That's cool, I actually like some of these too. I was wanting the Darth Revan one, it's just such an odd thing.

I got the Dreadnok 7 pack for my birthday. I'd give most of these fiugres a solid 8.5, while Roadpig gets a 9, and Zanzibar gets a 5 because I never liked him anyway. Also, this figure's face looks like Pedro from "Napoleon Dynamite". I took Zandar's neckercheif off, its so big it looks like a bib. Thrasher's boots dont look Thrashery enough, and Roadpig doesn't have his armored codpiece. Gnawgahyde looks very good, a definite improvement over the ARAH fig. I may need to get a Schleich warthog for him, though. I also did a quick re=customization of my Anti-Hero's buggy. A 25th compatible Thundermachine is in the works.

Roadpig is definitely the boss of that pack. I want it, ah, but no money right now.

The didn't even try with Zanzibar. I give them credit for making Burn-Out in a format with the other Dreadnoks ( since new sculpt never got to all the Dreadnoks).
Street sign sheild for Roadpig but not his wrist crossbow?
It's strange that Zanya is easier to acquire than Zarana. Hell, they both should've been made easy to acquire.
Yard sale season, so I've gotten a bunch of used shit lately. Indiana Jones Temple of Akator playset for $3 at a yard sale, with the figures (minus accessories). Atom Smasher from the Justice League Unlimited line...I don't collect those, but he was a quarter.

Set looks good. I would get it just for Zanya. The only thing that turned me off from that set was Thrashers head. I hate the Elvis look. Sure the original figure looked like that, but the comic made him look so much better. I like the Dune Buggy, very Dreadnokish. Can't wait to see an updated Thunder Machine

I got that Aayla Secura on order too I like that she's different than the CW version. That one could be her kid. I want a substitute for Mara Jade, maybe Black Widow would work.

You got a typo in your Black Widow review Some drag queens are more convincing than others! I haven't been looking for new stuff lately. Star Wars aisles are depressing here. I got Malgus and the Imperial Navy Trooper but haven't opened them. I'm waiting to see if aftermarket prices go up, so I can sell them and retire.

Felix, there's going to be a brand new sculpt Mara Jade coming out, I believe, so you should just wait. They may show her at SDCC.

Targets finally stocked the Ninja Turtles, so I got to use my gift card from my birthday finally. Teh Turtles are all awesom and well articulated, and their extra weapons are stuf they would actually use. April is now a teenager, and is OK, if you can stand her cartoonish head and feet. The Foot Soldier is kinda cartoony, but not so much. He has a stupid arched foot and is kinda hard to balance, otherwise I would've gotten two. The articulation on the non-turtles is kinda lacking, but not horrible. Posed them fighting some Sigma 6 BATS. Raphael don't take no shit from anybody.

I saw Krangg (or however they are spelling it), and was disappointed by his lack of articulation. Also, he is now one of many (all called Krang), not a character. WTF? That's like making GI JOE have a enemy trooper named "DESTROS".
My big find today was getting an incomplete Stinger, Devilfish, HISS and Nightraven all for $1 at a yard sale...a sale that had sold who knows what already.
I got Wedge Antilles a week or so ago, too. Rare...actually buying a figure in a store.

Nice shots Jason! That Sigma6 Sky BAT works perfectly with the TMNT's.
Weird news about Krangg.
