TENIME_art Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 What do you mean by "Terminators"? Like the T-800/1000? Because I thought Sarah Connor was one of the original bodies to have the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Yeah, the T-800/Arnold figures. I think Sarah had a rubber body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Sideshow Jason arrived! I was on the fence about this one originally, but now I am glad I ordered him. He isn't Hot Toys quality, but he is pretty close. I got him for $140 after my reward points, and that was worth it for me. I saw a few users on SSC padded up his shoulders more. I am going to give that a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Classic bag guy of horror. He looks good to me Luke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I liked Jason so much that I preordered the Sideshow Freddy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) Your Jason looks pretty great, though I read of several owners having some major QC problems on him, even glaring ones like missing chevrons on his mask. Extremely iconic character and look. I got Ash a few weeks back, and that is a very, very good figure by Sideshow standards. In fact, the reason I missed out on the exclusive is that I have so little faith in SSC that I would pre-order from them. But if they can get a few wins in succession that might change my opinion. Kind of funny that they're creating so many figures that Betomatali sold in the past, though--Beetlejuice, Ash, Jason, Freddy. Maybe Creepshow will be next!

Zylek Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 The new Spidey from HT is tops on my list of want for 2017. It looks like 2017 will be easier on the wallet than 2016 was, Civil War just killed me! My fingers are crossed that they make Hela from Ragnarok.

luke314pi Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I think the only one from that cover that I will be picking up is Spidey. I have Drax from GOTG 1 on preorder. I am also hoping for Hela with her giant head piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zylek Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I'm skipping most of the GotG 2 figures except for Rocket, I didn't really like the expression on the original so the new vol 2 got me to take the plunge. I'll likely get Nebula and Mantis if they get around to making them. As for Homecoming, I'm just going to get the CW/Homecoming Spidey as well, that IM looks off with all that silver. Just from the trailers, I think I'd been in for a new Loki from Ragnarok and probably skip Gladiator Thor and Hulk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I picked up the 1/6 scale Pinhead vinyl figure by Mezco (who I didn't even know made 1/6 scale stuff) to go with my Jason. Even though it's all vinyl, it works well for Pinhead since he wears all shiny leather anyways. The best part is that he is only $40. The pins are slightly larger than I would like, and the articulation isn't the best, but for $40 I am very happy with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I'm selling Thanos if anyone is interested. Displayed briefly in a smoke-free, pet-free home. Complete (even outer packing box). As mint as he could possibly be, being opened. Just looking to recoup my initial cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TENIME_art Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I was mainly hoping to get money for upcoming figures that aren't out yet. I'd like Retaliation Storm Shadow, but he's only $189, and I paid $415 for Thanos (and even he's going for $382 on BBTS...why is it that other people double, triple, quadruple their initial costs when reselling something, and I always end up taking huge losses? *sigh* ).

Mysterious Stranger Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) Pretty sure that Drax on the magazine cover is the same one from GOTG V1. He's supposed to have swappable pants so you can either have the red or blue look with one figure. I'm considering getting the new Starlord but I haven't pulled the trigger yet. I like that exclusive head with the mask in mid form and the short jacket. And he has a Groot accessory that I kinda want. I did preorder the deluxe Rocket but that will probably be it for me for this film. Gamora looks okay but I don't really need another and I'm trying to cut back on my Hot Toys spending. Though I think The Last Jedi might kill that plan. Edited May 1, 2017 by Mysterious Stranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Any old hats at this line of collecting know where I can get Hot Toys "cosbabies"? I need all the Guardians, but Hot Toys doesn't seem to have a store on their site, Sideshow doesn't carry any, and BBTS only has Avengers & Ant-Man. I was going to say maybe they're just not out yet, but a bunch of eBay sellers have them, I just don't want to pay their prices if I don't have to.

buttheadsmate Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I've actually stopped buying cosbabies for a number of reasons ,the main one being the cost . The price of cosbabies varies dramatically with the various ebay suppliers & TBQH the best advice I can give to you is to wait until the prices settle then pounce . Ebay unfortunately is your best bet & I never found an alternative reliable source in the US . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBMM1 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I just picked up the Episode 7 Han and Chewbacca Hot Toys set. They are my first 1/6 scale figures and I am now afraid that addiction is setting in (more are on order...)! Han Solo is magnificent and the sculpt is probably the best Ford likeness ever. Amazing considering he didn't allow facial scanning. Chawbacca's face is a little funky (a wee bit too much space between his eyes and nose), but it's nothing a little hair tousling can't fix. I will post pics as soon as I have them nicely set up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysterious Stranger Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 My QMX ST:TNG Picard finally arrived, after a delay at the post office. The likeness looks a lot better in person, and it looked pretty good in the online pics. I think he'll be going in the display with Cap'n Tightpants for now.

TENIME_art Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Drax is finally being shipped in a week and a half! (Thanos is still for sale, and Rey is still either up for trade for Resistance Rey, or for sale so I can turn around and buy Resistance Rey, if anyone is interested.)
