I've gotta get Nimrod! Man, I love that character. I got the one that was in a 3-pack awhile back.
Not my pic.

Yea, I just got a Psylocke in the Gamer verse two pack with Thanos and I'm happy enough with her , given that I know little about her , I was more after a Thanos figure . No idea about Fantomex, only interest is in Nimrod so I'll be getting it as a standalone figure probably
During the Jim Lee era, there was a Uncanny X-Men Jim Lee cover, I think different artist insides, where Psylocke may have been brainwashed by maybe a Japanese younger guy related to Sebastian Shaw and she was Lady Mandarin maybe featured not long ago as Marvel Legends two pack with Wolverine black ballerina costume.
Later there was a Joe Madueira Uncanny X-Men maybe where Prof X accepted Sabretooth into X-Mansion to fix him and he got loose, attacked Psylocke, and the end result may have been the whole X team got to see her buck naked in the infirmary. I think that's not my imagination.
Before all that, during the Marc Silvestri era of Uncanny X-Men Psylocke wasn't sexy asian ninja yet and X team consisted of Longshot, Rogue, Dazzler, Storm, Rogue, Wolverine, Colossus, Psylocke as UK woman.
Actually, you should collect the old Impel Marvel trading cards especially the Jim Lee set and read the cardbacks and look at the power levels. You'd appreciate the ML figures more. I bought Blue Marvel only after reading here in another thread people pointing out his crazy powers and strength. I think during COVID, Marvel Unlimited had a complete limited series of him free to read.
A while back when I had Marvel Unlimited, I think I read a few issues starting from Fantomex first appearance. Still don't know much about him, except seemed shady, mysterious.
Seems like retro Toybiz packaging 20th Capt Am is being re-issued soon. Don't remember if it's the bullet holes shield.
For Nimrod, how do you pluck off the head for headswap? Is there a slot for flat head screwdriver?
Hadn't heard about the reissue of the 20th Anniversary C.A. ? Would love to get that one at a decent price, shame about the shield but I have two others that might work...
Edit - googling it and it's showing up on Reddit as coming soon....
Also
Marvel 85th Anniversary Astonishing X-Men Wolverine is re-released in a day or two.

That unmasked face looks like he needs to make doo doo but is trying his best to hold it in.
Today at Walmart I could have bought 7x ML '77 Spider-Man for $32+ each. Even long time peg warmer TVC Bespin Lando got a price hike to $26 or so.

I'm on the fence. On one hand, TNG is a formative series for me; both it and LEGO were my two favorite things when I was an elementary school kid. On the other...it's $400 fucking dollars. Holy shit, man.
Also, given the full compliment of minifigs, that's probably the only TNG set they have planned. Might get TOS enterprise if this one does well, maybe even a Bird of Prey (with whales?). But ST is no SW, both in market share and designs that work as LEGO sets.
The loin cloth to hide his erection so Wonder Woman doesn't feel uncomfortable? I don't know that character, but assume he knows WW.

Are they charging you some crazy location surcharge too? I refused to order online exclusive ML '77 Spider-Man because it would have been like $50+. I later bought it in store for $35.Just bought two Ghost Vipers at Walmart and it was $126.

I bought it in store, guess it’s some super deluxe figure because of the wolf, snake, and accessories. $60 a pop.
Opened one because the pistol was loose and flying around inside the bubble, really disappointed there’s no stand. No filecard either, thought this was GI Joe.
Prolly taking the sealed one back on my next day off.

That's from "Dark Knights: Metal" Where Bruce Wayne from alternate universes went bonkers. The loin cloth guy is the Batman that defeated Ares and became "Merciless", the other one is a jokerized Batman that just wants go bonkers on everyone.

i really wanna get this but $400… gaw’damn, bruv. that price point is a doozy.
Cancelled my order for the ML Gargantos . The more I was looking at it the more I was thinking " Are you sure ?"
Maybe if the price drops enough I might go back to it but have other things I'd rather buy currently...

I hear you bro! If I worked at Lego, there's no way I'd charge that much.

The shitty thing is that, at $0.111 per piece, it's not out of line with other sets. UCS Millenium Falcon is $0.113. The Dune Thopter is $0.121. Transformers Soundwave is $0.126. The Pirates ship is a whopping $0.133. But there's also some much better priced sets like Rivendale at $0.081 or the DnD red dragon set at $0.096.
It's just they swung big for the first set instead of doing something like a series of smaller sets (a smaller ship design, maybe the bridge with crew, perhaps a tricorder).
