  1. I’m actually surprised by them . I don’t remember them being a super great toy company other than maybe He Man back in the old days. The amber collection dinosaurs look really great, but for me after this raptor with all the crazy joints and cheap price, I’m really loving the Hammond collection. I’m also eyeballing the T. rex from the Hammond collection and it looks great for $50. It looks more like a premium figure that others would charge quite a bit more. Too bad he’s sold out at the moment, but the comic con version looks really fun with the dude on the crapper . I’m betting that’s gonna be a tough one to get cheap. Mattel really upped their game with these highly articulated dinosaurs
  2. Tried to make him look more menacing by having a vitruvian hacks skeleton riding him. I think I failed because they look like they’re having a great time together
  3. Yeah, I really think that this particular line is what I dreamed about as a kid. I kinda want the gallimimus after seeing some pictures and it doesn’t look too expensive either. Things have come a long way since I was little and all the dinosaur toys were rubber static pose items.
  4. I loved the anime back in the 90’s. I have a bad feeling about the live action
  5. Yeah, it’s almost more adorable than terrifying. I hear the Amber collection ones are closer to movie accurate, but I don’t have $35 to spend on a dinosaur toy. The stands on the amber ones hilariously appear as though the dinosaurs are constantly peeing, so I guess that’s a fun bonus. As far as this little Hammond collection version, it was a total impulse buy and I’m not disappointed, the imperfections actually make me smile. There aren’t too many fun toys for around ten bucks these days, I felt alright skipping lunch that day
  6. Could try silicone baking sheets. The paints I’ve used don’t seem to stick to that stuff
  7. Love this show. It’s so simple, yet artistically complex
  8. I always get kids logic and kitz concept confused since they’re similarly named and both do Robotech
  9. Looks like the prologue video I saw was pulled. I was checking my video history and it’s gone now. I can’t find it on the search either. I think the English subtitle version is out really soon. from what I gather the girl’s parents try an escape with the prototype for the main gundam and the mom drags her along for the ride. But there were no subtitles, so I’m just guessing that’s her mom and her dad was in a different mobile suit to help with the escape. For a series , it has a high quality look and the little prologue gives a reason why they probably call her a witch
  10. I saw a bootleg on YouTube. It has the main girl as a young child, but it wasn’t in English, so I kinda pieced things together. It has a battle where the prototype for the main gundam gets in a battle. The animation is really smooth on this one
  11. The movies may not be that great, but I dig this little guy. He’s got stupid big feet, but it helps to keep him standing. There’s a good amount of joints and just a little over ten bucks at target. I think they’ve been around a bit, but I hadn’t payed attention. Really fun little guy for the price
  12. That red giant team is going up for preorder on the p Bandai U.S.store along with a couple other newer items and another round of rereleases

    Yeah, it does a lot for having minimal joints.
  14. You’re right about that voice. It’s just not right at all
  15. That’s some odd news, hope everyone gets taken care of either by product delivery or refund, but if they did bankruptcy, they may not be doing refunds.

    One of my favorites tomahawk toys, very toasty version of the standard colors hope his slightly bigger brother comes along soon
  17. Ms Marvel was definitely less than marvelous, but not bad for what it was. I’d still say that if you weren’t interested before, there’s really no reason to watch. Hope the next show is something really worth watching. With all the good shows like Stranger Things and The boys finished for a bit, I need something to fill in the time

    Joy of the hunt?

    I do think I was more excited about toys when they were harder to find, but I feel like I don’t spend as much money or time on those and have more time for other hobbies or entertainment. I feel more proud of building a ten or twenty dollar model than purchasing a 100 dollar toy. And now I got some time and cash to do real life things like go to a couple big concerts every now and then. I’ve been sitting on a couple of tickets to Rammstein In September with all their fire and glory, that I bought before the pandemic rescheduled the world. I guess toy hunting wasn’t a super expensive hobby when I was really doing it. Now the better ones are premium buys and realistically only cost a day or two worth of work, but it sometimes can be rough deciding on what to buy and what to skip. When I was younger the cool action figures and toys only took skipping lunch for a couple days. I guess now the anticipation is more of the waiting game to see when the item you ordered is finally gonna show up or if you can get a decent price on a sell out item
  19. Those clear parts really came out well so far.
  20. That unfortunately was the one I was thinking of. We’ll keep trying
