Ooh, Knightfall Tim Drake and Batman revealed by McFarlane. I wonder if they will do a more comic accurate Bane figure to go with them, the Mega figure was a bit too big to be comic accurate to his first appearance Oh and my Black Series Scorch has shipped, so SAF did have actual stock...yippee!!
I think it would be their first Batman Megafig refit as opposed to a repaint, so it would be interesting if they did do Bane. I think I'm avoiding the Batman though, already got multiple blue-coloured Bats now and Knightfall as a story just did nothing for me (I read it years after release). Need to see better pictures of Drake, their Robins generally suck!
Well, three episodes in and season 3 of Picard is still half decent, although I don't have much faith they'll keep it up.
I don't think i've ever seen a Starbar IRL, I though they were only around in the late 70s and early 80s until you posted that.
Starbar? Mmm... Reminds me of the old Texan Bar that could remove all your teeth in a single bite. Or the glorious Cabana Bar. Damn, I miss my childhood... It's a Lenovo running Android 12. I did see a thing about Samsung regarding this problem while Googling out a solution, but it doesn't seem to apply to my set-up. To be honest, I can't even find a proper apps list on the darn thing.
Cancelled more pre-orders, specifically my Mara Jade and Cami SFxPR ones on Pulse. POs cause me too much stress and I don't want to start down the Black Series Rabbit Hole. I'll get a Clone Wars Ashoka if/when they do her but that'll be it. As for the SF one, eh, might get her cheaper down the line or something...
I’m pretty sure CW Ashoka was a sneak preview in a recent panel along with Ki-Adi Mundi. I saw Ki-Adi has a release date in 2024 so you’ve probably got a bit of time!
Knightfall Batman & Robin look great. I may get them as my only proper representations of the characters - Knightfall/Quest was one of the first Batman stories I read, and I already have AzBats Steel looks great too, and now I'm regretting not picking up Superboy. Long haired Superman too please! Origins Leech arrived and us quite splendid. I think I'll be keeping the modern head/hands on him sibce they look great, which surprised me slightly. Now where's my Modulok? (And Shadow Weaver. And Fright Zone...)
Mega Construx mini comic Trap Jaw is here! @Toadimus Prime, Glad you like Leech! Modulok is on the list of characters leaked by reliable sources in South America so hopefully it'll be revealed in due course. I'm slightly concerned Mattel will be their usual cheap selves and release him without all the different body parts but hopefully the bean counters can be sent to the pub and he gets done properly with no compromises.
Looking at the modern Dialone stuff and it's thankfully super expensive enough to stop me from relapsing. When was the last time a Transformers Prime/Convoy was this cool?
Knightfall was one of the first I read as well. I’ve got AzBats in 1/18th! I had Modulok as a kid so one of the few MOTU I’m interested in, excellent toy! I’m on a bit of a generic sci-fi kick at the moment, Bossfight studios told me last year that they’re launching a new line so I’m hopeful for some related news from their ‘boss fest’ in mid March.
My McFarlane Hush Batman just got delivered, typically after seeing the damn thing instore this morning despite the site saying 0 stock. I also grabbed the Lego Speed Champions Ferrari 812 Competizione as they had the new wave of Speed Champions, will grab the Porsche 963 LMDh next month New McFarlane Keaton Batman looks pretty cool, hope they do an 89 and Returns version at some point
Still going but not everywhere stocks them; they're evidently considered as a bit "second-eleven" by shops. A shame as I quite like them. I'd like the Secret to make a comeback, that was nice. Also the Fry's Five Centres deserves resurrecting. There was a guy on Twitter making KOs of them (yes, really) and they tasted great, but he's now changed his packaging/presentation so they're more of a tribute than a knockoff. Flavour is the same, but the exciting frisson of IP theft is gone. :/ My most common pick from that poster is a Turkish Delight. A sweet I like in all its forms, from the slightly plastic version in the poster, through frightening pistschio-riddled lumps at a food market, to hexagonal boxes full of icing sugar from Aldi. If I'd gone through the magic wardrobe Narnia would be utterly fucked
Does anyone remember the Marble chocolate bar that was swirly milk and white chocolate? They were my favourite.
Spirit of Peckham by Brendan Mitchell, on Flickr Like a plonker I accidentally ordered the wrong sized Uncle Albert to go with the other OFAH mini bobble heads in my collection but I have found a way to display him
Watching Deutschland 86 on All4 and had actually forgotten how shit watching TV with adverts is, having to go one at a time because it's too much waiting around to binge. Enjoying the show though, can't remember if i've ever seen any entertainment TV go there with the Cold War fuckery in Africa.
