    My IW Thor just shipped from Nippon Yasan so it'll probably be another 2 weeks or so before I have it in hand but my Wasp arrived today so I am looking forward to taking some photos of her with Ant-man!

    How is Wasp? I got her coming from BBTS, really eager to put her with Ant-Man

    Is there any online resource for telling genuine from fake Figuarts? Most obvious thing is price, but just any general ref around?

    As long as you stick to the standard online stores, worrying about fakes is a non-entity.

    That looks awesome. I really want the regular version of that new Goku, but I just don't have the money to spare on him.

    I think she's pretty great besides being very light on accessories. Articulation is good and the wings turned out pretty well. The only thing for me is I'm not sure how I feel about the shade of matte blue they used but it seems pretty accurate to the movie. She pairs really nicely with Ant-Man.

    She feels nice. Kinda wish you could remove the wings so she'd look normal ish with the other marvel guys. But I am an huge fan of the movies so I can't complain too much.

    Darn it...it’s moments like this that I wished this line was taller around 6 inches...I would get rid of my ML MCU collection.

    Serious?! Dang it...seems like one of the few things consistent with SHF is the inconsistent scaling! LOL!

    To be fair, Vader's supposed to be taller than Anakin. How Ani lost height between AotC and RotS is a real mystery, for sure.

    Has there been any news about the S.H. Figuarts Boba Fett toy since the Tamashii Con 2018?

    Whoa! It’s a good thing I never bought the AOTC version! I was really going back and forth on whether I should buy it!

    It just depends. Like @NSJ23 said, some of the SHFs do work with ML and many people, myself included, try to mix them when possible. But yeah for larger characters like Thor, the SHF is a struggle to display with ML unless you put him in a hovering pose to hide the size inaccuracy. But on the other hand, figures like Ant-Man and Wasp go great with ML because Scott and Hope seem a tad on the shorter side anyway

    Vader being taller makes sense, the AOTC and ROTS difference doesn’t. They did the same with all three Obi-Wans which is really bizarre

    Oh my god, that is hilarious. It's like watching a Sentai series where the blue ranger is taller than the other rangers but the moment they transform he's the shortest.

    Oh but it's Figuarts by Bandai which can do no wrong, only we are wrong to criticize them! How dare we criticize a premium line where The Force is not strong with scaling!
