mooproxy Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 Well if we're just now getting Harry Potter figures I'd say it's 50/50 chance True, and there's always the off-chance Pogo or someone will suddenly make like a full teen titans wave or anything like that, but I figured seeing as we're seeing superhero waves for more recent sets and none for that one yet, I guess we're not exactly expecting to see any.
wickedlemon Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 If only someone could take my two favourite things and combine them into one... Crystal mechs! I could get addicted to these.

It's late and I may not be good at noticing sarcasm, but are you saying you like transparent figs/bricks? Just I didn't think those sorts of people existed.
lglh Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 I had a load of stuff arrive over the last week or so and I'm quietly impressed by the quality of figures such as Archangel and Prof X. I switched out a few parts of the classic Quicksilver and the figure works well. What official colors did you use to switch Quicksilver arms ? Any other mods on this fig ?

Robianco Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 What official colors did you use to switch Quicksilver arms ? Any other mods on this fig ? Medium Blue and Dark Blue. I switched it out to just Dark Blue legs too. Thankfully I also had a white official hairpiece so switched out the head too. Some of the hair moulding isn't great on these and if you're using official heads there's a visible gap between the head and the hair line.

Seems as though Pogo changing to shiny plastic instead of the matte ones have improved their quality a lot
MNW Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) The boxes for the new Pogo wave of bikes sleighed me xD "BOTMAN the brave and the bold " Edited May 23, 2016 by MNW
briksen Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 hello, i'm looking for a mini tumbler at the same scale as that one:
wickedlemon Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 The boxes for the new Pogo wave of bikes sleighed me xD "BOTMAN the brave and the bold " Why do they even bother to change the names? I think that's the first time I've ever seen a Pogo box.
Kire Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 So my Xmen pogo wave came in. The figures aren't as bad as previous pogo figures of matte paint or feeling that you can easily scratch off the paint. I ordered Archangel, Movie Wolverine, Professor X, Psylocke, Quicksilver, Rogue, and Ice man. For arch angel the figure is beautiful and it has arm printing. The figures wings are chrome and a but difficult to put on. Movie wolverine is a very simple figure, gold lines on a black body, but this too has arm printing which is pretty nice for a simple figure. Professor X came with two heads, one with his eyes open and his eyes closed. The figure is very basic, the hardest part was trying to assemble the wheelchair. Psylocke is easily the worst figure. I think I got a bad figure but the black lines on the torso are very hidden as well as barely noticing the cleavage. Quicksilver has his arms wrong if people have noticed but I fixed it. Rogue is simple also and everything about her is the same as the photo. Ice man is very basic except it has arm printing for his muscles which is pretty neat. Not a bad wave for pogo to improve on.

Looking forward to mine arriving. They are on a plane somewhere at the moment. Hopefully Pogo will go from strength to strength in the same way Xinh has.
Borex Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 In the new cmf series you can use the wildlife photographer for updating your pyjama spidey his arms (if the blue is the same). Not really bootlegnews, but since y'all want superheroes i thought i share the idea.
ThunderDrako Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) hello, i'm looking for a mini tumbler at the same scale as that one: I know Bozhi had it: I can't tell you about the quality because I have the original one :-/ P.S. if you want it with the colors of the "big" one I don't think it exists.

Anyone who has both willing to try it? Edited May 24, 2016 by Adnan
Captain Britain Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 Wonder if it's possible to get the red star off Winter Soliders arm and use the arm on Cable to upgrade it a bit? Like that little Pogo set though! Makes me want to collect some bootlegs!
adalric Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 next pogo xmen set OMG WE ARE LIVING IN THE BOOTLEG RENAISSANCE!
Adnan Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 next pogo xmen set Wow! Pogo have knocked it out the park with these two X-men sets. It's like they did their research and didn't bother making figures we already have (Cyclops, Storm, Magneto, Jean Grey etc.). All we ask for is a Nightcrawler and then I'm done. I feel so spoiled,
Borex Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 O wow o wow o wow!! But we need nightcrawler too (and a little lockheed for kitty pride). That colossus and sabretooth look fantastic.
adalric Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 Colossus is my favorite X-Men, but I still want a bigfig at some point. Also, the Kitty Pryde torso and legs will make it easy to make other female New Mutants. First custom I'll make is swapping out the hair and arm, add a sword, and make Colossus's sister Magik.

deskid Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) My decool batpod arrived today and is fantastic!!! Great build quality, as the reviews say the tyres are a little loose but for display u would struggle to tell, well worth £12 and delivered in 10 days to uk, which shows some sellers it can be done!! 30 day waits no more!!! Although I've just looked at the front of the destructions and it doesn't say Decool anywhere! This is the first building kit I've bought so don't know if this is normal or another sign that decool/xinh are one entity??? Edited May 24, 2016 by deskid
