Or the finger joints falling apart? Man this thread has become a mess to read through with all the photobucket images broken No issues really. Some parts seem to be made to come off easily but just as easily put back. I think the antenna on the backpack was the main thing that fell off. Not unexpected for such a thin figure with that much articulation though. And yeah, that Photobucket thing is a CF...I'm still pretty pissed about that.

ZorClone Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 Finally getting around to a few pics of my most recent arrivals. Featuring: SHF The Dark Knight (love the cape), Figma Link, GTP Space Walls (omg I need more of these already), tiny Titanium Series BSG ships to go along with my Moebius Galactica (finally got a Colonial One, still looking for a deal on a Raptor), and some SW Ep2 Figuarts (Obi-Wan's blade plopped off the hilt when I was posing it, grr. And holy hell those droids are touchy with arms and hands falling off) @enphily Grats on the PG Red Astray! I loved building mine and it's really well engineered and sturdy. And it looks awesome with the NX Edge SD version @Lolicon Glad to hear you're ok! I'm a Houston resident but luckily had no flooding or damage. Hoping that any of our members that are in the path of Irma will be ok! Play it safe and get the heck out of there. Trust me, being without power, internet, food, gas, working toilets, etc for a week or more is not fun. Not to mention all the places you take for granted that are open day to day being closed for who knows how long or having limited hours and limited supplies..

Not to mention all the places you take for granted that are open day to day being closed for who knows how long or having limited hours and limited supplies.. The new stuff looks great! It almost makes me want to go and buy some Star Wars SHF toys despite not being a big Star Wars fan. But I really like that Galactica! Did you build it yourself? Glad you're alright too. No flooding or and real damage where I live, though I did have to live at the hospital for a few days straight during the week of Harvey. The worst part of Harvey was sleeping on a stretcher and having to eat hospital food. On that note, UPS finally delivered my Mark 46 after a 12 day delay! The Bandai Iron Man figures are usually pretty solid, but their Mark 46 was a floppy mess that looked all wrong, so I'm glad to finally have a proper version of it!

ZorClone Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 Nope, the Galactica was the pre-built edition. I'm assuming you were staying at the hospital because you work there? I swear I will never get the image of Beltway 8 near Memorial outa my head. It's just like the Highway 59 corridor that turned into a river during Allison.

It's the Hot Toys version. I'm usually good with the Figuarts versions, but the SHF Mark 46 was such a letdown that I got the big boy version.

So it was the Hot Toys version. You know what, I would really love to have all the armors in Hot Toys but it's so damn expensive now. Imagine the first Hot Toys Iron Man figure that I bought from them which is Mark 6, it wasn't even $200 for the item itself and now they kind of re-releasing it with diecast content. So I ended up with Figuarts. Smaller and cheaper.

Slave IV Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 My first Last Jedi figure: It's alright. Looking forward to the SHF version.
spanner Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 This arrived today! AUTOart Mad Max Falcon XB Interceptor.

Isn't that just the newly released AutoArt Falcon Interceptor? Not the Mad Max version? I have the older AutoArt Mad Max Interceptor with the dog and the extra dirt and mud paint apps, that looks quite a bit different from this.

Technically yes but it's still the Mad Max 1 movie car without the MFP markings.. AUTOart just wasn't able to market it as the MadMax interceptor due to rights issues. So I believe. Still it is the actual car.
sh9000 Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 I can't wait for mohawk Storm and the rest of the X-Men wave.

Tking22 Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Got a few more things in from HLJ, NY, and BBTS. I should have got at least two Tyrant Labors, they are REALLY neat figures. Qui-Gon is great, standard Jedi robe Figuart stuff, but with a Liam Neeson face. Two more Figuarts Hall of Armor sets, making 5 total, six when BBTS gets in my MK II and Hall set. I FINALLY got my hands on a Masterpiece Huffer, BadCube delivers once again with another fantastic MP mini-bot, these things are top notch, Takara will have to do something special to make me even consider their versions a decade from now when they get to them... Roy/Arsenal to go with Ollie, beautiful release, his bow is easier to draw then the one that came with Green Arrow, which is nice. Hannibal is what I've been waiting on, I love Silence of the Lambs as much as the next guy, Anthony Hopkins was my first exposure to Hannibal and Red Dragon as well, but the Mads Mikkelsen TV series went above and beyond in my opinion, it was brilliant, and far too good for how it was treated.

anubis20 Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Got Figuarts Gaara and the MB F91 Option Parts set thanks to @davidwhangchoi
ZorClone Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Arrgghhh I wish I'd preordered that Qui-Gon Jinn. Now the price on it is double! If anyone picks up an extra they don't want and is willing to sell it for something near MSRP, hollar at me

ScrambledValkyrie Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 Hallmark's doing G1 TF ornaments now? He looks just like a miniature of the original! Does it actually transform?

I always preferred the car from the first movie. I did have the Mad Max 2 car but it never satisfied me enough to keep it considering how much I wanted the original. I bought it directly from the AUTOart website and the postage was super cheap and lightning fast! Arrived in less than 72 hours! I highly recommend any movie car lover to add it to their collection!
