Sideshow's Black Friday sale is up. 30% off Hot Toys Iron Man Heart Breaker and Jor-El is very tempting, but the item I'm wrestling with is the Batman Armory with Alfred for 25% off. I want Christian Bale Batman, but I know I'm getting Batfleck later next year. I'll flip a coin.

Yeah Bleeding Edge is mark 46.
Actually caps suit is gong to be new. Slightly different color scheme and it has those scales you see from the comics. Check of the civil war production thread last page for what I mean.
Trust me they'll make a new figure of this.

Welp. I was waiting/hoping for a deal on the Tony Stark Arc Reactor Creation Set during this sale. Come to find out it's gone. RIP
Awesome. Bleeding Edge looks cool. I very nearly bought the ultron one so I guess I will actually bite on this one.

Falcon would be just a repaint so I don't have much desire to own another version. They'd have to rework his wings for me to buy another of him.
Even the minor characters aren't free of the new movie, new costume curse.
Iron Man 3/Age of Ultron:
Civil War:
It's bulkier now, and seems to have an extra back turret and (or possibly turns into) some kind of melee weapon.

Pepper and Mark 9 coming out soon. They did a new a headsculpt she looks better than before.
Lol, that's just the Mark 42 with the bootleg Pepper Potts headsculpt. I have that next to my TV. The Mark IX looks pretty good though. Looking forward to getting that set.
Looks so good. RIP wallet.
I'm feeling the burn, and I just collect $20 Marvel Legends figures. I can't even begin to imagine trying to keep up with the Hot Toys releases.

So I grabbed my wifes DSLR and tried to take some nice shots. First time I put it on auto and took some pics with the flash and they sucked and could barley see the lightsaber lit up. So I took the flash off and took some shots and most of them turned out blurry. Fiddled with some more settings and didnt get the results desired, but here is the best of them.

Ant-Man got a new suit too.
Don't forget Hawkguy at some point will wear this.
Well shit... I just bought the Ultron one.

That's okay, I'm sure they'll let you buy this one, too.
Bruh hot toys don't give a shit if you can't keep up. Just think for a second at how many figures they're going to release for both Infinity wars.

Which is a much better costume. Glad I got that one, and I'm lucky to have the first Avengers Hawkeye too. No desire for this one. Black Widow on the other hand...

I just heard about that this morning. That's pretty cool. Now I wish I hadn't bought the bootleg one. Oh well.

I am loving the kind words of support in this community. Just buy em all, just to have 'em.
I'm in two minds about picking up AOU Hawkeye...got one held over for me at my LCS, but it is a bit pricey. I do think AOU looks better than the Avengers version and I'm not a massive fan of that new Civil War gear for him.

I'm really surprised Hot Toys hasn't touched the Netflix shows...yet. I think 2016 will be the year though. Wasn't there a Marvel/Disney consumer products press release stating marvel legends on the Netflix series (or some of its characters) are coming? If you think about it, out of nowhere (at least for us who aren't behind the scenes) we got the following characters in comic Legends form; Daredevil, Hellcat, Misty Knight, modern Iron Fist. We have a Nuke figure coming. I'm willing to bet we see a tv accurate black costume DD and Netflix costume DD soon, a new Luke Cage and a Jessica Jones figure coming.
Funko is already rolling out the Daredevil Netflix pops soon.

Really happy with my new Figma Good Smile Kurapica figure. Been re-reading Hunter x Hunter as I'm collecting all the volumes, and I forgot how much I liked this badass bishonen. Figure was on sale at Amazon a few a week or so ago, and I had to have it!
Excuse the picture quality lol.
Also finally was able to purchase the BANDAI Premium HG Gon-San figure, looks like I I'll get it after X-Mas. Honestly can't wait because I wanted that thing since it was first announced, and at the time I don't think I owned a single figure yet lol.

Congratz, I want that Bandai figure just for the hair, I am big fan HxH myself.
It's been a while since I posted any pick-ups- the Hulkbuster Legends wave really killed a lot of my immediate enthusiasm for collecting for a bit there, but I've finally started finding the Rhino series in stores, and it's got me hyped again.
When the series was first announced, Ghost Rider was one of the figures I was most lukewarm on- it's based on the classic Johnny Blaze costume, which is a look I've never been too hot on, and his lack of accessories don't help. Of course, seeing him in-person really helped, because as it turns out, flaming skeletons are fuckin' rad, and turning one of my favorite Legends molds into a flaming skeleton is likewise fuckin' rad. Ghost Rider here is a new head/neck and belt on top of the recent DnA uniform Star-Lord, who was in turn a heavy retool and repaint of the AIM soldier from the Winter Soldier line. Because Hasbro is nothing if not consistent. I loved the way Star-Lord looked and posed when the mold was serving him, and so it's natural that I still really like it for Ghost Rider- the new touches add a lot of flavor that keep him from looking like a straight undead Star-Lord- the glowing pupils visible deep in the flames,and the hinged jaw add a ton of personality.
I do have one pretty big gripe about the figure though; his lack of accessories. I understand that it's just not reasonable to expect them to figure out how to budget a full 6" figure motorcycle anymore, which is a bummer on it's own, but not even a chain? Even the Super Hero Masher got a chain. It's always been one of the coolest, most dynamic visual aspects of the character, so not being able to have a rad looking chain whip would make a lot of poses would look awesome. A Hellfire Shotgun could have been sick too.
So yeah, Ghost Rider is a pretty great figure with a ton of personality- he's just a chain and bike away from being perfect. I'm definitely glad I added him to my collection, because he looks great with the other Marvel Knights.

Thanks man. Love Hunter x Hunter to death myself, and the figure is just so sick. The wait is going to be even more brutal than when I imported my Yujiro Hanma figure. Oh well . . .

Ugh I don't wanna spend the money on the 1/4 Mark 43 but I also am concerned the 1/4 Civil War armor will be $600+.
Well, I fully expect that Mark 46 1/6 IM armor will be 400 bucks. Mark 46 is probably going to be the last new IM armor until Infinity War.
What's left, Diecast versions of Marks 1 - 7 right? And whatever other variations of existing armor they plan to release. Still Hammerhead left from IM3 as well.

Agreed. Thanos is like a running gag to me now instead of an actual threat to look forward to. Those GAF spoiler threads with the "Thanos is in this" titles cracking me up aren't helping.
Cool looking figure though. I expect many will wait for the Infinity War version.

Well that was fast. Going to wait on POing these until I see the movie.

So 3 Batman figures and 1 superman to start. Is wonder woman on the far right?
Haha. I'm not. After all, I pre-ordered nearly half the entire Age of Ultron line before seeing the movie, and in spite of being disappointed with the movie afterwards, proceeded to pre-order the other half.Well that was fast. Going to wait on POing these until I see the movie.

Regardless of the quality of the film I'll get Batman and Armorer Batman. That'll probably be it though.

Darth Vader Hot Toy delayed until January. It was supposed to be my Xmas present. So I ordered this as my gift. Should ship today.
We've finally got pictures confirming a Black Series Flametrooper, speaking of Star Wars.
I'm so in love with this design- a friend already picked me up one of those 12" 5 POA titan figures of it, and I'm planning to grab a few 3 3/4" ones too- apparently I'm at work building a Flametrooper shrine.
There's also a Stormtrooper Finn, because Black Series Finn has been such a runaway sales success amirite, and some already confirmed stuff on packaging- but it's all on Instagram, and I don't know how to share images of that website, so here's a link.
