    I never bother with SDCC exclusives so I had no idea this was a thing, damn, third party/scalper prices are already through the roof. I sure hope NECA does the smart thing and releases these 7" releases separately, those things look damn good.

    Looks great! I do believe this trailer, for me at least, washed away my remaining memories of that really bad Amazon series that cast totally random nobodies as these characters.

    Spiderverse Miles looks good, it will probably be a safe release too, Mafex seems to make garbage for there live action film based stuff, for comics book movies at least, but there comic releases have been solid. Wish Dark Knight Returns Batman had a proper blue cape, I'm not too keen on the black cape. And agreed, that comic colored Spidey is a bit ugly, if I were inclined to get one I'd just track down the original release.

    I think Cavill could play a fantastic Superman if he had a better movie to be in, Man of Steel's failings weren't on him IMO, that was just a crappy Superman film that he got stuck in, we saw shades of a great Supes at the end of Justice League. Superman Returns was also a crappy Superman film with a great leading man, Kevin Rapey was okay as Lex, if pushed, I'd say Superman Returns > Man of Steel. But once again, both were crappy with wasted potential, so it's a bit of a lose-lose. Yeah the Shipp bait and switch sucked, I expected he would be a major player, not a cameo. Agreed on Invasion, a little fun, but bloated overall, and the Nazi crossover was fun, but there was NEVER going to be enough bad guys for the heroes, it was a handful of big baddies, and lots of cannon fodder Nazi soldiers, we didn't even get an evil Nazi Superman. And I love the Emerald Archer but C'mon, he's a human that's good with a bow, HE was the leader of the evil Nazi universe? https://wegotthiscovered.com/tv/robin-actor-burt-ward-feature-crisis-infinite-earths/ I'm excited for this year's crossover, it's shaping up nicely, looks like Burt Ward will play an older Robin too. Not to be mean, but he's a bit thick these days, so I doubt we'll see him suit up, but a cool addition nonetheless. I'm interested in seeing how Arrow ends, the show that started it all. When the first season was on, I NEVER imagined we'd be here now, a massive connected DC-CW universe that's quite popular and has no signs of slowing down, complete with meta-humans and powers, aliens, time travel, and all the other nonsense you'd expect from comic book stories. There have been ups and downs for sure, but I'm grateful for the years of entertainment overall.

    Grabbed my 4K Bluray copy on my way to work this morning, can't wait to get home and check it out later.

    Goku is almost there, Bandai just cheaped out and used the standard Son Goku black hair and painted it silver. The Ultra Instinct hair has slightly more flair and lift to it, the hair just isn't there, which for most Dragonball fans is quite important, these little changes make the difference between all the other forms. Eh, it's Dragonball, it's still shonen, you're either on board or you're not. If you watched Super you'd know Ultra Instinct wasn't just a hair color change, Goku's fighting style completely changed into something never before seen in Dragonball. His fighting style changed, mannerisms, attitude, etc., it was far more then a hair color change power up like Super Saiyan Blue.

    Jiren is up for PO on BBTS through Bluefin USA, nabbed mine, looks good. Such a shame the Ultra Instinct Goku looks lazy as all hell. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/97090 Ultra Instinct Goku is quite a massive disappointment IMO, the body looks fantastic, but the hair is the laziest crap I've seen from the Figuarts Dragonball line, Saiyan Raised on Earth Goku hair painted silver? Really Bandai? I read it was a prototype, obviously, and that it may change, but I'm highly doubtful. Will pass if so, that's too half ass for me to pay full money, I'd go Demoniacal Fit at that point.

    Looks pretty damn good to me, restored quite a bit of faith after all the leaked stuff had me worrying. I've only read Blood of Elves and Time of Contempt, but yeah, this looks good. Gotta drown out the complaints of it not looking enough like the games, this is based on the novels folks, the games took place LONG after the novels.

    Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn. I need that Bluto in my life, Mezco's Popeye was pretty damn fantastic, I ended up double dipping and got the regular and DX white sailor suit release. Need that Ghost Rider too, that thing looks awesome!

    Can't. frakking. Wait. I loved the first, surprised the hell out of me. Most horror remakes, or I guess remakes in general, are usually meh to pointless. the IT remake , however, was fantastic.

    I just ordered my Lego Creator Harley Davidson, looks fantastic, and like a fun build, I'm excited. Also, I noticed I have, like, 19,000 VIP points to use, decided I'll save them for next week when I decide to grab my Lunar Lander, I should be able to get it for next to nothing.

    Looks quite amazing, but a pass for me, four MP combiners later, and an MP Omega Supreme, I simply don't have the room. I'm a bit baffled at people complaining about the price, Takara is, for some people in certain areas, charging $400+ for a new MP Optimus, $575 for this massive beast seems a steal in comparison. I'm definitely far more interested in what third parties will do with this, or based on this if they can't get a hold of one, which I imagine at least a few will.

    Hi-Metal R

    Tking22 replied to joppewo's topic in Toys

    Every time this thread bumps I get excited thinking it's a new announcement :(. Cool customs as always, but damnit where's my new announcements!?

    Got two new Mafex in, John Wick Chapter 2 and Justice League Cyborg. I doubt Bandai is going to finish their Figuarts Justice League, so I got this guy dirt cheap and have a KO Aquaman on the way. Cyborg is pretty crappy, basically what I remember from Mafex, but John is solid, decent digital printing on the face, looks better then the Chapter 1 version.

    Hi-Metal R

    Tking22 replied to joppewo's topic in Toys

    Okay Bandai, nobody is laughing anymore, where's the next Hi-Metal R announcement?
  16. Tking22
    Into the Jungle surprised me with how hilarious it was, and how well the new concept of a video game instead of a board game worked. This looks fantastic, I'm totally there! Plus Danny Glover and the hilarious little Danny DeVito? Now that's all just an added bonus, so to speak.

    Decided I wanted the original six Avengers Figuarts Endgame figures. Paid more then I wanted to for Cap and Tony, but it is what it is, the price is only going to go up. Passing on Ant-Man since I have two Figuarts of him already, passing on Ronin too, but Hawkeye and Hulk are both pre-ordered, just need a "The Dude" Lebowski Thor.
  18. Tking22
    Looks absolutely ridiculous, I'm totally in, haters gonna hate.
  19. Tking22
    They're both TWE so probably just NY and AE for now. I'm sure Bluefin will at least release Wanda since she's an Infinity War release, don't know about Spidey, Bluefin didn't bother with a single Endgame release, so I don't know if Endgame and beyond are being skipped.
  20. Tking22
    Hot damn thank you Bandai, I almost wasted money on a loose Scarlett Witch legends set, now I can just get what I want. Gotta disagree, this looks immensely better then the Legends figure, looks fantastic.
  21. Tking22
    Love Teen Titans Go, and Teens Titans Go to the Movies was fantastic! I love how they continually troll the regular TT fans, it's hilarious. I loved the older TT series too, but TT Go is a completely different beast that didn't replace TT, it's just a different show with a different flavor, a lot of the parody stuff they do is hilarious and totally on point.

    Figuarts MK50 Nano Weapon Set 2 in stock at BBTS for $84.99. Not my cup of tea personally, I just got the stand alone MK50, passing on both weapon sets. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/91752
  23. Tking22
    Well, I went ahead and nabbed an Endgame MK85 on Jungle, about $85 shipped isn't terrible. Widow and Cap will be here Thursday, Tony by Friday or Saturday, got Hawkeye at NY, and Hulk at BBTS, which oddly enough, hasn't adjusted their insane price for Endgame Hawkeye yet, him and Hulk are both TWE but they are attempting to charge more for Hawkeye then Hulk. Go figure.

    Good to hear you got yours at least, could've been a shitty situation otherwise, nobody likes dealing with delivery service disputes. At this point I've seen two other photos like the one I posted above, smaller quantities but still, this thing has got to be one of the worst figuarts figures put out by Bandai when it comes to distribution and scalping issues. I say distribution because apparently HLJ and some other sites have sent out an alarming number of "sorry we don't have enough" notices to people that got orders in, some had even paid and moved their figures to private warehouse, and that was for Endgame figuarts in general but MK85 especially.

    I've seen this pic floating around and it irritates the crap out of me, sometimes this hobby just isn't worth it :(.
