I ended up with some unexpected solo time today, so I opened up and displayed FV, FL, BT and even CBAT. I had opened up and displayed Road Pig and his dog a couple nights ago. I displayed him with is classic (if ridiculous) CB hammer and the shield, but without all the other stuff he really...
New DTs showing up is good news. I'd still like to pick him up at some point, given the opportunity. I suppose, in a way, the rarity has drawn my interest (as well as having recently picked up other non-top tier figs).
There is a PO option for him on DD, but I think I'll hold out until he...
I swung by my local Ollie's at lunchtime today. Still nada, though it did reinforce how disheveled my local store is compared to some of the ones I've seen from youtube toy hunters. I spoke to another employee, who was helpful, but hadn't seen anything come through recently. He seemed to know...
It’s weird, I am happy that there might be deals to be had, but I am also slightly disappointed that GJCS is apparently making another appearance at Ollie’s. It does make sense though with these 60ths, as they really didn’t get carried much by brick and mortar stores. I could see how they may...
Got my “shipped” email from DD for the 3 figs from the current wave, coming from Kentucky so, barring USPS being particularly stupid, they should be here by the end of the week.
And… today I caught a video on youtube where a guy found 60th HALO and Marine figs for $12.99 each at his local...
Leaning into the specific lore of the toon and comics is the right move for Super7, and has always been their strength. They can continue to shine there and move out of the retro CS lane. Hopefully that will keep them afloat and keep the content coming.
It almost seems as if the CS came along and put the shortcomings of the other two into clear focus, pilling onto an already diminishing demand for overproduced, overpriced, underscaled, underkitted, recycled action figures. Almost... :LOL:
No doubt the CS has far exceeded our early expectations. I don’t know the actual numbers, but, at least anecdotally and from what I have seen reported online, there are and have been exponentially more SW and ML figures that have found their way past regular retail to the close out stores than...
That’s good info on the weapon hand interface for FV. I’m sure I’ll be taking some time to try to work that out. I don’t see having Frag-Viper just running a sub gun or two. Though I seriously doubt I’ll try to make the “flying grenade” effect somehow work, just one in the cup at the ready. In...
And she's put together and displayed. What a cool vehicle! So easy to assemble, big but not overwhelming, cool driver (what is it about the gray?), just a well done set. I fear I have started down a road though (pardon the pun). If/when they release a VAMP Mk II, I will have one, even though it...
Well, I caved. Your receiving your order that quickly was the lynchpin. I ordered FL, BT and FV from DD (who is apparently based out of KY, which explains the speed), and dropped them off my WM PO. I saved a few bucks in the changeover and should get them next week, if all goes well.
My...
Nice! I saw retro Viper and RnR as well as FV, BT and Darklon (no FL) at Target today as well. I was tempted to buy FV and BT and then cancel my POs at WM, but decided it likely meant they’d soon be on the way anyway (assuming the shipments have arrived on the mainland for all the retailers)...
Firstly, Cobra La. Ew.
Other than all the GI Joe the Movie content, I see where this has a lot of potential, but it also still seems to have a long way to go. I assume it was all translated to English. Otherwise, why were a lot of the mouth movements so out of sync with the voices? And the...
I see what you mean with the Joe-scaling. I don't see a lot of filament evidence either, though I'm hardly qualified to know what to look for there when it's not obvious. While the finished WHALE is likely to be a much more simplified scaled down version, there definitely seems to be significant...
So you say you want a CS Whale? We got one right here...

Color me skeptical that it will come out fully to scale (ginormous), functional and looking that legit. Has 3D printing gotten that good and efficient enough to produce that for $500 + $15...
I just happened to notice it because I first thought it said June 21-23, before I recognized it. Now it keeps kicking me back to the beginning of the checkout without completing the transaction.
I'd love to save a few bucks and possibly get the stuff quicker, but if it won't take my money...
Does their shipping usually take like a month though? I have FL and FV in the cart ready to buy and it says delivery 7/21-23. It's still well before WM estimates they'll have them, but seems like a long delivery time after ordering stuff that's "in stock."
