But its also because how the movie performs and the how well the villian is recieved. Vulture is up there with Loki as top tier MCU villain, so damn good. Keaton is great.

What's wrong with the Flare Or Volks one?
If F4F do better than these, I'll give them my money.
Well they are absurdly expensive by now, but then again we're also talking about F4F so maybe that's not a concern.

Nothing really, but that Flare one was huge. Pricey, too. More than I wanted to spend. Honestly, I like the Phat version the best but that thing is rare and expensive as shit. I'm fine just waiting for the next Bayo to come along.
Also, where the hell have you been?!
They were already way too expensive and too big for me. I have a smaller one where she's kicking high. Love that one.

I would love a Bayo figure or statue with the Bayonetta 2 design.
I asked Steve Wang to post images of his unproduced prototype Predator figure he created before the first film came out. The company that was supposed to produce it didn't wanna produce it if the chance the movie wasn't a hit. This is essentially the first figure ever conceived based on the Predator.

I was gonna tell you that Amazon has the two hardest to get figures from the Legends Sandman wave in stock, but Green Goblin just sold out. They still have All-New Spider-Man 2099.
The contrast between the fairly matte white paint and the red metallic on 2099 is striking in person.

Slowly getting the Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy Mantis wave as they show up on Amazon...Warlock is the only one that has escaped me so far.
Death's Head II is a ridiculous figure in both execution and that they actually made a figure of Death's Head II in 2017. It's not like they phoned it in either - new head,belt,lower arms,and lower legs that they can't really reuse anywhere else and 2 new left hands for the Colossus body.
Only questionable reuse is the Colossus shoulders.

I saw a bunch of that wave at a Walmart, including Death's Head II, but the boxes all looked like they'd been stepped on.
I also saw this atrocity a while back...
So, does anyone have any suggestions for the Overwatch D.Va figure in terms of display? I use Ikea Detolf's but there's not 19 inches of clearance between shelves and to remove a shelf would take away so much display space. I'm thinking of putting her on top of the Detolf's and then encapsulating her with something. But I have no idea what I can buy to do that.
She's 19 inches tall and about 16 inches around.

Figure-GAF, I don't know much about figures now esp as I left collecting for a few years, so I have a few questions:
1) What is Union Creative, what is Vulcanlog and what is the corporate relation to Kaiyodo? More importantly, where did Katsuhisa Yamaguchi end up?
2) Any word on when that Jet Set Radio Beat Vulcanlog will be released?

Pretty dope. Similar shading to the Batman Black & White Mike Mignola statue I have.

There's a way to mod detolfs to change the shelf height. People did it for HT Groot.
Show me a Trunks figure that looks like that and I'll forget about paying back my student loans.

I need it.
From what I've seen, Hasbro have been killing it with female movie figures. Ordered Gamora yesterday after seeing all the praise.

It just amazes me how great the Marvel Legends movie tie-in figures have been, meanwhile the human Star Wars Black Series figures look like abominations that should be killed with fire.
Wow, that actually looks very good.

It's so obnoxious that they feel the need to put "Marvel's" before every fucking character name.

Prob for legal reasons. Transformers have several figures that start with "Autobot" or the like.

When is Daredevil, Punisher and most importantly Blade coming out?
If that would only count for Star Wars too. It's so sad that they can do these amazing Marvel Legends figures but their Star Wars line is looking like crap.

Less obnoxious since it's an in-universe reference.

Wait, what? Why on Earth would you make a posable, super expensive figure of Van Gogh?

Yeah. Here's a high res promo.
Looks like the production version is delivering the goods promised.
They're scheduled for August. Given the way the last few waves have been handled, you probably won't easily find them in stores until September/October. I really wish the distribution on these was handled better.

Yea, I remember seeing an artist post his OW fanart for a D.Va and someone actually made a bootleg statue from it. He tweeted how funny that was. I guess if you want a Meka statue that doesn't cost $450, this is a good alternative
There's also Junk, Hog and Genji from what I've found so far. They seem to be based on the official artwork. I'ms ure the quality is gonna be subpar but I guess it's better than waiting for the official ones.
There's also a bootleg of the official Tracer statue too.

I'm sure these have already been posted, but couldn't find it.. Just in case, I'm going to post them again. I'm sure there will be an interested party around here.

You should do it. For Messi's sake.
Isn't that their standard price point for their Premium Format line these days?
Freezasaurus

$450-$500 is normal these days.. $530 is how they begin their slow crawl to $600. When they get to $575 or so, they'll jump to $600 and pretend it's not a massive price increase. That's the kind of shit Marvel does.

Messi gonna buy all the Harleys. I'm cringing at the extra $30 SS slapped on the end of that PF, though. Dire tidings, they be.
Its only $30 bro. Skip a meal or two and you can get her.
