At least the price hikes are getting news coverage.

Bought a couple from hasbro (not a big hasbro guy. . But I love marvel and gijoes so I take a shot here and there.

The wolverines never have a grip hand?! Or grab hands... and it seems cheap and lame just giving them fists... now I gotta continue my hand search for calverine and inferno weapon x... its very aggravating upping the price and not giving atleast 2 sets of hands.

Need a comic deadpool for this shelf, which figure should i get?

I like the aesthetics most on the maximum but heard some bad things about it
Mafex will probably fit in best, but i wish design was more inline with the other comic mafexs
Im leaning most to revoltech, but the the over stylised design will probably stand out on the shelf, not in a good way.

Had to use some sticky tack but still, pretty good I’d say, for a newbie at the posing hobby

Deep force, the line of figures that didn't make it to the production line yet prototypes are lying around the internet somewhere except for Orcus. With light up features to guide them through the deep seas yet somehow they couldn't find their way to the factory in China to be made and officially sold to the masses. What a great line of figures these would have been. Oh well better than nothing.😁

Another one just in time for Halloween! The Gill-man looks great next to Bella and Frankie.

This this is a work of art,easily the best figure I’ve bought

Having a 3d printer unlocks a lot of head sculpt possibilities.

For this 1989 Batman I used a Black Panther Marvel Legends body, belt from a McFarland Batman, cape from gpslot (ebay), and head sculpt STL from BYECDS.

Painted the head sculpt myself. Came together nicely.

Another dynamite one from good ol' Boss Fight Studio- loving these 1:12 "Epic H.A.C.K.S" figs!

Always nice to see actual decent clearance prices!

"What was that?"

That was literally my reaction when this guy was first revealed. I was in the camp that initially hated how this looked, but upon seeing more reviews, it grew on me. Now that I have him in hand for about a month now, I do have my own thoughts on him.

I'll sing his praises first. The plastic quality is something you'll notice right out of the box. Its plastic is so dense and robust, which is nice for a Bumblebee figure. The sculpt as well is genuinely great, especially the face— pure perfection. I love all of the details they put into the arms, chest, and even his back. As a byproduct of the engineering, he does not have any backpack whatsoever. I also think his proportions are good, albeit a bit too big on the legs. He comes with his claw arm cannon which is nice, but hollow on one side which is a shame if you want to use it for his left arm (which he really didn't in the film). They also attempted to recreate the spikes he had in the film with the wheels, which is an effort, but definitely not the best. The transformation is insanely clever, with all of the car compressing into his legs. It's pretty satisfying once you get the order correct, and the car mode is really nice. Don't really have any complaints there.

Where this guy severely lacks is articulation and paint. As a result of the legs being 90% of the car, the trade-off is just how stiff he is. No ankle tilts, and the knee joints barely feel noticeable. The arms also work in such a weird way, with the shoulders clashing with the wheels, making for a pretty annoying posing session. I'm also not a fan of how the lower wheel struts on mine don't stay plugged in. As much as I enjoy the transformation as well, putting the ball joint sockets in the clear windows worries me, as mine already have cracks. He also really needed more paint. There are so many details in both the arms and torso that are washed out. I would have loved at least some blue on his chest. Lastly, it's a bit annoying how he's now a bit bigger than the other SS Bayverse Bee figures (not counting TLK). Just a weird thing.

He's not great, but not as bad as many think. He has a lot of good things going for it, but I just feel like it wasn't executed well. Still, it's my first AOE Bee figure and I'm happy to have it. I definitely do see this mould as a great Stinger though. Can't wait to see that eventually!
