Then just get him to have another Standard Gremlin. his main selling point is all his accessories. You can make him the annoying gremlin with the puppet, the "brooding gremlin" that bashes in the head of the annoying puppet Gremlin with a mallet, a poker playing gremlin, etc.

yeah. I mean, yes, Figuarts are obviously more expensive, but you get what you pay for. But I seriously doubt we will ever get a Janemba Figuarts. Why would we, when they can just release Goku again and again?

I really don't like the Dragon Stars line. Their quality is EXTREMELY poor, especially when compared to SH Figuarts ( and the scaling is terrible. Freeza should not be the same height as Goku, and Final Form Cooler should be TWICE Goku's size.) But this is probably my only chance to get a figure of Janemba, so I'll be getting him

Hasbro Fan-First Friday - Power Rangers Live Stream For August 14
Asterix replied to JayC's topic in Action Figure News
I wonder if there is any chance of Hasbro doing some Sentai stuff, such as shows that were not made into Power Rangers, either because they were made BEFORE Zyuranger or Saban entertainment just chose to skip the show for...whatever reason. Maybe they didn't think the theme would translate to a Western audience. This is probably why they've skipped ToQger and Zyuohger. COULD Hasbro make toys of these figures, or is that a whole other licensing issue? Even if they could, would they think it worth it? Kids wouldn't know what rangers they are without a show, but adult collectors probably would. I think it's safe to say most adults out there know Power Rangers origins, and many have actually watched Sentai shows.- 26 replies

This is kinda heartwrenching. I have some great statues from DC Direct. Does this mean no more DC Bombshells?

Hasbro Fan-First Friday - Power Rangers Live Stream For August 14
Asterix replied to JayC's topic in Action Figure News
I am so confused at how passionate fans are about Power Rangers. I just don't get it. Power Rangers haven't really been relevant for over a decade. At least not anywhere near the same extent that they had in the 90s. Besides, the original Super Sentai shows are far better. Have you heard the music in those shows? Catchy as all hell- 26 replies

I think most people who liked Savage World were turned off to it because of the HORRIBLE Quality Control Funko put into it. I've read reviews of DC Primal Age figures breaking right out of the package, legs falling off, etc. As a result, you can get them dirt cheap on Amazon, because no one wants them. It's a shame, because it's actually a really novel theme. But Masters of the WWE has done it FAR better. Good quality figures, good references to the original Masters of the Universe characters, and SUPERB face sculpts. the only downside is that they are Wal-Mart exclusives, and as Wal-mart is absolute trash. So yeah, I'm pretty sure Savage World and Primal Age are cancelled. Blame Funko for their terrible quality control. Because they had EVERYTHING going for them. They were very affordable, especially by today's toy standards, they looked cool, and they had a unique take on two franchises

I personally wish we would get some Asterix figures either made by an American or Japanese toy company. I would kill for a Figuarts of Asterix and Obelix. I'm not gonna hold my breath though. Asterix is pretty obscure outside of Europe. I know it has a small following in America, but I don't know if they even know what Asterix is in Japan

MDS IT (1990) Deluxe Pennywise Figure From Mezco Toyz
Asterix replied to JayC's topic in Action Figure News
Mezco initially teased this on their Twitter with a picture of balloons. Quite a few people were guessing we'd be getting a One:12 Tim Curry Pennywise. I wonder how how many people are pissed off at this. I think this is kinda cool., not sure if it's cool enough to buy- 4 replies

Yeah, Rat King is a popular villain for the turtles. I am sorta ambivalent about him.

I don't have a specific budget . I just try not to let things get out of control. I generally won't pay over $100 for a single item though. I will make some exceptions though, like Earthrise Scorponok. Scorponok is my favorite Transformer and I must have him

What figures would you love to buy if you win a 100$ contest?
Asterix replied to K9K1N6's topic in General Toy Talk
more NECA Gremlins. You cannot possibly have enough of these adorable little monsters -
I guess it depends on whether these accusations are true as to whether he should have lost his job. Although if there are multiple different accusers, I mean, that's pretty suspect.

Is Walmart Price Gouging It's Customers On MOTU Origins Figures?
Asterix replied to JayC's topic in Action Figure News
It looks like price gouging, to be honest. Just another reason to hate Walmart. Do you have any idea how much I hate that the Masters of the WWE figures are complete Walmart exclusive? It's an exercise in frustration whenever I go to hunt for them- 31 replies

I hope they do this. I REALLY want that Muckman they're making. Muckman was my favorite Ninja Turtles toy as a kid. I STILL have my original Muckman figure. I also hope Super 7 gives us an updated Muckman with the classic toy look

I always found it weird that we got a Toxic Crusader cartoon for kids, considering how risque the studio involved with the movies are. Nice looking figure though.
