Just a couple hours before the Empire Strikes Back 40th Anniversary Black Series poll they ran in 2019 ended, Lobot had a strong lead over Dagobah Luke. Luke was announced as the winner after the poll closed.

Yeah, I kinda prefer it this way.

Since we know this isn't a Transformers board, lets keep this thread from becoming a Transformers discussion and focus on Marvel Legends, please.

Did you watch the review? The gloves have spots. They're just dark yellow/orange instead of black.

I've seen it in person. It is.

I wish there was a neutral (or even pissed but not yelling) head without a bandana instead. It would give the figure more versatility and probably wouldn't look as bad. I saw this thing back in San Diego and even though I did talk to Dwight and Dan, I kinda held my tongue about it. I don't know if it's helpful or unhelpful to say "It seems like every time you guys make a yelling head, it just looks ridiculous." I suppose I could have figured out a better way to phrase it, but I had other stuff I wanted to talk to them about, anyway. That yelling head reminds me a lot of The Hood. Just awful. Ah well. I might have grabbed this otherwise, but it's not like I want Mr. Ickyhands. I'll just keep waiting for them to take another shot at a Bradstreet style Punisher.

Oh, it's the same diorama stand they're using for the Deluxe Edition Batman Returns 2.0. Swap a couple of things here and there...Sure. Why not?

It's a streaming network created and owned by Amazon but separate from Amazon Prime Video. As to why it's a thing...some dumbass executive saw the Disney+ and Hulu situation and wanted that, too, I guess.

MGM+ in the US. Prime Video in the rest of the world.

I really wish MGM+ wasn't a thing. Maybe it won't be by the time this airs.

I liked Shang Chi. I thought it was good. Was it in the MCU's top ten? No. I definitely wouldn't rank it in the lower third of the movies, either. It's probably near the middle for me. With 34 movies in the MCU now, something can still be good and near the middle at the same time.

Congratulations!

The comic-based Hono studio figures from Hot Toys have all been reasonably priced for the most part. No Marvel Studios or likeness rights tax, I guess.

Yeah, Odin's a god. I can excuse the extra height more easily than I can a human character like Kingpin.

Grabbed two Venom statues yesterday morning. I really wish it was a double statue with an injured Spider-man to better represent the #316 cover, but otherwise, I couldn't pass it up.

That's a grenade launcher.

WB, under previous leadership anyway, has done exactly the same thing. Studios seem to be terrified of comic book movies about villains who actually are villains or stay villains the whole time. Also they really butchered the **** out of Johnny Cash's "When the man comes around" for that trailer. Yikes.

Congrats, Zombiesnstuff!

I don't know what happened with the whole 7PM thing, but Death's Head is available for preorder at our sponsor Big Bad Toy Store now.

Desperate...cynical...gimmicky at best. Yeah.

This looks to be a second re-release of their Age of Ultron Hulkbuster from a few years ago. It sold for about $800, and then about $1200 the second time, so I'm gonna venture a guess that it'll be at least a few hundred dollars more now. $1500 or even $1600, maybe.

The biggest difference is that this doesn't need to reach a minimum number of orders in order to be made. It's gonna happen regardless. The second biggest difference is that there probably will be no tier extras, but we can't totally rule that out just yet.

Charley Feldman (supervising producer on the first two seasons and writer of about a third of the episodes) was the obvious choice to takeover as showrunner. I guess she must have quit after DeMayo was fired. Too bad. I doubt highly this show's quality will continue penned by the writer of some of What If?'s worst episodes. Also a couple of their best, but that's not a high bar.

If this is MGM+ in the US, I'm thinking I'm never gonna get a chance to watch it.

That would be my guess.
