Short blog update, there will be more next week once the poll is done. Three more figures to announce and a contest to get started for the last figure in the extension.

Sneak peeks.

Forge. Love it, definitely will be joining my X-ranks.

Karnak. Ugh. What are these sculptors using for reference? Another Inhuman that won't be in my collection.

Marvel's problem is that they use "CLASSIC" in the name for their figurines, whereas DC, at least, doesn't use that pretense.  So when you see an off figurine from Marvel it makes it that much harder to swallow.

Karnak looks ok to me.

Klaw and Grim Reaper arrived yesterday - both quite nice sculps....but starting to run out of space.......have to get a new cabinet methinks!

Karnak is a bit beefy, but mostly it will depend on how tall the figure is.

The voting ended this week and entries 17-19 in the next expansion are going to Domino, Avalanche and Arachne (the Spider-Woman introduced in Secret Wars). Next week will be an announcement of a contest allowing one person to pick who will be in the last spot.

I'm happy to have Avalanche and Arachne. I don't care a bit about Domino.

Blog update!  Competition time!  You don't need to join anything, just be able to send an email and recognize a few extreme close-ups of figures.

Sneak peeks:

Silver Sable.  That's an uncomfortable looking way to hold a gun and her little throwing things should be thicker at the handle.  This was a no for me anyway.

Radioactive Man!  Oh, yeah, this is a must-have for me!  He even looks Chinese, which even the comics don't seem to get right very often.  With bonus glow in the dark action!

Nice sculpts of a couple of characters I don't care much about.
