Well, the pics are definitely CAD renders, so they're definitely not showing the effects of being 3d filament printed. The visible lines would be staggeringly annoying to me. The same seller has other Joe items for sale with actual photos, so you can get a better feel for what the...

Well, I'm still getting a Blowtorch, Frag Viper, and Darklon from AMZ (they're already in the wind), and Footloose wasn't scheduled from AMZ or Pulse until later July anyway, so if DD doesn't ship right away, I only delayed my multiples. It could be worse, and I saved $20+ tax.

Hmmm, I don't know. Everything I've ever ordered as "in-stock" shipped right away. BUT, I didn't notice a shipping date when I put this order in. When I look at the order page, it says: I may have screwed myself if they're still a month out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've used them many times before. They're fine for in-stock stuff. But they go to sleep on POs and forget to fill them. Then the item goes out of stock by the time you inquire, and their response is "Ooops". But I've bought a lot of clearance and fodder figures from them with no problems...

For what it's worth, Deepdiscount has the footloose wave in-stock and 10% off (code: OCTAVIA) if you buy $40 worth. I canceled my HP POs for the stuff in that wave they were still dragging their feet on. Both HP and AMZ still had Footloose more than a month out, but the remainder of the wave...

Haha, I was well out of Joe... and back in when this BH came out. It's an '04 VvV design. I liked most of this set, as it was a NF Short-Fuze (Downtown repaint), the first and only Action Man, a solid NF Flint, and a more interesting NF Tunnel Rat than the '80s version. The only real dud was...

New images of NF Beachhead and Quickkick. Don't care about the QK much (although it's more real-world practical than the barefoot look), but I like the BH. The deco isn't particularly attractive with the weird quilting pattern, but we're to the point now that I'm having nostalgia for the...

The same source that seems to be in-the-know said they will never put a single-carded ARAH figure in a haslab. Only the actual OG vehicle drivers get paywalled, but no one else... which is why we get NF variants of Ripcord and Crazylegs, international Glenda, "new" cobra troopers, Micky Mouse...

I haven't heard anything either. The word from someone who follows/tracks/deciphers all the retail code leaks insists there will be no more POs this month other than the haslab at the end. And that last week was indeed scrapped because of the LA riots. It was a pre-recorded livestream (huh?)...

I'm having a good laugh, over in the tfw thread about Magic Square MP bruticus, someone ran a Chinese social media exchange between a fan and MS through Google translate. It interpreted the crass-but-jovial greeting at the beginning of the fan's comment as, "F#$% you". Which made it seem...

I debated about the TVC TIE Advanced... but ultimately I put an order in. I figure I can cancel if I change my mind in the next six months. I do like the battle damaged wing option.

He looks good in the package, but in-hand, he's more impressive. I don't know why, as he's not THAT different than the CI and 2-pack versions... but just enough to pop and hit more nostalgia receptors. EDIT: Upon closer inspection, it seems that the head is the only part reused from the...

Yeah, Target's website is the worst. They ping my credit card every day for one of various 4-5 PO's I have open with them. Rather than checking it a few days before shipment just to make sure, they ping it weekly (per order) for six months. It's like they hope and pray they don't actually...

Also, did some work on retro RnR today... gave him a longer neck peg from a spare shipwreck torso leftover from the Duke boys project (dusty or stalker peg would have also worked), so he has a neck now. I also put a tiny spot of poster tack on his chest under his ammo belt to keep it from...

I know the feeling. I bought three retro vipers... one for the home display, one for the office photobooth, and one to keep carded. No need to replace all my other vipers, they're perfectly fine. My lone guy in each collection can be the squad leader or heavy gunner with his rolled up sleeves...

Yeah, I thought maybe that was the LA reference, but he didn't carry the joke far enough to make it too clear.

What an... odd fellow. I don't think I learned anything except that he seems to love COPS and hate the O13 and VAMPS, so we automatically can't be friends. Plus he seems to love the Go-Kart Striker. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The "35" in the last group is especially fun, as I used a color-changing paint that's different depending on the viewing angle.

Newcomers Group 3

Been doing a lot of customizing of my new favorite HW casting, a "Custom '68 Camaro" that has an awesome old-school short track / dirt track vibe. I've repainted 23 (!) of them so far into various classic and fictional liveries. Rather than post 150 photos, I'll just link to the galleries I...
