    The horses are just regular Mega horses, but I had to sculpt all the oddball parts of Ookla's horse. He has a puffy tail, a puffy mane, a horn on his nose, a bird beak mouth, and big bulgy eyes. Definitely not a traditional horse.

    The hardest part was Ookla's weird puffy horse!

    I didn't get to take as many toy pics at the beach as I wanted to last week, but I did enjoy what little messing around I had time for. I'm still tweaking most of the shots in lightroom, but I thought you guys would enjoy seeing a few...

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

    The target computers have three new Classified exclusive listings, but they have codenames, so we don't know who they are. I'm secretly hoping they're some of those Tiger/Python figures that I don't care about. I've had my fill of hunting for Target exclusives.

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

    Not hardly. I think the other collector said they were supposed to be getting a bunch, based on a conversation he'd had with another employee on monday. So no doubt there were several still back there for target-scalpers to ebay. The fact that the guy brought them out and handed us one each...

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

    Started seeing Breaker sightings pop up, so I decided to hit a couple of stores this morning (both out of the way). First store, no love. Second store, I debated about even stopping in b/c they never have anything, and they have this weird "modern" layout that is different than every other...

    Marvel Legends

    14 months later, the Haslab Sentinel has landed. It's pretty badass. Definitely a must-have piece for X-Men aficionados. Forgive the crappy pics, I was just messing with him after pulling him from the box. Hopefully I'll take some proper photos soon.

    Fortnite The Vault playset

    Wow, no kidding. Just ordered and they claim it'll be delivered on monday. Of course, amazon lies like a rug, so it'll probably be wednesday, but no biggie. I'm not sure it's worth $50, as it looks like more of a $30 set, but some of the accessories look like they'll be useful for 6" stuff...

    Takara Transformers

    Do you have Seige Sideswipe? Just curious how they compare. I really hate that black square Swipe's car-side, and the lack of a wing is a massive visual distraction. I'd definitely have to add one if I picked this up. But I'm a sucker for a red lambo, so I might get one and fix it up. I...

    I actually saw CC, Flint, and LJ at a target today. First time I've seen any non-movie Joes in months.

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

    With the basic mold for the O13 already made for Breaker, I assume that they'll be scattered through the line and all made eventually. Plus, we're (theoretically) getting so many Cobras, my list is Joe heavy. My list (assuming the rumor list holds): (soonest) Ripcord Clutch Ace Snow Job...

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

    Per TNI, these are the Classified computer leaks for 2022 (just RUMOR at this point, nothing confirmed) G.I. Joe Classified 6" Figures For 2022 Revealed?!? (toynewsi.com) Most of it sounds pretty plausible. Mostly, I'm extra excited that the Target Exclusives are Tiger/Python repaints that I...

    They had me at Airwolf. They lost me at $325. Very neat though.

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

    Yeah, I saw a couple of movie SS over the weekend, and they didn't get a second glance. Agree on all points. Never thought I'd see the day I wouldn't give two shakes about a Joe movie or it's highly articulated 6" figures, but it's 2021. Nothing is off the table. Scarlett is the only one I...

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

    Glad you got yours! Overall, it's a good figure. I really hate the helmet though, but in all fairness, I wasn't a fan of it on the original figure either. This one makes him look like he got off the shortbus. This facial portrait is much older/angrier than the W1 version. Mine doesn't...

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

    pcsguy88 did you paint it or buy one of the painted ones? If you did it, I'd be curious about your paint choices. I typically find basic Tamiya flat blue (XF-8) to be a pretty solid "cobra blue", but I'm not sure it would match the current classified Commander.

    Very nice. I bought one of those unpainted, but I haven't taken a brush to it yet.

    If you see them at any of the big e-tailers, be sure to post a link. Looks like a fun piece.

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

    In typical Amazon fashion... my RB showed up today out of the blue (yeah!). For a company on the bleeding edge of package logistics, it's astounding how bad they are at predicting when they're going to deliver something. It went from Sept, to August, back to September, and shows up randomly in...

    MTF - Vietnam

    Agreed. Nothing in the expensive artisan 1:18 world has blown my skirt up in recent years, but 'Nam era figures are just the best. Even for the nostalgia wanks such as myself who are largely only interested in classic Joe, this timeframe informs the gear and looks that influenced Hama and...
