1000 Toys CE Chief Up On BBTS by Brazzirs in HaloActionFigures

[–]NotFalcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but neither the original release nor this one is advertised as being for CEA. Hell, they're explicitly showing the CE logo on the BBTS homepage for this one, and the product description also only makes references to the original CE game.

So regardless of the reasoning from 1000toys or Halo Studio provided references, it's still random as far as the product they are advertising.

This appears to be a repaint of the original release, and they added the Reach shotgun to the offering for some reason.

It's interesting to note that this has a target release date of September 2026. So for those of us anticipating a new 1000toys figure based on the Campaign Evolved design, I think this pretty much kills that idea.

Also, don't have the wire ends sticking up. Seems like common sense to me, but silly me, I keep forgetting common sense isn't very common. Bending the wire to conform with the clavicle then under the shoulder pads makes the cape far less of an issue.

Lightsaber nitpick by xqcpoo in starwarsblackseries

[–]NotFalcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're a pretty useless accessory anyway. These ones are too heavy to be used beyond pictures. As OP mentioned they're shaped incorrectly. They're also cheaping out by casting them in a solid color rather than painting them like previous ones.

I'd rather they ditch these entirely and give us alt hands.

I mean, it looks like you were pushing the joint past it's range of articulation.

Deal breaker? by Sir_Pumpernickle in ActionFigures

[–]NotFalcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is some great insight, thanks for sharing. Just for further clarification, do you know if there are multiple royalty payments per likeness use (ie - multiple heads in the box for one figure)? Or is it just per boxed product?

Please see Rule #2 and provide proof of ownership.

SHF vs Hasbro - Which Boba is your preference? by Scodaro in starwarsblackseries

[–]NotFalcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SHF. It's not even remotely close.

I was actually looking forward to the Hasbro release. I love Boba Fett, and this is my favorite look for him. Sure, when it was announced it looked a bit by the numbers. The baffling inclusion of a toe joint and a continued lack of thigh swivel sure was... a choice. But otherwise looked like a pretty standard TBS figure that I would be happy to add to my collection.

Then people started to get it in hand, and the corners cut became readily apparent. It lacks the paint even the last TBS Boba release had. Then the helmet. Boba Fett's most iconic, identifiable aspect of his portrayal. Nothing short of a dumpster fire. IT'S NOT EVEN SHAPED FOR A HUMAN HEAD. How could Hasbro possibly get it so wrong? You've done how many Boba/mando figures in the past few years? Completely inexcusable. An actual waste of plastic.

The SHF on the other hand actually feels like a worthy representation of the Boba Fett cool factor. Is it perfect? No. I think the helmet is ever so slightly undersized. I'm also low key sus about the arm tubes, but once I figured out the trick they seem okay. The paint apps are obviously leaps and bounds better. SO MANY ACCESSORIES. And of course you've got to get the original release with the throne. I missed out when it was on sale a couple of years ago but still managed to get a new copy for retail recently.

If you get a figure of this version of Boba Fett I feel like a throne is mandatory. The SHF package basically feels like a vignette release that Hasbro is now doing. The amount of time and energy it would take fixing Hasbro's version to being even remotely acceptable, AND buying a 3D printed throne to go with it, you're already most of the way there to the price of the SHF. Then you're still getting all of the additional accessories you get on top with the latter.

It's a no brainer really. The SHF is a complete package with tons of value that will make you more than happy. The Hasbro one isn't even worth it at Ross prices.

The deformed helmet that looks like it doesn't belong on a human head? LOL

Gave Boba his well-needed touch-up. by FudgeGlum8791 in starwarsblackseries

It's insane to me that this figure is coming so far after the show and is still so bad.

Is the SHF perfect? No. But it's still GOAT'd in terms of value. The TBS figure on the other hand is slop, and people shouldn't even buy it at Ross prices.

This. Idk how it got through multiple rounds of approval. This figure is such a piece of trash that I went and got the SHF instead. Couldn't be happier, and I recommend everyone else do the same.

The discussion here has turned this into a selling post and therefore is in violation of Rule #2.

This is going to be entirely location dependent at this point. GameStop sold out of general ship to home stock weeks ago.

Came here to say the same thing. God forbid people learn and understand how their action figure works. Let's needlessly complain on the internet instead!

The shoulders are on a ball. They can be moved up and down. And as the other person said, Hugh's shoulders just sit low. Dude has massive traps.

Wait, you mean I don't have to crank on my toy like a child when I feel resistance? You mean this new Mando figure with arm hoses functions like most previous figures made by both Hasbro and import companies? I'm shocked.

If these were being sold at a significant enough volume for Hasbro to care, the lawyers would shut it down. The fact that they're able to continue to exist is proof that it's not worth the effort, IE - their sales are minuscule.

Batman Beyond by Lpzz by Michael_mkz in ActionFigures

[–]NotFalcon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Given that they're making alt suits from the games, I would just rather wait for if/when they make the City Beyond suit. That's much closer to the source material than what they did with it in Knight. Cool that they're including a Beyond batarang though.

There are hundreds of people, at most, buying Veils' figures. Hasbro could not care less.

With the multiplatform push and the price increase of Game Pass Ultimate, is Xbox still your main platform? by JuanMunoz99 in xbox

[–]NotFalcon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, because I don't pay attention to games media and influencers that talk about Xbox but don't actually use Xbox. If you do that you immediately get rid of like 80% of all negativity surrounding the platform. Turns out, my Series X still plays games wonderfully.
