With the sale several months ago of WWRp Noir De Plume, I felt when he arrived he would need a good display companion in the shape of a vehicle to his scale. I stumbled across a 1/12 scale WW2 looking motorcycle kit by Testors and knew it was destiny.
While the guys have many other things for which to be thankful, for our Thanksgiving post I asked them to share some thoughts on a figure or set of figures that come to mind. We’ll start with Sandman, who decided he would go big or go home.
My Thanksgiving action figure pick is the Big G himself, Hasbro’s Marvel Masterworks Galactus! Why am I thankful for getting this figure? Well, it is quite rare these days that we get a 19-inch, fully articulated, nicely sculpted, giant action figure like Galactus. Just look at the heights of the DC Universe Classics Collect and Connect figures and even Tytus of the Masters of the Universe Classics line, they don’t even come close to his height. His retail price of $50, in my opinion, is fairly reasonable. He looks great with my Marvel Legends AND he looks even better with my Marvel Universe figures! I look forward to being thankful to Hasbro for some Sentinels next year and hopefully some nice lookin’ Marvel Legends in 2012!
Here’s some more pics of the threeA Toys Action Portable Tomorrow King Colorways. I’m trying to recall other examples of blind box figures. I know it’s prevalent in smaller urban vinyl figures, but the APTK cost $100 plus shipping. Have there been others?
I knew when I pre-ordered the first Tomorrow King in the 1/12 scale Action Portable line that he would be a random colorway, but I didn’t know that it meant variation in the t-shirt design too – that’s cool!
If I could pick, I’d want the one with the goatee. The only ones I’d feel inclined to trade away would be the all white or all black versions.
As WWrp LArge MArtin is entering the shipping system I just wanted to say thanks to the patient folks who have hung in there, Ill make no excuses, these are WAAAY overdue, but I believe when you see the final figs you will see where the time and energy has gone ! They will be […]
The WWRp Large Martins “dropped” for pre-order in February this year, so when these finally arrive it’ll be like 3A Toys has given birth to a bundle of robotic joy. I’ve got the 3 by 3 coming, so it’ll be a pretty big bundle. Can’t wait!
As WWRp Large Martin is entering the shipping system I just wanted to say thanks to the patient folks who have hung in there, Ill make no excuses, these are WAAAY overdue, but I believe when you see the final figs you will see where the time and energy has gone ! They will be in your hands soon, but before that I wanted to show some more images because Im very proud of these !!! -Ash
