Post Re: Underrated Secret base toys
I'm chiming in even though I only have 22 Base figures.

Dr. Mortality looks great in my collection. (maybe I am biased, the guy tattoos me)

I think the tiffany sucks.
I will take your word for it on the coke, seems pretty sucky though.
I think all the pumpkins are underrated. If I only had pumpkins I would be satisfied. :D
You are right, the black and white rubbed Pus is bad ass.
Obake dogs don't even look like a base toy to me. They look like clay molds in someones oven.

and the most underrated of all... the 1/1 skulls. ( do they even count?)
Those glow spray kaiju brains set of three look simple in the photos and badd asss in your collection.

Mantis sculpt is pretty underrated...but I guess if you didn't grow up watching Mazinger Z then the reference is not seen.
I don't think the Skullwings are underrated at all. I agree with Carl. The Convex figures are not too bad. I wouldn't mind having the clear green Astro Mu along side my solid colored one (I added a little burn on the end of the weapon :) ). I want that Convex guy with the skull head. They just don't stand too well :(

After the Base crash of 2007 I think most Base is underrated these days . . . apart from a few 'landmark' pieces most can be picked up for well under retail!

Mainly digging the fight figures but after seeing BIDC's Obake Dog conga line I can almost see the attraction in 'em!

After the success of the OG Obake, the Obake 2 doesn't seem to have taken off as well as it could've . . . hopefully there's more in the works.

There'll always be plenty of love for the Skullwings . . . a winged skull on a fight body . . . what's not to like! :D

the skulls aren't even toys. theyre hiddy's attempt at creating crap for your house, just like those new vinyl bottles.

fight figures aside... the obake dog and zip face are fucking great toys and the best things Hiddy has ever done.

I'm sure we will . . . just seems to be a low priority sculpt these days!

One of my biggest (collecting) regrets is passing on the URA Splattered version . . . . :(

I was actually going to add this to my underated list. It has an eggshell matt quality which teh shiny splatters adhere to nicely. Plus it was the originator of BLING eyes. Thanks to Darth Hank for helping me get my URU Obake.

Its hard for me to believe that the Tiffany Brain is underrated and not loved my many; it was my first SB figure ever! :P

Obake Dog and Zipface are #1 and 2, respectively, for me.

I wish there were more (and that I owned the ones I am missing!).

These orange glows are really cool.
If I wasn't watching the pennies i'd be all over that bee.

Bees are great! I'm just not so keen on the half and half as well as some of the ridiculous pink & green combos.

Another sadly underrated toy - the clot Pirate, I love this guy!
The matte black works so well with the weathered gold on his face and the distressed bandages. Brilliant!

Not an underrated SB toy . . . but I kinda miss the S7 pinstripe detailing that's on the Ghostfighters shorts . . . damn that was a classy touch!

This isn't a toy, but I think it's underrated. I love drinking glasses and what better than ones with SB figures on them?
