  1. I hear ya, but honestly don’t think those things are mutually exclusive. Characters like Zatanna, Doctor Fate, Aqualad, & Lanterns could easily have lots of casual appeal to non-geeks, then fill a few slots with hardcore nerd-roster figures, and we should assume that variants of some of the big characters like Batman, Superman & Wonderwoman would also make the cut. Rollerblading Lynda Carter Wonderwoman, anyone?
  2. Lol I’d forgotten about the stupid 2/3 Legion of Superheroes figures. Add that to the incomplete Teen Titans and TTG! rosters, what were they thinking? Dr Fate though 🤤
  3. See, this sort of thing is where I think I’d like to see them explore themes within themes. Why not a whole Teen Titans based series? Or a Lanterns one?
  4. Seconded! I’d prefer more characters tho I hate the ‘big set with a few figures’ exclusivity. Would be fine with a theme across lots of price points - but many of the licensed CMFs don’t lend themselves to that massively
  5. Maybe a real life road runner
  6. You can go off people you know… especially when they would deny me Sesame Street’s Count Von Count & a minifig Two-Headed Purple Monster 😩😩😩 I mean, if we didn’t have Simpsons S2 we wouldn’t have Santa’s Little Helper, Snowball II, Waylon Smithers, Edna Krabappel, Moleman *or* Groundskeeper Willie! the things @Alexandrina would deny me 😚 At this stage we are stowed out with stringed instruments - and we definitely need some serious horn & wind representation
  7. Whilst I could easily rack up a dozen characters for follow-up Looney Tunes or Muppets, I do think they are *unlikley* unless there’s a specific vehicle to tie them into, such as a movie or series. I actually think the most likely follow up would be a Sesame Street series (Big bird, Elmo, Grover, Count, Bert, Ernie, Oscar, Abby, Rosita, Kermit in his reporter guise, Cookie Monster, Two Headed monster - would be a popular enough selection) Apropos future series of Marvel, DC and Disney - k do wonder if they need to do something different. Two possible examples (whose time has effectively passed, for different reasons) would be a Marvel series of *just* X-Men, or a film-based Disney series, such as the wonderful 12 Encanto characterisations on Instagram by Danny.Breton https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce37Rbkr-m-/?igsh=YTc2eWM2bmE2M212 )
  8. Remember when the Marvel series was giving us lots of extra parts for an alleged buildable Sentinel? Good times.
  9. I’m still not convinced that they are subbing this F1 series into CMF, it seems like such a stretch, from what we know just now …
  10. The ‘big cats’ always seem to be a pretty reasonable price on PAB. Think that’s especially true of the new tiger, given that they’re doubly-articulated & printed in quite a lot of detail. I get why the smaller critters that are dual/triple moulded and printed are expensive to produce - but it seems madness when you compare, say a tiger to a red panda in terms of what you get for your money!
  11. Aubergine costume guy confirmed! 😜
  12. No. But they refunded the shipping fee i shouldn’t have had
  13. You know what I meant … for me it also dipped me below the delivery charge threshold, but the bodies only disappeared mid-ordering, so I had to call customer services and ask nice
  14. Why are there more arms than bodies!?
  15. Woohoo - already have some gorilla arms in order, but no body, as it went out of stock *exactly* when I was processing the order. It’s like the headless elephants all over again! 🦍
  16. So, they’ll be mostly sold out within five minutes and out-of-stock for a few weeks since 9th October then ;)
  17. I think we should temper our hopes regarding new animals price points on PAB - recent animals, even small and ‘simple’ ones have pretty hefty prices on there.
  18. Wait… I thought you were Welsh? Now we can never be friends ;)
  19. I honestly had to go look that up. I *think* in general usage here in Scotland, it’s pretty normal to pluralise it, though I have to say, it’s not an area of expertise for me. Your biology teacher wants a word
  20. The existing cow has udders. He’s asking for bull balls
  21. Wow. Amazing parts used to make the face 💯
  22. Indeed. Bagsy a white cow with brown spots please. Or a new Highland cow would be fine …
  23. They just look like scruffy wolfs tho …
