Does anyone here collect the Dragon Stars Dragon Ball Super figures?
I'm just now getting into them, but I'm collecting the newest wave first. Which is Cabba, Jiren and SSB Vegito. I found Cabba at GameStop and I know the other 2 are appearing at Walgreens.
Question. Is there a website I can go to to find out when future waves will release? Like when will Mystic Gohan, Golden Frieza and kaioken Goku release.

The rule here is to buy all the things. LiK is doing true work!
No shit?
Believe it or not, they used to be very limited and much cheaper. Now they're raising prices and making figures for every variant out there. It's impossible to keep up so I'm just clearing them out and keeping the ones I really want.
Mezco never made a Judge Death, that would be 3A's. A hand breaking off, sadly, does not surprise me.
I wonder if that's going to be another SDCC exclusive here in the US. I've been going to SDCC for the past seven years and decided to take a break this year and there's already exclusives dropping that I'll miss out on. :( Sideshow is having the Dark Side version of Hot Toys Anakin Skywalker as a con pick-up only; I'm not sure if I'll double-dip since I just got Anakin in from BBTS.
This figure comes with so many options/accessories. The Jedi robe (not pictured above) it comes with feels like it's oversized so there's only so much you can do with that.
If you stick with one Hot Toy at a time and do payment plans for about $50 a month you hardly feel it on the wallet
Sideshow usually sells some of the SDCC exclusives on their site after the con, so you may get lucky. It's not guaranteed, but I have managed to get a few of the previous SDCC exclusive Iron Man figures from their site in the past. That's what I'm hoping for for Neon Iron Man.
Got my classic Cap today
Where did you get that '40s-style shield?
The one from the Deadpool wave? I'm still trying to track one down for retail price but I might just bite the bullet and buy one online for a little bit of a mark up
Nah man not even close to terrible for posing. Just gotta practice. Pics from JingoBell one of the best posers ever...
Yes. This figure is only one per case, so he's going to be harder to find.

Im bummed I didn't grab a Cable figure sooner. Been sitting on that one for a while and now it seems I missed out.
So, I got a Mezco One:12 Black Suit Spider-Man. I wasn't going to get any of their Spider-Man figures after people had issues with Miles, and generally not liking the look of the classic version, but I saw that these black suit versions were available in abundance and caught some reviews, and pulled the trigger.
Going in, I knew the head would be kind of big, but the right pose can fix that, I think.
Anyway, I got it in the mail today. I love it. I think it's beautiful.
BUT! There are some issues. First, the right ankle doesn't tilt inward. I don't know if it's twisted wrong, or stuck, but I'm afraid to break it. Not a huge deal in swinging poses, but will become a problem in standing poses eventually. Second, the back spider isn't quite straight. It's spider butt is not in line with his butt, basically. Third, there is a stitch loose on the cuff of the right wrist. I'm afraid to mess with it because I don't want more stiches to tear out.
Has anybody else experienced issues like these?

On facebook groups I've read a lot about the ankle being very susceptible to breaking
Mines been despatched so hoping I get it by Friday
Sadly, I got it from a third party seller. Fake edit: And now Mezco's site seems to be down anyway, but would they cover it anyway?
I have the Deadpool as well, and that is perfect as far as I can tell. I feel like I could maybe do a microscopic drop of glue to secure that sleeve cuff. I can live with the back spider. I guess the ankle is the real challenge.
Got the Bloodborne Hunter figma in the mail today and took a few pics.
His left arm ended up being a little floppy, but it's still a pretty cool figure.

I don't think any HUnter is capable of resisting the power of constant Berserk delays :p
Just use a proxy shipping service.

Nice! I got mine today as well. Still hoping for a 1/6 scale version some day.
Person I know from Fwoosh just helped me set one up with Global Shopaholics.
Wish I knew yesterday :(
It sold out anyway. They only limited it to six per person. Six. WTF does anyone need six for? Why not just scalp them themselves if that's what this figure is for?
I dont have any Mezcos but looking at pics it seems the ankle is on a standard ball joint. Is the "sock" and foot all one piece of fabric or can you roll it down at all? A trick thats used for NECA figures is to lightly heat up the joint with a hairdryer which will soften the plastic some and release a tight joint. At second glance looks like you can pull the foot off to examine it,try that and give it a little heat at the ball joint and wiggle it around to loosen it.
