I don't know much about DG besides recalling the particular artistic style of the comic, which, like TR, would probably need a bit of toning down for the post #metoo era. Now that you mentioned it, I am reminded that back when I used to be a 1:6 collector, I had both a leather-clad (was that...

Wow, that came out of nowhere, but I'm also onboard with it. However, while I fully acknowledge I'm in the minority, I'm much more fond of the more recent video game version (the one with pants, climbing axe, bow and a proportional body) than the one depicted in the 30 logo at the bottom. I...

Yeah, I had heard that a VC predatory buy out was the final nail, but that they had had some issues with their toy mfr partners that led to that eventuality, but that’s just what I heard. I hope that those kinds of predatory practices have since been made illegal and cut off the profit by...

Yeah, there have only been a few times I’ve found myself with enough leftover time and energy to do any kind of leisure shopping while in South America, Europe, Asia or even Oceana. When I do, I gravitate to the larger department stores or actual toy stores when those are present. It always...

Here’s hoping that the young talent will get to rise and guide the line after the current Lenny-driven plans finish up. I would imagine that his last plans finally include delivery of the remaining OG, more late stage Joe and also some more new/weird stuff (the last two being my least favorite...

Apparently he was more of the execution guy for Lenny’s “big picture“ designs. Together they were the face of the design team. My hope is that maybe this will actually stabilize the line away from the weird and to the “safe” releases we haven’t gotten yet.

Another one bites the dust… https://toynewsi.com/278-63516

I don’t, I usually just swing by a couple times a day or so, How’s the camel thing work?

And... I just ordered Sarge and Mercer from AMZ. I'm not proud of it, but they had a good coupon and I had some play money that got me down to less than $10 out of pocket so I did it. Do I need another Sarge? Absolutely not. But I did want to lock in Mercer as he was a bit of a favorite back in...

So I finally found a minute to open up the Zanya/Chameleon set and get it up and displayed. While nothing particularly outstanding, the Chameleon does fine as the center piece of the Zartan/Dreadnok/other-assorted-freaks shelf. I'd characterize it as about as good as the original, since it was...

Yeah, AMZ is weird for us. Sometimes we get stuff super fast, even without using Prime. And then there are other items that take forever even when my wife uses my daughter's Prime to speed things up. I'm pretty sure those must be through a third party seller or something. I think we have a...

Yeah, endcap or island displays seem the most likely since most stores don't seem to have dedicated shelf space these days. I think I've seen one of those islands like you mentioned as well, but never one of those cardboard CS Joe end caps that were showing up a couple months ago. I'll be down...

Gotta love that buttery flakeyness (is that a word?) that only WM can bring... :troll: I can't say for sure whether or not the novelty and nostalgia will overtake me in the moment if I do see one in the wild (which seems nearly impossible these days since none of the WMs near me carry anything...

Has he made figures before? I'm wondering about the quality and compatibility to blend in with the CS figs.

Ramen Mauler? https://toynewsi.com/477-63340 Maybe a ride for Steeler...

Oh yeah, AMZ says my Zanya is supposed to arrive on Monday. That's a surprise! Apparently I stopped paying attention and didn't expect that one for a while yet, though Full Force has been reporting various Joe merch showing up at ports. Thanks for the heads up! Looks like the Dreadnoks will...

Yeah, aside from the individual price drops, something weird happened with their pricing on Wave 2. A while back I had an excess of play money burning my wallet and was considering buying a pile of them with it. At the time I believe they were priced something like $55, $66 and $88 each for the...

I have no point of reference for those guys but they look pretty cool. First impression from the pics is that they are a bit more OG (normal) proportioned vs. today's typical 'roided-hero proportioned figures. They definitely give upsized O-ring.

I can't justify the cost myself, as my next big play purchase will likely be a DF (either a Haslab or a MTO if that happens). But I did pass the link along to my daughter who has more undesignated cash than the rest of us anyway (it's nice to have a job and live rent free... for now). She is...

I agree. It might even cause them to go the safe route and make the rest of the missing OGs and some more proper retros ahead of anything else Neon Ninja Force.
