A little disappointed by the lack of leg printing on these figures (yes I know spidey has his leg designs but even then he would usually have some musculature printing as well), I know simplifying tampography was brought up at one point as a cost cutting measure , but all these figures having completely blank legs makes them feel straight out of 2006

Absolutely love the demolition man inclusion, stuff like that is why we’re all here, deep cut characters that no other company would ever make

Man those really have to be the most dead on arrival sets I’ve ever seen, I can’t possibly envision these making it past the preorder stage, why you take a line which is already underperforming and elect to follow it up with the one of the most obscure and unloved corner or the property is beyond me

Wasn’t there supposed to be 3 new characters plus the 4th additional one? Mary and Echo are the only new ones as far as I can tell

Yep probably modern young avengers then, Bishop, Chavez, Wiccan, Speed, Hulkling and kid Loki, 7th members may be Stature

Would make perfect sense too considering almost all of these characters have been recently introduced in the mcu from properties dst didn’t make figures for

Young avengers would certainly fit the bill in terms of number of members, but pretty much every recent iteration has at least two women, frequently Chavez and Bishop, so I can’t imagine them not making both of them if that were the case

Someone just posted in package shots on instagram, and this series seems to come with a build a figure Silver Sable, is that something we knew about? Certainly fits into the espionage theme

I’d really have to see what the packaging on this thing looks like, if the figures are posed inside and it makes for a nice looking display, then sure, if not and the just vanilla posed the whole way around, then nah, only got room for one of each character in my mcu setup, and none of the figures  here would knock off the ones I already have up

Always bugged the hell out of me that we never got Captain Koons, so I decided to throw one together that I feel came out perfectly, Colonel Rhodes body, Kaecilius head, Negan hair

still hands down one of the best series’ we’ve ever gotten

It looks like the helmet and beard on red Guardian is one sculpted piece, now how much do you want to bet it won’t line up with the eyes or mouth? Great looking figures though

Well thats RIP, for those who don’t know, on bbts, the preorder sold out status pretty much always means cancelled when it comes to mates

According to their site, John Wick Minimates are due to arrive this month. 

Unfortunately bbts has updated the month of arrival every month since like July, they definitely ain’t coming out this month

So we’re still missing another figure and the baf from this series right?

Some one please remind me, what’s the scale for minimates? 1:12?

Minimates are about 1:29 scale, I’m pretty sure they’re closer to 2.5” then 2”, 1:12 are 6” figures

Well, I’ve been on a John Wick kick the last few days, and against my better interests/paranoia that the boxset will probably be canceled, I preordered the set, and picked up Dillon from aliens to kitbash Lance Redicks character, please god don’t let this set get canned

I threw it into the other section, but I would definitely use Wong with his goatee from IW/Endgame, or powered up faces for Thor and Scarlet Witch

If you do decide to do it, you should also consider an eyepatched Thor head

We got confirmation from Diamond that our End Game box sets are arriving next week as well.

 

Hey luke, is there any chance you could make a scaley cap torso decal, thats all we would need to make it

Tray shot up on facebook, Cap doesn’t get a shield and Rocket doesn’t get a gun, huh?

everything else looks great, but definitely would have preferred to get normal Thor and Cap over Widow and War Machine, neither of those figs really bring anything new to the table, especially War Wachine

I know it’ll never happen, but what if they just gave us a torso piece of caps new scale suit that we could just plop onto the civil war body, since his new suit pretty much unchanged other than that

Called that dst would include a figure that could’t be changed around and everyone is gonna have doubles of, also Nebula is inaccurate, she’s supposed to have a big gold/orange section on her face now, and hawkeyes hair is pretty disappointing, and we better not get Cap and Thor in the quantum suits and not get their cool new outfits because of it, but I guarantee it’s happening

yeah, i remember all of us being surprised when they hit walgreens -- in fact, i remember asking someone to at least tell us the lineup since they couldn't post pics.  i think they hit earlier than expected.  i do remember the press release too but it was a few days after i'd found a complete set.

i'm trying to remember if infinity war was the same way.

i remember finding sets and not being able to buy them.  that sucked.  ?

anyways, just take this as excitement on our end.  

The first Infinity War series leaked on ebay a while before it was revealed, the second wave didn’t and took forever to pop up everywhere

We’re getting endgame stuff, we haven’t seen it yet because we’re not supposed to yet, we weren’t supposed to see any of this stuff from any companies yet, except for lego, I think they get special exceptions, I’ve heard march 31st rumored as the date companies can start revealing stuff and apparently thats also the street date for most things
