Can someone post a nice picture of the marbled skull bee? It looks so amazing in all the tiny pictures of it that I've seen...
Man these look so good with the inner pour. I am really trying not to do the mixed parts thing... but....
Thanks for the trades. I still have some parts coming so I'll post the other when I get them in, but for now... View this post on Instagram
UPDATED looks like i made a yellow as i have traded the blue body in the middle right side. i need a green inner head and green arm to take the place of the yellow astro arm, i need a red outer brain but only have a barbarian head set to trade...HELP!
I've honestly been venting in an open thread I have with some friends on Instagram, so I didn't think to bring it here yet. I find this really lame, and I'd love to know his reasoning. Hell, even Three Tides Tattoo made one. I really wish painted runs of fighters and Dogs would come back.
I honestly care. Secret Base has already shifted so heavily in the short time I've been collecting into licensed toys like SpongeBob, Marshmallow Man, Felix the Cat, etc. that, with the staple in Funko, I think he's just going to distance himself even further from fight figures(which most releases lately have been a snooze fest for me, personally). Quite a few members here raised some eyebrows and concerns over him helping Funko get the Hikari line started. Am I gonna raise hell and lose sleep over it? Of course not. And if he wants to get paid, fuck it. It only bums me out because SB fighters got me into sofubi and I feel like I'm kinda seein' them die out.
Saw that pic of Hiddy. I thought it was kind of funny. I didn't know about the Three Tides one till I looked it up. Honestly, I would have bought the Three Tides ones. Hiddiy...maybe not.
I have all the early classic fighter pieces so I'm okay with a slow down of releases. Seemed like in 2007-8 Secret Base was releasing fight figures at a ridiculous pace. I have no interest in the licensed toys though I did go for a vintage Felix. At some point, those fighter molds are gonna have to be retired I would think. Especially after so much use over the years, my understanding is that the molds start to deteriorate.
I like the fact that Hiddy continues to do whatever the fuck he wants. He makes toys he wants, does collabs, etc. I don't collect secret base but I admire what he is doing.
