  1. Okay, this video of Ryu from the showroom sold me. For some odd reason every other pic of him looked off but he looks totally correct right here. Also, Chun Li:
  2. This has always been my thought.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Given they've already made this toy in the form of the 30 there's zero reason to speculate that something won't hold together. These are there purely to keep a figure in a case that's always in danger of getting bumped to stay standing. I mean, unless Bandai just really screwed this release up.
  4. Doesn't matter to me. New Mexico is behind by at least three weeks when it comes to all of the Hasbro releases. I can't find the new Spider-Man wave either but every other person online has already found them at Toys R Us.
  5. Supposedly people have been finding the wave at Walmart.
  6. Hmm, I just realized that last one is MK VII, not VI. Seven was from the original Avengers movie, correct? It's six that they're remaking?
  7. I guarantee you Mk I will sell. Mk II is pretty much just a silver colored Mk 3 so that's an easy mold reuse for Bandai. Both were shown with the hall of armors so no surprise. Doctor Strange is unexpected IMO, though. I think that other Death Trooper is a commander type, or something. It's pretty much just a trooper without the crap on their shoulders or a bigger rifle. I absolutely don't care about Stormtrooper Finn or Old Han. Where were all of these photos taken?
  8. The Switch is supposed to be out in March 2017. People assumed Zelda would be ready with the system (and it should be too.)
  9. Everything about that photo looks squished/squat. Front, back and middle.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    It only looked that way in the final episode. Added black striping and the emblem make a big difference. How many will double dip for the second Hayate valk now? Or who is hoping to hold off until the inevitable second version is released?
  11. I saw piles of the various soldiers at Walmart and Toys R Us this past weekend but I decided to skip on them all. I'm not happy with how Hasbro has gimped their articulation, particularly in the arms. I'm just going to stick with the SHF figures.
  12. I just don't know. Chun Li looks fantastic but that Ryu looks really weak. Well, I went ahead and pre-orderd Ryu too. Chewie, Chun Li and Ryu for April. Hopefully. Either that or I'll be paying out a ton on individual shipping for each. lol
  13. I hope it isn't shaped like it is in that image there...

    Bandai DX VF-31

    The nose cone also doesn't look like it's fully transformed either. Any idea when Messer's Valk is going up for pre-order?
  15. I ordered the Sh Figuarts Hulk from them back in 2015. They were slow to ship and they charged a bunch for it but they came through for me.
  16. Obi-Wan, Raph and IM MK3 showed up today. Raph and Obi-Wan are a bit disappointing really. Raph's sai look great but his hands aren't really designed to hold them any other way than by the handle. You can wedge the blade and hand guards through the fingers but it's worrisome that the plastic on the sai might be forced. Also, it's becoming glaringly obvious the hip articulation on the Turtles is designed poorly. They all look like they're standing the same. I'm wondering if I have a defective Obi-Wan. His neck keeps being forced forward and it's hard to even have him look straight. His right arm pops off at the shoulder, and barely moves at all on either side so any sort of cross body swinging motions don't really work. Is anybody else' thigh swivel almost impossible to use as well? It won't budge at all. To top it off the hole for the lightsaber holding hand is at such a severe angle it's almost impossible to put the hand on. I really don't know why they made the hole they way they did, you can already use the ball joint at the wrist to get good angled motion. My Black Series Jedi Luke can hold a lightsaber two handed better than this Obi-Wan figure can. Iron Man Mk3 is my favorite suit design and this toy is KILLER! Posing it is awesome. The colors look great. The red is a nice deep metallic color. It just looks fricking fantastic. I'm so happy Bandai finally made this one. There's one glaring omission, the large bumps on the forearms where he stores missiles. It almost looks like you could pop those off but there are no little missile attachments in the box. It's an iconic scene from the first movie, why leave that out when it's an obvious feature of the suit? Anyway, buy the Mk 3.

    Interesting experiment. The second one looks more balanced color-wise to me.
  18. Broly was about nine inches. I don't know what a "normal" body character would be. They're all about the same size unless they have some sort of goofy headdress that makes them taller like Cell, maybe. Raphael, Iron Man Mk 3 and Obi-wan are all sitting on the porch waiting for me to get home.
