I just expected more considering all the other games I've played on my Series X with better quality and performance modes.

    Everyone also needs to understand that this isn't a direct adaptation of the game's story, the showrunners stated the series takes place in its own universe, an alternate timeline. We'll get a Halo, there's Spartans and the UNSC, Covenant, but this won't follow the story of the game series, it's doing its own thing. I'm hyped, I've been playing Halo for two decades now, these games are still my all time favorite FPS games. The story and characters are quite excellent, the tie-in novels have all been pretty great, some added to the lore and told new stories, some covered the events of the games in greater detail, either way there's plenty of content and story to pull from and tell. Looks pretty too, I'm bummed we never got that Neill Blomkamp Halo movie or series, he did the live action shorts and those were fantastic! Landfall still holds up today IMO. Halo has certainly borrowed a lot over the years, it's tropey, but at this point it's also set standards for gaming and storytelling, world-building, lore, it's a fantastic series and I'm glad some kind of live action content is finally happening.

    I've never played a Crysis, are the games even any good? I've never heard anyone actually talk about or mention the gameplay, or if the games are even fun, every discussion about this game is just about graphics and if you can or can't run it. I may check it out on my Series X, I don't know, these games always looked insanely good, but horribly generic, you're just another super-suit wearing super-soldier doing FPS stuff in tropic locales, that's just not that interesting. In other news Dying Light 2 is almost here, and I'm hyped, it seems Microsoft confirmed 60fps+ for those that have a Series X and a compatible TV.

    XL Roci is up at BBTS, I grabbed one there. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/193407

    Agreed, Cena is killing it in this roll. He's still not the greatest actor, but this is clearly a roll made for him. I've seen one or two of his garbage "Marine" movies, the serious action stuff just doesn't work, he doesn't pull it off, but this? He's fantastic in this roll, me and my buddy are already planning to go as Peacemaker and Vigilante for Halloween this year, like many others I'm sure.

    So I guess it's official Slave I is being phased out? Boba referred to his ship as Firespray right? That's like Han calling the Falcon "Corellian Light Freighter", Not the biggest deal with this show though, I'm entertained but it's beyond middling, and really dumb at times, Boba comes off as a bit of an idiot most of the time. I still really don't think his revival and this entire show are justified yet, I feel The Mandalorian already used up a lot of what could've made up the story of this show, a mostly helmeted, lightly speaking badass in Mando armor, making his way in the galaxy like his father before him...

    Damn I'm in for an XL Roci, the only Eaglemoss ship I have is the XL Orville and it's pretty nice. Once BBTS puts it up I'll grab one there, add it to my Pile of Loot.

    Yeah that seems the gist, it's still cool to "bag" on Xbox and Microsoft for whatever reason, I know Sony has bought more small studios that already made games for them like you mentioned, but I have a strong feeling most "gamers' complaining about this would be head over heels if Sony made this same purchase. It's really odd to me how for so many people Sony was apparently the "good guy", for the gamers, they're not and never were, they're a business like anyone else and just want your money just like everyone else. I say good for Microsoft, as you mentioned their weakness has always been a lack of exclusives, seems a moot point now. For me, as someone subscribed to GamePass, I'm pretty ecstatic, that awesome service will get better, it was already announced a number of CoD and other big name titles are coming to GamePass, Diablo IV on GamePass day one will be pretty great. Let's be real here, if Microsoft wasn't going to make this purchase, someone else was, I say it's better that it's Microsoft then, say, EA or Tencent.

    Yup that's what it is, looks like a tank-top, like a mascot wearing a Sonic costume instead of being Sonic himself. It's a bit odd, your Photoshopped version looks better even if it's not "correct", the flesh colored arms are sort of horrifying.

    Got my Sonic set in, pretty neat little set, it's got a lot of charm, I like it. The Sonic minifig is a bit odd looking, but is still probably the best way to do that character in a set like this.

    Yeah I really enjoyed The Expanse beginning to end, just a fantastic sci-fi series through and through, I push it on everyone I can, it was an incredible ride. I liked the finale, bit of a bummer though, it's clear without knowledge of the books that there is more story, there was even a throwaway line about the missing proto-molecule, and that whole side-story about the "dog" creatures was a somewhat cruel taste of what we won't get to follow up on. I also added a one week trial of Showtime to my Hulu so I could catch Dexter's final season, not bad, a better finale then the first time, but still not perfect. That's not even what I loved and binged while I had Showtime, I got through Dexter's last season in about five days, took my time, I binged another Showtime original, which I highly, highly, highly recommend, Yellowjackets. Hot damn is that show fantastic, I've read some of the reviews and posts about, figured since I had Showtime I might as well check it out, very glad I did, I watched the whole season in two days! Yellowjackets may be my favorite new series of 2021, it was really, really good, highly recommended, if you have Hulu you can add a one week Showtime trial for free, do it, check out Yellowjackets. It's already been renewed for another season, not surprising, it's really good, it's Lord of the Flies but with a girl's highschool soccer team in the 90s, with a few supernatural elements thrown in here and there. It's got some great performances, it's just a bit slow at times, but pretty killer nonetheless. You get some flash forward bits in the flashbacks that show just how insane things got with the survivors, 19 months in the Canadian wilderness will lead anyone to do some crazy crap, it gets pretty intense.

    I know, I'm just pissy and want some progress on 89 Batman. Nosferatu looks cool, again, glad others got a second shot at this guy.
