karamazov80 Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 DiD is starting to rival Hot Toys in terms of the realism of the headsculpts, methinks. Plus, no pesky licensing fees! http://onlinedid.com/products/wwii/bos/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Enemy at the Gates! Great story, based on fact. I love the figures. Konig was a great character in that film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, no pesky licensing fees! http://onlinedid.com/products/wwii/bos/ the sculpt is a great likeness but is the beard flocked? if so it flocking sucks. there is only one figure in the history of toys that is allowed to be flocked and that is Mossman.

karamazov80 Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Yeah, the actual hair or hair-like substance on one's head is a crucial factor distinguishing "action figures" from "dolls" in my arbitrary classification system.

Shanester Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Two awesome figures. The detail in the Iron Man MK1 is incredible and the likeness of the DX Joker is uncanny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Yeah the MK1 was my first, and so damn cool that it sparked my current obsession with 1/6 scale stuff. Cute kid in the 2nd pic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 She doesn't look like she wants you taking her Joker toy away. Personally, I wouldn't try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 My 3 year old son is obsessed with my DX Joker and Two-Face, which are luckily on a high shelf. Every day he has me hold him up high so he can look at them. Sometimes he brings a 6" Batman figure with, and they all have a surprisingly friendly conversation.

karamazov80 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 Just curious, Harley, how could one's existence only be partially over? Sounds like being "partially pregnant." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webhead Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I just took the plunge. Took Shane's advice and checked out gohastings. They had some good prices but the best was through Amazon. Just picked up a Sideshow Darth Vader. Would've liked to get the exclusive for the force choke but didn't see any there and didnt' want to pay the rising prices on ebay. Can't wait to get him. Now I just need to get that stormtrooper for my brother (and now myself as well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webhead Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Webhead, you are gonna regret that move. I hope not. I'd really like to be able to control myself and just get 2 stormtroopers and maybe the Emperor. Oh and then there's Jedi Luke...must stop.
