    1/6 Hot Toys - BvS: Dawn of Justice - Batman

    My local comic shop said he did not come in yet while I was picking up Supes today. Maybe check that route. I too waited and missed the boat with the online retailers. I got the last Superman at my shop. They said they did not order many as they still had a supply of Man of Steel Super sitting...

    1/6th Scale IG-88 Figure LINK IN 1ST POST!

    I heard they are changing their name from Sideshow Collectibles to Sideshow Stuff. Sorry at their prices and production they are no longer collectibles. Say what you want about resale value, college funds, flipping for a profit....Sideshow was something else before. I am all for another IG-88...

    1/6th Scale IG-88 Figure LINK IN 1ST POST!

    Pretty much sadly sums up what Sideshow has become as a company in the 1/6 world... Bottom feeders. Vader, Boba Fett, re-released to capitalize on the hot selling Original Trilogy Hot Toys. It is really sad as someone who was buying their stuff day one. They have just priced themselves out of...

    1/6 Sideshow 1:6 Indiana Jones - Temple of Doom

    TOD lid was much smaller and a completely different bash from Raiders. This lid looks silly and even too big for Raiders. Sideshow is not even trying. They have no QC with their factory. This should never have been approved for production. Canceled day 1 preorder with no deposit. The prototype...

    Sideshow 1/6 C-3PO

    My thought on the issue too. Sideshow needs to replace the hands. One of the thumbs on mine is loose, it looks better, but my obsessive compulsion would prefer a factory fix for what we paid. This coupled with the Beetlejuice figure prototype and pricing is turning people off them right now...

    Sideshow 1/6 C-3PO

    I could not live with it so had to do the mod by opening the hands also. I tried the twist first but the hands were separating, so I figured I may as well open them up. I guess it depends on how much glue was used inside. I am much more happy with the figure, but still annoyed with Sideshow...

    Hot Toys MMS- Mark XV Sneaky 1/6 Iron Man Collectible Figure

    Just ugly from so many angles...less is more with pics on this one. The hips, calves, shoulders all look wonky. I like the head but easy pass on this one. Hammerhead is the only one I will still cough up for.

    Sideshow 1/6 C-3PO

    I too sent an email days ago to Sideshow with no response regarding the thumbs. I just remembered they previewed the 4lom figure recently. Are they suggesting we drop another $250 for another engineering/manufacturing error with that one? They almost can't fix that one less we all cry foul. I...

    The Indy Premium Format Figure Countdown/Discussion Thread

    I was giving serious consideration to sawing off the right forearm. While test fitting the jacket prior to sewing on the sleeves I found I could slip it on one hand at a time bring it up from the legs. Adding the sleeves made it hard to get past the left thumb. I admit I thought a stitch...

    The Indy Premium Format Figure Countdown/Discussion Thread

    $21 in material and thread from Joanne Fabrics. I reused the lining and zipper, as well as the strap buckles from the original jacket.

    The Indy Premium Format Figure Countdown/Discussion Thread

    Thanks. I did cut the old jacket off. I did not have to break it to get the new jack on because the material had a little give to stretch, and making the side straps adjusttable gave me a little more wiggle room.

    The Indy Premium Format Figure Countdown/Discussion Thread

    I pulled my ROTLA Indy Premium Format from the display case a few months ago to find the cuffs of the sleeves had dried out and crumbled like others. I have had the figure on display without jacket for a few months and decided I never really liked the Sideshow jacket anyhow for a number of...

    Sideshow Hoth Han Solo (Echo Base)

    Ordered Brown froom Sideshow yesterday as I want the second head sculpt. My 8 year old daughter and I just went frame by frame on the bluray after I told her about the debate. I was curious after reading someone thought there could have been both colors worn. We could not find a scene where...

    Hello from Toy Anxiety!!

    The shirt is from ACI Toys Navy Blue Military PMC. The pants are Toys City GEN3 Combat Uniform. Soldier Story also makes similar pants that I considered.

    Hello from Toy Anxiety!!

    My first entry into the monthly random drawing...WWZ Gerry Lane. I've seen some customs from the early part of the movie, and the end with the axe...but nothing from the middle. I'm more happy with this kitbash than some of my recent complete figure purchases. -MACHone

    1/6 Batman 1989: Batmobile Collectible Vehicle - Specs & Pics

    It actually sounds more like it's a local authorized retailer that they are contacting to pick it up. If so I'm sure they will let them sell it locally at a steep discount. It actually makes sense to me instead of them eating the shipping charges.

    1/6 Batman 1989: Batmobile Collectible Vehicle - Specs & Pics

    Now I'm curious how they will handle mine. AE for me too...

    1/6 Batman 1989: Batmobile Collectible Vehicle - Specs & Pics

    Add one to the return to Sideshow. Mine had two scuffs on passenger side. Canopy not too bad, but by window was scratched in. Sideshow can choke on the damaged ones as far as I'm concerned. Partial refund declined. I just can't justify keeping it with the damage. I can't see past at $500.

    Toys Legend Dark Knight Bank Robbers

    After the Dark Knight Armory it looks as though Toys Legend truly is not finished with Batman. I just saw this picture posted on their main site products page, I don't see it on their facebook page yet... It looks as though they are really trying to flesh out the lines. It's clearly the...
