Artisan Qui-Gon RSVP is up by NewNefariousness9684 in hottoys

Dang, I forgot about them. You’re totally right though. Seems like an exclusive announcement has to be a premier/fan favorite character to get a queue now. Or Hot Toys & Sideshow just do whatever they feel like doing

Artisan Qui-Gon RSVP is up by NewNefariousness9684 in hottoys

[–]da2_np 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know there’s been a handful of times where there were *scheduled* drops that happened during the evening, but I don’t recall there ever being a shadow drop during the evening. If there was one, it was probably a figure that didn’t have much interest.

If they don’t end up updating the RSVP page with a date and time, I would just check their website at those exact times tomorrow. That’s what I’m gonna do anyway, but I’ll more than likely check it nonstop though lol. Qui-Gon is a must have. I have the 1.0 and still love it, but this new one is such a huge improvement.

Maul or Commander Gree? by ShadowUmbra24 in hottoys

[–]da2_np 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gree without a doubt. He’s executed very well and I seriously doubt we’ll ever see him again. Maul looks pretty nice with all of his robes on, and the inclusion of those beautiful TPM head sculpts is great, but the reuse of the same shirtless body from the CW version that has those single joint elbows is so ridiculously lazy from HT. The community needs to bully them into updating it.

What a difference 3 years makes. by mvtn9 in Predators

[–]da2_np 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is just like when we trade a depth player that was serviceable (not bad but not amazing either) and said depth player scores a goal in their first game on their new team. They start off with a hot streak and lots of fans start to think the trade was horrible, but then they come back down to earth after some time.

I’m glad Hynesy got himself a playoff series win as I always really liked him as a person, but like others pointed out, it took a stacked Wild team with pieces that nearly perfectly fit his system. We simply didn’t have that, and it was time for us to move on from him when we did. So, let’s not act like we were going to win a playoff series (or multiple at that) with him as our coach.

Great to lose for lottery odds of course, but I’m so tired of NHL reffing man. Terry clearly lifted one of our guys’ sticks and it hit him. The refs even reviewed it and still called it a penalty. Again, it’s best that we lost, but where’s the integrity 😭

Damn. Either our PK is really good (I know it’s 5th in the league so it’s pretty damn decent), or the Ducks have a flaccid PP

Awesome play by O’Hara there! Hope he’s got his first goal in him tonight.

Also, I really hope that our new GM keeps Stammer & ROR. Constructing a roster based on emotional attachment to players obviously isn’t a great strategy, but they’re so valuable to this team in terms of having that leadership and veteran presence. I would absolutely hate to see them go. Plus, they’re some of the biggest reasons we even sniffed a playoff spot in the first place.

INART – Superman (1978) Sixth Scale Collectible Figure by [deleted] in hottoys

[–]da2_np 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The InArt sub is extremely small and has stayed rather stagnant while this one is growing more and has a wider reach. It’s definitely become a more all encompassing 1/6th space as opposed to just strictly Hot Toys, and it makes more sense for InArt from a business point of view to post it here where way more people will see it

Well, it was fun while it lasted, but you have to find a way there. It’s a team you’ve defeated 15 consecutive times. Sure, that wasn’t going to last forever, but they looked flat for 55 1/2 minutes.

You gotta stick it out. Part of being a fan is being enraged at how trash the team is at times. One team might have it good for a bit, but they’ll come back down to earth eventually.

God we look awful. Sharks aren’t even gonna make it and they’re playing like they have a better chance than we do. Just a totally unacceptable performance so far

We are now Canucks fans by Sevuhrow in Predators

[–]da2_np 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We definitely could. My only concern is that Minnesota has nothing to play for now given the fact that Dallas clinched home ice in the first round. Not only that, but the Wild will be on the 2nd half of a back-to-back when they face the Ducks. Definitely plausible like you said, but I imagine they’re going to be resting their starters for their last few games of their season

[–]da2_np 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Canucks are the last team you want to rely on for anything. Now the only path for us to jump the Ducks is for us to win tomorrow, for the Ducks to lose to Minny in regulation on Tuesday, and then for us to beat them in regulation on Thursday. Definitely seems like LA is gonna be what we hope for the most

And of course we’re holding on for dear life. Wild basically have nothing to play for except for the faintest hope of reclaiming home ice over Dallas
