Pete Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Bring on the pictures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Here's some picks. The glasses for Thing will have to be glued on to make them stay. I might have preferred they just be sculpted on. The hover chair is awesome. I hadn't noticed the way the armrests opened until I was positioning for the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks for the pics! Are there tampos on the Doombot or Professor X chest blocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks for the pics! Are there tampos on the Doombot or Professor X chest blocks? Nothing on Doombot, but you can see Prox X's in one of the pictures. They really went all out on him. Also nothing under the variant Trenchcoat Thing...just plain orange fig with blue shorts. No extra pieces other than the sunglasses. I really like how they did the sleaves on Thing's trenchcoat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MST3KFan Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Okay. Seeing the Professor X figure makes me want him even more! The really did go to town on him and his hoverchair. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 has Prof got a hole in his head? why has Prof got a hole in his head?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Is that little stand part of the hoverchair, or is it removable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 thelink: Can you post a picture of the regular Thing if you have the chance? Or what the trenchcoat Thing's face looks like under the hat and glasses? If you can, thank you so much. If you can't, thanks for the pictures you did post.

thelink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Is that little stand part of the hoverchair, or is it removable? It is removable, and it actually balances fine without it. It only slightly raises the chair. Unfortunately the peg/hole is a larger size than the flight stands, so making him hover 3" off the ground is not as easy it chould have been. Prof X does have a hole in his head...which is totally unnecessary for wearing his cerebro helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxcarnage Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 strange, usually when there is a holiday the shipment gets pushed back a day, BUT my LCS has them today! woot! think i will leave work early and check them out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MST3KFan Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 has Prof got a hole in his head? why has Prof got a hole in his head?! Crap, you're right. He does! WTH!? The cerebro helmet couldn't fit correctly or what? Seriously, that is a dumb move on DST's right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I didn't pick up the non-variant Thing pack, but here's a pic of the Trenchcoat Thing taken apart. The hat doesn't come off his head. Here's my version of the 90's X-Men... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthdoughboy Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I got these earlier from a local LCS and I have to say I was disappointed that Ben Grimm was not under the Thing's clothes, but after opening all of the packs, I can now see where all the money of this series went. Prof. X's hoverchair is fantastic and when I saw that Warpath still came with his knives, this went from a great pack to a stellar one. Question: Has anyone figured out how to get Prof. X's blanket to sit on his lap in a convincing way? I can get on there (with the suit off), but it just slides off if you look at it wrong.

thelink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 One more pic...Trenchcoat Thing impatiently waiting for Alicia to wrap up her sculpting for the day so they can go out. When I think of Thing in a trenchcoat, I think of Alicia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 no Ben Grimm bummer-man that hover chair and the Pof-X is wicked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatblockoguy Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Anyone pick up Spidey? The extra arms look removable. Are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) Anyone pick up Spidey? The extra arms look removable. Are they? They are...actually pretty neat how they did it. Don't know anything about the story line, but I think I prefer the way he looks if you put all costumed arms on him instead of the 4 bare arms he comes with, but matching the blues is a little tricky.

jboogie Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I though Professor X had to many details on his face so I scraped them off with an X Acto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Thanks a heap for the pictures, fella's! One last question: Does Thing's hat not come offa his head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystery Man Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I'm also wondering if a previous Thing face from one of the first ones released WAY back will match better with the rest of the plastic than the bright orange one that came out.

Nessex Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Wow - thatnks for the pics thelink! And thanks for the Professor sans jacket jboogie. I'm really excited about this wave after seeing the pics. They've turned out so well. It's just a shame we didn't get the Ben Grim figure underneath Thing . . . i don't really need another Thing figure. Still - i'm stoked about Prof, Warpath, the Doombots & Lizard. This wave is mostly Win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
