Appreciate the rewind! The ML Rom is a must and I will def pick up the Adam Warlock if I see it in the wild. Retro Covergirl and Flint are also headed for my shelf…
Classified… every reveal leaves me quite satisfied! I love it when I’m in that batter box expecting a fastball down the middle and it comes. My bat hits that ball right on the sweet spot and craaack! It’s a single. Hey if I had bigger muscles it would leave the park. I also love it when Classified team makes me look all sorts of silly swinging way too early on a change up. Okay enough sports analogies. But that SNAKE armor is a freaking slam dunk! I watch for the leaks and the news but nowhere in the Hasbro machine did they hint at that love child of the Hulkbuster and MARS industries. Damn. I want two too. I’m actually okay with paying $75 for each. I’m sure they will be a touchdown! Hey it’s really big football game weekend even without dogs in the hunt. Safe travels.
I too know nothing of Dark Lung, but he and that Battle Armor will make a great addition to my Cobra display. Im hoping the alternate head for Covergirl will have a full hair sculpt under that hat. While inaccurate with the braid it could make a nice swap for the old Agent 13 Marvel Legend.
For G.I Joe my dad wants hasbro to make the 1991 Snake eyes with the orange visor because that’s the one he had as a kid and would love a modern version of it
They used to sell tiny army men (less than one inch), i have been meaning to get some and set a battle in one of those mini zen gardens to represent the duality of man but i have not been able to find them that small again. I guess they had to retire them because kids did put those in their mouth.
I feel exactly the same about the Iron Man. I love the Ultimates comics, but I have no attachment to the character. Exactly the opposite with ROM. Here in Spain, the ROM comics where published as a complement in the Transformers comics, so those of us who read Transformers where exposed to ROM every month. And I loved the character. Even it is important to Rogue's character as he is the reason she changed to good when kissing him, as she absorved his decency and that changed her.
Because of my job working in TV, I constantly have to remind my talent that time, despite what they think, moves linearly. Definitely think about how you describe it during early Rewind recordings when I remind people how time works
Daken is a reuse of a Wolverine body but new hands and different head. I want that original ultimate universe Tony Stark the out of the mini comic wave the most.
My two cents… 1. I will happily take your Ultimate Iron Man. (I know, “Get in line.”) The first go-around of the Ultimate Universe was a mixed bag, but I loved Iron Man’s armor design. 2. Getting ROM is being able to grasp a slippery piece of pop-culture history. (And I will eventually pair him with Crystar.) 3. The others are a pass for me, but have to take a cheap shot at Daken’s 3rd claw out of his palms. It is one of the most baffling character designs
To me the first release Flint looks like John Wayne and Cover girl looks like Angelina Jolie! The likenesses to real people make those special figures for me❣️🤗
Daken is most likely pronounced 'dah-ken', emphasis on the 'ken'. It is definitely not said like 'taken' with a d. The letter 'a' does not make the 'ay' noise in Japanese. Keen on that figure. Been waiting for a new Daken for ages! Need to fill out my X-Men, Wolverine, X-villains _and_ Dark Avengers shelves. Dude is filling a lotta roles for me! Banshee is a must to just for completion's sake. ROM too for the cosmic shelf and also the "rando licensed Marvel comics" lineup.
I bought 3 roms on Amazon quick before they sold out! 1 for me the other 2 for my brothers. We love rom he’s the only one from this wave I’m interested in. He’s sold out on bbts also
It's irksome that the killing joke joker is basically entirely reuse, they didn't paint details like the buckles but they're certainly going to charge more for it because of a cardboard background.
For what it's worth, yesterday I heard someone whose last name is Daken pronounce it the same as you. Can't wait to get that Bastet, that little slice of mythology has always fascinated me. I usually end up missing the boat on those, but not this time. Thanks, Robo!
It's telling that ROM is IMMEDIATELY sold out on BBTS lol. The boy's gonna look great mingling with my Transformers and Marvels.
Between him, OG Death's Head, and the energon storyline in classified we're finally getting childhood dreams fulfilled.
I do wish the TF blast effects were compatible with ML figures, that'd be really nice
Man... I ❤ Saturday's!!!

Those MacFarlane Fortnite Patrollers are awesome army men. The articulation is surprisingly good, too, for Todd's stuff.

I like that Ultimate Iron Man. Looks like he's wearing a fighter jet. I hope he's not as short as he looks like he might be.
Here’s hoping that he comes in between 6.5-7 inches, so it’s easier to imagine a full-grown adult inside 🤞🤞
All this GI Joe talk makes me wish we’d get a Renegades-inspired Destro. Dude looked amazing in that show.
That is still my favorite Destro helmet ! Some renegades love in Classified would be great.
Renegades was AWESOME. An excellent primer to the series for newbies like me to know who’s who basically. Shame it never got a second season

Yep, preordered Rom, because I think he's design looks cool. And that SNAKE armor just screams to me Pacific Rim Jaeger, in which is not a bad thing.
That First Blood callback was sublime, Colonel Birdman.

time flies

The bass level was really high on this video

12:47 Yes, I DID catch the Connect Four commercial reference and yes, I do appreciate it more than I should. "Pretty sneaky, sis"
No idea who rom is but im glad hes apparently super popular because I was really scared miles would sell out first
Hope ya enjoy Minnesota! I really wish I could make it to Rochester but hoping there’s a next time!
The company that did Kingdom Come figures are killing it with the Batman Hush.
So many Joes... MY WALLET!
Hush Bats looks cool
Welcome to MN. My neck of the woods.
Dope!🔥👏🏽👏🏽✌🏽
I always think of Rom as bright white because of the comic
Miles seems to be a retooling of the spiderman 2 body, so maybe the legs on that one could work
Daken is a reuse of a Wolverine body but new hands and different head. I want that original ultimate universe Tony Stark the out of the mini comic wave the most.

Something tells me the white guys who came up with him do not know that
Eggs and Daken
Hey Robo, if you had to say, what is your favourite figure in your collection
I bought 3 roms on Amazon quick before they sold out! 1 for me the other 2 for my brothers. We love rom he’s the only one from this wave I’m interested in. He’s sold out on bbts also
No more mythic legions until they ship the skeleton horse
They keep pushing back the Harvester! Q3 then Q4 and now Q1!
It's irksome that the killing joke joker is basically entirely reuse, they didn't paint details like the buckles but they're certainly going to charge more for it because of a cardboard background.
What was that figure in the intro? That sucker looked badass
EDIT: oh ok, lol
Not often that I double dip, but I needed a moc Rom and one to open this time.
You never "need" two of the same toy
You're right.
Triples is best.
For what it's worth, yesterday I heard someone whose last name is Daken pronounce it the same as you. Can't wait to get that Bastet, that little slice of mythology has always fascinated me. I usually end up missing the boat on those, but not this time. Thanks, Robo!
If we have Crystar and ROM, is Circuit Breaker that much of a reach?
I don't know if it was your audio or mine, but your voice had some BASS I had to turn it down lol
Ehi robo did you see the lpzz full reveal of the batman good day
Hey what about this and this and this?
Same Robo-Time, same Robo- Channel needs to be a thing! Shirt, catch phrase, running joke, something.
That Iron Man is going to be my new classified Deep Six.😉
Gratuitous generic comment
I have always said “Day-kin” for Daken. Been saying it for like fifteen years now. You’ll never catch me saying “Dah-ken.” Never!
