Very impressed with the Powers of Pain and Demolition, my only complaint as a MOC collector is there’s no way to hang them on a wall with no J or butterfly hook now, hope that’s fixed with future releases. I believe ringside defenders have a hook at the top? I don’t think they do 2 pack sized ones? |

Got pop and demo today. These appear to be the best yet in terms of close to hasbro or even a better representation of the whole, if hasbros had evolved nonsense people spew about zombies. Wsw's seem to be doing great work too. Seems like mitch has fallen way behind. The whole scalping his own figs and hard fomo press is a bit much too

The whole scalping his own figs and hard fomo press is a bit much too I think we have a few more releases to come before we can make a judgement on whether Epic's approach is closer to Hasbro or not (Demolition and PoP fit right in, but Greg doesn't IMO) so I think once we can see the Bulldogs and Series 3 in our hands within the next few months, then we'll all be in a place where we can say Epic's designs are better or worse than the others
at the moment, I'm more impressed with my PoP over my ZST figures as I think PoP just fit in with the Hasbros/Mattels better compared to some of ZST's overly detailed mini statues, but that's a personal preference

Got Headbangers today. Seems like epic has really hit a stride. The scales great with pop and demo. As someone who gets damn near everything from everyone, I think epic might be my new favorite retro company. I'll take the "wrong" material over swappable parts and monkey arms
