Darth Vader looks like if he suffers from dwarfism, the rest looks ok, according to the style of the line.

As for me, the film 'Train to Busan' is the best Korean movie of all time displayed on Netflix. It really keeps in tension until the end. Truthfully, I was surprised by the level of Korean cinematography. I am sure it has a great and successful future.
Who cares?, who´s talking about korean films anyway?.

I think this line is an affordable line for kids that also is meant to hit the nostalgia spot for those who collected the original figures. For those wanting MOTUC this line isn't for them and I agree I am looking more foraward to seeing the Masterverse stuff.
I totally agree, it's sheer nostalgia, I'm still skeptical to the idea that the franchise is going to have a demand among children again, I just dont see this happening, are mostly adults who are talking about this line, old fans people getting it for themselves. I really hope that more details about the Netflix and Motuverse series will be officially revealed...or leaked by somebody. Dunno, since I couldn't collect MOTUC as I would have liked, I hope Motuverse is at least fun to collect, the action figure collecting is becoming into a frustrating hobby to me.

Are they going to end up looking just as bad as the WW 84 figures?, We'll see.
-
So, it's some kind of experiment to test the waters for a future spawn line or what?
-
hmm...they look nice, however they still don't convince me to goet back with this line and think about the martyrdom that will be getting them all discourages me even more...
-
Interesting. Although in my opinion there is still a lot to work on in terms of distribution. I still think that the sale of these figures should be of a general nature or at least restricted only to etailers, something curious that happened to me in these last weeks before the holidays is that I discovered that a chain of stores carried them to my country, but the price seemed hilarious to me, almost 90 bucks per 2 pack.

Hmm, I have to ask, does it have a custom paintjob?, looks too good to be of factory origin. Nice figure anyway.
-
Great, I'd be tempted to go back to the SHFA, but the price of these things has increased in recent years and I still got the base Goku with a scratch dent in its shirt paint.
-
I wonder what scale it is.
-
Nice set, it's a good option to get Black Series C-3PO and R2-D2 at a reasonable price.

Can't say I disagree with you there... especially regarding distribution. Locally we went from totally empty pegs (collector's gobbling them up before they could even get put out) to them falling off the pegs. Would have helped to smooth the curve with more initially and less later on.
And believe me, even though the exclusivity period with Walmart has ended and other retailers can sell them, that is not going to change things much, the distribution will still leave a lot to be desired, the best option will still be to get them online and well it is now when we will see the test of fire of the franchise, if this time around it can be kept afloat at the retail.

Those ships don't look so Star Wars 'ish to me and those nihil guys look more like taken from some Steampunk or Post apocalyptic fan art, but I certainly find it an interesting project even though I never noticed any event prior to Episode I in the previous canon and at the moment other projects place the action more in the imperial or post-imperial period.

Not sure if I may have missed it. But I'm new to this site. Are we going to be getting a new Boba Fett Mandolarian figure?
Not yet, at least they haven't said it.

It was one of those on my wish list, at least in its favor I must say that I like the fact that the symbol of the USSR is actually sculpted and not just a decal.

I must admit, at least "the scientist" looks good.

Being honest under other circumstances this would have caused me a lot of joy, but all I have is a mixture of feelings, the line did not turn out what I expected, the distribution here sucks, online are also almost non-existent and the quality was not even the minimum of my expectations. I wouldn't know whether to give them another chance or just wait for Motuverse and pray for it to be better.

Now I wonder if there are possibilities of figures based on Dinosaur Attack cards next.
-
-
Yup, they look heinous, but that's in order with the style of the cards, If the price was $10 bucks per figure, we'd have a deal by now.

Highly likely with a big budget movie, although first you would have to see how this is the movie in and how the characters are adapted to the live action format. Personally I would prefer figures based on miniatures, illustrations and all conventional D&D media .

What no one seems to be talking about is how damn difficult it is to find this line outside of the US. Hasbro really need to sort out the way they distribute their wares. Surely it can’t be that difficult to allow other territories to use the Hasbro Pulse website?
As someone who lives outside the USA, I understand your feeling, I have not seen more than a few figures from the vintage line in stores of my city and nobody seems to want them, the online availability sucks too, it's just not worth talking about it, the recurring comment seems to be always "I can't find them" and yes I also think that Pulse would be a good distribution tool, but hasbro does not seem to think the same.

Only 6 figures out of 17+ are Target exclusives, so no this isn't even remotely true.
In fact there are 23 figures counting the color variants of Commander Cobra, Scarlett and Roadblock (plus 2 figures that were only teased but of which we don't know the details of their release), and yes, there are 6 Target exclusives (so far), but remember that there are three Pulse exclusives, one Amazon exclusive and one fan channel exclusive, a total of 11 but ok, let's just focus on the target ones.
If you agree with the current situation of the line for me that's great, I don't care, however I reiterate what I PERSONALLY said before: a pity they brought the line back just to handle it this way and I'm certainly not the only one who share that opinion.

Looking again at the packaging of the blue version, I wonder if it would be the beginning of a real line entirely focused on Spawn or it is just another stand alone release.

So, Are they no longer exclusive to Disney stores?
