Agreed, it's been quite a run. And honestly... this is going to sound like a brag, but that's not my point... with what I've got cooking in the printer these days, I don't even care if the line continues. I mean, I'd *prefer* that it keeps going and give us new figures, improved sculpts, and...

I've definitely posted a few shots of mine here, but not sure if that's what you're thinking of. Either way, I'm plenty happy with my own. That new thing is not better IMO... and definitely not $125 better. Then again, I don't have a single bolt-on missile pod, so mine will certainly be...

*I* have printed better looking 3D printed ones. :LOL: I also don't know why the surface of this MTO looks less like junkyard parts and more like some kind of rhino skin. The weird texture only adds to the weird proportions and goofy add-ons. But I cannot get past the front-end looking...

Thunder Machine up for PO... and it's still fugly. And unlike the arctic HISS, they're collecting the TM money at the end of the PO window. So it's basically a haslab without the MOQ and tier perks.

I had planned to skip Overkill... because 90's... but much like SAW Viper, I do remember him from the comic, and AMZ had him "used" for $19, so I took a gamble after the successful Renegades adventure last week. He arrived complete and unharmed. The box was all kinds of crushed, but as it was...

Just toys... ;) But yeah, I'm working on some pretty sweet stuff. The new beast printer is allowing me to do things the older one simply could not. I've got about 3hrs left on a 42 hour print... fingers crossed. Anycubic did not offer me a new unit, but they did offer free replacement parts...

I was working on a big project, running both printers at once... and I kept getting errors out of the older one. I started it back up this morning, only for it to fail again minutes later. So I started it one more time, and sparks, flames, and smoke started flying out. Apparently the main...

It's not a big deal... if you open him, you probably have a parts bin where you can steal a longer one... and if you're not opening him, no one's going to be examining close enough to notice. But yeah, it's strange that they got it right the first time and then screwed it up on the retro.

Retro Grunt's card is indeed iconic. However they screwed up the figure compared to the regular release. They switched to the shorter neck barbell, so he has no neck, so weird. And they didn't give him the Stalker webgear, opting for something less than OG. But in a display of big card art...

Hey, 250th Duke arrived today, in tolerable shape too. You're batting 2-for-2 on the good deals this week!

Mine arrived too, and I also didn't see any discernible difference from the "new" items I normally get from AMZ. Maybe a little shelf wear on the corners, but even that was minor. Maybe someone returned them and AMZ was simply afraid to list them as new b/c they weren't sure? Definitely...

If it's just a beat-up box, that would be an upgrade over what I'm expecting. Anytime WM or AMZ ship in a bubble-mailer, the box gets destroyed anyway. Now I have to care about getting the stupid sarge/mercer 2-pack. Maybe it'll show up "used" for half-price too... 'cuz I'm not paying $60 for...

Ok, I bit for $30. We'll get a good look at what "used" Joes look like. Taking any bets on whether they're figure swaps or just missing half the accessories?

'da hell? hahahahahaha He's too old to play himself, and any actor would have to have a 6-in prosthetic jaw. I'm guessing this either never makes it out of development or goes straight to Tubi.

Agreed... and it doesn't help that I usually buy these things in duplicate or triplicate. I'm going to rack up a grand in classified in the next month if I'm not careful. Good thing I handle the cc statements ;)

Apparently I did get in just under the wire (in theory). I appreciate the tip. I stopped into the WM near my kids' high school... which I haven't set foot in during the last 18mo b/c they drove themselves. It too had a ton of TMNT/Joe stuff, but they actually had some classified things too...

WM swears they shipped 250th Duke... so fingers crossed.

Thanks! Weird... my bookmark for 250th Duke always takes me to the overpriced third party seller, despite bookmarking the original listing. I'll give that a shot, see if it pans out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mmmm, I have never seen 250th Duke for sale at MSRP since the original listing that got auto-canceled, nor have I ever seen one in the wild. If you are aware of a plethora of them, feel free to shoot me a link. It's weird, as it seems that the original RV release was uber-plentiful in europe...

Ahhh, damn. Sorry to hear that. I bought a lot of stuff from Vortious back in the teens. He made a ton of nifty parts. He was a fixture around here for several years, seemed like a good dude. Condolences to his family.
