Isn't that Batmobile walkthrough old though? I still don't think we're getting it.
Probably but its still cool. I'm pretty sure the BvS figures sold a lot better than the Adam West Batman figures so they'll most likely release this in limited quantities.

no sign of Back to the Future II hover conversion.
That'll come this year probably. Or at least the final version for a 2018 release.

I will immensely regret not getting the Adam West Batman the moment they ever put up for order the Romero Joker.
Yeaaaaaaaaah lol

I didn't know there was a Hot Toys Adam West Batman until a week or two ago. If anything could have broken me, that would have been it.
Temple of Doom Indy came somewhat close, though.

I think I'm gonna stop preordering from AmiAmi. Seems like Amazon Japan is a good place to buy again these days and easy to cancel. Only sucks when they won't ship to US for some figures. But sometimes by the time a figure comes out, I'm not as interested. Just had a past payment due for a Nendo and I'm gonna just let it die.
Hey, some of you guys have let them all die multiple times with no issues so that's fine with me.
I'm also selling some sealed PAKs. If you're willing to pay double or triple the MSRP and help me out, let me know. Otherwise, they're going up on eBay.

Not joking. I still get the emails. Got two more yesterday and canceled cuz I don't want them anymore.
And I can still cancel if it's in my Pile of Loot. They are so nice. (Not being sarcastic)

I really hate the prices for their import figures altho it seems closer to JPN MSRP these days. I also miss when they used to sell Hot Toys for less than SS. Now they just price match them. But I still like them for the ease of cancellations with no hassle.

Sometime I will get a 10 Day Notice and the item has already been charged (it's happened twice last year for big $200+ items) but overall, they usually do a great job with the notices and I always seem to find great deals on random figures, models, etc,.
One of best deals I got last year was the Apollo 13 Tamashii Nations model:
http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=BAN15051&mode=retail
Got it for almost half off, which was great because I couldn't justify spending $560+ for it. The quality is amazing but the price is just painful.

Who is Diggeh ?

He's a home wrecker who comes in here and acts like he owns the place. Neither trusted or well liked.
His response will be snarky and more than likely include a GIF.

A bad influence. The devil on your shoulder. The voice that compels Messi to buy every Harley figure released.

This is my preferred method.
It is actually really helpful. Though their prices on a lot of import figures are pretty lol.

I mean...it is the third time they've done it in my last few orders. Feels like we've gone back to a time before they used to do 10 day notices. Not that I mind, but it makes me rethink what I have preordered there.
Now to help people with toy questi--
MY BRAND
Hi action figure gaf I haven't followed toy news in years and I have a question. I'm shopping for my nephew's upcoming birthday and he really likes The Hulk. Hulk is his favorite Avenger and he's always jonesing for a new action figure or figurine of the green guy so I wanna ask those who collect Marvel figures what the best Hulk action figure currently available?
I know of the Hot Toys 12 inch one but that is a) too damn expensive and b) I think he generally sticks to the smaller 6 inch scale (or closest) from what I've seen of his toy shelf. I know he has a few of the Marvel Legends ones, including the latest MCU one from Age of Ultron. And a statue which I saw on the box was from Kotobukiya(?) iirc.
Thanks.

The Mythic Legions 2.0: Advent of Decay Kickstarter is now live!
More reveals later.
h e l p
The current Marvel Legends Hulk is probably the best 6" scaled Hulk for the price, but it's a bit more expensive now. I'd recommend getting the Marvel Select Hulk (or at least one of the Marvel Select Hulks) because they're hefty and awesome.

Thanks, diggeh. He already has that particular Marvel Legends one. The Marvel Select one looks nice, and its cheap enough that I might get that and also something else as well.

ML 2.0 is already fully funded and the first stretch goals were unlocked! Here's a new one that'll be unlocked probably by the time I finish posting:
EDIT: Yup, it did. Also unlocked the Elves Weapon Pack (uncolored proto pics as usual) and Azza Spiritbender will be unlocked at $195k.

I really like the look of those ML vampire figures. But the price just makes me want to avoid the line. It would be $120 for the figures I want. That's just too rich for my blood for what they offer.
Anyway, I received the Ultimate City Hunter Predator from NECA a couple of days ago. Been really looking forward to this guy!
This guy is awesome! So glad I never paid the after market premium on one of the older versions. Just so much articulation. Between that and his numerous accessories, he just has so many display options. The paint work is beautiful. It really brings him to life. So much bang for the buck. It's hard to believe this guy is only $25! He really makes me want to go out and get the rest of the LA Hunting Party to complete the P2 collection. Bring on the Ultimate Jungle Hunter!
