And that's why I'll be getting them in spite of the goofy color schemes. While I know they screwed the colors on purpose, who knows if they'll ever get around to the correct ones. So at least I'll have a base to start from, as well as all the gear.
Stalker is a good fodder figure, not only...
FYI, BBTS has Stingers on sale for $50. That feels crazy-cheap.
EDIT: and Scrap-Iron for $23... also the cheapest I've seen.
EDIT2: and I failed to mention DD's latest coupon, "LEAVES" for 15% off in-stock. They don't have much new, but I did grab a couple of retro Stalkers for fodder, as...
I love the fact that they're doing Short-Fuse and Steeler (despite the crappy reality that tanks are not kewl enough... for a military unit?).
But I'm genuinely perplexed at the color choices. Steeler is far too dark (i.e about the color scheme SF *should* be), while SF has a two-tone color...
I couldn't stand it, had to take some pics...
New guys are definitely taller... but clearly BACC (not pictured) didn't get the memo. I just put him next to Serpentor, and Serpy d-w-a-r-f-s him... and this is a guy in an IronMan suit. When they redo BACC, he'll definitely need to be bulkier...
I just put MW on my shelf at home... and DAYYYUM, he's tall. He's the same height as RoadPig, a heavy 1/4" taller than all the other "regular" dreadnoks. He makes Buzzer look like a middle-schooler.
Not sure if they're just going for height variation to be interesting or if this is a broader...
Agreed, it'll be Q1 before my Ollie's ever gets any, and the good ones will go in seconds. There will be nothing left but the girl sniper, and she's not even worth $13.
Hahahaha, days after the end of the campaign, hasbro magically added a bunch of orders to the tally that unlocked the first tier. Funny how that works... days later.
They are worse at counting than Dominion voting machines, and I suspect, just as crooked.
Got around to opening BACC and Monkewrench last night... BACC is just not what I hoped for. The armor isn't as big, angular, or aggressive looking compared to the ARAH figure. He looks more like he stole the suit from Ironman. To me, he's a big dud. I look forward to a second sculpt that is...
The black televiper forearms really ruin it. I'm not saying I wouldn't pick one up on clearance for fodder, but if they want it to be race-ambiguous, give him Stalker's sleeves or something. Jet-black bare arms is beyond bizarre as a design choice.
Wow, I'm genuinely stunned. This thing wasn't even halfway with 10 days to go, was 2500 away yesterday, and interest seemed to be zero. I was expecting it to go backwards today.
It makes me question whether they juiced the numbers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Can't say I'm surprised, but it kinda sucks. I've already essentially quit buying Black Series, and my Marvel Legends purchases have slowed to a trickle compared to years past. But I'm bummed that it's coming to Joe too.
Requiring Joe to match BS & ML price points always feels artificial...
Nothing wrong with that. I always liked Breaker a little extra because he is from Gatlinburg.
It was a nice little touch they added to the file cards. The only thing that bugged me was the staggering number of Joes from RI. I know that was Hasbro's corporate location, but it felt a little...
As much as I kinda like the FH Skyhawk's winged configuration, it just wasn't classic enough for me, so I had to do the conversion. It almost looked weird in the ARAH configuration at first, but I'm glad I did it.
Word of warning, getting the engine connection covers on there is brutal, as...
