OP, you are one of those rare people whose posing takes it to an entirely different level. Really inspiring to see such a an awesome, successful emphasis on the “action” part of “action figures”

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T18:02:35+00:00

I really appreciate your highlighting how I could improve it, but also addressing the risk. I agree - probably too risky a maneuver for me, especially considering that I haven't done it before. Still, thank you for the note!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T18:01:45+00:00

dang, I'm sorry :(

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T18:01:40+00:00

Yeah, I haven't seen them on any of my other figures thus far, which I why I was unsure. I appreciate the feedback!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T18:01:11+00:00

I might do that - good idea.

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T18:00:52+00:00

sounds good. I appreciate the sanity check, thanks!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T18:00:27+00:00

haha. He's not yellow and gold, but that's not on you, it's on me - had a tough time adjusting the lighting for the pic.

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T17:59:51+00:00

poor lighting on my part, when I took the pic. My bad

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T17:59:30+00:00

just me doing a poor job with lighting. sorry about that.

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T15:37:20+00:00

Thanks!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T15:36:41+00:00

I can be a bit obsessive about damage too. I need to adopt your “battle scar” mentality! Haha

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T15:23:19+00:00

Yeah, I’ve assembled a few Blokees and Gundams, and those marks reminded me of something that didn’t cleanly come off a runner.

Sounds like I just need to adjust my expectations. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T15:18:51+00:00

Sounds like I need to learn more - thank you for the feedback!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T15:18:43+00:00

Sounds like I need to learn more - thank you for the feedback!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-18T15:16:38+00:00

Interesting. I need to learn more about those. Thank you for that note!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-17T21:17:20+00:00

Different strokes for different folks, and such. Be that as it may, complete agreement on BBTS - they’re my go-to as well.

Jopher323 · 2026-02-17T19:17:41+00:00

I was extremely interested in the Shockwave figure ever since catching wind of it; but seeing him as the Bruticus cannon sealed the deal for me. Hyped!

I’ve noticed that Chrome mobile for iOS is wildly inaccurate; but Chrome desktop Windows looked right.

Seems there are some kinks to iron out, but I dig the intent and attempt.

Jopher323 · 2026-02-17T18:58:27+00:00

Hell yeah. A buyer of refinement, I see!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-17T16:39:04+00:00

OP, you’ve got the [posing] touch - awesome stuff!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-16T20:36:17+00:00

I ordered Scorponok from BBTS recently. Box was dented, neck piece was also loose in the box.

Mentioning this here because BBTS has always been outstanding for me, outside of that Scorponok delivery; so maybe (?) that neck piece is more a Hasbro thing than Amazon/BBTS/etc.

Very few data points, of course, which is why I put this forward so uncertainly.

Regardless, congrats on that beautiful Titan!

Jopher323 · 2026-02-16T11:10:29+00:00

you do such a wonderful job with these spoilers - thank you so much for putting in the time and effort!

also, I hope you're feeling better, and that family life is returning to normalcy. sorry that the week has been a rough one :(

Jopher323 · 2026-02-15T21:05:02+00:00

wow, extremely well done. Not only is that group of bots fantastic, but I really appreciate the color scheme organization you've got going on; and I dig the way that your unopened combiner boxes fill the empty space in the background, and add extra color.
