Anyone notice Ripclaw has ML parts?

[Van Flyheit]

Mostly just his torso and a couple other parts are from the Black Panther/Wonderman/Sentry etc. mold.

 

Oops, I wonder how that happened @smilepunch@

[AlphaPrime]

And Witchblade shares some Psylcoke and Wasp/Spider-Woman parts(which is one reason Witchblade sucks ass but just one ) and Judge Dredd uses Longshot parts, then in wave two Star uses the Bullseye mold, the three armed guy uses the Absorbing .

Man/Frankenstein mold.

 

I'm sure TB/MT will keep reusing parts when they can to save money like they(and now Hasbro) have always done.

[Kenny28]

Yeah, just about every Marvel Toy/Toy Biz figure reuses parts from other lines....saves quite a bit of money afterall...

[drzenith]

most parts are reused parts.

 

but it is still ok though especially for judge dredd and savage dragon.

[gth_09]

I don't mind recycle parts as long as the figs look good! So far so good!

Thanks for the info

 

I hadn't known about most of those til now.

Yeah but I think this is the first time we've ever seen two competing companies using the molds from the same run of toys at the same time

Nope, its not the first time.

Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves/Superpowers/Batman 89' movie and Marvel Superheroes all used the same dull Kenner mold back at the end of the 90's...off the top of my head that is?!

I don't see why people knock Witchblade. No, she doesn't look as good as a statue would, but she still looks pretty good. Dredd is great, too. He's not very bulky in most of the comics. I think they really captured him. I just opened my Conan 2-pack and it really rocks. Those are 2 great figures. I am loving this line and hope it goes strong for a long time.

[ARES-god_of_war]

Yeah... Hard to believe Toybiz started as a Superpowers knock-off company right?!

Hahahahaha! Nice reply.

Thanks man, citing an example is just what I was looking for.

 

Just out of curiosity, are you sure that those were toys using the same one mold on the shelves at the same time? I only ask because I can't remember that far back.

 

I just noticed a couple weeks ago that Star and about half the new Hasbro stuff fit the bill, using the BE mold and all that.

I agree about Dredd and the Conan pack. I love all 3 figures there.

 

I hate Witchblade. Here is a case where I would have much preferred they use something like the Phoenix mold or a new mold with all the requisite art. intact.

 

But I have to admit, it's at least a step up from the MAC versions.
