Wow holy crap! Shartimus has a preview of Hobgoblin and it's truly figure of the year material right there. Can't wait! Interesting that they took the same approach as with Cap to the scales on Hobby.

A Hobgoblin that’s far enough along to send out a review sample, but still no Annihilus on the horizon?

Man, that’s disappointing. 🙁

Review sample? That was literally just an exclusive reveal of the pics and preorder info, as he's done for the past few Selects. You'd know that if you cared to click on the video.

Looks good, but I don't really collect this scale. Would love for Hasbro to do an update similar to this.

Yeah, those are just pics I sent him. Nobody has a sample yet, we JUST painted the prototype. 

And Annihilus is on the horizon, I just don't have a ship date yet. Sorry.

Hobgoblin is great.Are all future seven-inch action figures priced at thirty-five dollars?And I hope Rhino gets reissued.

Well, then I stand corrected. I used to watch Starimus all the time, but over the years I've gotten tired of the way he narrates his videos, and the juvenile humor. So I walked away from them, and had no desire to give him the views by clicking the link.

But it's always nice to see there's still people around eager to jump down someone's throat. Cheers.

I don’t watch Shartimus videos either. Imagine being a grown ass man who’s become an Internet personality and that’s the name you’ve stuck yourself with.

He could rebrand at any time! Most people know his first name already.

That glider base is incredible. I do wish the orange was more orange, though.

Does he act like less of a stooge these days? Because that's my main aversion. I don't care to support that by clicking his links.

I'll wait for official photos of Hobgoblin to circulate. I don't need a video.

I think loveable stooge is his brand. You would have to watch one of his videos to see if you think he has gotten more proffessional or regressed from your previous view of him.

I've had an instinctive aversion to Shartimus for basically as long as I've been aware of him - partially the name, partially the style of his videos, and also I'm just not into social media personalities or video reviews (robo doesn't count). That said, when I have watched the odd interview or interaction with fans out in the world he doesn't seem like a bad dude (unlike some other personalities) so I have no hate to throw his way, and it's genuinely impressive that he's made such a name for himself the way he has.

Anyway. Hobgoblin looks dope. Annihilus has my heart though, with Archangel and War Machine just behind. Excited for them.

Hobgoblin looks great. Does he have double-jointed elbows?

I believe $35 is our new price going forward, but we held at $30 for over a decade, so hopefully this allows us to do more fun stuff with each figure.
