    My Targets seem to go through most of their NECA stuff pretty handily. The Godzilla stuff sells out pretty quickly...but that seems to be due to them only getting a few figures in at a time (like literally 3 copies of any given design...and they sell out within a week). They seem to get tons of Jason, Predators and Aliens. They probably sell about as quickly as Godzilla...they just hit the stores in much higher numbers and, therefore, are available for a longer period of time.

    By god, I just got and opened tf2 Medic and he feels very... mediocre.

    Looks top notch except for his glasses, but his knees are pretty much tight in place and I'm scared they will break.

    and I have to use all my strength to get him to hold his accessories.

    Yeah I keep what few Team Fortress figures I’ve got on card and just hang them up. I had opened my blue Spy and in an attempt to move his arm it broke at the elbow. Had BBTS send me a replacement though.

    Between Team Fortress and Terminator I’m left surprised by their Horror figures who I’ve yet to have any bad QC with, same goes with my Half Life 2 Gordon Freeman reissue. Have yet to open my Kaju from King of the Monsters though so I don’t know what the quality on their Godzilla stuff is.

    Despite the QC issues I hope they do some red team reissues.

    Is my best bet to order Mothra online if I haven't seen her in stores yet?

    Anyone else having issues with posing their figures in a straight vanilla pose due to having a leg longer than the other? I'm having this issue with Michael, Leatherface and 2017 Pennywise.

    If people are finding more Tf2 figures in the mainline right now does that mean the line's been revived? If so then does that mean we'll see the remaining characters that didn't get figures get made?

    Well With this wave of Medic, Sniper, and scout finishes red team. Personally, I would like reissues of the other ones.

    The leg isn't longer, it's that the balljoints on the hip were misaligned when they were installed. I saw that issue on the archie turtles too. I was very careful with each turtle because of that issue.

    Awesome. :)  Would be cool if they also did characters like Miss Pauling and Saxton Hale in the future.

    How about all of them as Man Vs Machines remolds.

    I don't need a Saxton hale as much but a Ms. Pualing with my Red Scout, GOODNIGHT!

    I wasn't really planning on that one, but damn, that's a good looking presentation.

    Totally. I only have one Predator figure (Jungle Hunter) and haven't picked up any of the others because, to me, they just aren't different enough to justify another purchase. This guy, though, is nuts. Hopefully the eyes look good. My Jungle Hunter has evil creepy eyes while a lot of the other versions just look kinda meh in the peeper department.

    Is the Halloween II (1981) Ultimate Michael Myers been released?


    Update: Looks like they're doing a limited run before they release it this September, well I jumped on that bandwagon and ordered it on NECA's Amazon store. Yay!

    And so I went with Freddy 2 as my FvJ and added AvED Ash then I created my setup as a FvJ with onlookers Michael Myers, Pennywise, Leatherface, Chcuky & Tiffany, and a fake Leprechaun

    Have not decided if I'll grab the original It. Ready for Sam, Pinhead, Annabelle, and Crookedman. Hopefully we get Candyman, the Nun, Ghostface and the Leprechaun soon
