I knew I couldn’t be the only one that found a good repurpose for these. I’m working on a 1:12 arcade right now. I missed out on that Xmen cabinet order window but I’ve got a few others already I’m customizing. Quote
Mommar Posted July 12, 2019 Posted July 12, 2019 Unfortunately I missed out on ALL of the cabinets I wanted. X-Men, Spider-Man, Captain America, Aliens versus Predator, Marvel vs Capcom. Quote
sh9000 Posted July 13, 2019 Author Posted July 13, 2019 I would have ordered more arcade cabinets in one order but they’re pretty expensive to begin with. Quote
Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) Okay video of Colossus and Juggernaut. Weird small video though. And he keeps smacking his lips after every time he speaks. And he gets lots of terms wrong. And he seems surprised that the Juggernaut figure is different. For a guy claiming to be excited about this release he sure didn't pay attention to a damn thing about it. Edited July 13, 2019 by Mommar Quote
Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Does anyone know how long it takes for Dorkside to ship individual figures from an assortment? I ordered an extra Cyke and Dazzler as a separate order and the full wave is already here in Albuquerque for delivery but the individual figures have not shipped yet. I’m asking because I realized when I ordered the X-Force wave I included two more separate Nightcrawlers with that order and I’m wondering if shipping will be held up because of that. Quote
sh9000 Posted July 13, 2019 Author Posted July 13, 2019 My order of the Vintage X-Men case and individuals all shipped from Dorkside already. Maybe they ship by order number and bulk of order. Quote
Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 If anybody wants some ideas how to pose their figures this guy could give you more than a few ideas. Quote
Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Gamestop has Wolvie/Hulk in stock now. https://www.gamestop.com/collectibles/toys/marvel-comics-80th-anniversary-legends-series-6-inch-scale-hulk-vs-wolverine-action-figure-2-pack/174782 Quote
Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Will Hulk be available online afterward or something? Quote
Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) Damn, HasbroPulse already shipped WWII Cap. Edited July 13, 2019 by Mommar Quote

It takes them forever. You will likely find them out in the wild before they ship them out. It seems they prioritize the case orders over individual orders. Quote

Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Standouts from the Retro wave are Cyclops. The metallic paint just looks great. And the effects parts are cool too. Even though I hate they didn't include just a normal head. Silver Samurai is pretty good looking and fun to pose though he's too short. And Dazzler, because they nailed her Outback look perfectly. Iceman is typically disappointing like he always is. Wolverine is a curiosity and a first but unless you were really into him during his initial Comics run/a Larry Hama fan he's completely uninteresting looking. And last, yeah yeah, I HATE white Storm. That will probably be everyone else' number one but you're wrong. Quote
sh9000 Posted July 13, 2019 Author Posted July 13, 2019 I’m going to put the alternate Cowboy Logan head onto Vintage Wolverine and pose him and Silver Samurai this way. Quote
Mommar Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Let me just add the sculpting for Storm's hair looks incredible but due to the volume of it she really needs a secondary head sculpt with the hair flowing backwards so you can put her in better flight poses. Quote

I tried ordering individual figures from the sasquatch and apocalypse wave when they were first announced, and gave up on them filling the orders. I also ordered Professor X when it first was listed on their site and it's still pending, so I won't be using them anymore. Quote

That’s not a good sign. Quote
Golden Arms Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 Storm looks fantastic! Great pose for wolverine. I just preordered that set from entertainment earth. Quote

Golden Arms Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 Good One!!! My brother had that game. I Could never beat Storm or Gambits stage. I picked up Silver Sable to use For Lilandra. I'm kicking myself for passing on Night thrasher. He looks awesome. Quote
Mommar Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) He hasn't posted Thor yet, huh? I'm genuinely concerned I won't be able to get that Cap figure. I've never been able to find an affordable Worthy Cap and never even saw a Binary version of Captain Marvel. Edited July 14, 2019 by Mommar Quote
Mommar Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 I'm seriously just going to buy two of those Thors and give my Figuarts Endgame Cap the second oversized Hammer because Hasbro made it impossible to find their own damn figure. Quote
lechuck Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 Got my Emma Frost. I must admit it feels nice to be one of the first to have a sought after figure. Haven't opened her up yet, but both head-sculpts look great with the long haired one being my preferred choice. IMO Hasbro should have just kept the abdomen area all black, because any positioning of the chest will make it look awkward. Quote
sh9000 Posted July 14, 2019 Author Posted July 14, 2019 Congrats. I can’t wait to get Emma Frost for free. Quote
