    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    Damn, I'd like to see some techniques for stippling skin pigmentation like that. Been painting props for 20 years, and minis for 30+ but haven't found a really effective way to do it. Single points with a fine brush take forever, and stipple brushes,sponges, brush "flicking" or using a too-large...

    Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

    Not that surprising... bigger corp behind it doing marketing push, plus "nerdy D&D" is more prevalent in the public mind of "normies".

    If you were forced to have only 5 figures forever, what would they be?

    Hmm... it would either be the Blitzway Ghostbusters plus one more (perhaps 89 Batman) OR a selection of Guardians of the Galaxy figures.

    Hot Toys Batman (1989) Batmobile (Reissue)

    Makes sense if it was grey during filming, as it would be easier to light. 89 Batmobile was my first HT car. When the box arrived I was like "WTF!" Where the HELL am I going to put this? When the Delorean arrived the box lookde laughably small... then the Blitzway Ecto arrived and I barely got...

    John Wick 4 - May 21st, 2021

    I saw D&D the day before I saw JW4. Funnily enough, I enjoyed D&D more. It could have gone so wrong but they played it perfectly, balancing on that edge between goody (like most real life RPG sessions) and serious. Was fun spotting all the spells too (even though I'm no D&D expert). Watching...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    Skip directly to Season 3! (You don't need to see the others.) Well, maybe watch some of S2 because there's a character there who is old school TNG (and whom I've worked with) I'm loving season 3, but I wonder if it has enough appeal to sell enough 1/6 figures. Maybe for a limited release, if...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (June 30th, 2023)

    The only thing I want to get confirmed (by someone I trust, not a random reddit source) is if he dies or not. If he does, I won't be seeing it. I know, I know... "people die, even heroes, death is a part of life bla bla bla"... but Indy is the type of pulp hero in western storytelling canon that...

    Sideshow: The Clint Eastwood Legacy Collection (1:6 figures)

    That's nuts! Seems to be happening so much lately... and then all of a sudden they ship ALL you orders in the space of a couple weeks, wreaking havoc on your finances...

    Hot Toys - TMS035 - Bo-Katan Kryze (The Mandalorian Season 2)

    Nah, that's a ten minute mod.

    EXO-6 Star Trek “Deep Space Nine” Figures

    Apparently, he was heavily inspired by Pai Mei in Kill Bill. That's what sold Michael Dorn on returning. Awesome.

    The Mandalorian (Star Wars Live Action Series)

    He would just do a slight mod to a Jules Winnifield line: "I don' give a damn is he is!"

    Star Trek: Picard

    Hmm... that would mean they were kinda doing a "Galactia".... with the non-networking.

    Sideshow: The Clint Eastwood Legacy Collection (1:6 figures)

    I love my Dirty Harry... need to make a hot dog for him, though. Now... to order or not order "Preacher"? Ugh.....!

    EXO-6 Star Trek "Voyager" Figures

    Hmm, there's likely too much extra material on the reverse where the seams meet, or the thread got caught and pulled too tight when closing. Sloppy sewing in this case. (Well, in all fairness, knowing the extreme difficulty of sewing something that small to a high standard, mitigates it just a...

    John Wick 4 - May 21st, 2021

    I have resigned myself to viewing the Wick films as a surrealistic dance fable. Like the Baba Yaga Wick is nicknamed after, the movies are folk tales. The long drawn-out legend of Keiser Soze.

    John Wick 4 - May 21st, 2021

    Hmm... I dunno... I liked the tracker. Yet another enigmatic character full of symbolism.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (June 30th, 2023)

    As a working story- & scriptwriter I can support this statement. An objective case can be made for the greatness of Raiders. That doesn't mean everyone has to like it of course, but scene-by-scene it's a masterclass in how to construct a film, from the direction, to the camerawork, the audio...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (June 30th, 2023)

    That's my fear too. Indy is an extremely important series for me personally, and the rumors I've heard are so appalling that I can't bring myself to see it (or the trailer) until I find out for certain that they are not true. (Mangold has denied them on Twitter... as if he could be trusted any...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (June 30th, 2023)

    Things like that bug me to no end. The frakkin' selfish ego of someone completely disregarding everyone else who is there to enjoy the movie. Even looking past the manners... think of all the ticket money people have just spent that the individual is throwing down the drain. I honestly think...
