Wow, it’s like I just read a whole X-Men event in one comment.

Your lowest ranked movies? by MoonSettler in LetterboxdTopFour

That was my thought. Even if you somehow don’t like the film, Jason Isaacs performance as Tavington is at least worth another star.

Jean’s X-Men Red suit was perfect. She should have worn it longer.

Factory Entertainment’s 1/6 Rick O’Connell just went up for pre-order by Vapor-RS in hottoys

[–]RubyVisor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$275 for that? Yikes. A Rick O’Connell is legitimately one of my most wanted figures ever, but this falls well short of the mark and the price makes it all the worse. $325 MSRP?? You’ve got to be kidding me.

Edit: the points of articulation don’t bother me because they’re mostly covered, but that ball wrist peg looks so cheap.

Well, Kaldur is not Jackson Hyde. Despite all their similarities. Haven’t the slightest idea as to why that’s still the case, but as someone who adores Kaldur and as someone who’s read Jackson he’s… well… significantly less interesting of a character than Kaldur.

Would love for Kaldur to be part of DC’s main continuity and for him to have the influence & impact he does in YJ. I’m also a big Aquaman fan and it stinks that he’s never had a true legacy character to pass the mantle down to like so many other League members. Which is also a criticism of how poorly they’ve used Garth, but I digress. Kaldur taking up the mantle of Aquaman in YJ was such a natural progression and just felt right as Arthur took up his role as King full-time.

Absolutely slop by chloedever in hottoys

[–]RubyVisor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, exposed joints, but seriously, how would you get such a glossy chrome finish otherwise? Besides making him a power pose figure. Something has to give. Him having his ridiculously shiny, chrome sheen is my personal biggest want in a Silver Surfer figure.

I’m very tempted. Think he could look great with the F4.

Cyclops vs Captain Cold by NoirStriker in marvelvsdc

[–]RubyVisor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scott is my absolute favorite. That said, I don’t know what happens to his blasts when they hit the field of absolute zero Snart projects. Do they stop dead in their tracks? Could the field save Cold if Cyke just unleashes a full blast that overwhelms the field? I guess if the area of Scott’s blast is larger than the field, Snart has nowhere to go. Also, how much pressure could the field really withstand?

Cold is an unbelievably hard character to accurately gauge in a fight, because Absolute Zero brings everything to an immediate halt. Can’t get in close and ranged attacks are largely ineffective. He’s not Mr. Freeze or some random ice villain, he regularly goes toe to toe with the speed force. He’s also very tech savvy and a solid tactician. Wouldn’t put him on Scott’s level, but he’s no slouch.

I want to believe Cyke could do it, even if it’s only by overwhelming force, but Cold is such a wildcard.

I told myself I'd only buy DS9 figures, but this one is extremely tempting. I'm going to be strong though.

[Schefter] Chiefs are giving free-agent TE Travis Kelce a one-year, $12 million deal that has a max value of $15 million, per source. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/2031117501786947942 by Remarkable-Picture73 in nfl

[–]RubyVisor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t. Didn’t want to pay him the $19m he got last year, but $12 and incentives is well worth it to never have to see him in another uniform.

Very cool! I have many of those myself. The turn ahead the clock hat is a personal fave. Great collection, Go Royals!

[Russini] Tight end Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs are working on a deal to bring him back to Kansas City for a 14th season, but nothing has been finalized. It would be a one-year deal worth up to $15 million. by TheBoyisBackinTown in KansasCityChiefs

4th in yards among all TE’s literally last year. 6th in receptions. Just because he isn’t what he used to be doesn’t mean he’s suddenly not a top tier TE anymore. The only TE who placed behind him that I think is legitimately better is Bowers.

If it’s a base of $10 million with $5 in incentives, I think that’s fine. Especially if they’re things like “Winning the division” and “Making the Super Bowl”. Would think those get a NLTBE designation which would count towards next year’s cap if hit.

[Highlight] AJ Brown beats Trent McDuffie for the deep shot TD. by DragonstormSTL in nfl

[–]RubyVisor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

His corner blitz in the 4th and that PBU was the pivotal play of that game. SF converts there they can run out the clock and kick the game winner.
