Just start buying all the unleashed, then you'll have stuff that is the same scale ;)

Nice fig by the way.

lol
30 points of articulation classifies as "ultimate posability" now?

That's the last thing I want, especially at $20 a pop.
I wish the tentacle claws were movable. A pin joint or something.

And bellbottoms are back incase you didn't know, jor!:mad:

Damn straight! (brushes lint from overly flaired bottom of pants)

I think some joints are being counted twice 'cause I'll be damned if he's got that many.

That's the first time I've seen that. Where did you buy it?

I saw one the other day and i thought the same thing about scale lol, plus he was just too pricey.

Thats about the sculpt and paint detail I would expect on a 4 inch or smaller figure. Because you can't get as much detail on something small. How big is it?

Thrall

8" or 9" I believe.

These are out?? Argh! Must fi d black spidey! They have him too? If so, did he look nifity?

Yeah, seriously, what's up with the scale? They're like 10'' or something? Which I guess puts them with those Mego-esque figures they released a year or so ago? But they'd look like crap together.
But yeah, I saw the Spidey, and thought the looked really cool. . . but didn't understand the scale they put him in.
Maybe they are hoping people will take D-Compose's suggestion and start collecting a whole new line?

It's funny, the Star Wars Unleashed figures were this size, but statues.. and people always asked for ML like articulated SW figures and Hasbro always answers that it's not something they plan on making.. and here they get the Marvel license.. and come out with these unleashed figures, that have articulation, lol.. I wonder if it's something more like Lucasfilm not allowing them to make them.. just doesn't make sense to me.


OH.. and they're about the same size as the Sigma 6 figures too, in case you wanted to get some of those to go with them ;)

Wal Mart & Target has them, but at $20 a pop they're just a bit too pricey for my tastes.
Not when I can get a better sculpted plastic Spawn statue for < $15. :eek: ;)

I thought this was going to be another Halo thread.

same here, when I clicked it.. my eyes were pre-rolled.. but I was surprised to see it wasn't.

Of course it's not in scale, the Marvel Unleashed figures have always been bigger than the standard ML sizes.

There are things I can do to him paint-wise to improve him, but unless I do a Gattaca on him I don't think I can make him that much bigger.

He wasn't going to go with the regular ML line.

I knew he was an odd scale but figured I could make him work. I'm sure he'll look fine within some of my other stuff; just not the stuff I have out.

Black Spidey was there. Looks like it's 3 to 1 in Spidey's favor.

Just like most I like the villians which is why I picked him up.
Price is the main reason why I don't own the others. Well, that not entirely true; I didn't like the Goblin or Spidey. Black Spidey is fine, but I don't need another.
I have very few Ock things.

Why don't you return it and buy the 6" ML one that looks the same?

Have that one.

I wouldn't call this guy "Ultimate Posability."

Here he is with a WIP

i think these are in scale with sigma 6 arent they?

Spawnomite

It would be better if his claws had articulation also.

Jor, agree on both.

Spawnomite, I'm with you.

Cardiac, I don't know.

i like this line but the price seems kind of steep for what you get. or maybe i'm just spoiled we used to get icons for $15.
