    G.I. Joe Classified Series (1:12)

    I saw several retro Beachheads today, so not all is lost. And the Dukes and Scarletts will sell eventually, as they're popular characters AND very well done this time around. I don't worry about those the way I would lesser waves. And to remind me that it's not all "weird", I'll be getting a...

    Legends of the West Kickstarter

    Dang, checked it out, and it's a weird collection of stuff! What's even stranger is that the pledge levels are 1) $50 horse or 2) EVERYTHING for $550... no more of this pick and choose how many figures and which ones... mostly because the bulk of the figures are unlocks, not base offerings...

    Legends of the West Kickstarter

    Dammit, you're tempting me after I just swore off kickstarters. I still haven't gotten my money back from Marauders for the last massive failure!

    Well, rumor is that Nemesis Enforcer PO is due before the end of the month. We've got one on 10/22 and potentially another on 10/29 (with the fake 10/27 "hasbro holiday" falling on a sunday). But yeah, too much weird is going to kill things for a huge chunk of fans. This isn't MOTU, but then...

    And then there's Raptor. He's a fine figure of a laughable character with completely horrid accessories. Not sure how you categorize that. The figure itself is highly detailed and looks like I'd expect a bird-fettished accountant to look. I rather like him, far more than I expected to...

    It is hard to read, but I think it just said "Roadpig" in a gothic font like you see Mexicans put their surname in the back window of their cars. Overall the figure is huge, dwarfs Big Boa even. His accessories are fine but I think they're mostly unnecessary extras to pad out the "deluxe with...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series (1:12)

    I like some more than others. SE is definitely the dud of the wave. I agree he offers nothing that the OG figure does not, save a mask without lips. On the other hand, CoCo looks more sunbow than his original 82/83 figure, and Covergirl couldn't help but look better than her ARAH figure...

    So many plans, so many parts, not nearly enough follow-through. I'm forcing myself to actually finish some customs! To go with the 1:12 Ramen Tiger Orange: And just because... They're YUUUUUGE. C'mon, man!

    G.I. Joe Classified Series (1:12)

    I think the best way to display is "pre-chute-deployment", probably hanging from fishing line or something. Yeah, I wanted the second one for ripcord, but I'm getting the NF version with the dragonfly, and I'm confident he'll be an automatic candidate for a retro release. But if not, I'll...

    Got the 60th Pilot/HALO Jumper today... and he's a whole pile of meh. He's almost 100% Airborne repaint with a haslab ripcord backpack and helmet/mask. He does have a lot of camo paint, but it makes him look almost identical to the Valaverse Blowback sniper figure. There is absolutely nothing...

    Got retro Stalker today, and other than the camo beret, he's pretty damn perfect. I'm just going to swap lids with one of the multitude of v1 Stalkers I bought on the cheap for customs, and he'll be solid. If I had a minor gripe, I have to say I wish he had a new head sculpt. There's...

    I've been enamored with some of NewAge's toy-deco legends figures and broke down and ordered several I'd skipped from Ali. But I started looking at reviews online and re-stumbled across this video, and it just makes me happy. I'm sure I've posted this before, but I watched it again, and it's...
