They all look pretty bad. Pretty disappointing.

They're usually on point so I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Dormammu lives!
Also, I finally found that second wave of Suicide Squad figures at Walmart. I only got Katana. I keep seeing the wave with TV Supergirl now, but they always have everyone except her...sigh.

Dormammu so cool! He's going to be the villain in the next arc of the Doctor Strange comic, too.
That looks pretty cool. Like a mix of the Showa and Heisei variants.
Also, bought a couple of Third Party Transformers, they're really cool.
First up is MMC's Carnifex, or not-Overlord. It's absolutley fantastic and has great build quality and a nice feel to it.
Second is Nero Rex. Build quality isn't as good as the above but I still really like it, that combined mode has such shelf presence.

He looks awesome. Wish I was into getting this whole wave. I think I'll buy the pieces I'll need from E-Bay.

Ugh I wish I'd have gotten BvS Supes when he was readily available refuse to pay inflated aftermarket prices for HT. Only one I ever did it on was Reeves Supes and it was a good price overall.

I think two things factored in to his selling out. One, after MoS Supes sat for over a year, HT didn't make nearly as many BvS Supes as they did the prior version. Two, once in-hand pics of Batman started hitting, people saw the improved product from the prototype and decided they wanted both of them, so there was a rush on them both.
Hell, up until two weeks ago I was going to skip them myself.

Beautiful display. I NEED a cabinet like that. My Detolfs are nice but can't handle team displays (Avengers, Guardians) the way I'd want. Where did you get it?
Went back to the comic shop today and picked in their last BvS Superman, since supplies of him have completely dried up. Not disappointed in the least.
And here's my D.C. cabinet.

People need their goddamn Gundamuuuu. I remember what it used to be like when scale figure pre-orders would be a bloodbath. Now that only happens with Gundams and Star Wars Figuarts. Ha ha.

Secured my stuff.
Do you know at what time did these j-e-tailers end up putting the New stuff up for.pre-order? I woke up at 3 am EST and refreshed their sites for 30 minutes and nothing changed, Iwent back to bed and ended up getting my things this morning. Weird to see Japanese people failing at punctuality.
davidwhangchoi
Member
yeah, i got lucky bc someone was watching myfigurecollection and
Ryan from HLJ posted a direct link there before anywhere else for F91 2 minutes before 3amEST.
woah you got an F91 pre-order in the morning?please tell me where i'd like to get a backup.
everything goes up 16:00 JST for most retailers as that is what is posted on the official bandai site (3am EST daylight savings for me)
they all ended up all going up at that time. but sold out within 20 secs so you might've missed it.
with hlj
they have stuff at times that doesn't show up in the search system till about 5 minutes later (by that time it could be too late) unless you got a direct link
but ami ami and hobby search and cdjapan usually go up within 1 or 2 minutes of the time that was stated

Ikea, actually! Here you go.

Be forewarned, it's an absolute bitch to put together, more so than the Detolfs are. It took me a total of 18 hours, and I still had to rig something up on my own to make the doors shut properly.

Adding to my One Piece characters. I've now got Sanji to go with Luffy.
Just in case any of you are as crazy as I am, Gecco has recently announced they will be making Weapon Accessories for their 1/6th scale Bloodborne Hunter statue that released earlier this year.
The weapons are:
-Whirligig Saw
-Hunter's Axe
-Hunter Pistol and Torch
and there will also be an option for a Display Wall that is 'styled in the ways of the Healing Church' to display all the weapons.
Trying very hard to convince myself I don't need these but...they look incredible...but are so expensive...
Only place I have been able to find with a 'combo pack' is here though I don't know how reliable that site is.
Someone save me from myself

I didn't buy that one. I would have If they'd made a female hunter variant. I miss the days when Gecco figures were 10-12k JPY instead of 35-40k.

Hey QQ, the case to the right that has your transformers in it... is that the case from Ikea? if so, how did you fit devastator in there? Did you adjust the shelf somehow? or does it fit without having to adjust the shelves?

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Regular (as in not astral) MCU Dr. Strange seems to be the only figure in the Dormammu wave with any scalper appeal so I picked it up as soon as I ran into one for under $20 in the wild, which was today. It's a darned nice figure. I like the rest but I'll wait for sub-$15 on them.
I also picked up a Neca 1/10 OG Alien. Apparently it was Walmart-exclusive and came out last year but Toys R Us had some.

This little guy finally came last night. I love the scowling expression, I think they got the look perfect. Looks just like my child self imagined Link from LTTP.

Jesus, the prices are kinda insane, I own both versions of the Hunter but I dunno about buying these weapons. I hope AmiAmi has a discount for them.
All of the expressions are great. Really captures that Oracle era Link.
figma Din can't come soon enough.

I used wire clamps from Home Depot to lower one of the glass shelves.

Just attach one to each corner and the glass sits on top of them.
