Out of the blue ARAH trivia, coming at ya! Was randomly looking at some O13 customs using the newest modern WM retro Stalker/Grunt buck, and I stumbled across this article detailing that the class of '82, which got swivel arms in late '82/83, was due in '84 to get updated heads on some figures...

I never find jack squat on WM clearance. The minute stuff disappears from the main isle, it's gone. The clearance isle is nothing but random open boxes of hair curlers, tacky plastic home decor, and some pokemon or fortnite thing nobody wanted to begin with. Unless they have a firesale...

The only thing the retros have going for them is improved decos. -Baroness loses all the gold accents and has a really nice matte body with glossy armor. -Destro adds eyebrows, which make no sense yet look much better, IMO. -LJ looks to have a better digital face-print (on the same sculpt)...

"Finally for the Walmart exclusive 6" Retro Cardback wave they revealed they will be doing a total of 8 figures and that will be it. So far they have revealed 6 of them which includes Baroness, Lady Jaye, Destro, Gung-Ho, Storm Shadow and Zartan. After that they have something else planned with...

Those conflicts didn't have a proliferation of red/blue lasers. Who knows what the optimal gear is for desert laser combat?! All your heavy armor might be useless! :sneaky:

I don't view Dusty as "exposed"... in my head, he's running light/lean. Can't be wandering the desert with all that heavy stuff on, he'd die. He survives on savvy, not head-on taking rounds to the chest. ;)

I don't think the Dusty wave is actually in front of the Stalker wave. In all likelihood, they just put a ridiculously long lead time on that wave because it was announced in the height of the supply chain issues. I think they have a better handle on it and can predict times a little more...

Fan First Tuesday recap: Six new reveals with no PO announcement at this time: - Snake-Eyes & Timer - green and black deco, white wolf - nice I guess, but not blowing anyone's doors off - Zartan (sunbow) (WM retro line) - looks good, not sure if it's really any better than previous releases -...

Cool find! Never seen that one before...

They also have Mega MOTU Point Dread for $15, MSRP $49.99... snagged a couple of those too. With a little paint, the canopy on that thing will be perfect for a MegaJoe Snowcat cockpit.

Yeah, I bristle at the notion that prices need to increase just because they lost access to a small communist market. I know they don't want revenue to decline, but does gouging your most loyal customers to make up for it seem like the best long term strategy? It's not like losing the tiny...

Sweet baby jeebus, when will it end?! Hasbro Toy Prices Going Up Again (marvelousnews.com) Hasbro Inc said on Tuesday it would have to raise prices further to cope with soaring costs and warned of a potential revenue hit of about $100 million this year due to its decision to pause toy...

All of these have the "anniversary release" premium attached. The Toad figure is priced $2 higher than the Anniversary Cap and IM from late last year, and they came with a ton more accessories. He doesn't come with as much as a regular figure, yet he's $10 more because.... "special" ? I think...

I was pretty excited about several of the Spidey ML reveals yesterday... then I saw what they are charging 😲 Hasbro is smoking some serious crack. I'll overpay for a few choice figures, but I scaled back my PO list by about 50%. This is not going to end well. FYI, everything but the retro...

Agreed, the hands need some flexibility, but I want the rest of the plastic to be pretty solid. I intensely dislike rubbery/gummy figures.

After opening them, I'm of two minds about AV and BAT. The AV is... fine. He has lots of gear and looks sufficiently vintage, but for some reason, I find him only marginally exciting. One of mine has very loose ankles, making him a colossal PITA to keep standing. He'll have to perpetually...

Very cool, excellent choice. He has good taste! I bought a P320 full size and liked it so well, I also grabbed a P320 compact. They're about as impressive as I could imagine. Even the compact isn't as small as the P365, but I liked the hand-feel so well, I couldn't make myself go smaller...

I love the Sig pistols I bought last year, and the reviews on the Snakebite are really good, definitely a high bang for the buck. The only knock was the heavy trigger, and the SE version subs in a lightweight two-stage trigger... problem solved. I put a bug in the ear of my local dealer, so...

Nice. I've never bought any PSA pieces, but I hear they're pretty good bang for the buck. I'm currently looking for a Sig Tread Snakebite SE... last year I upgraded the pistol and shotgun portions of the armory, so I figure a rifle is in the works next.

Sorry about Chris Kattan... I assumed I wasn't the only one that saw it ;). Someone else pointed out to me that the sculpt was an homage to the original LJ voice actress (and I see the resemblance when looking at her photo), but when I see the toy by itself, all I get is "Peepers" the...
