Yeah, they did. Just fixed that bit.

There aren't enough John Constantine collectibles out there, and that figure looks mostly great, but that hole in the knee of his slacks seems like a very odd choice.

The point was a group of people armed only with tomahawks and bows and arrows don't seem to pose much of a threat to a seven-foot alien armed with sophisticated hi-tech firepower, and hunting them with such just doesn't seem like something a Predator would do. I haven't seen the last couple movies, so maybe this got changed at some point, but a Predator is a game hunter and only goes after challenging prey. In the first movie, when Arnold was only fighting it with spears and $#!+ the Predator removes its plasma weapon so they're more evenly matched.

Native American, not Aborigine (indigenous Australians), but yeah...doesn't seem very sporting.

Better come with a stand, too. That thing's gonna be impossible to keep from falling over, otherwise.

Yeah, "He's gone into a coma" was originally "He's dead."

It definitely was.

I don't really want to question Denis here, and I love Christopher Walken as an actor and a personality, but he seems maybe a bit too weird to play Emperor Shaddam IV. I'll reserve final judgement, but as a fan of the books and the movies, I think Ralph Fiennes or Kenneth Branagh would be a better fit for what has so far been a decidedly less weird Dune than what David Lynch made 38 years ago.

Bit disappointed they went with Jon Bailey instead of Peter Cullen for the commercial there, but aside from that, It looks great.

I wouldn't expect a dove, but I do wish the grips on the extended Desert Eagle were painted pearl white (or regular white) and that the suppressor were painted silver as well. I wish that M-4 had more realistic shapes, too, but otherwise I'm quite happy with this set.

I'm going to say "vaguely" on one and "no" on two.

Congratulations, @MagnaPrime

It is deluxe, but if you want to make the whole band, you should only need one Nalan Cheel and can use multiple Figrin D'an figures for the other members. They have the same heads and the same body, so the hands should swap.

Yeah, I get that.

Technically you only need one deluxe figure to complete the band, since the only difference is the instruments and the extra hands. If one were to buy 6 Figrin Dans and 1 Nalan Cheel, that should be good. You're still left with a bunch of duplicate wind instruments, but you've spent less than if you bought 4 Figrin Dan figures and 3 Nalan Cheel figures. I think the Ewok village Leia is fine, but it's weird that there's no hint of Wicket. Kind of like how they made General Lando but there's never been any suggestion that Nien Nunb would be made to go with him...kind of like making Bespin Lando and forgetting about Lobot (for TBS anyway, since he's coming in TVC. I think Nien Nunb is, too right? Weird.)

Seems likely. Been waiting a long time for a Pfeiffer Catwoman in 6" or 7" scale. I guess we'll wait longer.

Unmasked looks a lot more like Francois Chau than the first movie Shredder looked like James Saito. Not sure how I feel about that.

Oh, I'd say a bit more than that, like 25 to 30 minutes. Hey, since you watched it four times, maybe you can answer something for me: What the hell happened to Chief Bock? He was there, and then about halfway through the movie he vanished?

No news about Mindbender today means we'll definitely hear about him in June and also tells me that he's almost certainly (in that deluxe packaging, anyway) the SDCC exclusive.

I don't know what made me happier: seeing the Classified Sargent Slaughter rendering or watching Sargent Slaughter make the announcement. He tried, but he had a difficult time hiding the smile on his face.

I guess it depends on your point of view. One might prefer to see some paint added, but this is how the old figure looked:

We don't collect figures anymore. We collect NFTs.

Not to Todd.

Yeah. Kinda sucks that they recast all three main characters, tho.

Cool. Argument stops now.
