My HISS is scheduled for delivery today. Fingers crossed, as our mail/package delivery over the past week has been really spotty. I think our local post office is overwhelmed, as the stuff that reached the local PO and was supposed to be delivered last tuesday still hasn't arrived. But the...

Was out running some errands and mild christmas shopping amongst the hordes, and I found myself again in the vicinity of the out-of-the-way Ollie's. So I stopped in to find practically zero Joes. Half dozen Akikos and a single $15 LJ, and that was it. Still a ton of $10 MLs that I wouldn't...

Amazon has them all up... Techno-viper is the only one that hasn't gone live yet, still says unavailable. Big Boa Amazon.com Quick-Kick Amazon.com Airborne Amazon.com Scarlett Amazon.com Duke Amazon.com Recondo Amazon.com Action Soldier Infantry Amazon.com Action Sailor Diver Amazon.com...

BBTS has the Action Soldier & Action Sailer the same price as all the others, so it might be worth jumping on a PO just in case the price holds... EDIT: It did not. They "fixed the glitch". I wonder if the ones I ordered will be honored...

UPDATE: Pipeline reveals: - Starduster - almost started a custom of him, so this saves me the trouble, even though I already shelled out for the gridiron kit. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - Nemesis Immortal (not sure why he's not "Enforcer", but 25th did the same thing. Trademark?) - Zandar (needed to fill out...

So what do we expect from today's event? I assume we're getting some bragging about the HISS being shipped, as well as some pipeline color renders, and a couple of POs. Someone posted what appears to be leaked color renders of Airborne, Quick-Kick, Techno-Viper, Big Boa, and Retro Recondo...

I saw that. I might have picked up a couple of CAVs just for the mostly black buck underneath the big red vest. But they were gone and the rest don't offer any parts I need. I'm sure I'll think of something when they go back to normal price.

They said they're expecting the o-rings to have similar price points to the ReAction figures... which begs the question why they ever went down that road to begin with.

I agree. I'll absolutely buy o-ring stuff that is sunbow & comic accurate. There is no chance I could resist that, especially if they're compatible with o-ring vehicles, backpacks, and weapons. Only downside is that they'll be $20/ea, and thus every figure will require an internal debate...

Your assessment of that wave is pretty close to where I landed. I do wish SW's shield could go in either hand. I might remove that plate glued into the back and either reverse it for one copy or reattach it with magnets so it can be swapped at will. But I assume that since he's got a sub on...

I love Statler and Waldorf... :LOL:

New pics... That's the Scarlett and Duke we should have gotten from the start... and I like that Scarlett looks like she has some meat on her bones. Valaverse taught us that you can have good looking female bucks that aren't scrawny waif models. The Action Sailor/Diver looks awesome, and...

Yeah, definitely feels bait and switchy. Of course, the intern who makes the ad probably doesn't know one joe from the next, so in her mind, they're all the same. On the day of my fruitful target hunt, I passed through the neighborhood of my more remote Ollie's, and I couldn't bring myself to...

Yeah, it's mostly a gridiron kit for Mainframe. I could do without the visor/glasses, and when I get a more distinct head, I might cut them out. But right now, I'm just using a stock Duke head, so I'm ok with him being less visible. Skidmark is just a straight-up TF Dusty with orange gear...

Finally finished some of my lazier customs. Thought they came out pretty good. The last one is the best. Skidmark!!!!!

Also, I got a piece of old mail that came in today (it had my old office address on it, so I know it's been in forwarding purgatory for weeks). It was a flier for Super7 and their holiday deals. What caught my eye was a Snake Armor module they were selling. It's not part of ReAction or...

I can check, but I'm guessing it won't fit over the hair. I might end up with a spare Shippy head, so before you buy one, hit me up. If I can get some ML Logan cowboy-boot-feet to fit on Shippy's legs, I've just found a good base for some good 'ol boys who never mean no harm... So today, I...

A few but not many. Definitely not a priority for them. Of course, can't leave them in light grey. Those above were pretty cheap (<$5) 3D printed weapons from etsy. Gridiron has a sublime SMG/harpoon mashup weapon, but they get $13/ea, and I just couldn't justify it. It's definitely the...

I've seen those on ebay and etsy, both the spear gun and the classic backpack. They do look good. I just couldn't justify the expense of outfitting a whole squad with both, as they'd cost more than the figures originally. But if I had just one or two, I'd be all over that. I spent a small...

Well, my Hawks came from AMZ, but apparently I had not canceled the pair I ordered from Pulse... so now I'm going to have a whole squad of Hawks. D'oh! So you ask yourself, who else wears a leather jacket... Keel Haul & Heavy Metal? This is how my customs get started!
