We'll, I've got a lot of muscles, and I've only got one eye, but I'll never hurts nobody, and I'll never violate a non-disclosure agreement.

Hulk, Nick Fury, and Pepper Potts confirmed!

Has it ever been stated that comic Domino is an albino? she doesnt appear to have any other albino traits. 

Um...I didn't say that Domino was albino.  I said that an actress with Domino's skin color would have to be an albino to be naturally occurring.  Which is what the conversation seemed to be about:  Comicbook characters should be portrayed by actors with the same naturally occurring skin tones.  Despite the peculiarities of comicbook coloring, Domino is clearly portrayed as having unusually white skin, as opposed to a Caucasian coloration of "white".  Thus, as with Nightcrawler, there's a really bad chance of her being portrayed by an actress with the same skin tone.

Michale Clarke Duncan was a great Kingpin. That is all. 

Agreed.

But....there aren't that many albino actresses out there, right?  Domino's comicbook skin color doesn't occur naturally all that often.  So, even a "white" (Caucasian) actress wouldn't be comicbook accurate, or, really, on the color spectrum, all that close.

Personally don't care about skin color; I'm more concerned about character portrayal (Ned Leeds in Homecoming is Ganke, and should have been named such), and placement in the timeline (MJ doesn't meet Peter in high school (and Michelle shouldn't have the same nickname, even as an easter egg)).

The majority of the comicbook characters portrayed in movies weren't "born" yesterday.  Unless you're making a period piece, those origins and such need an update.

IF the existing license for Minecraft block figures has expired, then I'm guessing it's Minecraft.

From what I read:

Current movie deal will run out; at end of agreement, mouse house movies go exclusive to Disney Streaming service.

Currently, Marvel Netflix shows are not affected.  Different contract.  Obviously, could change in future.

Disney Streaming will have Disney movies and broadcast tv properties; new exclusive movies/shows to be developed.

Has anyone purchased the Batsignal/Batman/Robin combo?

If so, what did you think?

thanks!

Or tiger parts.

Or purple turtle parts.

Or....

"Cost effective" would depend on who is paying for it, right?

Speaking of which, should I know who this Steve person is...?

Well, THAT didn't work.

The corrected version has no visible hip joints. Other collectors have stated the updated version is the one currently on Amazon. And I'm pretty sure both BTAS and TNBA versions have the same articulation.

Thanks for this; ordered, delivered, waiting to be opened.  But, it does have the right hips as your pic.

As long as you guys weren't breaking Super Powers, best 80's action figure line period, I won't have to come hurt you. 

And I guess it depends on the Action Feature... my 12" Steve Austin with the bionic eye you could look through was pretty darn cool (the Six Million Dollar Man, for those of you under 40). As was the 8" GI Joe with Kung-FU gripe... Or Super Joe Commander with the 1-2-punch... yeah... I'm old.

And I'm guess the original MotU just drove you nuts, huh?

re: Steve Austin:  definitely.  However, I am now torn as to whether I appreciated the button on his back to make his arm lift the car engine....

re: GI Joe:  I would hate to see modern figures come with Kung-FU gripes....voice features are expensive,  and there are enough whiny snowflakes around.  Kung-Fu heroes should not have 99 first world problems!

Just read that Timm-verse Superman figures are coming in 6", now I want to get the Timm-verse Worlds Finest.

Can anyone point out how to be certain you are getting an Improved Batman release, instead of the 1st release?  I would most likely purchase off of Amazon.

There are obviously a couple of costume variations; is one of these sure to be "better" articulation than another?

Thanks!

drawing out mysterious characters for an explosive debut...?  Sound JUST LIKE THE COMICS!!!!

I find it strange to compare the Adam West Batman to any other Batman.  His was the most unique interpretation of the character; to the point where it's almost a different character.  All the Bat-men that followed were of the same mold:  variations of dark, brooding. 

RIP Adam West.  But, we'll see you soon, same Bat-time, same Bat-channel.

You know why it's only 8 episodes instead of 13 or 22?

The hair budget.

one of them is a mutant

edit:  it's the same with Pete and Figaro.....

Does anyone know the age range of primary buyers of blind bag toys?  Maybe pairing blind bags with a video game rated "M" may have been a contributing factor.

I can't image getting foam to do all of those things....!

It isn't April 1st

no mushrooms

only if they are a man with two brains.

15th Anniversary; Waves 1,2,3 were released about the same time.

Wave 3 was Ultimate X-Men, so probably not a contender.

Wave 2 was Spider-man, DST always luvs them some Spidey.

Wave 1 was Mostly Daredevil, with a Hulk pack thrown in.
