On the Subject of Mogwai Guest Article By Paul Schifferli
mightiest_mortal replied to JayC's topic in Action Figure News
Cool summary. I always think that some of the "rules" are psychosomatic. It explains the loose nature of things like eating after midnight. -
Bay-Turtles from Outer Space!
mightiest_mortal replied to featofstrength's topic in Properties From The 80 & 90's
Well after much deliberation I've decided to give them the benefit of the doubt... for the moment. Aliens are a stupid idea. Being mutants is part of the name and part of the concept. It's all in the name. It would be like Doing Robo-Cop but deciding he would be better half-alien instead of half-robot. Coupe of things tho... 1) They KEEP bringing up the fact that the Ooze has always been extra terrestrial in nature. 2) They keep insisting that they've not really changed it and theyve just "built on what was already there". So Here's my theory... The Turtles are "a part of" an "alien" race of Mutants. Ie. There's a whole "race" of various mutants of all different shapes and sizes. Almost like a race of Mutanimals. Maybe the whole lot of them are results of experimentation on a planet gone awry. The Turtles ARE FROM EARTH, but being mutated by this alien ooze to some extent makes them a part of this Alien Race of Mutants, as they have a connected origin. The same way the turtles (in the cartoons at least) saw other mutants as part of their wider family. What does anyone else think? -

mightiest_mortal replied to shokker's topic in Masters of the Universe

-
Hi.. in the Hasbro podcast I noticed a SHS Prof X in one of the images, but I've not been able to find any other information about this or any other pictures.. Does anybody know what wave it will be in or if it will be in the next box set? Thanks

A "Giant" line? The characters you want to be supersized
mightiest_mortal replied to jahue's topic in Marvel
They REALLY need to release Giant Man and a Sentinel as Icons. Both would easily fit in to the line and the sentinel especially would sell a lot. -
Wave 6 Mini Statues (Stactions) revealed!!!
mightiest_mortal replied to firestongue's topic in Masters of the Universe
the thing is.. the Staticons allow for more Dynamic posing. Im not too keen on another He-Man, but If they release him, Sword above his head, mouth open yelling, in traditional "I HAVE THE POWEEEERRR" Pose.... he would be an AWESOME figure. -
Trench Coat Cyclops = One of the coolest figures ever. dunno why but i love it, Probably my personal fave from my collection. also, for the perfect Wolverine, get series 1 super articulated wolverine and remove his head. Series two Claw strike Wolverine has the Best sculpt head of any movie Wolvie figure so get that and remove his head, putting on the Season1 body (youl have to reshape the neck a fair bit mind) Season 2 Magneto is a dead on sculpt also.

Spider-man Action Figures Not Enough For Ya?
mightiest_mortal replied to Snowman81's topic in Marvel
That spider sapien looks terrible imo -
OMFG... They should so release that
-
AWwwww i havnt even seen season 1 yet in this country
-
Any word if we're ever going to get a Katara? id love the main 3 cast (or even Toph aswell) sat on an Abba to stick on my display,, but won't really bother if theyre not releasing her. Its like selling all the fantastic four apart from invisible woman.

You know what suprises me about ML? (both TB AND Hasbro)
mightiest_mortal replied to yojoebro82's topic in Marvel
I seriously hope they release Jamie id build an army of him. They should release Guido aswell witha mini Layla Miller. -
Hasbro's Marvel Legends Icons Series - Wave 1 Arrives
mightiest_mortal replied to Ryno's topic in Marvel
http://i.toynewsi.com/g/index.php?mode=vie...600&start=0 My imagination, or is he looking a bit like Seagal there? -
Im wondering if anyone knows if they are, or if theyre just restricted to the TV series and the Spinoffs? For years ive been dying for some Movie Maniacs style versions of the Anubis, Ra and Horus from the movie. The designs were awesome. With the quality of the new SG1 line, I think Diamond could do them some justice.
-
So does anyone actuall have any SHS or seen any reviews? I want to know if people with them actually think theyre any good or not.

Invisible Woman and Dr. Doom are the 4th set in this wave. If you look at the description/listing for the Torch/Surfer set, there is a typo that mentions the 4th set... Sue and Doom. So the 4 is very much complete, its just that they messed up the listings/no one caught it and there's no pic for it yet. Sweet mini Doom, cant wait. I really love the look of these, if they can go for as long as the Star wars ones have we could have all manner of characters available. I cant wait. Hope they make it to the uk...

Is hasbro still including the AXM Cyclops in its 3rd wave?
mightiest_mortal replied to Ghosts of Razgriz's topic in Marvel
With all the Astonishing figures in the wave i think its safe to assume the BAF will be the Big wild sentinel that destroyed genosha. ...tho not exactly how big it would be with the current size of BAFs. -
unmmm... I dont see how Hasbro could possibly ruin the legends line. I was under the impression that it was the same toybiz people sculpting and designing them all anyway, for at least the first few waves, so theyd be exactly the same if they were made by Toybiz. the only big difference people may see is in the actual quality of the figures, paint aps, joints etc, but I think were going to have to wait for the first waves to come out before we can make any comparisons on these. (still not keen on Emmas face sculpt)

What is the one Marvel Legends that you want to see made?
mightiest_mortal replied to x-man-2005's topic in Marvel
My ultimate wave would be... Madrox (current Costume.. I would seriously buy 10 of them) Cyclops (alex ross costume) Winter Soldier Jack of Hears Chamber (churchill costume) Maggott Joseph Layla Miller (she knows stuff) -
I've only got one Sentinel. It looks too much like Rover for me to army build with. I love Rover and love the sentinel, but it doesn't look "classis" enough. Why don't they just make an Icons Old school Sentinel. That would be sooo cool. And a COTA Sentinel in the Legends line would be AMAAAAAAZING!!!!

yes! another bucky/winter soldier lover in the house! brubaker is the man! I only read the winter soldier aarc so that I could slag Marvel off for bringing back Bucky... but HOT DAMN it was good. With the recent release of currently popular characters such as X23, Young Avengers, Spiderwoman, I'd be really suprised if we dont see a figure of Winter Soldier within the next year or two.

hmmmm... hmmmmmm..... doesnt look bad... but it NEEEEDDSSS his coat to complete the look.
