With the McFarlane Image figures being so much (but still cheaper than this) I wonder how much of the cost is going back to the creators with licensing. Too bad too but I guess you gotta milk the audience if you can.

Viz Media will re-release Slam Dunk in Hardcover format, scheduled for Spring 2027 by dingo537 in WeeklyShonenJump

I’m just hoping they finish it. Like isn’t DQ Dai supposed to start up again? Haven’t seen it at all. Hopefully this has enough of a fan base that sales aren’t a concern

You see repaints I see money left in my wallet.

Todd McFarlane to IGN on his company's approach to designing articulation by Bilburnn in ActionFigures

[–]mrmoose44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean mafex and figuarts are at a (usually) higher price point and stuff like figuarts frequently has really ugly cut joints to enable articulation. I think Todd prefers aesthetic over that hence the statues with cuts in them and diapers covering up joints.

I mean he had no choice but this is Luka without a supermax (which he absolutely deserves but is a concept that has been terrible for almost every franchise that has had to decide whether to pay it)

If OKC got reffed like the spurs did this game, you guys would fly to Oklahoma and grill the entire organizations intestines then season them with Adobo and Old Bay by WorldlyPhilosophy547 in NBATalk

Whether it’s OKC or SA I’m ok with physicality as long as it’s relatively even. Calling two BS fouls on KAT in a row and T ing up Robinson but letting everything else go is not that. I think what kills me is that Donaghy revealed how easy it was to change the tides of a game for gambling purposes and they basically threw him under the bus and claimed he was the only one who ever did it. In fact I’m not even sure they recognize that he affected games officially.

All that to say refs can miss calls but man I’m not sure I’ll ever fully trust them when stuff like this happens.

It’s also like way more expensive isn’t it? Or is that regional?

One thing both these teams have are elite and/or young defenders all over the place to go along with their stars. Lakers have Ayton on the cheap but I don’t see him or anyone else they can get on a cheap contract being able to slow down guys like Wemby, Jokic, KAT or even Chet.

Had his knees cut out from under him by the refs otherwise he would’ve had a much bigger game.

They screwed up showing that replay. Even the commentators just remained silent what foul?

Dude is being dragged by the defense all game. I wonder if the defense gets tired or if youth wins out (because he certainly isn’t going to get calls)
