    All of these figures are great. I won't be able to let the sun go down without working on RnR to get rid of those tattoos and to ARAH-up his deco a bit. Just hope I can find the right shade of green. And am I the only one that finds Copperhead a little... small? I don't imagine him to be a...

    Such a cool figure! I got one of those in the mail this week, along with the Marshall v2. As soon as we get a 4" TVC Cobb Vanth, I'll have the ultimate custom 1:18th Raylan Givens.

    Practically every haslab has followed this trend. I think larger kickstarter campaigns generally follow the same trend, same as ebay bidding (on things with enough bids to be statistically significant). It says something about human nature, the way we plan our purchases, our finances, and the...

    I find the red AV to be 90% as garish as the original deco, without any of the nostalgic charm. Neither makes any sense, so I figure I'm going to stick with my three orange ones. At least they're recognizable. Shooter, despite the terrible name, has a nice face sculpt. With one hair, she...

    I'm excited for Chuckles! I'm lukewarm on the face sculpt, and the tortured face looks more cartoonish than anguished, but I'll definitely get one. He and Action Force mail-in Condor can swap south american drug runner stories over umbrella drinks. Doc was automatic after I finished my...

    No sweat! Prime Day lasts through tomorrow if you have a change of heart. (I too love Mike Myers as the hyperactive playground kid in the harness.) I hear you about the Preorders.... July has been B-R-U-T-A-L. In the last two weeks, I've had the Torpedo wave drop, two full waves of Indiana...

    Both the skystriker and HISS got something like 8k in the final 48 hours as FOMO kicked in. So that's why I think the Dragonfly getting 4k in the next week is automatic. It would be a staggering reversal of trends to not get there. You need me to order a viper pack for you, have them send it...

    I never heard the SB rumor since we are already getting a SB two-pack. That would have been a rough, baffling choice. They revealed the third tier b/c there is less than a week left, and they didn't want to wait until Glenda funds b/c that might be on the weekend, leading to the third reveal...

    My Bazooka shipped, and I've already been charged for the whole rest of that wave from Pulse, so I expect to have them in a week or so. AMZ, WM, and DeepDiscount are carrying the wave too. While I want extra Torpedos to make a diving squad, I cancelled my AMZ order for the extras, figuring...

    If you like commando SE in general, you won't be able to resist. The CG... depends on how badly you want an officer, but definitely not a must-have. Although I suspect the odds of seeing either in the wild are slim. SS and Zartan never made it to pegs around here. When commando fomo gets you...

    Well, to be fair, he has a suppressed Uzi, a sidearm, and some other rifle slung over his shoulder, so it's not like the arrows are his ONLY weapons. It's part of the GridIron commando loadout, and I kinda like it. Killing someone with a bow fits with the stealthy commando flavor. Now if he...

    I love commando SE. I was initially intrigued with the SS connection, but they beat that horse to death. I agree that when the title became Joe:Starring SE and Ninja Force, it really went off the rails. They should have made it a spinoff of just killed the whole thing at that time. I hate...

    Stunningly, both came in today. the pair of SEs came in a bubble mailer that had not been crushed, and both cards were ok, one near perfect. Up close, he actually has a touch of dark green accents on the web gear buckles, grenade, and non-removable knife (the removable knife is still black)...

    The retro SE is my most anticipated figure in a while, mostly because it's the figure we should have gotten from the word go, not the umpteen gimpy shin guard, footie pajama, brown pants versions we got to start with. And now they should stop for a bit. No more SE for like two years. Don't...
