  1. This will give people nightmares & for other's this is what they needed all along....I'm disturbed that they made this & no one thought make a Gina Davis in bikini from Earth Girls are Easy.....God help us if they make a statuette of the Giant pile of Triceratops Poo & Dr. Ellie Sattler....wonder what this will go for Clearance Clarence on the BBTS website in a few months?...just askin for a friend.....I think I know what YoJoeBro is getting for Xmas this year....
  2. Hey Hey kids....it's the Intergalactic Rockband Duo "Smuggler's Blues"!!….or maybe "Solo Survivors"?.....Han's facial expression looks like he's already married....Leia looks great....how's about a Gamorean Guard on Drums?
  3. Just as long as he doesn't ride in standing on top of 2 dolphins we should be good....or riding anything other than a Shark the size of Texas or even a stolen Batmobile would be acceptable..... on another note.....women like my girlfriend think this version of Aquaman is very hot, however what "they" fail to factor in is yes he is a man of Godlike stature but he still smells like the Ocean & probably not the good parts...if any...if this is sounds & smells like sour grapes that's okay....it still doesn't smell fishy....good look though...
  4. Wow, lots of solid work & great pieces.....makes you wish you won the lottery...the Real Ghostbuster was the icing on the cake...I passed on all the latest GB waves that filtered through Walmart & Target....I may have to pick the team up....they look great...
  5. Red Dead 2 should be out soon..I can't wait but Battlefield V is coming out in Nov, they should keep me busy for a while....Red Dead looks awesome... I've been playing Battlefield 1on Xbone since it released. While the gameplay is not completely true to history they do provide a lot historical knowledge. One of the special Melee weapons they suit you up with is the Totokia. Its a club that strongly resembles the Sandpeople's weapon of choice...needless to say it is rather fun to club enemies into the ground with & more times than not you have to give the Sandpeople's War Cry....& sometimes that overzealousness gets one killed as well lol....
  6. Old Man Luke is currently abundant & in the Clearance Clarence section at Target....Still $15 from last week....just a heads up if you were on the fence & Luke was telling you get off his lawn....that Solo Set with the Rebel Leader & Speeder bike looks amazing by the way...the price is not however....I still need to get a Dewback set....lol
  7. Went out Saturday to see if I could come up w/any TF Triple Changers, (WheelJack gave me a heads up) mainly looking for Blitzkreig & Astrotrain…..didn't see much but found another ML 12" to add to my hero roster...were gonna sneed a few villains after a bit....I still want to snag up Wolvy, Tchalla & the Hulk... this is a "variant" version of Deadpool..in the toy crowd we call it a "cashgrab"...I wasn't able to get the regular DP so this will do...I snagged him up for $25 & some change....the "Rainbow" Deadpool sets were marked down to $32..... Sorry about the crappy pic...but this was the best pic....maximum 1/2 arsed effort I know....
  8. With the Nostalgia train running routes all over our lives, I have to ask the Funko's, The Super 7's, the anyone's & especially Nintendo??? Where are my Pro-Wresting Figures 2 pack Sets at?...Starman Vs The Amazon, Kin Corn Karn vs King Slender, Hayabusa vs Giant Panther...with all three sets you build that crappy 8 bit ring of death & you also get a carboard judge.....its just a matter of time....they'll get sick of umpteen Mario's & Link's someday soon
  9. while I'm not digging the scale, the lack of detail, articulation...these would work in a old Shogun Robots kinda theme...12" inch bots...I would plunk down some hard earned credit for that, if it looked cool enough.....other wise just bring back the old figures & vehicles...I realize litigation is still ongoing...
  10. I think the general consensus on this He-man is....he needs to come with more obvious "Roid Rage"....he's kinda scrawny for MOTUC standards....I think the original King Randor(he always reminded me of the Burger King on Roids) is more "swoll up" than this realer, healthier, less meat hulk, He-ster....I really dig Skeletor once again....lotsa great detail there....
  11. Just like most things that are "revived" these days....They'll bring it back for the Nostalgia train to cash in but cancel it after 2 seasons...then it'll be related to the Shopping malls & die a slow undignified death like Kaybee & Toysrus….I think most of us are really glad to see the return of the Marvel Legends Exclusive's, the condensed aisle of Neca & weirdo toys. And maybe Hasbro is in the mood to make some bad decisions & bust out a small but uncommited line of G.I. Joes.....if they want to just break the bank make that a 6" line exclusive like the 1st few waves of the Star Wars Black line. And Geoffrey is back too....don't forget that...poachers didn't get him after all...I heard he was at rehab with Batfleck...most people miss the store but I really miss the fact that sometimes they did have the Droids I was looking for & I didn't mind that they were marked up by $10 or more dollars....& their horrible bathrooms weren't winning awards back in the day either...
  12. Didn't watch an lot of She-Ra back in the day, but I'm sure plenty of girls & boys did & this is a way to bond with their kiddos....maybe some kid will be able to turn their folks onto this cartoon & bring back that old feeling of wonder, that they can share together, like finding a new best friend....I think that's why we like what we like & do what we do....all of us were kids once...probably still are in some respects....I kinda dig the new style but its not for me either...maybe one of my nieces will dig it?
  13. I guess it's a Reboot??….Everyone knows Thanos snapped him out of existence...they were planning on bringing him back in Avengers 4.....
  14. Great Commercial...somebody really outta go back & redo a few more from the wide variety of 80s toys.... I'm a little shaky on He-man but I like that Skeletor…for the ahem..serious collector lol....that collector's price is steep.....but I see the realism they were going for....they look fairly solid in the commercial...I was waiting for Battlecat or Beastman to pop up outta nowhere though....
  15. If I had any of these sets I wouldn't be selling them...this is purely hypothetical....I just wanted to hear other ideas from other Joe fans. If were not getting Joes on the regular well maybe Hasslebro can put out a few sets at comic cons or toy cons throughout the year....
  16. Since the drought continues, here it is.....Hasbro use to release GI Joe vs Transformers set at SDCC every year. I remember the feeling of seeing a Starscream/Skystriker for the first time. I was excited & completely blown away on that first go around...problem was they had to use repaints often so while I did appreciate the effort it was a little labored. So this is completely hypothetical. If you had your druthers what would you come up with. It doesn't have to be just Joes Vs Tfs….I really dug all the 7 packs the 25th Ann & later lines put out. The Arctic & Desert sets for the Joes were pretty cool. Battle of Cobra Island sets were pretty slick as well. I'm thinking so Hasbro doesn't put out Joes on the regular but how's about 2 sets a year...something like the Club but with more financial juice...…. 1. I'm an obscure man, so another shot at the Oktober Guard set. 2. Joe vs Tranformers set GI Joe-Killer Whale/Seaspray Vs Cobra-Hydrofoil/Dreadwing-Figures inc. Shipwreck/Polly, Cutter & ahh how about Xamot & Tomax..even throw in the little ATV 3. Cobra Law Set Vs GI Joe the Movie figs....Globulus, Nemesis Enforcer, Pythona, Cobra LAW troops, Cobra Commander pre-Joes Vs. Sgt Slaughter, Big Lob, Jinx, Law & Order, Lt. Falcon, Tunnel Rat, Chuckles... 4. M.A.S.K. concept set. They already made Matt Tracker howsabout a small VENOM vs MASK set....more to follow
  17. I would be down to see what someone could do with 3D printing & make some 6" scale classic style figs...complete with the crazy articulation & rubber bands and all...I'm not saying the whole line but at least Stalker & Cobra Commander...
  18. Soooooo….I hate to ask but did anyone open their Sets?? I passed on this but still wanted to know if it was cool?..Did you put it up for display w/your Cobra Army? Where you able to make it looks somewhat cohesive or does it come across at as a phony backdrop for when Cobra Commander is making fiery speeches & threating the world? How did it compare w/the Original Set? Is it going to outlast Keith Richards? Should they have just went the full monty & just made the dam@ thing for real? Thoughts, Opinions, Apathy?......
  19. After watching the Cardinals lose....again..... I was out finishing some laundry, I have to pass by my toy stash to access the dryer & some days I usually pick a box just to see what's inside...today's box had some more nostalgia therapy for the soul....M.A.S.K. !!….I became a kid for at least an hour while I was checking out the condition & how to convert some of the vehicles....I need to pick up a few more of the originals but this was a decent score from a garage sale? a few years back....I remember paying a few bucks to some kid who wanted to get rid of these beauties & buy some video games....
  20. ouch dam$....just like that I'm off the Wagon....these are amazing....that WindRaider has a home at my place....great figs...
  21. I'm very interested & excited to see what will happen in the Fisher Price Extended Universe? The Little People Playsets?? The Airport, The Farm, The Family House?...all that has so much Sick potential.....if & when they starting writing the Trilogy, I would hope the last Movie would deal with Parking Garage....so much history there & its a tragic & brave story that needs to be told & brought to the big screen...Given that Hollywood treatment that makes all things whole & wonderful & not at all exploited for massive amounts of cash.....lol *In my Movie Announcer Voice* This Winter the Rock squares off against Nicholas Cage a greedy developer who has illegally built a "Parking Lot" on the Rock's family sacred land where his ancestors are buried....the climax of the film actually has the Rock fighting the actual Parking Structure, of course all the actors are made through CGI to look like the actual little people toys from the 80s..there's an intense plastic car chase inside the structure like the old Steve McQueen Movie "The Hunter".....more to follow....
  22. In these time of Woe & Want, who couldn't use an extra 100 bones to frill away on Little Plastic Treasures?....I just perused the Megalopolis storesite….pretty cool stuff....lets see who the ToyGods bless next on this endeavor?...
  23. So one summer when I was a lad before the "Guitar" was part of my moniker, my Mom took us on a Chevy Chase like tour of America. I'm Native American, I was lucky enough to be raised during the wonderful PopCulture80s....We followed what we called the Powwow trail (not making this up) much like Deadheads of the last age we followed festival to festival that summer, living in KOA's & Campgrounds & relatives couches....every foul thing that plagued the Griswolds kinda of hit home with that trip....but a little bit of sunshine was I had a paper route & would lose that paper route by getting fired for taking that vacation lol but I had money saved up from the whole deal. My best friend was allowed to come along for some strange reason, we had 6 kids & 3 adults packed into a Chevy Astro Van..we played Cards & Dominoes read the same comics over & over again & waited for the stale smell of car farts & Cheetos to waft away in the open window breezes......in Montana my awesome Mom stopped at a Walmart...I discovered the thrill of the hunt from way back but this was out of state....it was Glorious...We discovered MEGa FORCE...I didn't know this was a thing?? Between my friend & I, We bought about 80% of the what they had on the shelves which probably wasn't much but to our childlike minds it was the thing of dreams....this was the First time I saw Mega Force toys & I fell really really hard....They were so easy to lose & if you stepped on the metal planes God help you.....these toy sets were like breath of fresh air....They were easy to sneak into places like Church, School, Movies, Clothes Shopping, Laundromats, Powwows, Sacred Ceremonies when you get bored but your mom & aunty woop you for being disrespectful. I have a few of the old Planes & Helicopters packed away from garage sale finds. I've salivated over them on Ebay though.....Best summer trip, we spent hours playing with these toys, my buddy & I traded our stuff back & forth.....it was easy to latch on like Joes & Cobra, Autocons & Deceptibots…..but we lost a lot of the missles & gunnery....I had all the Big Vehicles except the Green Plane..I regret not buying it then & now....We had such an awesome time...we knew we were big cheeses when all the other kids at the campgrounds tried to steal them.....I bought more when got back home that summer but it's a treasured memory....I apologize for the crappy reference pics...they were super small though....
  24. saw one today in Phx, well Tempe really..it was glorious & $50+ dollars....cool but a little to steep for my tastes..just one pack...I only stopped at one Gamestop…I hate to admit this but I think I have 10 of those old AIM soldiers from the Wave about 3 years back?..Just don't have the enforcer...
