@handsome There's the Ice Man base from the Select but probably not what you're looking for
Halloween figures officially didn’t make it. They didn’t get enough preorders so the whole wave isn’t happening. Said they may do a limited release next fall, but nothing set.
The bonus accessory sets for this Christmas went up today. One with an extra Santa head, some hands, and few extras than the hat pack with four Santa hats.
Ordered 2 hats packs so I can stick them on Figrin D’an and his Jizz Boys.
@boy_wonder Seems wild to me just how fast the hats were gone. I didn't even see them in stock. Glad I grabbed the other set though so I can turn my cyborg Santa into a "normal" Santa while he's undercover, closing in on his targets.
I'm wondering if there's any bases, like the kind that came with the ToyBiz Marvel Legends or Diamond Select Marvel figures, that are snowy and could work with a Santa figure.
The face off 2-pack of Wolverine/Sabretooth had a snow themed stand.
PS -- Thanks for the reminder. I'll have to dig that out soon.
I’m sure there’ll be changes and additions as the season goes on, but got my figures set up this morning. Definitely want the holiday Ewok. And even though I’m doubting it’ll happen, BBTS’ estimation of D13 Jesus showing up in December would be cool.
Clearly, wave 2 isn’t arriving on-time because not enough people believe in Santa Claus.
I love the look of the 'checking it twice' Santa, I think he looks badass as an action figure.
But I don't like the baseball bats as weapons. I feel like he should have a more Christmas themed weapon. So I'm thinking of picking up some plastic candy canes like this and have him holding one of those:
The only thing is they might be too wide for him to hold in his hands. Maybe I can heat the hands and get them to grip the candy cane.
@handsome You could also go for a toy crowbar and paint it candy cane colors. Super Action stuff has some crowbar 1/12 props in his store and that would work perfectly with a little splash of paint. https://www.superactionstuff.com/products/the-crowbar
That's a good idea. But yeah, I have such little faith in my painting skills that I'm sure I'd screw up something as simple as painting a white stripe.
Fresh Monkey Fiction is teasing the next wave on their Facebook page (hope the link works): Facebook
Looking like demon reindeer legs to me...
@fac Mmm, could be Reindeer legs. For whatever reason I'm skeptical they'll go that big on wave 3, but maybe that's just being overly cautious in my hopes. It could also be demon Krampus legs.
A few weeks ago they responded on the Facebook page to a comment someone was hoping for "snowmen, gingerbread men, and reindeer" with "You'll get one of those". I think reindeer in various styles (robot, zombie, evil, cute, camouflaged, etc.) has a lot of appeal.
@fac Oh yeah, I remember that comment, I'm just thinking the first two on that list possibly required less new tooling.
Like I said, I'm probably just thinking to cautiously, but hey, if they've got a robo reindeer for my robo Santa I'll be very happy. I really love this robo Santa.
When they mentioned a "much requested" figure, I thought they were going to finally do Mrs. Claus. I don't know if I need reindeer if they're on 2 legs.
