How'd Ryu and Chun turn out? Haven't seen any reviews on them as of yet.

Surprisingly nice, actually.

I have some small paint slop on them, as is the usual LC QC, but outside of that they actually look and move great. Only actual gripe I really have are their necks are similar to the turtles where it's meant to be a double barbell joint ala SHFs but the range isn't good. They can look up and down fine but I feel the usual neck articulation would have been fine.

I'd also recommend shaving the wrist pegs down to make swapping easier because trying to swap out Chun-Li's hands with the spiked cuffs when the connection is so tight is literal pain.

The street fighter guys look great! Shame they could not include a civilian head here. Probably the one time I?d want one.

Also that plastic free packaging looks nice too. Those seem like a great pick-up!

I finally got the SS SHF Ultraman in the mail. It?s funny how jacked this dude is compared to Shin Ultraman. A great figure, despite how... chesty it looks in the promo shots. The eyes are beautiful, too.

Star Wars - The Bad Batch has been renewed for Series 2 and The Mandalorian renewed for Series III on Disney Plus. Several months ago I picked up the collector's set for The Mandalorian I and II. I need to get The Book Of Boba Fett in December. Ashoka is also due to start on Disney + soon.

Yeah, it seems like Hasbro heard about how double ball pegs are the best for neck ariculation and didn't bother to look up how to implement them properly. They've had that issue across all their lines.

Good to see our estranged Uncle, Hasbro, has cleaned up their act and is trying to get better. We should be supportive of them even if they screw up putting that neck peg on the figures. They are trying to get better!

I gotta handle this Street Fighter figure to see this neck peg. I am very curious now.

In general I’ve been pretty happy with LC’s output recently. They really seem to be addressing a lot of issues and putting out interesting things
