Yeah, $167 for nearly 3k pieces is a steal. Plus it's a damn cool set when built, and it comes with lots of characters, a couple of them exclusive to the set.

Grayskull is down to $167 on amazon. Not sure what my threshold price is, but at some point, I'll feel compelled to buy more for building out the castle or stashing for when the set goes to $500 on the secondary market the minute it's sold out.

I went there too. It seems we're looking for magazine writers!

I think that has more to do with WM and the ilk over-ordering the initial waves to guarantee they have stock when the "gotta be first" launch hype hits. The problem comes when they flood the market with w1 and forget to order or stock subsequent waves. That's how you end up with billions of...

Eh, you can get a better vibe to keep the wife happy for $18... just sayin' :ROFLMAO:

I mean, Jar-Jar sucks... but I'm not sure he swallows.

That's the new sticker-price. I bought my "vintage" collection x-wing at TRU several years ago, and the MSRP was $60 in 2013. The fact that they gave it a different vintage box and now charge $100 is pretty terrible. I kinda want one, but no way I'm paying that. I'll wait for it to get much...

I won't be buying any of them, but I agree, they look solid. It's hard to go wrong with G1 goodness. That's probably the best Cliffjumper hasbro has ever produced. If I didn't have the XTB figure, I'd use that one as an MP fill-in, assuming the backpack wasn't gigantic.

Agreed. I have seen several pics like that, and they make me reconsider too. However, they largely seem to obscure the little square grill and the fact that his torso is so short and squatty. When I then see him standing straight up, I'm far less enthused. When there is a $100 KO, maybe...

He just looks so fiddly. I'm tired and frustrated just from looking at him. I'm an engineer for pete's sake, and some of these TFs make me feel like I'm taking a test I didn't study for. At that point it ceases to be fun or clever, just irritating.

Wow, that is a panel-y mess. His backpack is the size of a volkswagen... oh wait... Part of me says, "yeah, that's a better shade of yellow, and the shape of the car, while stupid and chibi, is practically iconic at this point." The other part says, "It would looks absurd with all the other...

Comics are generally not that boring. Stuff typically happens. It's a visual medium, and talking heads are rarely the best way to tell a story in comics. It's a true shame the Dreamwave material is no longer in print or available digitally that I can tell (although if you know the right...

Ahhh, I see. I'm glad you're enjoying it. It seems to be very polarizing, people either really like it or really hate it. Ironically, it's the first ongoing TF comics series I just stopped reading after the first few issues. Sooooooooo much talking. To me it read like the Galactic Senate...

My son has several Siege figures, and they do have a strong G1 vibe, which I like and encourage. And you're right, they do seem to hide the hollowness better than Combiner Wars and Titans Return style figures. I wasn't aware that Siege figures came with comics. That seems like something I...

I've seen the single, but I didn't know they were making a 3-pack, very cool. I agree, for hasbro it's not bad. I still find the Siege stuff a bit on the greebly side, so much extra detail and a zillion little raised panels and lines. After staring at the FT versions for years, these look...

Amen.

Han shot first, the "force" is not a blood infection, and Boba Fett was killed in ROTJ. I don't care what disney or Lucas say after the fact. They can both take a flying leap off space mountain.

If you could make money teasing shit that nobody can actually buy, Mattel would have all the dollars.

Maybe, but you know those are ridiculously rare instances. The news like to make us think that's the majority of "toy gun cases", but in reality, cops typically refrain from shooting children at all cost.

Like Terminator and Alien figures before him, this does nothing for me, but I suspect it'll definitely excite some collectors. I might be able to make use of that harness though...
