Ended up ordering one. I really wanted two since I don’t have Chewie anywhere else in the display, but cannot justify the cost of an extra broken 3P0. They did drop the ball by not having a standard and deluxe version. I hope this means they are planning a solo Chewie release under another banner.

Uncanny Magneto has been my favorite variant. They sent off extra Uncanny Mags to BBTS and EE because he was a slow seller. Made me worried for the Uncanny sub line. Glad to pick up two more Uncanny variants and hope they keep releasing them.

The Joe team said in the Yo Joe June stream that the Stinger will be more readily available than the Vamp. Who knows by how much though.

I plan to keep buying until I am crushed to death by all the boxes. If I am lucky, it will happen just before the general collapse of society, so that my horde of toys becomes my permanent tomb.

Mondo has been doing a mix of week-long timed exclusives and set quantities exclusives for their X-Men TAS line. There really hasn’t been an issue getting any at launch until recently. Timed Gambit moved 1,000 units. So they set 1,000 units for a limited Rogue. She sold out in about three...

I spent as much time trying to add this to my cart as I did in queue. What a mess.

So many companies do the tiger stripe. I personally went with the Astonishing.

I enjoyed my Tusken robes and I am interested in an ANH Leia dress.

I’ve tried for every artisan and never got through before. In my experience the queue has been a steady decrease of drops between ten to fifty-ish people at a time.

I had a spot in line that was over 4,400 out that somehow managed to get through. I assumed I was SOL and I wasn’t watching that close. I have no idea if the queue jumped unusually. Were a lot of people skipping the artisan for standard? Was the queue churning unusually fast for others? Did I...

I’ve whipped this idea out before, probably in a Captain Marvel discussion thread on the board, but I think Marvel is missing an obvious slow build for the X-men that makes sense. Introduce mutants over time through many of their other connections to the Marvel Universe. The next Captain Marvel...

The provided photos don’t have the resolution to show it, but there’s also some weird fur texturing going on.

Sideshow used to have distribution centers in Europe but closed them a long time ago. They still possess the HT distribution rights for Europe. Local Euro retailers are resellers, with many sourcing from Hong Kong resellers to indirectly get stock. These issues inflate the price of Hot Toys in...

I wish I knew for sure where Hot Toys sends out their allotment for these new kinds of exclusives. It might just be certain official Hot Toys physical stores throughout SE Asia and Sideshow. If anyone knows about other distributors that has an official allocation and isn’t just a reseller, I...

Basic battle droid and 2000 wooly haired Qui Gons with literally nothing else offered.

I’m going to need an extra one of these heads for my DX version.

This is one of those characters that is fine for the Hasbro line, but Hot Toys shouldn’t bother with. I’m pretty sure I could rattle off ten other figures from this show who are more important. We’re getting this because no headsculpt is substantially easier for Hot Toys.

Nanjin sure has loved to talk up the detail they achieved with the pattern on the shoulders of the SNW uniforms. I cannot believe he has even bragged that you need a magnifying glass to really appreciate the detail. And he has made it clear that he cannot achieve that print and use the stretchy...

At this point I am going to have to be an InArt fan because they actually let me order their products. Even though I have nearly the entire IS/Endgame line (paid full price) and nearly every screen-used release of Star Wars for the last three+ years (no chrome clone bs), all Hot Toys is telling...
