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

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.

 

Seems like the perfect price point to make Attuma or M'Baku the Man-Ape. Maybe even a killer Griffin figure. Just sayin'.

Still one of the best values at $35. You all have done a great job packing these out with accessories, @msword

Agreed. For the size and quality of the figures, plus the accessories you pack in $35 is fantastic.

Hobgoblin looks pretty good! My favorite part is the glider. I wish we could've gotten a pic of him on it, but I assume the prototype is too fragile to put it on there.

I wouldn't be mad if they repurposed this for a new Green Goblin. I know there have been two already, but they're both extremely out of date.

After watching marvel legends Lizard, I feel that DST's Lizard is the best. Hopefully it and Rhino will be re-released.

I wouldn't be mad seeing HG repurposed for GG either.

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.

 

Couldn't tell you. I haven't watched more than a handful of his videos over the last five years.

Hobgoblin looks great. If the glider is sturdy, this is a great way to display it hovering.  A brighter orange would.be great. 

The price point increase is to be expected.  I'm surprised it took this long.

@msword - is there any updated ETA for Archangel or Annihilus?

Can we expect Archangel and Annihilus to arrive this month? And what about War Machine?

 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.

The level of unexamined spite thrown his way on this forum is bewildering to me given 1) how generally thoughtful I've found people on the fwoosh boards to be otherwise and 2) your reading is right: he's not a bad dude at all. I went to my sister's jazz choir concert last year and she was singing alongside a band for which he was the drummer. I recognized him from online and said hi afterward, that I enjoyed his (skilled) drumming, and that I wished his Street Humans campaign that I'd backed had funded. He was very gracious and warm in his responses. Seems a very nice guy who is very enthusiastically into music and action figures. Why the hate?

Back to the topic at hand, do we know whether the open and closed mouth heads from Annihilus post and pre powered up can be swapped? I suspect no but am hoping.

There was some controversy around his intro song a few years ago. I believe he dropped some equivalent of the f-slur in it.

I really wish he'd change his screenname, too. It makes us all look juvenile by association.

I'm also concerned about the status of Annihilus' release, seems like my preorder gets pushed back every month. I know Diamond is having trouble with comic distribution lately, I hope this isn't related to that...
