    I gotta say, I absolutely loved the Supergirl premiere, that was damn great, and I think they've got an excellent Clark/Superman to work with. I know everyone hates on CW costumes based on the early release and sneak peek photos, but damnit if he didn't look really good on screen, I don't mind the cape clasps or whatever they are. They pretty much gave me exactly what I wanted in a live action Clark/Superman in one episode, it was nearly perfect, the look, the wit and dialogue, the willingness to actually acknowledge and exude hope to those around him, I mean he even stopped and shook hands and thanked people for their work. He was VERY Superman, it was fantastic, and yet it didn't take away from Kara, it's still clearly her show, she started saving the falling shuttle first, she let Clark hold the building while she fixed it and saved the day, it was great, well done CW. The Flash is pretty solid too, their handling Flashpoint pretty well in my opinion, it was obviously never going to have a scale anywhere near the comics, but I'm liking it, and you know who showing up and knocking him into 1998 to tell him to stop screwing with the timeline was great. Arrow, meh, it's just really hard to get into after two pretty crappy seasons, and Ollie's willingness to kill again sucks. Aside from Dig's daughter, I hope Flashpoint did a good number on Arrow as well, they need some course correction after flopping so hard for so long.

    Gears 4 tonight at midnight for those that got the Ultimate Edition, which I did, because I am a die hard Gears fan, I love these games. Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow so I won't get to enjoy Horde 3.0 until later tomorrow night. Anyone else a Gears fan?

    I'm not the biggest Street Fighter fan so these are an easy pass for me, they look pretty good though.

    Got my brownies in. Haven't messed with them yet, I got a lot of other things in at the same time, but they look good, TV and DYRL options in one box was a good idea in my opinion.

    Lots of good stuff came in today, spread across three packages I got all these goodies. Everything is pretty damn great, except Figuarts Widow, she's a bit disappointing as far as articulation goes. The Figuarts Turtles are awesome, they feel really premium and heavy, Jigen is great, I needed him to go with Lupin. And I must say, I like my Jango Figuarts, he's a bit loose around the waist but it's only on his ammo belt thing, which is supposed to move. DX Figma Link is highly recommended, great little figure and the DX comes with all of the extra little goodies. I'll break into the brownies at some point, not a big rush on those, I love me some Hi-Metal R valks, but all this other new stuff needs to be messed with first.

    Finished Luke Cage up on Sunday night, really good in my opinion, I loved the sound track too. Can't wait for his buddy Danny to show up, aka the real dynamic duo.

    Still loving Rebels, and yeah, that second episode had a doozy in it. At this point I can admit I'm in the tin foil hat group that believes Ezra becomes Snoke, I see the pieces falling into place, more and more of it is making sense. Good stuff Rebels, keep it coming.

    I swore off 1/6 and Hot Toys a while back, but I couldn't help but grab this guy, he looks great. I really liked the Netflix season 2 suit, though I do wish it came with an unmasked head as well. I kind of doubled down on my bluff and pre-ordered this beautiful monster as well, the best Hannibal we've ever had in my opinion... I absolutely loved the show, so this is a must have.

    And now you can watch the superhero fight club part 2 clip, WB is over taking it down now. edit: Well damn, never mind, this still isn't the whole clip, there's a lot more to it.

    This guy looks pretty damn good, that alt mode is miles better then Scoria, but I don't think the bot mode is really any better, plus it better come with an all red toon face. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/perfectfusion-caesium-masterpiece-slag.1064281/page-67 I have the Toon Scoria re-issue on pre-order, but this guy looks real nice too, and he's cheaper. I'll probably cancel Scoria and just go with this guy. -I can't post the photos in here for some stupid reason, but the link above goes to new colored shots of PF Cesium, aka the new FansToys offshoot not MP Slag.

    HLJ is like that sometimes, I can assure you it will definitely go through, eventually. As long as no error occurred during the order they got it, they just have to play catch up. And just like that, AmiAmi sent out my three Brownies and Figuarts Jango.

    This is badass, they all look they are having a ton of fun. http://www.spoilertv.com/2016/09/superhero-fight-club-20-extended-promo.html I found links for this video on Youtube but Warner Bros. apparently wasn't ready to release this yet so they keep pulling the videos, seems to work in the link above though. Once again, very badass, and I am insanely excited. edit: The link I posted is to superhero fight club part 2, featuring Supergirl and the rest of the DC-CW gang.

    You must not own a Figuarts Ultron . Yeah I saw a picture of the backs of her knees and was disgusted, they look like those idiotic Play Arts peanut knees. I'm still excited to get her, she's on the way now, and I need her for completion sake. I could never even consider Marvel Legends or Select, I've literally never seen a single figure from either line that looked shelf worthy or even okay, so it's all Marvel Figuarts for me.

    My god this theme is just too amazing, all these years later and it still stands as the absolute king of super hero themes, not a lot of competition I can admit, but still, it's just SO perfect. That has me hyped, I can't wait for Supergirl to return and join the DC-CW-verse. The early in costume photos are always a bit off, but this new Clark/Superman is looking great! He even smiled, and joked, and acted like Clark! Amazing! And nobody had to die! With the Warner Bros. DC-Cinematic universe disappointing me at every opportunity, I am so glad I have these shows on CW to fall back on, they're filled with cheese, but I absolutely love them to death.

    HYPE! Loved the first one, when Keanu is good he's good, and unfortunately when he's bad, he's pretty damn bad.

    I just recently got burned on BvS Superman and Batman by Mafex, and plenty of other Mafex figures before them, so I've officially written them off. Their stuff tends to look really good, but their QC, build quality, and material quality is well below Bandai's quality in my opinion. I'd guess we never got Rey or other non masked guys up front because they still wanted to keep as many secrets as possible about the movie itself, Hasbro did the same. At this point though, there's little excuse, Force Awakens is old news, we should have at least announcements for Figuarts Rey, Poe, and Finn. Hell they're just now getting to an unmasked Kylo. I can understand not being able to do certain characters right away, like I said you gotta keep them secrets until the film itself releases, but you also can't put out a first release figure because people won't want to double dip on the second release to get the extra little goodies they missed on the first release, once again see unmasked Kylo. I just feel they should have been quicker and more on point announcing certain characters after Force Awakens was old news. So I don't think there's any conspiracy theories, Rey was awesome and her stuff sells, I'm sure they want to put more of her stuff out, but once again, I don't think I'd be in for/happy with Figuarts Rey V2 that comes with the lightsaber and other goodies the first couldn't have come with without spoiling massive sections of the film itself.

    And she's a Mafex, so she's almost guaranteed to be floppy mess, and a disappointment overall . I'm positive they will eventually, they still have to release all the stuff they've shown off already, and get out the Rogue One stuff.
  18. Tking22
    Oh yes, that'll do. Well these two look damn incredible, bought on site once again, well done Bandai.
  19. Tking22
    Yup I'm excited, NY just sent me the same email, Widow is almost on her way!
  20. Tking22
    Yeah I went ahead and ordered a KO, or I guess Lepin? UCS Super Star Destroyer. We'll see. Even if it's crap at that price I'll still use the pieces for something, and if it's not, oh boy I got a UCS Super Star Destroyer for less then the cost of my car!

    New magazine scans of the new Rogue One Figuarts. Like I said before, I'm in for two of each, and just look at that new Stormtrooper! He can kneel! I already mentioned above they confirmed the new hip system when they first showed these off, it's more then a new hat, but it should have been standard from the beginning.
  22. Tking22
    Mine should arrive Thursday along with Figma DX Link, these things look sweet. I watched several different reviews and they look like some damn solid figures, now the wait for the Shredder they showed off will be that much harder.

    Got some new goodies in, Senintel Rockman/Megaman is pretty neat. The Robot Spirits ANIME line continues to impress, the RX-77 is awesome, and the extra face and dialogue tiles with stands is a pretty neat little bonus, I got a set with my Gouf too. I'm really loving these FansToys MP Dinobots, to me these define what third party is capable of, and you really feel like you get your monies worth. That all said apparently this whole new re-issue of Soar/Swoop have a factory issue out of the box, the neck was assembled incorrectly in one spot so the head doesn't sit perfectly flush in either mode, not a pretty sight. Luckily FansToys is aware of the issue and BBTS already notified me I'll be getting new parts as soon as they arrive. Pretty bad mess up, it's not just the toon version, every new re-issue Soar no matter the color variant was sent out wrong. Still an amazing figure, I've got Scoria/Slag re-issue on pre-order too, gotta collect them all.

    Ah I see you went with the competition, I have DX-9 Mightron on the way myself. Despotron looks really great from certain angles, and not so much others, plus I wasn't a fan of his head. Either way, both are probably going to be far superior to whatever Takara puts out and calls their Megs 2.0.

    No idea why people thought this would be hard to nab, I guess many are new to this and still don't really get the Bandai Exclusive thing. Demanding payment up front scares away the idiots that pre-order literally everything, and then cancel 90% of their order once they get the bill, the only people buying this now are the people that really want it and have the money. I didn't even stay up, no need, I knew it would still be available this morning, I grabbed her at NY with no hassle or stress.
