I think if you’re a stickler for not getting 3rd party figures and only want premium/the best/whatever, I think this is a good get. …on the other hand, SooSoo had a helluva value with the “Gentlemoon”. I paid about $180 on Giantoy for all the accessories, the extra headsculpt, plus that shirt...

He did, indeed. I think this was in Episode 5 or 6. The flashback/origin scene from Episode 5.

One of the first times Venom were/was offered by Medicom in 1/6 scale… ..,not bad despite the goofy-looking tongue head and being built like Chris Bumstead 😄. This is probably what a HONŌ version would look like, but the CMS version “clears”, as the kids like to say.

I’d say all variations on a theme are a possibility, for better or worse: No-Helmet Classic Iron Man. Stealth Suit Iron Man. Flowing Locks Magneto w/ the “Big M” Costume. Unmasked Peter Parker in the Symbiote Suit. This announcement has probably (definitely?) soured some people’s interest in...

Yeah, these are great! They remind me of the illustrations “X-Men 97” Director Chase Conley did a few years ago 🔥

So, I pulled some X-Men Animated Series images off the Web, out of curiosity.., If you put this headsculpt on the first release you’d get the “Tom Holland Turtleneck”, which I guess is acceptable…? …but we’re basically getting this, although not as charming (and sans toothpick)This is also a...

My immediate reaction was “Wtf, whyyy?!” because I just got my Tiger Stripe in last week. It’s a VERY weird (or blatantly cheap?) decision, but it’s whatever. …I also wonder what the delay is on Thor. It was the third character teased in the line (and a prototype has been displayed) but 4 other...

This reminds me of when all the fast food restaurants had to release their own version of the “Chicken Sandwich”. Hot Toys apparently decided to put theirs on a Pretzel bun with Romaine lettuce and (Exclusive) Honey Dijon sauce. I can’t decide if I should sell my S-Hero version for this or see...

The evolution of Magneto in Sixth Scale: plain pajamas, purple panel piping to padded pectorals and beyond. Pick your poison (or preference). 🧲👋

Quoting myself from the HONŌ Wolverine thread to say that my fears can be put to rest; Magneto looks like he’ll tower over Wolverine!

Ya know, if I didn’t already have the Sideshow version I’d get the HONÕ version. As flimsy as the SS body is (and that belt, good grief) it cuts a more imposing silhouette, more “stoic”, I suppose. There are things I like about this over Sideshow’s and vice versa. -The Present Toys version is...

Quick bump in the name of DOOM. Just got this in today…and this was the only issue straight out of the box, the dreaded cape clasp. It’s definitely not as much of a disaster as I was thinking, thankfully. I’ll still have to “futz around and find out” how to get the armor straight and not break...

Guys, I had a mildly disturbing thought about all of this… What if 11.2” IS the standard height for these figures going forward? 😳. Can you imagine the Thor being the same height as Wolverine or Magneto being as tall as your average HT Black Widow? I do wonder if HONŌ will use a variety of body...

HONŌ Studios Dark Knight Joker coming soon, for sure 😄😜

This part about HONŌ’s little mission statement stood out to me: “Rather than definite adherence to on-screen likenesses, the team in HONŌ Studio pursues a path of playfulness and novelty in their works..” To me, this means none of the “likeness is off/needs work” debates we get into on these...

There are some things I like about this one over Sideshow’s and vice versa (maybe the blue bikini briefs are throwing me off 😄). …also, I don’t know if anyone’s mentioned this, but peep the silhouettes in the background 👀

Also, my curiosity compelled me to look up a “Custom Dr. Doom” and found this: This was from about 2 years ago and this guy was charging $700; apparently came with the “blast effects”, extra hands, etc.

So…I watched that same review last night and I could not believe it 😳. I thought I had clicked on a Headless Horseman review by mistake, but no, it was S-Hero’s Doom Monarch! It’s crazy that any figure from any company could be released with such a high risk of it falling apart as soon as you...

On S-Hero’s Instagram they did say, “What you see is what you get.” No kidding 😄

It’s cool, but…not at the same time? A hodgepodge mixed with a mirage, like leftover bits of all the previous Spideys rolled into one. Yeah, I think I’ll also be keeping my PS4 Classic Suit for a little while longer.
