Well amazon is slowly making up for canceling my bat preoder from back in dec. They sent 1 of the 4 I ordered on may 11 a little early. the rest are coming may 28th and 31st. So far the 3 orders amazon has canceled on me this year due to lack of product have all come back in stock .granted the other 2 items were mcfarlane's which he makes way easier to get his products .
I also noticed HA Roadblock went back in stock @ Amazon almost daily around 8 pm pacific for short periods.(last day that happened seems to be may 16th) In return causing the demand to go down so price went down to 35 with prime. |

Just as a quick example of the "premium" stuff I mentioned, check out Mezco's Cyke figure, who features a light up visor: https://www.ebay.com/itm/25487752322...SABEgI39PD_BwE As an aside, that figure is a reminder of why soft goods aren't my thing. Every time I see Mezco's figures, I just think "extra-expensive Mego". Also, this figure retailed at or around $100. Makes Classified look almost free by comparison.

When I was doing Gundam models I bought a bunch of old hy2m heads which were replacement heads worth a single led that used a magnetic switch and a cr1216 watch battery. They could def make a small light unit without wiring or a button if they wanted to. Changing the battery would be the biggest issue.
Fun idea though. |

Good thing about these delays is, it gives you alot of time to think about the figures you really want lol Cancelled the TigerForce wave no point buying them in hopes they keep it going or get the "real" deco out. I guess Fomo is no more hehe.

Definitely possible dude, they've mucked about with light-ups for ages. the 90's X-Men line was rife with them, though back then, there was some sacrifice in the form of reduced articulation and/or an obtrusive button.

What gets me is the weave of the fabric itself. I really don't even care for it at 1/6 scale, I'd imagine it'd only really start to blend with the figure, er, "seamlessly" at maybe 1/4.

What blows my mind is that my childhood Cyclops from the early 90s still lights up when I flip the switch on his back. My 2019 MacBook Pro battery can't even hold a charge over the weekend. Ha. Apples to oranges, I know.

TNI posted in hand pics of the upcoming retro Lady Jaye. I don't think the first classified figure is a bad one, but I'm liking the look of this one
