Also, you note the jets on his back...which you cannot reach with the damn plastic cloak. Even has effects for them. The yellow thrust effects...f-ing Hasbro.

Action Figure Pic(s) of the day: So, new cloak for Dr Doom. But his cowl was attached to his head...can't be that hard to remove, can it? Well, yes when you make a peg in the top of the head to keep it in one spot. Luckily, have hobby knife...will cut. But this has left more issues...

Hasbro is making some as well, so possible they'll do 6" style.

I dig it.

Yeah. I saw that. I'm waiting for the smaller ones to send to my former Work Sister for her kid.

FYI: These are like 1:6 scale.

Since i've been futzing with action figures most of the day. I grabbed Killmonger and added some accessories so he can fit in the Joes and Action Force figures.

Yeah, that's kinda an issue...and I thought it would be an easy fix. But it was not...you made a good call.

Action Figure Pic(s) of the Day: I like this Dr Doom. Not top tier, but solid. Holds the books ok, gun is ok, effects are ok. But you know what would make him better? A cloth cloak, so I ordered one. Let's say making it work became...interesting.

And Valaverse already emailed saying that they're sending a replacement! Amazing customer service!

Well, that works. His stuff comes off and all the desert gear fits pretty well. And I can use his sword for the other fig, pending possible replacement.

Well, no idea if I can get a replacement. Well, I've got an alt version of that same figure, and this hanging out...

I've only seen a couple films in the theater this year. Ballerina, Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four, and Superman. So my #1 movie would be boring.
Just hard to get out right now.

As you see in the last pic, the foot discs I bought help.

Action Figure Pic(s) of the day: Marvel Legends Doctor Doom. Buckle up, this one's going to take a bit. Love that he's got alternate hands, some spellbooks, and some effect bits. Plastic cape is a bit of a minus. Looks ok, but hard to pose since it's so heavy.

It's that Troggoth one. They're the only army i've kept.

Action Figure Pic(s) of the Day: On to Dice. He's also very cool. Three heads, three sets of hands and multiple weapons. I really dig when Classified sets come with so much!

Action Figure Pic(s) of the Day: More with Slice. Another what Classified should be. 2 extra pairs of hands, extra head, removeable hat and cloak, 3 sets of weapons and more. So much you can do with just him. Well worth the two pack!

Action Figure Pic(s) of the Day: Slice and Dice. A Cobra two-pack that is quite good. All the accessories you want. Ninja Force wasn't the most popular era of G.I. Joe, but some of these redesigns are great. Slice has slightly more options, so he's first.

Action Figure Pic(s) of the Day: R.U.M.B.L.R. part 5...comparisons! Here's the R.U.M.B.L.R. compared to the Vanguard, H.I.S.S. Tank, and VAMP. 1/2

Action Figure Pic(s) of the Day: R.U.M.B.L.R. part 4. Here's the two weapon options. Minigun and missile launcher. Both are cool. I really like the effects parts for the missile launcher. I wish the minigun also came with an effect, but i'm sure I can find something to use with it!

Agree on all points.

I'm considering that Hulk, but too much coming out all at once, so I'm not sure.

Here's top and rear. The front hatch on top seems more to access figures inside(a great idea). You can take out the turret bit for more rear space if you need. 2/2

Action Figure Pic(s) of the Day: Mike on Twitter wanted some interior pics. Here's the side an interior. Rear seats fold down, glove box opens. Love how the rear doors open! 1/2

That sounds legit awesome (the setting, not the pressure)

It's a good fig for those who didn't get the one from the Dragonfly...but I can't justify it. I like Crazylegs, but I don't need a 2nd version if he doesn't have something unique to add.
