Satam

I wanted this Mandarin, too, btw. I would have preferred he either had a static tie or a jacket sculpted in motion like the image below, but Tarot's not the only one. Okay? Good. Dan Yun's post is an extremely good indication that we'll get him in robes or armor or without a shirt or something in the not too distant future (I would wager a year or less for the next Mandarin figure), so yeah. Try waiting for Hasbro to make a good Bradstreet style Punisher in Legends (I'm not counting the 2007 one with the poor articulation and blue shirt, because it really isn't all that good). I guarantee you'll get three more Mandarin figures before I ever get that.

I actually like that version of the Mandarin, but boy do I not need a repaint of an Iron Man armor I already heave, even if it does come with an unhelmeted Tony Stark head and slightly better articulation.

I don't think Robbie Reyes or his car was the problem. The price of the car, the fact that it had been redesigned to be legally distinct from a Charger was the problem. These two factors made it slower to take off than they'd hoped, and then it missed the early bird (who in their right mind makes the driver of the car an early-bird unlock?), which made people even less interested...because who wants a car without a driver? Throwing in the Robbie Ghost Rider head and hood to use with an existing Johnny Blaze Ghost Rider figure was too little too late, and a little insulting. A Fantasticar would make a lot of sense if Hasbro Marvel tries another vehicle Haslab. I'm not sure that a Punisher van would fund, but at least if they made it generic, I doubt people would mind. It might fund, but it probably wouldn't go gangbusters. I also think a lot of people who wanted a Punisher van already grabbed one from Ramen, which wouldn't help.

I preordered this from Sideshow, because I had about $80 in rewards and a bunch of them were gonna be expiring today, tomorrow, Sunday... And I love that silly-ass '80s movie, too. It's bad. But I still love it.

Congratulations, Jeddostotle7!

To anyone having trouble with Pulse processing your credit card, if you have Paypal, try that. It circumvents a good bit of Pulse's messed up check out system and seems to work very consistently for most people. Edit: Beat me to it by 20 seconds. Great minds, bruv.

Don't bite yourself. It might hurt.

I think her hair looks grey instead of blonde. Hot Toys usually doesn't have a problem with hair color like that. It's weird.

Congratulations, raziel0203!

Exactly. And he did wear the skull.

I had the same thought when I noticed that shirt while watching X-Men '97. Also, I don't care what anyone says. Music Band is my favorite band bar none!

Yeah, I'm gonna lock this.

Well, they did try to release a generic muscle car masquerading as Robbie Reyes's Dodge Charger as a Haslab a few years ago, but that campaign was screwed from the get-go and failed, as I think most here will recall.

Hey, congratulations, TheArrow!

Congratulations, Air-Walker!

Gotta ask @JayC about that.

How'd you get a $20 off coupon from EE?

Not sure how this got missed, but I'm addressing it now. @Dman20 Threads like this do not belong in the Buy-Sell-Trade section, which is set up only for members to buy, sell, and trade with each other. This thread is now in the General section, where it belongs.

There's a chance anything is true. There's a chance she's been cast to play Chameleon. It's extremely unlikely, but there's a chance.

Emma Stone is a natural blonde. But your general point stands: an actress's hair color can be changed, and what we're used to seeing on her doesn't lock her into any particular role.

Same. I would have missed Ayelet Zurer as much as Deborah Ann Woll. Maybe more.

Yep. Not too much longer, now, though. Apparently Hasbro's doing a presentation at 5:30 ET.

I'll make a note of that. Thanks.

Laval is a pretty cool town. Mrs. Satam has family there. What's the name of the store?

Congratulations, MvCfan!
