I've been kind of waiting to see how size compatible the FMF figures are with Marvel Legends - but I have a pre-order in for The Agent figure to make a Pete Wisdom figure for my Excalibur display assuming it will be close enough. Trying to see if I can use one of my extra Gambit hands to modify to his psychic knife fingers.
That's a great idea!
I made a Minimate version of him with simple parts swaps, but used this guy's hands with the cuffs cut off, and flesh paint on the backs & palms of them, and I think it looked pretty great, lol.
Hmm... looks like Hiss Tank closed their Operation Monster Force and other 1/12 FMF thread. Weird.
Joefest exclusives go up Friday at 11 am on BBTS. Here are the links for preorder:
Forgotten King: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/280028?o=4
Dracula: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/280027?o=4
Hiss Tank attracts a lot of weirdos so no surprise there.
The exclusive translucent Dracula and Forgotten King are up on BBTS. I’m eager to get them in hand to help me decide if I need to keep my orders for all of the figures or just keep the favorites. Looks like they’ll ship next month, which could be as early as next week. They’re probably just waiting for the JoeCon left overs to arrive.

I've never gone to Hisstank because every time I've seen it mentioned in a different forum (often this one) it's seemingly because some thread or another got super toxic and/or was shut down.

I keep a tab open to monitor their main news thread for Classified stuff, but damn that forum is a train wreck of antipathy and redhat nonsense and a weirdly arrogant and combative customizer who sometimes seems to hold the whole place hostage and just generally kind of a hive of scum and villainy. Feels more like a stinky locker room than a community.
Honestly, HissTank isn't nearly as bad as it once was. Sure, there are some nutty Vala fans. And a Zandar lunatic who may very well be some kind of Andy Kaufman performance piece. And the super arrogant customizer who continually puts his customs into non-custom threads. They're usually easy to add to ignore lists. With there being so many issues with Fwoosh lately, I've revised some of my presence on HissTank just so there's somewhere to discuss Classified. It's not horrible. Just don't get pulled into nonsense (advice for any social media site).
I can confirm Ashtalon's presence on Hisstank! And I agree about the forums, too. Once they put a stop to all the unnecessarily toxic Vala back and forth it got a lot better. Sometimes they even go a little overboard policing the threads — the mods were real quick to jump in and shut down all speculation talk when the Boss Fight stuff went down a couple months ago.
I'm glad I'm not the only one annoyed by the customizer, too. He does nice work but c'mon man ...
Said customizer went in my ignore list a few months ago. Same with the Zandar uber-fan, after they private messaged me asking why I don't like Zandar. Put a few obvious sexists in the list as well a few years ago. A good chunk of my ignore list left the site or at least don't post anymore. The only problem with an ignore list is when people quote the ignored person and you end up seeing their posts anyway. It does help trim down the threads a bit though.

I remember when I was excited about the increased moderation because it would solve the arrogant customizer issues. Didn't really do that, but just led to mods using mod tools to shut down discussions they disagreed with that weren't against the rules or bully certain users. Don't say anything bad about Super7 around that Jeff or whatever mod. Dude insisted the V2 Storm Shadow that leaked was "cartoon accurate." It's forum drama so whatever but it makes me stay a lurker over a poster.
Anyway the Fresh Monkey threads have been opened again if you were using those to follow news.
@buttmunch this is what im doing. I preordered a bunch of them on BBTS because why not, its free to do. Was a little bummed that i had no initial interest in their Dracula.
was able to snag the translucent figures before they sold out. Im assuming they will be shipping soon. So i will use that to gauge my actual interest in this line. If they feel good, look good, scale well with Classified and Action Force then i might be all in.
The face paint is way more ghoulish than I was expecting. I probably like it, but haven't decided yet.
