    I still don't do Mafex unless I absolutely have to like Kingsman or the rest of the live action Justice League, still too many issues and the price creep is absolutely insane. Figuarts Black Widow movie Widow and Taskmaster, I'm in for at least Taskmaster, not sure about Widow, probably a pass, I have enough Figuarts Widow figures. All that said, I find the lack of Red Guardian quite disturbing, gotta wonder if Bandai is going to even bother, or make him a TWE item.

    I finished my second full season 1 binge last night, pretty damn fantastic first season like I said when it first came out, very solid effects, there must've been a pretty solid budget for the first season. I'm now officially more hyped to start season 2 tonight! I took a vacation day tomorrow so I can enjoy some figures that came in and chill and watch season 2, I also hit my butcher up and grabbed a few monster tomahawk ribeyes, gonna have a very chill and relaxed Friday.

    Of course not! How else is Bandai going to sell a Final Battle Thanos figure in the coming months? I kid, but not really. Agreed on the third party accessories though, the Tony head for Bandai doesn't look as good as the one I'm getting, with a nano gauntlet that lights up for MK85, from NOTA Studios, they killed it with the hammer and shield for Cap so I'm excited to get my MK85 parts in.

    I just don't get these Gomez mascot figures at all, they've all been easy passes, they never look like any special beyond the admittedly solid accessory count they always seem to get, not being licensed they always seem to get a good number of cool accessories per release. I need Ghost Rider and Freeze like frakking yesterday, they both look fantastic. Also, a Martian Manhunter would be nice, and that "modern" Mezco Wonder Woman in the more armored look, I need to finish off my Mezco Big 6 now that Hal Jordan is FINALLY on the way.

    HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hype levels are through the roof for me on this, Monster Hunter is undoubtedly one of my all time favorite video game franchises, across 6 different games now, I've logged in well over 4,000 hours. This is a collaboration I only dreamed about, the only other monsters we've gotten in toy form that were articulated were the old Revo/Yamaguchi monsters, and they only did three monsters and some repaints. I am absolutely, 100% in on this line, every figure, every subspecies and variant, every exclusive and whatever else they come up with, I need everything in this line period. This is incredible news, MonsterArts has knocked all of their Godzilla and Gamera stuff out of the park IMO, I absolutely can not wait to see what will inevitably be their first release, Rathalos, in beautiful figure form, I can't wait, I'm so excited.

    Why does this new little Earth Rise of whatever Arcee have a far superior chest and head sculpt to the expensive "Masterpiece" MP-51? That's crazy. This isn't third party vs Takara, this is all Takara, and the cheaper mainline figure looks better then the collector grade Masterpiece figure. Obviously the MP looks much better in some areas, far superior alt mode of course, but I'm honestly hard pressed to say it has a better robot mode.

    I'm all Figuarts so I have had an extra Hall for well over a year but have been waiting on this, the Revoltech looked decent but not good enough, and I don't mix lines. I'm still baffled it took this long, the Iron Man 2 Hall setup has been complete minus this single armor for, once again, well over a year, crazy, but glad they are completing the full Iron Man 2 scene.
  8. Tking22
    Good lord, this thing is FINALLY getting released! Way to make people wait Bandai, literally Tony's first armor, and they wait until he's dead in the MCU to let everyone finish their Hall of Armor setups. Nothing firm for release, just 2020. S.H.Figuarts Iron Man mk I Release Date: 2020

    I went and saw Shazam, Aquaman, and Wonder Woman in theaters, but those looked like fun, Birds of Prey just didn't look like much fun from the first trailer. I really liked Margot as Harley too, she was one of the only decent parts of Suicide Squad, I'll catch this on HBO eventually. Friends who saw it liked it for the most part, at minimum they said it was better than Suicide Squad, at worst, some said it was as middling as BvS.

    Damn, that looks pretty good, I think I need it. The Lego Baby Yoda is pretty damn cute too, plus Lego Carl Weathers? Yup, I need this,

    This. I wasn't really trying to be a dick, but his comment came off as vague and a bit confused, like he missed some things or didn't pay attention at certain parts, it's all spelled out pretty clearly by the end, and I think the writing is pretty good for what it is. Having no familiarity with the source, it was a pretty great season and I'm ready for more. That's also why it seemed odd that Dynaman immediately formed his opinion on this show based on that one, once again quite vague and maybe misguided or confused, comment.

    I had the choice with some friends between this and Sonic, we did Sonic, it was pretty fun. I do think the interest was just really low for this one, coming off the steaming pile that was Suicide Squad, I'm not too surprised, though I've read this is much better then that.
  13. Tking22
    It's inaccurate, happy? Seems odd to completely shut out a show due to a single vague comment, despite this very thread having numerous comments of praise for the show, and the show has an overall very positive critical perception, but you do you.
  14. Tking22
    Have you actually watched Locke and Key? It's far superior to anything Walking Dead has done, maybe actually watch it first before comparing the two.
  15. Tking22
    I have an old MonsterArts Predator and that's enough for me, pass on this, I don't really do Predator or Alien stuff.

    It's fantastic! I'm not familiar with the source material at all, but it's a really great series, fun, smart, I'm loving it. Only 6 in and I plan on finishing the rest off tonight, really awesome new series.
  18. Tking22
    Looks okay, but I just don't think Predator multiplayer games work. These multiplayer based Predator games always end up about the same, one player gets to play the awesome Predator, then everybody else gets stuck playing in some super generic third or first person shooter, while getting killed by a Predator.

    Definitely loving the series so far, but there's no denying it's falling into some of the worst reality TV trappings, there's always gotta be some drama :(. That said, it's really not that egregious, there's always gotta be the one team that's new and just doesn't perfectly mesh like the others, and there's always gotta be the dramatic pauses and commercial moments when they argue :). Definitely an interesting build last night, lots of cool ideas, as M'Kyuun mentioned above, the husband and wife combo is really impressing me, they don't come out of the gate as quick as the rest, but they have made some cool stuff and always pull through on the final lap. That tentacle monster was impressive, and the little bomb they built did just as they had hoped, well done.

    I pre-ordered one, I'm in for any and all Batman rouges. I would love for that Mister Freeze we saw to get an official pre-order, that thing looked amazing. Honestly? I'd be in for that sweet looking Batmobile Mezco showed off too.

    I don't want an MP Arcee, anything beyond season 1 is honestly a pass for me, keeps things simple. That said, I'd totally go with MMC if I wanted one, easy pass on FansToys and Takara. The MMC may not be as toon accurate in alt mode, but I can care less, it looks far superior in bot mode. The Takara is honestly quite bad looking IMO, the backpack is next level, even for Arcee, the face is really off, and the chest looks terrible, nice alt mode though I guess. Totally in for Tigatron, Beast Wars is my jam and will always be far more important then G1, which I did not grow up with, I was a nineties kid. Tigatron is far more then an over-sized Cheetor, to be accurate at least. To be accurate, he will clearly require a hefty amount of new molding, obviously some bits here and there from Cheetor can be used but not as many as some would expect or imply. Honestly though? Even though I'm in for Tigatron, he wasn't very high on my want list, I was hoping for Rhinox or a damn Predacon.

    Looks great, I'm in. Batman has always had a fantastic rogues gallery, and your list is missing The Riddler, I need me a good Riddler. Ed Nygma has always been a favorite of mine, not entirely sure why, he's never really been that interesting or successful really, I've just always dug Nygma as a villain, too smart for his own good, but clearly not smart enough.

    I don't do Legends at all so that's not a factor for me. Parts of the sculpt look better, agreed, some parts worse, but once again, $80+ is pretty well above the standard Figuarts price these days, also based on these photos, he might not come with a broken shield either. It's still too little too late for me, Mafex puts out there movie stuff far too late for me to ever consider any of it. Either way, I'm plenty happy with my Figuarts, Mafex still has too many duds these days in the QC department too, not worth the gamble, more-so considering I still like my Figuarts figures just fine. I know I said I have enough 6" Batman figures, but I'm in for the blue DKR Batman and DKR Joker too, those look good. One thing Bandai never seemed to get on board with is comic based stuff, they only seem to bother with live action.
  24. Tking22
    That's a good looking Batman but I've got far too many roughly 1/12 6" Batman figures, so I'll have to pass. Now that Joker is announced, I'll be buying in on him and Dark Knight Returns Batman, they both look good, and that particular iteration of The Joker is a bit of a unicorn, not a lot of good figure options for that version of the Clown Prince. Easy pass on the Endgame stuff, none of that looks better then the Bandai Figuarts to me, Far From Home Night Monkey included. Also, knowing Mafex's current pricing, $80+ each easy, too little too late for the MCU stuff once again.

    It's been so long since the first season I forgot what happened and how it ended. Oh well, guess I'll have to watch it again. I knew there were books, but I haven't checked them out, all I read was that the author is a bit of an assclown. Anthony Mackie for season 2? I'm in. Poor Takeshi, when will he get his original body back?
