i think most people are immune to the sideshow event hype train after the last few. anyone who doesnt go into these with tempered expectations should brace themselves for disappointment

Just give me a solid bounty hunter.







Of course I speak of Deathstroke Perez.

With any luck, they'll pop up 2-3 new products, but I can wait for pics to hit the forums for those. Otherwise, I don't have any interest in the social media interaction that is 95% of these things.

I mean some folks seem to dig them, I'm just there for the reward points. If you don't need them tho then I can see why you wouldn't waste your time.

Interesting, since XM being a smaller ES get alot of hype from XM hardcore fans. I'm for whoever does the better job, for me it tends to be SS, but XM has some awesome pieces, but sometimes both are a miss or equally just ok.

Which is a bummer, I mean at this point 12 days or SDCC or NYCC is a good event if you get 1-2 things on your list. But now and then something not on your list wow's you on how well it turned out.

I haven't had access to a regular shop for years. Current one is a tiny one in the city and they don't have the space for anything like PF boxes.

Might check out some shops in the suburbs, statues are probably more likely out in Northern Virginia.

I don't collect SW but would happily buy the Ahsoka PF if she is awesome.

Wow doesn't he hand paint those?

That's the best print they've put out in a while.

Since the first Jerry Vanderstelt BF print. That one is probably my favorite.

BF Print?
EDIT: BattleFront I guess?
