    Marvel Legends

    At SDCC, there is also a pic of Squirrel Girl, Shang-Chi, and Cosmic Ghost Rider. SG and CGR are hard passes, but Shang-Chi is basically Quick-Kick with red pants. Suddenly, making his red sash will be the hardest part of customizing that guy. It'll almost be too easy, pilgrim. The...

    My sincerest hope is that after we get every character from the '82-'84 era of MOTU, that mattel has to liquidate divisions to stay afloat and hasbro buys mega. Not the rest of mattel, because ewww, just mega.

    Well, MOTU is going to be blowing up next year, assuming Mattel survives. Per PixelDan:

    True. While their figures were shit, losing the DC license is a big blow. Their presence in the boy isle is down to WWE and Hotwheels. Compared to Hasbro having SW, Marvel, and TF.... even when those franchises are in a lull, they're still drinking Mattel's milkshake.

    Aside from Greyskull (which retails for $250), I have seen every Mega MOTU SKU in the wild no less than a dozen times. Finding them has been one of the easiest lines to collect so far, IMO. I don't know where I'll put all of it, but I'll buy it. We've been beating this drum forever. It's...

    Takara Transformers

    I get the appeal, I get that they're going to be worth a small fortune when released, and I *should* be the target market for this. But..... I simply can't make myself care. It's just one more thing my kids would have to f#$% with when I die.

    As dawn creeps in on Eternia, the Avengers attempt to escape to their ship from Prison Greyskull, guarded by Sentinels and Angry Pigs. Meanwhile, the Friends' Heartlake Hotel is being overrun by zombies...

    Agree 100%... although a close second would be a 6" Joe line, a la Marvel Legends.

    My Joes? I posted a bunch of pics in this thread. https://www.fighting118th.com/forum/threads/mega-bloks-militia.9424/ And I always update my custom stuff here. http://teletraanone.com/index.php/category/mega-bloks/

    So... the boy is a wizard. He started thursday morning and finished this beast on friday afternoon, watching the 200x MOTU cartoon the whole time. That's with his mom making him stop to do math workbooks and summer-reading. And I made him go to bed on time. He has a knack for these things...

    Very nice! The boy opened up mine tonight. I expect to come home and find it half-finished tomorrow evening. Does it fold up like the original, or is it permanently fixed as a right angle?

    Anybody still collecting SW on here?

    The Royal Guard made sense being all red, as they were largely ornamental and never acted as field troops. They could get away with being garish and "fancy" (I'm sure that's how Palpatine would describe them ;) ). On the other hand, red storm troopers seems like an incredibly poor choice from...

    Takara Transformers

    I love it when Ironhide sees Red Alert on the screen with Starscream. "What's that little f#$%er doing now?!" :ROFLMAO:

    Nothing new here, but I saw this oldie-but-goodie and it reminded me why I hate season 2 characters. So stupid. :laugh:

    I still think Onwu was an inside job, somebody bored at work. There was no way Onwu was a real person.

    Yeah, it's tough with these big sets. If you wait, especailly with TRU gone, they get scarce in a hurry and then you miss out, or you pay third party markup. If you bite the bullet right away and pay retail, they sell for half price six months later. I would have swallowed hard and paid full...

    Nice. Mine should arrive monday. Gamestop has a 25% off collectables promo going on right now (through today), got Greyskull in the door for $205. Couldn't pass that up, so I cancelled at BBTS. I might get the boy to build it for me. While he cares nothing about MOTU, he loves legos and...

    HAPPY 10TH INDEPENDENCE DAY!

    10 years... my youngest was just born when we started this thing, and she's about to start 5th grade. Damn I feel old. But on the other hand, I'm really proud that we're still here. Oh sure, I could go bicker about toys on tfw or complain about politics on some boring website like the rest of...
