    I think the Kohls is a great deal. $100 more, but the you get $400 kohls cash to boot. $300 surplus towards anything you were already planning to buy. If you weren’t already planning to purchase something though you’re actually spending more lol.

    I've never been a horror guy, but I love a lot of games Way Forward is involved with, so the games look appealing to me whether they're the devs or just publishing it. I do find it weird that 2 extremely similar looking games with similar mechanics, art styles, and even extras are on one release. It makes me think they're super budget games that might not be receiving all the bells and whistles we would want. Or optimistically, they are sister games and just needed to be represented together, IDK. Again, I'm not into horror, but that plush is cute, and both collector's edition boxes look cool, an arcade machine box or a giant VHS style? I like the VHS stuff games like Blazing Chrome have, but I can't think of a game where the box is an arcade machine, that's so cool. But the VHS hits my nostalgia a bit more as we rented movies/games every week as a kid.

    Michael you ARE a Millenial. haha You talk as if you're not one as most Millenials do. You are the oldest Millenial of your generation. And even if you could claim GenX you were the last, meaning that you did not come of age until the 90's. Therefore completely missing what the early 80's had to offer us young teens. I shouldn't have to help you with the math. If you were born late 1980 you were still in diapers when the height of the arcades were fizzling out. You weren't ever old enough to engage in the teen movies of the 80s or participate in all of the greatness that was the 1980s. You oldest Millenials caught the very tail end of the 1980s and that wasn't enough to sit and talk about it like you "lived it." The older GenXers are looking at all of you and shaking our heads.....

But a true 80's kid would've been old enough to experience this in real time. I just do not know why you guys want to call yourselves 80's kids so badly. It's not correct. Older GenXrs born in the 60s can't say they're 60's kids..No, they're 70's kids. And GenXrs born in the 70's are 80s kids. See how this works? Just embrace your decade..the 90's. It's ok. You were too young to have truly lived the 80's. You came of age in the 1990's. Graduated what? 2000? 2001? C'mon! haha.

    I'm definitely old enough that pinball was the thing before the arcade video games scene took off. But, let's be real, mechanical pinball machines are only for the rich (by my standards that doesn't take much 😂), or someone who is a "true" fanboy/girl. That is why, ever since my electronic but "toyish" prob 1/4 or 1/3 size pinball machine I got back in 76' (I think it came from the Sear Christmas Wish book) owning one has been my decades long dream. The ATGames Pinball HD and now the 4K (even with the ZEN issues) has been the best option for me. I am glad that I was part of the first wave and got the early discounts, without losing options that are part of the new Starter option. DPubs and I are lucky we have live in area where places like Starfighters Arcade are available , as well as others in the Phoenix area to get our fix. Heck, yesterday I took a two of my older grandkids to Arizona Mills Mall and went to TILTS and did some gaming there(Freaking Expensive! Less than an hour for $50 bucks😢). MichaelB Have a blast at the Chicago Pinball Expo.

    You're thinking of Vera. Also the greatest injustice was Shelly getting his throat slit off-screen. I hated that character so much! The Eel's a great looking figure. I still need to get one. It was one of my favorite Cobra Troopers from the original line and modern 4" line. I hope they reuse the helmet for Wetsuit. I was disappointed that the modern 4" Wetsuit from the Assault on Cobra Island set didn't come with a helmet because he was one of my first Joe figures when I was a kid.* I ended up grabbing an extra Eel and painting the helmet so Wetsuit would look right. It's not an exact match, but it's close enough that they could get away with it. *Wetsuit, Leatherneck, and a Viper were my first three, and I got the Cobra Hydro-Sled with them. All of them came out in 1986, so it had to be my 4th birthday (or maybe my 5th if they came out later in the year, since I was born in April).

There's definitely some QC issues, and some of the figures could use a little more paint, but they do a decent job recreating the likeness of the figures. I have a bunch of them, mostly TMNT, thanks to the sales that were going on last year. There's really only a handful I'd pay full price for, but I was happy with pretty much all of them at that 50% off price, so I hope you like it. 🙂

My Green Ranger's hip joint snapped off immediately out of packaging while I was gently testing the joints, so you'll want to heat it to loosen it up, even moreso than the classified figures.
