Despite what Optibotimus said, I think they are still available here for a reasonable price: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - 7" Scale Action figures - Eastman & Laird Villains 4-Pack - NYCC 2016 Exclusive $100. That's how I got them.
Wha? It averages to $25 a figure and was only $100 retail. I've seen you buy entire cases of Marvel Legends at one time on these forums and your most recent haul I saw was around $100 for two figures: SH Figuarts Thread Pretty sure you of all people can't complain $100 for four figures is only "sellable to someone who isn't rich" Seems like you drop $60 - $100 on the regular for stuff judging by the 100s of X-Men Omnibuses you buy and your constant haul posts, don't act like this box set is suddenly out of your price range at $100.
I think it is. I paid $100 for mine. You just have to be careful with the hydraulics. They aren't brittle or anything but I can see them snapping if abused. It doesn't really accommodate other Neca figures like advertised but works great with Ripley. No one else will probably ever make it at this scale so I feel it's worth it.
It's totally worth it and I got mine when it was $105. Of course, it helps to have Lt. Ripley to pilot it. Just make sure you don't get a lemon and ensure that all the parts are there when you open the box (I've read some folks had missing bits with their Power Loader but mine was fine and complete with zero issues). I have Ripley all loaded up in her Power Loader with bisected Bishop at her feet whilst battling the Alien Queen. Makes for a helluva impressive display on the shelf when it's all said and done.
TRU has the 2001 Godzilla up and I think free shipping. I'm going to hold out until I hopefully find one in the stores. I want to check for the ugly bicep swivel. I can't tell from the pics whether it's there or not. I also don't want to get one with a crooked jaw.
Looks really cool to me (I wish they included a blue atomic breath effect though). I don't see a bicep swivel. The SH MonsterArts version has bicep swivel and still looks awesome though (to me anyway).
I went ahead and ordered the Godzilla, since it's $19.99. When they get them in store, they'll probably put them at $22. I just hope I don't end up having to do an exchange because of a wonky jaw hinge. Is the Predator line dead? Those don't seem to generate much more discussion any more than something like mashers. And what's with the netting? They paint it in flesh tones and pretend it's part of their skin.
No, the line is not dead, but since it's mostly repaints and retools of the same character you don't find much interest in it.
Ordered Godzilla as well. Couldn't pass up the price with free shipping. They have the Kenner-ish figures up for pre-order. I think the Mantis Alien is one of my most looked-forward-to non TF figures. Man that thing looks pretty.
Saw 2001 at my local TRU. He looks phenomenal. Can't wait until mine arrives! They have him packaged with his mouth closed. That should prevent any issues with warping.
Man, I looked that up after reading this, and now I want one too . Speaking of Aliens, though, I did see and pick up this one I guess one trans green Xenomorph will tide me over until the other one.
I hope Neca will give us a 1976 Godzilla. I know Godzilla vs. Megalon isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I loved it when I was a kid. That's probably my favorite suit.
My only serious complaint is one of his back spikes is warped to the right. He is very hunched over and he's quite a bit bigger than 1985.
The 2001 Godzilla looks good. Hopefully they do other monsters. Would be all in for Destroyah, King Ghidorah, and Mechagodzilla. They have made larger figures in the Pacific Rim and other lines.
Looks really cool. Can't wait to get mine. Wow that sucks. You should tweet that shit to NECA with the same phrase.
Do the Predator's heads pop right off? Can you swap the heads from one figure to the other? Thanks in advance.
I'm assuming this is the "ultimate" Gipsy? I was debating whether to get this or GMK Godzilla today. Clearly I made the right choice. At least my Docks Gipsy is still holding up. I really wish NECA would take a note from DC Collectibles and change the materials they make joints out of. I might not have had too many breakages, but it's only a matter of time.
