    All Mondo X-Men Animated Figure Thread

    I passed on Uncanny Magneto because I didn't care for his shiny metallic red helmet (in contrast to the rest of the outfit). Of course, now I've ordered a Rogue with shiny metallic green paint... I actually owned the SooSoo Gambit for a good stretch before I sold it. I was in the reverse...

    All Mondo X-Men Animated Figure Thread

    Agreed. Mondo's been pretty bad lately about sending emails before figures drop; nowadays, they only email once it's available (which is sometimes too late if it's limited). I only found out about the exact drop time from their Twitter feed yesterday, and I had to check their blog post to see...

    Finally got Rogue (missed out on the first limited one), and glad it comes with all the limited edition extras too. Surprised it hasn't sold out yet though.

    SooSoo SST-073 Lady Protector (Melissa Benoist Supergirl)

    A 1/6 Melissa Benoist Supergirl figure has been on my wishlist for years, but none of the earlier third-party figures looked great. I have the DC Collectibles 1/6 statue as a stand-in, and it actually has a pretty good likeness, albeit painted poorly. The tailoring on this is better than the...

    1/6 Hot Toys - Deadpool & Wolverine - Deadpool!!

    This new suit definitely has more polish with all the little gold accents and flourishes (including on the weapons), but I like the more "homemade" feel of the DP1 suit. Thankfully they kept much of the same design elements and didn't do a complete overhaul (or make it very visually busy, as...

    1/6 Hot Toys - Deadpool & Wolverine - Deadpool!!

    I'm a bit torn because I love the DP1 suit but hate the proportions/materials on that figure (and sold it off); meanwhile, I love the proportions/materials on this version but don't like the outfit (the gold highlights really bug me... though not the gold pistols, oddly enough). Except for the...

    Found this interesting nugget on Mondo's site. Based on the previous Uncanny variants, it might just be a repaint of the regular release, but maybe we'll get some of the exclusive head sculpts too (fingers crossed for a second shot at Rogue).

    Hot Toys - Iron Man 3 - 1/6th scale Iron Man Mark XLII (2.0) Collectible Figure (Deluxe Version)

    Always been a fan of this armor (tied with the Mark VII as my second favorite), but I recently mentally prepared myself to sell the original 1.0 figure, and I don't think I can justify picking up an oversized 2.0 (the 1.0 felt like the right height, even if the proportions weren't great). On...

    1/6 Hot Toys Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special Mantis

    Had to look up the differences, and considering her look in the Holiday Special was closer to her look in Vol 3, that change makes sense. I wasn't a fan of the updated somber expression until I saw the original prototype again, and it's definitely a better sculpt/likeness now. I see Mantis as...

    Hot Toys Wonder Woman (WB 100)

    I got mine for less from Toy Anxiety (back in 2023), but at the current prices, it's cheaper to just get a GA figure, keep the head, and sell off the rest (there are new/complete sets on ebay selling for less than that inflated price).

    1/6 Hot Toys- Mighty Thor (Jane Foster)- Thor: Love and Thunder

    I have a love/hate relationship with that figure. Love the costume (without the cape) but hate the sculpted hair piece and how terrible it looks when posing her head (I don't even mind the shoulder seams). Still undecided between selling it or modding it with a wig/rooted hair.

    Hot Toys Wonder Woman (WB 100)

    Haven't looked at prices lately, but I agree it would probably be cheaper to piece something together rather than get the WB100 version. While it's more work, you can also tailor it to your interests- there were some collectors who managed to get the JL/BvS costumes to fit on the WW84 body, if...

    1/6 Hot Toys- Mighty Thor (Jane Foster)- Thor: Love and Thunder

    Another figure that makes me sad that the sculpted hair voices won out at HT (outside of the artisan releases). Rooted hair requires more effort to maintain/pose properly but looks so much better than these floating plastic blobs that only work for one (forward-looking) pose.

    1/6 Hot Toys - MMS664-D48 - Iron Man - Iron Man Mark 3 (2.0 For Real This Time!)

    This about sums up my feelings. I got this figure during a busy period for me, so I wasn't able to do much posing with it (and still haven't). I like that I can put together a look from the end of the movie with the (partial) BD suit, unhelmeted head, and crushed helmet. But for all its...

    Missed the timed Gambit restock but tempted to pick up the regular Gambit, on the off chance the limited edition Rogue comes back as well. 🤔

    1/6 Thunder Toys TD2031 Crazy / Loony Bride (Harley Quinn, The Suicide Squad)

    The escape sequence with the red dress might be my favorite Harley action sequence (and I absolutely love the police station sequence in BoP), but for pure aesthetics, this is my favorite look. I was convinced HT was going to make this, but I'm surprised no third party has yet either.

    Jazzinc Dioramas 1/6 Ultimate Catwoman (Batman Returns, 1992)

    Well, I am watching this thread with less interest now... Or I would be, if my eyes could move. :lol I just want to make sure the eyes don't have that thousand yard dead-eye stare that every other company does for their female figures, so swap out eye expressions could work (not just swap out...

    Hello from Toy Anxiety!!

    Missed the Padme breakdown again- does anyone know how much her boots went for?

    Jazzinc Dioramas 1/6 Ultimate Catwoman (Batman Returns, 1992)

    Rolling eyes help, but I'd argue there should be more expression around the eyes to match an intense mouth expression. The first expression looks like a grimace to me, which doesn't work with neutral eyes (even if they're movable). Adding a bit of a furrow to her eyebrows would help there, but...
