YOUR 2005 TOYFEST PICKS SO FAR!

I guess I'll start. Looks like a lighter year than most, (barring unannounced items)
But I'm not complaining as the last couple have been tough on the pocket book!
-DRAGONS 1 set
-SPAWN 27 Set
-CONAN II
King Conan
Zenobia
Pallentides
-MCFARLANE SOLDIERS set
-MONSTERS 4
R R Hood
Gretle
-A VS.P A "We'll see" set
-SPAWN REBORN III "Err didn't we just see some of these" Some pretty recent figures for a Reborn line, but if I like the Repaints .. Set
SPAWN 28 This sounds Promising, especiallt Lotus II, Mandy II, and SPAWN VS. URIZEN???
That's either gonna be a really big Urizen or a really little Spawn [img]wink.gif[/img] I love the idea though!
-MOTLEY CRUE II?? That was a surprise, but sounds good to me.
-ELVIS 4 Oh yeah!
-SLASH Oh Yeah! (again)

For me it's-
Monsters

lots of people don't, but I like Humpty Dumpty-
(maybe the coolest figure in the line)
But he looks a bit more like Tweedle Dee.....
or perhaps Tweedle Dum.....

mayhaps it's the hat........

Spawn (28 is it?) & probably AvP

that's it so far..............

Spawn and nothing else.

Some Conan 2 stuff and Spawn, that's about it for me.

Don,t need a new Elvis althought it looks great.
Don't need a new Motley Crue box set since I just bought one.
We haveNt, seen SLASH yet (wich I'm waiting for)
There's a few sports figure I might buy (still don't get why we're at Wayne Gretzky 8 for christ sakes!!!!)

No movie maniacs news.

Dragons
Monsters 4

....that's it

Spawn 28 for me the whole set
Some reborn I aint that hyped about repaints.
(Dragons 2..I still havent decided if I want a whole set of Dragons 1 )
Soldiers..I dunno..perhapps..

my wife might dig the Dragon stuff.........

Lighter year than most (as Darth said barring unannounced lines)

Spawn 27 and boxed set
Spawn Reborn 3
Spawn 28 and Boxed set

Dragons 1 and boxed set
Dragons 2 and boxed set

Conan 2

Motley Crue Boxed set 2
Slash
Elvis 4

Wallace and Grommit 3- inch line
Wallace and Grommit 6- inch line

From Monsters 4 - probably Red, Muffet and Gretel

and then prob a few from MM8 when that is announced.

The soldiers line doesn't interest me, but it will my brother, so I will more than likely get a few if not all of those to give as gifts to him

im buying everything including all sports lines except for the 3 stupid cartoon lines and soldiers.

Dragons for sure.

Probably Cyber Spawn 2 from S28.

Slash.

Will wait and see what Corpse Bride is all about.

I like the Red Riding Hood fig but don't care for the rest of Monsters. I was never really into that line anyway.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Can't wait to see this figure!
Hope there's some vac-metal in there........

really wish "Bottom Line" didn't have such a bad rep, I'd love a new one~

I'll be getting some of monsters 4. Gretel and Riding Hood are musts. I'm not so sure about Miss Muffet. She's, ah, rather interesting..a hot pink gimp mask? wow. I wonder how people who got their panties in a twist over dorothy will react to the females in this line.

I hate humpty dumpty, hansel is sort of "eh" (I don't think he goes all that well with Gretel), and peter pumpkin eater is one I'll have to see in person.

Reborn and s28 sound promising. viper king, warrior lilith, lotus angel, mandarin spawn, yet another raven spawn..kick ass.
Though to be honest, I'd rather have seen another Necromancer instead of warrior lilith. Lilith is still a more recent figure, so it struck me as odd that they'd put her in Reborn.

Dragons 2, of course. even though there are no pictures or even a lineup announced. I just love dragons. Perhaps one day the Horrid will appear in the reborn line, with strong joints and better sculpting.

I'm interested in seeing these "corpse bride" figures/plushes/bobbleheads/ect. I hope we get to see pictures soon.

I'll probably have to get Wallace and Gromit. Other than that...well, there are several things that are interesting in theory, but McF will just fuck up the execution like usual, so I won't bother to get excited over 'em.

Nothing. I'm quitting and getting rid of everything I have.

Tort, LMAO! Thank you, I knew there was a good analogy re: "Miss Muffet" I had to be on the same track, but just on a slower train .

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">[img]biggrin.gif[/img] http://pages.prodigy.net/indianahawkeye/newpage12/1.gif

<font size="14">ELVIS!</font>
the 3 older Reborn figs.
those are for sures...

ser 28, I'll have to see, but it sounds good.
AvP, perhaps, if they are similar to the old Monsters playsets...

Crue 2? depends on the album.
probably, if it's Theatre of Pain. not a huge fan of that album, but loved the live show.

that's probably it.

oh, and <font size="14">ELVIS!!!!</font> [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

I missed alot yesterday, so today was eye opening.

1. Monsters- I'll need better pics, but so far the previously seen Little Red is my fave of the bunch. Then Gretel, then Hansel but mainly for the sake of being a prop like the Jars of Freaks. I KNEW Humpty would be guts and gore, but I didn't think he'd be a flesh and blood person on the outside. They could've been more imaginative with some of these, but at least there's some highlights.

2. Elvis, pretty likely I'll get him.

3. Zombie Spawn 2 and Grave Digger 2!!! Zombie alone would be cool, but alone with GD, Lotus, Mandy 2, Cyber Spawn, etc, I may get the whole line if the pics are positive. But I'll skip Urizen, bleh.

4. Burton stuff- If the movie's great and the toys look cool, it's possible.

5. I can't think of anything else. [img]eek.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Umm Yeah - OK

I've got dibs on your ML chase figs then! [img]wink.gif[/img]

<font size="6">GRETEL</font>

<font size="5">URIZEN</font>

and the Soldiers

Corpse Bride figures
Corpse Bride 3"ers - maybe
Zombie Spawn - maybe, depending on how he looks
Simpsons - maybe

AvP 2
Corpse bride Figures (well, interested a little)
Dragons 1 and 2
Spawn 28
Reborn 3
The Simpsons
Wallace and Gromit
Conan 2
Slash
Monsters 4

with the exception of that piece of shit Humpty Dumpty, and, Miss Muffet's not bad, but she's in a full bondage mask and get-up, it's basically a characterization of all our sterotyping jokes [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Probably:

-Corpse Bride (I'm a sucker for Tim Burton stuff)
-Spawn S 28 (Zombie Spawn, Gravedigger, Urizen)
-Spawn Reborn 2 (Gravedigger)
-Wallace & Gromit (love those movies)
-Elvis 4

Maybe:

-AvP (ONLY if they're 4")
-Simpsons (4", depending on characters, too)

I'm really, really disappointed by Monsters 4, so I won't be picking those up, unfortunately. When the theme was announced, I wanted to give it a chance, but looking at today's pics, there's nothing there for me (y'know, like monsters). Bummed about that.

DEFINITELY Soldiers, series 27 and 28, and Wallace and Gromit .. that'll do me just nicely until 2006. They had just BETTER make the Trousers and Penguin from Wallace and Gromit!!

Of course, I'll probably nab the ladies of Monsters 4 to keep in a box because my wife will hate them.

AvP2 perhaps.

Simpsons... we'll see how they look.

MM8 - we'll see when they announce what it will be.

Maybe some of the Reborns... we'll see how they're done.

Good year. Very good year.

Red Hood
Gretel

Soldiers

Some Spawn stuff
