Yeah, Victoria always has good costumes. I will refrain from saying any more, lest I sound like a creepy dude as well

I have no idea what's up with the Bat-crotch. That's why it's listed under "The Bad"!

I'm not sure superhero icons are best suited for multiplayer games. You really can't fix the "everyone wants to be Batman" problem without some kind of very contrived scenario such as this. They're better off making it a game where every player is a kid dressing up as their favorite hero o...

Batman IS too big to fail... but if he ever got into money trouble, he'd just go all Tony Stark and invent something awesome that made the money pour in. That, and I can't see Bruce stooping to get a ride from Superman. Would he be carried like a damsel in distress? Would he ride on his back like a ...

They announced at toy fair back in Feb that Rocket Firing Boba Fett would be this year's mail away offer. I don't remember this (or the lack of it) from childhood, but apparently it was a big deal that never happened back in the day. The only SW mail away figure I recall getting was the Emperor circ...

I wanted to keep the pressure on you. No slacking off!

I'm in the minority I suppose in that I really don't care for Morrison's work, and I REALLY don't like this series. I was ok with the elseworld-ish nature of it, but the individual issues don't stand up well on their own like a good elseworld should. They just serve as a convenient place for Bruce t...

-Cobra is arguably the best one, or at least the most new-reader friendly. It's more like the TV show "24" than a Joe comic. -Hearts & Minds is simply neat short stories fleshing out some back-story on certain characters. the first issue was quite good. -A Real American Hero is obvious...

Thanks! Ep 32 should be up in a few days.

Hi, I'm Rob, the "other" co-host of the Bat-Radia. I love comics & toys. My TV and video game time has fallen by the wayside with a fledgling business and a wife + two small kids, but that's pretty much to be expected. Despite being on a Batman podcast, I consider myself somewhat of a ...

There is/was a 6" marvel legends Sharon Carter, but I don't think they've made her in the smaller line.

I would actually like to see a Batman vs Dr Doom comic. I think that would be awesome.

I got the BuckyCap that came with the giant skrull. That's not a bad figure but I bought it only because I wanted the giant skrull. However, I had to skip the 1940's retro kid-Bucky and WWII Cap. I just couldn't see myself ever wanting to display them or envision my kids wanting to play with a retro...

I collect these. I have most of them and overall they're pretty neat. The QC is a little questionable, and the female sculpts are far from spectacular, but the line is worth supporting. I skipped Blade as well as Bucky & Vintage Cap from the latest wave. I just don't have any use for vampires or...

This was originally a favorite thread of mine on an old old forum that I tried to preserve on our most recent old forum, and now I bring it to the new forum (maybe I shouldn't, as the contents may actually be a curse to forums). Costumes: What were they thinking?! Don't lie, you did it too! The Good...

We need to get the Red Robin poll up as well. I suppose we could just tally posts on RR, yeah or ney, until we figure out how to do real polls.

Another trick, if you have loose joints, paint a little matte finish clear acrylic on them. Let it get in the cracks and dry. The joints will hold poses and still be smooth. Some people use crazy glue for the same purpose, but it makes the joints rougher and leaves an ugly chalky residue. I much pre...

Definitely replace them. It's quite easy to just remove the screw and take the figures apart. Sometimes it's tougher if they're badly rusted or something, but typically it's pretty easy. I've replaced most of my original figure o-rings, and the figures are good as new. You can get o-rings in the plu...
