Though unfortunately, she would have been on set with both Bryan Singer and Brett Ratner. RIP.

Claire was essentially the Kitty Pryde of Heroes in a way.

Made the mask and other parts with EVA foam primarily with patterns made after buying and modifying the 3D model file.

Didn't get to wire up all the electronics and LEDs in time for the con so I used Inkscape on top of edits done by the photographer (Mumei101) to get the glowing effects he has on his body.

All in all, it's a great comfort cosplay with this low budget supervillain.

Hoping for a Season 2 so things don't die out. 🙏

From what I see, the ML figure is not accurate to the Movie's design at all?

I think the theory they are putting forward is that Ice Man and other mutants were allowed to be depicted as LGBT as a greater "symptom" if you will of the petty actions of Ike Perlmutter in the 2010's? He mandated strategies that crippled then-Fox owned characters in comic sales, merchandising etc. They're suggesting they did that to create brand damage/animosity and to further increase sales of "Avenger characters".

In case if anyone needs a refresher on this era:

Chris Claremont On Why X-Men Writers Aren’t Allowed To Create New Characters Now

‘Fantastic Four’ Comics Were Cancelled Due To Film Rights Scuffle - Heroic Hollywood

Do people remember when Marvel kept hiding the F4 and X-Men from any merch? Rumor was Marvel's Isaac Perlmutter was mad about not owning the movie rights, so they edited out any media they were in like T-shirts and posters. : r/FantasticFour

(1) Jeremy on X: "Ah, the legacy of Ike Perlmutter. The whole Inhumans push came from his jealousy of Fox holding the rights to X-Men. It affected comics, toys, TV, movies, everything. Since Marvel couldn't use Mutants in movies or TV, Ike mandated that they sideline them and focus on Inhumans." / X

And as the person above says, now Marvel owns the rights again and wants those funko pops etc sold.

Yes it seems gatekeepery but I agree that the quote should be addendumed to say "Gen Z does not care about some superhero movies and characters".

That statement also ignores some of the biggest creators and personalities out there that likely drive audiences to see these movies like Matt Ramos, Straw Hat Goofy, The Escape Podcast and many others.

And yeah, I'm starting to see some generational divides happening in the comments sections and TikToks. Seemed like some guy read some data and made the easiest statement to the media that would garner the most clicks.

Like Gen X, Gen Y and Gen Z all have individual icons and franchises that they have nostalgia for and some overlap happens but more often than not it doesn't. I see this all the time as a Power Rangers fan and you'd be living under a rock if you didn't see what happened with Masters of the Universe at the box office.

Overall, I'm glad this discussion is happening as it's bringing light to something that I've been noticing for a long time that more people should notice.

A better choice than Inde Navarrette imo. Could work for Donna Troy too.

Either the real Kenny comes on board as a consultant, or someone plays Kenny in Part 2. And if they do, how much time would they give? Like John Landis was there for like a minute or two tops, with no speaking role.

Also, if there ever was a scenario where Antoine Fuqua ends up dropping out of Part 2 as a director, he's the only one imo that could step up to the plate.

As much as I loved Jared Leto's performance, Jim Carrey as Skeletor for the new He-Man movie would have went down way better with the masses who view Jared negatively and associate him with Box Office Poison and other things.

Jim would have hammed it up just like Jared would have.

A solo low budget She-Ra movie straight to Amazon Prime that follows the events straight after the movie as well as go into Adora's origin.

I know the normal response is to go with the corresponding core-line figure with my core figures and as much as I appreciate the roar sound effect but in terms of articulation and look, the Chronicles figure is just plain superior.

Is the contrast really that huge? Or could I "cross the streams"?

He-Man is the Chronicles figure, Skeletor is not.

Hasbro's doing in house model kits soon meaning they will likely pull the transformers license from Blokees and other companies to avoid competing with their own IP.
