    Doctor Who - Spoilers!

    The last few years of nonsense woke & bad storytelling almost destroyed it. Chibnall is a writer and does well at that but should never have been allowed to become show runner. Thanks to his many mistakes made, the show reached its lowest viewership ever. Hopefully the damage is not irreparable...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    With few exceptions Who merch has always been pretty spendy. From what I hear it's an expensive license and the BBC keeps a tight leash. It's not as well known as Trek of course (except maybe in the UK) but in the 70s Baker era it hit pretty big in the US. But it was only in the 2005 reboot it...

    TOMY Prestige Select Die-cast 1/350 Scale Enterprise Replica

    Ok I'm good there at least. How is Ahsoka shaping up? Is it a worthy missing chapter that answers questions and brings about some new ideas? Is it well made? And perhaps most importantly is it a return to pre-trilogy form Lucas era (obviously without Lucas but modeled after his storytelling) and...

    TOMY Prestige Select Die-cast 1/350 Scale Enterprise Replica

    Do you need to have watched all of Rebels to understand Ahsoka? I only caught a few eps during the og run. Of course now I could probably binge the whole thing but that might necessitate going back to rewatch Clone Wars too and the idea makes me so tired 😆

    TOMY Prestige Select Die-cast 1/350 Scale Enterprise Replica

    Speaking of Diamond, I'm sure it's no contest in the lighting arena, but in terms of paint, DST seems at least a competent lower cost alternative for those without the horizontal shelf space. And much lighter in weight. Getting just the right display case or shelf to hold 30+ pounds of...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Agree but I'm not sure Nanjin would be interested. His passion is clearly delivering the nicest ever made 1:6 Trek from all series, but his business decision priorities are pretty eccentric. I get the impression he's not super interested in a longterm growth plan and Trek is the only thing on...

    TOMY Prestige Select Die-cast 1/350 Scale Enterprise Replica

    Are the bussard lights red-orange or straight red? Finicky question yes but. And more importantly, how visible is the rotation "blink"? Are the covers molded or painted? Otherwise looks quite nice. Not sure if $600 nice but what is these days and without something for scale hard to see the wow...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    I know for a fact that when warehouse finds are legit, they're collected together for an upcoming event. It only makes some degree of sense as that is proper marketing. Get the most impact and eyeballs on the product so it doesn't sit around making both the supposed "hot item" and company look...

    TOMY Prestige Select Die-cast 1/350 Scale Enterprise Replica

    Well looking a little better now but how much of that "grey" is just lighting? The pics in the update appeared more a hue of white. The gray gives it more character imo. Still, holding out to see how visible those nacelle bussard lights look. The paint and/or molding seems to be rather thick and...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Which angers me all the more, because as often as it's been used, it put the impression in people's minds that Covid is only ever an excuse used by businesses as a smokescreen and anyone even the legitimate who use it for actual health reasons are up to no good. Quite the bitter pill for the...

    I loved EB when they were around here, but sadly they were absorbed into Gamestop and the rest is history. Gamestop used to be OK too. From a certain point of view...

    Neca has universal monsters!!!

    Ah I see. I was going to go for two Frank's since these are in baggies not boxes, but wasn't sure how or IF you could order multiples on the same order. Just as well I guess. Been spending too much. Drac looks like another good, if generic, homage.

    Neca has universal monsters!!!

    Looks like the next crate is already up and it's vamp time! This system really confuses me. If you choose 3 crates are you getting 3 of the same crate or this and the next two? And either way, you're STILL on a subscription that charges every other month?

    Do you (or anyone else) know if you get dinged in conversion fees if the price is gbp? I know you can change it but on the surface it seems to be a little less if you just use the gbp currency. Not much but a little.

    Neca has universal monsters!!!

    How do the loot crates work? Do they announce what the featured item is each month before they ship or just the premiere issue? Thinking of signing up to an extended plan to get the set at discounted cost but don't want to get locked in if the rest of them are subpar releases or not even Neca...

    Has the September code been announced or is last months code still working?

    Speaking of MR do they regularly discount for their weekly drops or was the QMX / Bcs thing a liquidation anomaly? Have my eye on picking up a couple of the Eaglemoss

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    That honestly looks better than the BCS imo. Not that they were available when I looked, but had that been the Zavvi I would've been very tempted. As it is, not being afforded the chance at that particular rabbit hole, kinda glad and bummed at the same time.

    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    This right here. Too many people get caught up in personal feelings about an individual and don't appreciate the art they bring. I follow Mark Hamill on Twitter. The guy WILL NOT SHUT UP about his personal vendetta against Trump. Does that mean I hate everything he's done and will boycott Star...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    Although I too am anxious to see TWOK I'm also in no great hurry. This year has been VERY expensive if you collect this line let ALONE other lines. I know it's not a prequisite for companies to consider the financial needs of their buyers but that's not reality and the average buyer is NOT rich...
