Their MSRP should only be the usual $5 for the carded 'Hero' line. Amazon has them for like $18, lol.

Snagged the 4th and last Drogon Krogers had, plus a Tyrion and Danny for grins. Ty doesn't have elbows so I'll look into swapping in some proper arms, although I'm sure he's gonna look like a gorilla afterwards.

Modded a pair of the wings to 'closed/walking', a neck to be more bent, and tried to heat/cool a tail into a new pose but it's gonna take some repetition to get where I'll be happy. If/when y'all cut in a swivel waist you'll need to file down the stabilization tabs on the waist peg, and glue the back-ass to the pelvis bone, both pretty easy to do. I closed up a second head's mouth and painted the eyes closed for sleeping, but it's a much brighter gray here in the camera flash.

I cut most of the wing off entirely, except for the first and second fingers and the webbing between - plus a li'l notch in the palm area so the fingers fold back without bunching-up issues at the fold-point.
Image

The complete 'Deluxe' kit with 3 heads, flameblast, 2 necks, 2 pair of wing options, and pair of tail options. I hope to expand to include 4 tail options as I figure out poses for the other two and improve the bend-right one. One of them needs to be fully coiled-up, I'm thinking.

that is a pocket full of cool! can one perch on a 4" figures arm? a fairy cage from the outside garden store might make for some cool dio shots.

I'd need to put a brickstud on the arm to pop the foot on, but it would work. It's about 'eagle' sized to an 18th figure so it'd look awkward for the person, maybe.

For my birthday, my wife finally got me the western train set. One thing I'll give Megabloks credit over Lego for - they made their stuff work with standard model train track. Was able to pull out some plastic G-scale track I have to display the train on, and it worked perfectly. Now, if they actually sold spare pieces to build more freight cars. Not only that, would be nice to build some WWII armored train cars to go with the WWII soldiers I have.

Construx Man-e-Faces with THREE ROTATING FACES AT 32ND SCALE?

Construx is secretly the coolest toyline on retail shelves and 99% of toy dorks are too much up their own ass to see it.

.....they've almost pulled me back in.

I told myself i wouldn't buy MOTU mega construx beyond the He-Man and Skeletor (and Beastman :shifty: ) that i own until Mattel produced:

Webstor
Roboto
Clam Champ
Ninjor (or the other Ninja figure)
Jitsu / Chopper

That Roboto looks like an excellent piece of generic sci fi fodder and Man E Faces / Trap Jaw look fantastic for the scale.

*tightens fist*

I will not buy until i see the figures i want.

I'm happy for the MOTU fans though. This wave looks great.

Come on, give in... you know you want them. Have you seen the advent calendar that's coming? You can't pass that up; it's just too much fun! Also, a proper-colored Roboto and Webstor are supposedly in the near future, too.

Wow! Those are very tempting. I only have Beastman. I've bought several others to turn into halflings but now I may have to "collect" the line.
