    Furiosa (May 24, 2024)

    Finally saw this movie yesterday. Was my most anticipated summer movie. A few nits: What was up with Helmsworth's fake nose, and why was it even necessary? I kept on expecting Helmsworth to turn into Thor and he never did, which was great, but I wish they explored the character's motivations...

    TBLeague PL2023-220 1/6 Scale Medusa

    I got the angry version and I think the paint apps on the head are amazing. Snake base as well

    Collection End Game?

    While no one in this thread specifically mentioned it, the idea of a collection tapering off to no new acquisitions over time seems like a real possibility. In 20 years, I will be in my 70's and no way will be collecting more of these stupid things. But I can continue to enjoy what I have. Not...

    Ever feel "forced" to buy a figure?

    ^ amazing post! I quit collecting for 10 years as well. Eventually transitioned from carded McFarlane figures to 1/6 Hot Toys. Now my collection is 10x the size of my previous collection; it fills my entire basement. I also agree with "in the air" purchases. I have a bad habit of buying...

    Ever feel "forced" to buy a figure?

    Or maybe I should have titled this thread "I don't need it, but my collection needs it". I am not really talking about being a completist, but rather encountering figures that for one reason or another "should" be in your collection. I can think of two recent examples: Ruthless Blade: When the...

    Waaaack - Quaaaaack! Take my money!

    1/6 Hot Toys - Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness - Scarlet Witch Figure

    i thought this figure turned out pretty good. My first and last figure of this character. As mentioned above, PERS would have added a bit more to this figure. I found her hard to pose in a levitated state, but the details are excellent. Her face is really pale and a bit shiny

    1/6 Hot Toys - Loki - God Loki Figure (Artisan Edition & Regular Sculpted)

    I gotta say these green strings look pretty silly. In the figure he is only holding segments of time, not the whole string

    1/6 Hot Toys - Loki - God Loki Figure (Artisan Edition & Regular Sculpted)

    I think this is an excellent example that the endtimes are truly upon us. I also think this is my 4th or 5th Loki figure, which is also embarrassing.

    1/6 Hot Toys - Loki - God Loki Figure (Artisan Edition & Regular Sculpted)

    Wow, didn't know I was going to preorder this figure when I woke up this morning. I also had the issue with the payment plan, but I have ben able to retroactively apply the payment plan after the deposit is credited on previous orders, so I went with the full plan for this for now.

    Hot Toys C-3PO (ROTJ)

    You are right! Not oppressive at all. In fact, I may add some more, like oil dripping from his restraining bolt. I think this is a very well done release, just a few years too late. A bit surprised at his lack of articulation, but after seeing this character in 9 films, I should know his body...

    1/6 Hot Toys Luke Skywalker - Dark Empire (Legends)

    This reminds me of Dr. Strange in Iron Man armor. Does not compute

    What figure do you regret passing on the most?

    I have had this happen to me three times this year: I procrastinated on a purchase, weighing my options, then finally bit the bullet and bought it (usually a big ticket item). Then I found out I bought the last one that retailer had. That is a pretty satisfying feeling to vanquish FOMO. Or at...

    The Prisoner Retro Style Action Figures - Wave No.2

    One of my favorite shows and I am surprised it hasn't been rebooted yet. This is an amazing effort, but I am married to 1/6 scale, so this is a no-go for me

    Executive Replicas 2001 Space Odyssey Astronauts

    I caved and ordered this, as I could envision my display of the 6 suits I have flanking this piece in a brightly lit diorama. Diorama to begin construction at some point. When I have more display space. Anyway, ordered from BBTS as they only had $4 shipping. Looks like I was the last to preorder...

    yep, got my notice too. Finally! This will be my first and last 3p0

    What figure do you regret passing on the most?

    For me, it was not passing on the figures per se, but I got into collecting Black 13 Park figures too late to buy them at retail, so if I wanted them in my collection, I had to pay inflated ebay prices as well as outrageous shipping prices. Now I am really into Samurai figures, and the same...
