I'd like to see a comics spinner rack that doubles as a Dalek!

It might exterminate customers...

New cookie jar (Stitch) and realized I've put three aliens in a row.

32-inch HasLab Marvel Legends Galactus:


I wish it had a more Kirby-esque head. I might have considered backing it then. I could even live with the light-up bits if they changed the eyes.

Not strictly toy related, but this thread sent me Googling Galactus.

[Dr. Smith voice] Oh, the pain. The pain.

Short and sweet, to anyone and everyone (especially writer): Galactus is NOT a villain. He is NOT evil. He does NOT need to be “punished”.* If you can’t wrap your brains around that, stay as far away from the character as humanly possible.

______________

* Tho good stories can be generated around characters who think he does!

I saw the preview of the foot, thought oh wow, could I hope?

& then saw the reveal & thought ‘Well, @ least I don’t have to sell any
comics to get this’.
Such a disappointment, I’ll stick with my old BAF one.

Here’s a bit of irony - they say in the publicity material that there are a
few bit they knew they had to absolutely nail - the headpiece being one
of them.

Pity they didn’t nail that then isn’t it.

The Galactus statue is nicely detailed, but there's too much struggle in his face. And he has a body proportioned like Steve Rogers. Shouldn't he be thicker? Weightier?
