I don't recall Andre looking so anaemic!! To be fair, I agree. I wish Zombie could find a darker Caucasian complexion - most of this wave suffers from vampiric-skin tone.

Anyone actually get Andre's off? I've managed to do it but you really gotta pull hard to the point it feels like your breaking it, don't worry, goes on easily back with no issues. yeah I heated mine up with a heat gun for 30 seconds or so, popped off easier. Also used some shock oil on the knob, so now popping his head on and off is a synch.

Got my Brody in the other day. I've wanted and waited for a toy-version of Brody I could get behind and damn Zombie did not disappoint. I did replace the chain with one from Michaels - 4mm Gunmetal Nickle, I think it looks better:

Might be a good place to ask - is there anyone who provides 3D print files for diorama pieces? I’m thinking components like windows, or accessories that would fit Mythic Legions environments. I know a lot of tabletop gaming people have Patreons where they provide a few different files once a month, I was curious if anyone knew anything about this kinda thing for 1/12 scale gothic scenery. woops sorry I missed this Captain! Have you looked at Legionsshop .com? They have windows, chairs, things like that. Also planetarydogstoys and dusktildawnstuidos for other dio needs check out karvarkustoms, wouldyoukindlystuidos, and crashboxcustoms on instagram and FB

I think for Necronominous wave, the only things I'm not getting is that skeletan monster (just doesn't do it for me) and the Ogre Paladin - the boots throw me off plus with all these mounts and Ogre-scale figures, I'm running out of space!

going to be the best wave yet - I heard we're not ready for the stuff they are going to show on Nov-4 If you're on the fence about Mythic Legions, now is the time. Just found out about this last night. Have they shown any of this? I’m curious! Buying the full All-Star wave recently means I know how much this price tag might hurt haha. nope nothing leaked yet. Trevor Williams aka Onesix_shooter told us he's taken pics of half the wave, will be receiving the other half this week - cutting it close. Reveals throughout the day on Nov-4. Galactus was what? $400; you'll get at least 8 Mythic Legions for that price

getting some mileage out of Arethyr's sword:

Did yours come with fire attached to the sword? I don't think mine has that, unless I somehow lost it when I opened mine up. Oh no no, that’s from Arethyr’s sword. I think it adds a little something more. I’ve seen others use a one-hand axe which also makes a lot of sense for beheading stuff lol

My Headless Horseman arrived, worth the hype! Excellent figure, package, presentation, marketing, you name it - the 4H hit this one out of the park!

yeah for me, I collected MOTUC for the last 10 years and all they ever did was sit on my display cases, I mean as nice as the He-Man Classics buck is, it's very limited. Then a local toy collector offered to buy my collection and I traded some for a couple of Legions. Was instantly hooked. I follow the canon to the extent of the factions, but you really don't have to. I just like the mythos in Mythoss (ha!) about this tower at a cross-roads on the official map of the place with all 4 sides showing off each of the good factions and the beast-gods. And then on the evil side of course you have the four horsemen/woman which makes it even cooler. It's actually kinda cool world-building from the 4H.
Anyways, what I'm realizing is that I'm having waaaaay more fun taking pics of >these< figs than I ever did with my MOTUC collection. Always loved sword & sorcery fantasy so that helps too. And yes I was outside looking in for a long time because those afermarket prices are insane, but getting in on the pre-orders and joining the community is the way to go. And the Captiain is right, pic-taking is one thing, customizing these figures is a whole other level of the hobby - they are so easy to part swap or paint (though I haven't tried painting myself). And yes the 4H reuse parts, but in such a brilliant way!

one piece of advice that I think is amazing and runs counter to what you'll ever hear from any other collector - and it's from Bill over at DorkLair Youtube channel, is to forget about the past figures! I know it's crazy, especially if you're a completist, but the aftermarket is so high, it's not worth it and inevitably the 4H brings back previously in-demand figures via their All-Stars wave. Now that's with a caveat, it's fan voted (so you might not get your grail) and these figs take a year from pre-order to receiving them, so think long looong term game here.
Again, it's not stopping you from dropping bills down to get that Attlus or Otho figs from their kickstarter back in 2015, but you will be paying through the teeth for them. However 4H is showing that they can revisit and give us v2 of these characters which are even better. We just saw it with Artymus v2 and Baron Volligar v2, and Atill and Gorgo v2s are going to be released very soon.
So patience is the biggest thing to have.
