    First time purchase from Mezco. Decided to test the waters before deciding or not to purchase their Mr. Freeze coming out later this year, so I went with Joker over on BBTS. I'm extremely happy with him, very good quality and tight joints. Got a tiny paint chip on his right forearm, but I don't care, I'm just happy with how cool he is. :thumb

    Yeah I kind of love that Joker even though dislike that body, the arms specifically, but I think he came out great despite that. I wish they'd do another classic style one with this bright white face.

    Got my PX Hal today. I was originally going to pass as I wasn't fond of the changes to the suit. Glad I changed my mind, though I'm worried about the longevity of the green overlay.

    Welp. Finally bowed to the ineveitable and ordered a Joker - NOT the Clown Prince Of Crime one. No offense to anyone but it just doesn't do it for me.

    Managed to find one on Amazon for just over $300... which was sadly a DEAL considering the bloodsuckers on Ebay wanted around $600.
    Except the guys with the Chinese KOs. But screw THAT.

    At least now when Harley comes out she'll have her Puddin'.

    Nnnope. Just the regular one. Again, bear in mind that on eBay the same non-deluxe figure was going for $600 new, $500 pre-owned.

    Edit: on further review, there's something odd at eBay. All of the available Joker figures at either the Deluxe or the Clown Prince; NONE of them are the regular figure. Weird.
    In either event, the Deluxe ones are still $600 except for the KOs. Too rich for my blood.

    You're not wrong.
    Even the $300+ for the regular Joker hurt. That said, when the only other option was not having any Joker at all...
    Well, as the saying goes: needs must when the devil drives.

    Damn, I was SO close to buying the MDX Joker for $200 after it came out, but someone recommended I wait it out and hoped the price dipped. NOPE! lol

    :lol 

    If I've learned ANYTHING from the collecting game it's this: strike fast, strike early.
    I thought the same thing about the Pink Skull set... lesson learned.

    Can classic Wonder Woman pull off any of the following poses:

    4_2018-Iron-Studios-DC-Comics-One-Third-Prime-Scale-Statue-Wonder-Woman-P020.jpg 2_300664_press10.jpg

    In a feasible manner.

    I don't expect a full on recreation.

    Passable or close enough is satisfactory.

    I watched a review and the gentleman stated she has limited articulation.

    Just wanted a second opinion before purchasing.

    Please and thanks.

    Here's your answer.

    Reasonably well despite the known issues present as you really got futz around with it.

    I'm sure that the 1/6th version done by Sideshow/TBLeague does the better job.

    I still got PX Cable to fiddle around and take snaps with.

    Merci beaucoup.

    I intend on buying her in August.

    As a birthday gift for myself.

    Bien sur @Pride21! (My French is rusty as I took it for four years since Grade 5 and dropped it when I was Grade 10)

    Cracked open my copy of the PX Cable (Nathan Christopher Charles Dayspring Askani'son Summers)
    DSC01751.jpg DSC01752.jpg DSC01754.jpg
    I picked up this version than the regular release as I didn't like the bulk of the Armored vest that was on him. Just like his dad (Scott "Slim" Summers), he has light up feature what works with both versions of the face sculpt and the same accessories as the regular version (the spear is in this version). Batteries are packaged next to the stand.

    I put the pistol in the wrong way since it slides off when you pick it up and tilt it more than 120 degrees downwards. If your all wondering, I have the complete Marvel Comics: Fatal Attraction Series (the five book crossover).

    Fatal Attraction is an awesome series. I’m glad you got the PX Cable. He looks to be the better version. It’s a shame that he is a bit too small for my liking. It seems to be a major mistake on Mezco’s part. I love Cable and Mezco but it went from a must have to a pass nearly instantly once the reviews came out. Shorter than Cyclops?!? I don’t think so.... although i still want to get him...

    I really like the new FFH Spider-Man. He’s really nice. The figure is an overall improvement over the standard Homecoming release. It’s superior in every way.

    In other news I went to move and repose my black suit Spider-Man last weekend and it’s left foot broke. I was kind of shocked because I barely even touched it. So that happened...
    I bought the figure February 2019 from BBTS. I contacted Mezco for a replacement and they directed me back to BBTS. I spoke with a representative there and after a few back and forth emails I was told I would get store credit to get a replacement so I did that. Kind of amazing. I reached out to Mezco initially because it’s their shotty product but it was BBTS customer support making it right. I just have to wait for some sweet he VC Mandalorian figures to come instock to ship my POL.
