Yeah, I’m smarting a little from the cost but I did go ahead and preorder two.

They’re better quality when compared with Joytoy or acid rain figures. I’ve not had any issues with figures joints snapping right out of the box and I haven’t had to give them a “hot” shower to manipulate the figures. The paint application is pretty good too. That being said it still smarts to pay that much for a figure.

The last time I checked on eBay they were astronomical (150-200 dollars) 😐🫤 I was thinking about selling mine when I saw the stupid prices. I’ve opened up a couple and they are the best quality and best looking figures of any I’ve ever bought. I was disappointed that the astronauts and male figures were not produced originally so when I saw these I wanted at least two for my collection. I’m hoping they are well made like the females and fit in with marauders figures. To be honest, after I get my Vietnam Kickstarter figures from marauders I’m going to take a break from buying anything new and focus on customizing what I already have.

Lol, if you have any children getting ready for college you could pay off at least two semesters 😉

Been there before and fortunately we survived it. All of our kids went to a private school out of state and it was cheaper than going in our own state. Go figure.

I have several of the females that they put out a couple of years ago, but I have to admit that I haven't opened any of them. They look great though. Are they really worth the money?
They are worth $100 to $250 bucks depending on which ones you have !

I have this one in hand as of today and so far the other figure still hasn’t arrived at bbts. Looks great like their other figures but I’ll have to wait to unpack it for photos later because my back hurts and my brain is fried from my part time job sitting down at the computer and phone all day 🫤6838C5D7-6A34-4D30-BD7D-4BED0589F4AD.jpeg

This is a great figure, very robust joints (I still gave him a warm water bath before trying to move anything) The vest is one of the easiest to fasten on a figure.

Here’s a new PGV figure, “Kelly” from the orient. I found it on AliExpress. The head is new with the same body and equipment we’ve seen before. I like the uniformness of their figures and my collection is starting to grow as they tempt me with new faces. The vests on these things are silly easy to secure and the figure seems very robust and not likely to break with normal use. This comes in handy when the grandkids play war with the nerf missiles and knock them down.

I had to look back in my old emails to remind me which figures I had ordered... but apparently I bought:
"Lin"
"Amy"
"Virginie"
"Mind Controller"
and a blank female body

I seem to recall some got sent, some got canceled, some got massively delayed.... I still have "Virginie" in my desk drawer here at work. It showed up so long after I ordered... like six years, I had completely forgotten about it.

Still haven't messed with them, but since I recently unearthed my 1:18th collection and all the custom parts I'd ordered over the years from various casters and such, maybe I'll finally get around to enjoying them!

EDIT: based on emails, I think "Lin" was the one that never got produced. I think I received the other four. But I have an email from BFS.... from last year... asking what to do about the final figure. I guess I should respond :unsure:

I’m bad about leaving stuff in the “pile of loot” section of BBTS. After reading your comments just now, I logged into my account there and the four bfs Roman legionnaires I’ve been waiting on were just sitting there getting dusty and wondering what happened. 😉

Behind a camera watching you!
I used to leave a lot of stuff in the pile of loot waiting for that one thing to finally deliver (but is constantly delayed)

I decided to just minimize the time in PoL or else I’m forgetting about whatever crap i bought while it was on sale.

Yeah, same here... I'd leave stuff in the PoL so long that half of it would go on sale, and I'd end up canceling and reordering. Of course they put a stop to that, only allowing you to cancel for two weeks... and I can't blame them.

And I'd still leave stuff in the pile forever just to save on shipping, but now that it's $4, I don't mind shipping every 4-6wks. And they make you ship every 90 days anyway. I used to get these massive boxes, and now they're staggeringly smaller. But it is nice to not completely lose interest in something before you get it in hand.

Oh, and BFS told me I can still get a credit for that figure that got canceled... Holy smoke, Obama was still president when I placed that order!
