Now thats not to say that in a few years people could be hunting for these to fill in the gap of their collections.

I love that line. Always pick them up to have battles with my kids! Also great custom fodder. Long live O-Rings!!!!!!

Yup. I posted the photos in the Star Wars thread.

Love every one of them. Joe goes out in style and now I get hit with these Black Figure reveals. I'm looking forward to 2014.

There is a Snowspeeder Pilot Wedge in another link. I posted him here:

Jedi Training Luke is getting absolutely killed on Rebelscum. Granted it's a horrible display piece - perhaps the worst Hasbro has evern thrown together for a con. The fanboys hate it for the ball joint crotch, wide legs, oversized Yoda bag. Fug them muddafuggas. More for me.

My Kenner Dagobah playset is filling out nicely - OTC Spirit Ben & Muddy R2, TVC Dagobah Landing Luke & Bespin Luke, VOTC Yoda, and now BS Training Luke with BS Yoda in the backpack. And in the background is the swamp covered Luke X-Wing. Soo want to veg out to ESB right now.

If anyone wants Star Wars stuff, I'm selling a bunch. 95% of it is still factory sealed.

His hand is nearly severed because of it.

Hasbro quality control at its finest. My Wave 3.5 Duke has an ankle that swivels left to right instead of front to back. It kind of limits the posing options to "I don't think my ankle is supposed to bend that way..." which actually fits well with the expression on his face. That's the first time I've seen a pin inserted the wrong way, the closest before that was an elbow that was missing the pin entirely and was just barely connected (that soldier is now an amputee). Seems to be a lot of that going around with this wave.

I'm not a huge DC fan but an a fan of DC movies. We're getting 4" versions of Christopher Reeves Superman, Terrance Stamp General Zod, Michael Keaton Batman, Danny Devito Penguin, and Michelle Pfieffer Catwoman.

The bright spot is a 4" Christopher Reeve Superman. That headsculpt looks very good. Of course in typical Mattel fashion, they left out knee articulation. I just hope these are close to MU size and not Injustice or Infinte Heroes size.

Does your Kwinn's right hand move left and right or up and down?

Thanks, this is really bugging me.

I just opened up my 3.5 fire fly and realized it has two of the same treads for the hiss tank which is the only reason I bought this figure! The lack of quality control at Hasbro is criminal! Some on should slap the 6 yr old that packaged these things!

Yeah, I hear you. The neck peg on my Flint comes completely out of the body but that is a simple glue job. Kwinn's hand is just a mangled mess though. It's really too bad because these are such great figures!

"Hi! hey guys need some insight. I want to sell my joe vs cobra (loose and 95 percent every figure complete w weapon and prob file card) into the direct line (I believe every figure except the ones that went to the club) (loose and 95 percent every figure complete w weapon and prob file card) All in very good shape and I want to sell as a lot. I would separate but I just don't remember what goes with what. I was just curious what the community might think is a fair price. thanks for any input."

Thanks for all the great feedback guys!

Now you guys know why I like to see the figures I buy in person. I HATE manufacturing errors and I HATE having to return stuff.

Just the other week I had to return a Generations Sandstorm because he had two of a part, instead of proper left and right parts. This totally botched him turning into a car or heli properly. Fucking QC.

Seeing how this wave of Joes is barely in stores, it makes it all the more difficult to pull the trigger on buying a case of them online.

Yeah it sucks when you can't see the exact item prior to purchasing. The worst part is I passed on him twice in stores since i had him coming in from a preorder.*F'ing BS!
