I'm guessing there won't be any takers here. Of our small core group, I'm not sure we have any hardcore WWII folks left. But I could be wrong. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If I were a betting man, I'd assume those POs will go live on Wed next week, 1pm for premium, 2pm for all else. Those alien plants are supports... some people use different flavors/shapes, but I think "trees" are the most efficient. And they only attach to the part by the tiniest thread, just...

The expectation by insiders is that MKII is going to PO next week, along with the HAL/GS, and Action Man... all Pulse exclusives. If you're far away where interwebs are sketchy or a VPN can't circumvent their geo-blocks, I'll be happy to pick up an extra MKII. If you want to PM the best...

Nah, no pressure felt... doing fun stuff like this is the whole reason for having the cool toys. My inner engineer likes the challenge. I merely want to keep it fun. The minute I have to start mass-producing things, responding to paypal emails and customer service inquiries, lost shipment...

Thanks for the input. I assume that it would be easiest to print a little barely-visible wedge piece to fit under the launcher (or maybe a few of them in various sizes) to keep the rack from drooping at different angles rather than developing an "effect" to put under there... unless that effect...

Ok, I need some input on this MMS missile exhaust project. I've found what I think is a suitable starting point, and I began working on the mods to fit the MMS. But I have questions: - how long would you like it to be? Right now, I have them kinda maxxed-out at just over 400mm (roughly 16")...

I'll always prefer the green OG VAMP (my first Joe toy of any kind), but the MKII looks nice (ignoring the same basic proportion issues that the green classified one has as well). And I look forward to getting tan Clutch for desert missions and WWOE setups. I'll need to print a retro helmet in...

Yeah, Deep-Six... I was surprised he wasn't a bit higher. He's only a deluxe, but I thought they might try to classify him as a Zanya/Chameleon figure+vehicle price point just due to his size. That's good, as I was prepared to balk. I like my Lightyear version enough to not have overpaid...

I ordered Deep-Six today... skipped King CoCo and the "coming-to-an-Ollie's/Ross-near-you" $110 ATV-Trubble Bubble repaint 2-pack. What an overpriced POS offering. Honestly, I'm surprised at the number of people going nuts for the weird hooded CoCo. The set costs $70 for the hood and throne...

So far... GS is automatic... and while I never liked the MKII as much as the original VAMP, I'll likely get one. I'm surprised at the Action Man. I always like the 2000's TRU o-ring figure, and the short-lived comic in the teens was fun, so I'll probably take a flier on him. The head sculpt...

If I can find a tolerable smoke trail design, it should be no trouble to put an MMS mount cutout in it, print in translucent orange, and rattle-can the back half white. I've already got the MIM-23 missiles designed. I'll see what I can come up with, no promises though! I'm absolutely no good...

My first reaction is "meh". As expected, the figure is nothing like what anyone hoping for a hooded CoCo would ask for. It's not comic, toon, or '80's toy inspired. It looks more like a 25th repaint or talking battle corps 90s figure than anything else. And knowing hasbro, they'll probably...

Maybe I need to hang my DF to enjoy it more. I literally have not touched it since unboxing it two years ago, just taking up counter space in my comic book closet. It's so big and seemingly fragile, I don't know what to do with it. Both the DF and the Rattler make me think twice about another...

The 5th figure from the next wave is heavily rumored to be a *new* bad guy. Same source that told us Sundown was a *new* cowboy figure, so it's probably correct. And we should likely expect V3 Dusty w/ Sandstorm to be the next "with pet" release. Everything else has either already been...

NGL, I'm not sure what the skull face is about. Are we supposed to pretend that DeepSix dies in this big suit?!

Hmmm, I literally just finished parsing the audio from that "No Place Like Springfield" 2-parter last night. I will definitely get one. However, it will feel like a waste if we never get a Mara figure to pair with Shippy. She's the part that makes him *want* to believe it's real, even if she...

At this point, it's nothing new. I have a list as long as my arm of personalities I used to like that ended up with lefty-syndrome. I can't disown them all. I just have to compartmentalize and try to just see them for the things we agree on.

I love Dan Larson and Toy Galaxy. I missed his political turn. That's unfortunate. His toy videos are pretty great. He clearly loves toys and these properties the way us children of the 80s do.

I think the pics are just AI guesstimates, as that's par for the course for most of these info-video guys these days. Haven't seen anything that I thought was a leaked official pic. Yeah, he might be right. I think a MkII would certainly sell, especially since a lot of people didn't get a v1...

The guy in the know at TFW just yesterday threw cold water on the Vamp Mk II idea... Someone wished for a tan Clutch in retros, and he said that they'd likely reserve that for if/when VAMP2 got made and that a tweaked green version was more likely for retro. That didn't sound like someone who...
