my gold brutus and ghost set from ross with the swivel base thing was missing the base. im half pissed i paid ross full price for it and im half not pissed because 5 bucks is how much they are separately at ross each. i threw out what was left of the base and gave my son the gold brutus and kept ghost brutus for myself.

I got Mothmando, man what a nice figure it is probably one of the best of the regular figures.

Mothmando is pretty perfect.

Speaking of cool figures, Jazwares social media just promoted IO Guard, Madcap, Snap and Zadie as "Available now in stores at Walmart".

Not sure whether to believe it, as Jazwares hardly ever seems to know what's going on and their social media posts aren't usually well-timed to when things actually drop.

But there's hope. No reports yet, so post here if you see them.

Swung by my Walmart today and they had zero Jazwares fortnite products on the shelf. They had a couple figures on the pegs in December, so maybe this will trigger a restock.

Line is showing as discontinued within Walmart's system, so ...

Couple of updates:

The Gunnar/Grimoire/Malik/Hotwire wave is showing up on eBay and in Walmart's system, so it should be available soon. Not sure if Walmart is going to update their revision to include Fortnite or if it's going to be moved to a separate location.

Slurp Bandolette is still listed as available on Walmart's website if anyone is still looking for her.

Another random question: how much variation is there in the size(s) of the sockets on the bottom of the feet? I just noticed that some figures have smaller sockets than the normal Jazwares size, but are just about right for most modern size (2.5mm) stands (e.g. MTF, ME Joe, etc.). I don't use stands too often, and most of my Fortnite panels just sit in a tote unused, so this escaped my attention for a while.

Also, what is the actual size of the pegs Jazwares uses? These seem to be about 3mm, which would be nearly in-between the modern 2.5mm and the vintage 3.4mm.

Just found three new figures hanging on the pegs at my Walmart. Gunnar, Grimoire and Malik. That's all that was left and just one of each. Pretty nice figures.

YOINKS 4 new FNs at WM and dig them.* I left the 2 King Tomatos as I've got him twice already without the crown.* Grimoire is the easy winner here for me, but I'll need to trim up her skirt to let her sit down.* Her wig isn't glued in place and I kinda like her going bald, but the socket ruins the look.* And I want to figure out a way to make her gasmask wearable.

Hotwire is *very* cool.* I'm gonna use him as 'Electricity Pyro' that can control electricity but needs a production source for it. He's pretty much perfect out of the package, except he's got a flipped neck joint with the hinge then the swivel peg plugging into the torso; due to his head being clear yellow electricity and them likely wanting to save costs casting just one piece instead of two.* The only problem is that the collar comes up so high I can't get any leverage to crack the hinge and the clear plastic stretches instead of applying pressure to the hinge.* And holy shit I literally just noticed he's got butterfly shoulders as well.*


Malik is a very cool character and I dig the shit out of his sword.* His tunic limits his torso artic too much so I'll likely trim it up to let his legs move.* I'm thinking I'll need an MTF belt to cover the surgery, tho.* The cape will get eliminated entirely as I just don't dig plastic capes much esp when perma-glued in place.* I very much appreciate the slimmer proportions for all three but the elbow joints still need to be trimmed back so they can bend to a right angle, as KD has long noted.*

I also got the new purple Moisty Merman for customizing grins.* He's got the new hip engineering with the thigh swivel and the swivel/hinge/swivel ankles that the others lack, with just typical hinge/swivel rockers.
