    Has anyone else that has received their PS4 spidey had issues with the shoulders? I feel like I’m going to snap them off when I try to straighten his arms out to the side.

    Haven’t gotten mine yet, but I’ve watched many reviews and most said the same thing. Honestly it sounds like either putting a small small amount of dish soap in the joint or just doing the hot water trick will free them up nicely just fine

    Cheers for heads up on KoW Black Panther; a quick order for me as I love the kinetic energy look. Anyone recieved a shipping notice for Nebula yet?

    Still waiting for NY to ship Nebula out. Order hasn't entered processing stage yet either. Hopefully it happens soon.

    I think he’s just talking about the tightness of the swivel on the ball joint for the bicep

    Yeah my left arm seemed good the right was almost at 45 degrees and won’t rotate like yours. With all SHFs I’ve purchased I must have lucked out with incredibly smooth joint movements this is a first for me. Just felt like I was gonna break it without even applying much pressure.

    My ps4 spidey has some ridiculously tight ankles, I had to pull them out and work the joints themselves for them to even move.

    Otherwise, everything is fine. Wished his arms had more upwards mobility...but, not the end of the world. 1635BBC6-F2A7-4961-B0A6-6B943779E0DE.jpeg

    Rey and Ben! Both a bit more fully featured than their TLJ counterparts, but I think Rey is the more worthwhile one of the two if you already have the other figures (like I do :/)

    Rey has Dio and her staff, which she didn't have previously. She also comes with Han's gun, but it doesn't look like she has a way to store it this time around.

    That cape looks excellent, but I probably would have missed the non-cracked helmet if this was my only Kylo.

    I need to see how the trilogy ends before I can determine if anything from them is worth owning.

    Also, when is Figuarts going to tackle Lando and Palpatine?

    Agreed. I need to see if they stick the landing before I buy them. Though the sixth trooper look dope regardless

    You made him look confused and/or regretful at his decision to swing towards whatever he’s headed towards :D

    BlueFin has the SH Turtles on sale for $35 a piece. While I was sorely tempted to grab all four, since I've already gotten the Neca Turtles, I just went for Leo. Gotta draw a line somewhere on the number of iterations of Turtle-toys somewhere.

    Did Bandai ever release Shredder?

    No, unfortunately they did not. Sales on the 4 Turtles were apparently not what Bandai wanted so they scraped the Shredder.

    Those are amazing. Did you make all of those dioramas yourself?

    And this is why I have trust issues when it comes to Bandai. I can't justify buying the turtles without Shredder. It's just like the Lupin and Cowboy Bebop line. I refuse/refused to buy anyone from those lines without the guarantee ALL of the major players are/were going to be released. Clearly they did not bother finishing the Lupin characters and I have no faith that they will do all of the ones to Cowboy Bebop.
