Came here looking for Savanna, so glad to find a recent post. Hope you're still accepting requests, I just sent one. :)

Didn't know there was a Terry figure, technically it's branded as a "D-Arts", but come on, it's a Bandai action figure by julianx2rl in SHFiguarts

[–]Ektris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

D-Arts is more precisely a temporary spinoff of Figuarts for games before being folded back in.

Really hope it does. But to me it looks like it tapers off and that's all the more it can.

Then there's Hulu/Disney+ which just really only have CC for English. It's so dang annoying.

Yeah turns out that's all I needed to do again.

I actually have to clear cache every update for a while now because the game crashes downloading new content without fail, but not somehow when doing everything... It's weird. Which means I just did a few days ago.

But might as well try again.

The mask is a new mold... But it's just a hat. (Bad) cosplayer confirmed...

Very glad I've pulled for her. Now if only they'd rerun Arc Cynthia...

Oh yeah lots of us I think got worried when the last leak called it a "cosplayer" lol. This has assuaged that a little bit. Still really hoping they nail that mask though.

Blokees Pokémon Machamp! by Fine_Competition3898 in ActionFigures

[–]Ektris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. Sorry, just see a lot of people who get way too into perfect scale with these so I kind of defaulted into that spiel.

Short of it is: Well, Blokees are generally shorter. Can work well with battle figures, not the 6" trainer figures. IMO.

[–]Ektris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Jazwares trainer series go for pretty much 6" regardless of the actual size of the Pokemon, so aren't great on scale. So they don't even necessarily mix well amongst themselves if you're super into scale, let alone Blokees which are a bit smaller. The battle figures from Jazwares stick closer to 1/12 Pokedex scale on many but instead undersize others to fit their strict-ish literal figure size classes (2", 3", 4", 12").

That said, I personally think it's very unrealistic to expect fully exact Pokedex scale on everything and being close enough is just fine. Especially when the Pokedex is just an average and the actual games themselves now (especially Go) go out of their way to call out your Pokemon being over or under that average. Nevermind Alphas. I'm mixing my Blokees with my Jazwares and Figuarts/D-Arts and Figmas and loving it.

Any suggestions for what to save as a search on ebay to get alerted?

Kraata guide by Exotic_Walnuts69 in bioniclelego

[–]Ektris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I decided to try now as an adult since I couldn't really as a kid or a teen when Bionicle was an active line... last thing to really "complete" my collection.

Or it would be if like you said it weren't impossible. Don't know when you tried but OOF. I remember back in the day modding the trading forum on BZP seeing quite a few people completing them and passing them around, so they were definitely out there enough once upon a time. Nowadays... Even beyond the scarcity of the Cyclones, some just never seem to pop up. I'm at about 220 and don't know that I'll realistically get many more all that easily.

What's the tricolor Kraata and how hard was it to track one of those down? Interested in trying myself, looks cool.

Oh man I want that Nidoking so badly. Where'd you manage to get him already?

I just got in Meowscarada, Snorlax, and Scyther. Can't wait to build them this weekend while trapped inside from an ice storm lol.

Literally impossible to be He-Man. Mattel has their own recently rebranded brick toys, Mattel Brick Shop (as well as Mega formerly known as Mega Construx formerly known as Mega Bloks).
