Right? How does that even happen? :rolleyes: I'm telling you, somebody from the C suite's "so talented" niece or nephew got hired into the art department at Hasbro and wants to display his/her talents and seems to have little respect for the original artwork. And, due to their affiliation, the...

The next issues have dropped digitally for both Joe comics. My impressions of both: ARAH #331 - Not sure if I just haven’t been paying enough attention or what, but I found the artwork of this issue to be really really good. They do a great job of capturing the characters and vehicles with...

It definitely is. I'm blessed to be able to do cool things in cool places from time to time, and most of the time without being overly pressed, thanks to a "work smarter, not harder" approach to production. But I would love to make the living I make and still have that much time (as well as...

Lol, please don't apologize for not having enough spare time to create and troubleshoot an "it would be really cool if we had a..." project like this. I'm probably actually even more excited to see some of your other vintage vehicles and such in dioramic pictures than I am for this one...

Are you sure you don't want to be the next Gridiron Studios, but specializing in lifelike miniature effects (in all your spare time :LOL:) ?

Rock on! That's a simple but brilliant solution. How about the launcher itself? Is there enough mass there to manage the cantilever?

Looking good! How does the launcher handle the weight when the missile/trail is closer to horizontal? In other news, digital renders: https://toynewsi.com/278-65685 Looks like Jinx saw "Fierce" NF Scarlett baring shoulders and said, "Hold my beer." Not sure that's the most practical ninja...

A couple better images have surfaced: https://toynewsi.com/278-65577 Apparently Jinx has purple highlights to match the pants. Otherwise the head looks better that the original. I'll have to wait and see how it looks when the head hits Mercari a few months from now and try to determine whether...

This leaked image just showed up: https://toynewsi.com/278-65556 Will wait for a better pic to say for sure, but I'm pretty confident that I definitely won't be replacing the current Jinx (entirely) with this one. Maybe just the head as this one doesn't look quite as butch, but the rest of the...

Those look great! Of course I was also distracted by the nostalgia overload of how perfect those vehicles in the background match the originals. Truly amazing! :thumbsup:

You'd think that history would tell them that the path to take would not be the one that collapsed interest in the line originally - weirdness, inferior neon-colored repaints and Eco-themed sub-teams. What's next, motorized oversized spring-loaded squirt guns? 😝 I wonder though if they feel...

Yeah, I definitely don't get it, but some folks are really into that Sunbow nostalgia I guess, or maybe they are hoping to cash in on someone else's nostalgia. 🤷‍♂️ Pulse almost had me with their recent sale. I've come close to pulling the trigger on it a couple times for an additional Legacy...

I think the big takeaway here is that 1:12 scale - Everybody's doing it... :LOL:

Reviving a long dead zombie thread for this, but I just found out that Acid Rain is apparently making 1:12 scale figures now. Yeah I know, I'm probably way late to this particular information, but it makes me wonder, is 1:12 the new master scale? This makes Joe, SW, Marvel, Vala, Monster(?)...

Came into a little play money so I locked in Flash and (re)locked in "rugged" Duke, at AMZ this time. I was very close to pulling the trigger on the remaining Renegades, but couldn't get myself to pay $57 (down from $60!) for these second tier characters. Sarge and Mercer went lower so I think...

Yeah, as per usual, I like my characters closer to "realistic." That's why I gravitated to Joe some 40 odd years ago and that's why I still choose it over Marvel, MotU, SW, TF, etc. Even with my video game choices, I've always preferred the more "real world accurate" ones over the really far out...

I’ll eventually get Flash to open and likely try to get the others for wallpaper if they get cheap enough or if I come into enough play money. Right now I have plenty out in POs so I’ll be patient with these. I also ordered a spare set of legs from Cover Girl v.1 for Lara Croft. I’m hoping to...

So maybe there was something to AMZ having a technical issue before, or maybe they just opened it up again, but LC came available again(?) there so I PO’ed that one and cancelled my waitlisted PO at BBTS. No more waitlist uncertainty and saved the markup and shipping cost on an already...

I'm not super psyched that my BBTS order is now showing "waitlist." I really hope that they do the Hooded CC thing and offer a second PO right away, especially if it seems like scalpers were using bots to scoop up the PO's. I'd be more than happy to drop my more expensive "waitlist" order for a...

From what they said, the TM will not include a fig (I believe they said to help keep the cost lower) and Thrasher would be sold separately. I want to say I’ve seen at least one or two very good 3D printed TMs out there so you should be able to put that new equipment to work making a better one...
