I mean is it really distracting from the Microbrawler thread (the only other active thread here)? Is it distracting from the 8 pinned threads in this section and the 6 above that? Quite honestly, several of these Retro threads will go quiet and get pushed down over time. Tis’ the natural order of things. In reality there are only 3 new threads: WSW, KWK, and Grapplers and Gimmicks. The “All Retros” thread was dominated by ZST discussion, Rush had its own, and then there is the thread we are currently in. Grapplers and Gimmicks has made enough of a splash to deserve their own. WSW is going to be a hard one as their production schedule is going to be slower than many. For example, the last of their series 1 figures isn’t going into production until March or April. At this point they have only produced Chelsea Green which isn’t the greatest figure nor was it in high demand from board members. KWK probably won’t get updated much by me unless someone is announced as signed or until there is substantial progress made in production. If figures are released, we will see it pop up more (good, bad, or indifferent). Personally they lost my trust so I won’t be preordering. If things do actually get made, I will order one and review it there. My two cents I do like the separate threads for the lists of who they’re doing However there will inevitably be cross over and comparisons especially when different companies are doing the same style of figures and even the same people etc plus it’s a standard way of discussing figures, MWFPod, pixel Dan, Kyle etc all do comparisons between lines etc when reviewing and discussing figures so inevitably I think there will be a lot of cross discussions mentioning different companies not in a negative way but just comparison etc |

You’re not wrong about the cross-talk but at the very least, it will be less cluttered than what it had been. It isn’t a fair comparison though to hold these threads next to a podcast that is spoken word with limited voices. This entire thing is an attempt to improve upon things and if it somehow doesn’t, then it’s not like we can’t try and go back to the old format that lasted for over 2 years. Maybe we can give this a year or so and see if holds up.

I like the separate threads, I have no interest in zombie, rush or kwk so why would I want to have to browse through pages of them in 1 thread?

Was there any information on the likes of Street, Onita and Guerrero? I'm guessing they're gonna be more likely to be 2024 releases, but how far along are they in production?

It’s basically my therapy session with some figure talk chucked at this rate 😂 |
