Here we are at Day 4, Sunday, the last day of SDCC. It hasn’t been the best as far as the news we got from varying lines, and the amount of 1:18th offerings was pretty slim. It was slightly disappointing on that front, though we did get some outstanding news from Merit and The Bridge Direct, which helps quell some of the disappointment.

Forum Moderator Mandingo Rex turned Friday into Cosplay Day as he went around gathering another large gallery of images to share with us. Like the last gallery of his, it comes with a warning. The Fighting 1:18th is not liable for any feelings of awesome you may get during the viewing of these pictures. Also, as before, they are large images. You have been warned! Check out the gallery on page 2! Read More »

Day 3 is a little brighter. Why? Well, despite the woes of the GI Joe news, there were some excellent finds. Some of the news was pretty vague, but some of that was for legality reasons. And while we’re dead set on finding some excellent news to share, we don’t want anyone to lose their jobs over it. So, we appreciate what was able to be shared with us, and we’re glad to have brought you the scoop! For more on what we found, go on and hop over to page 2! Check out more, after the jump!

Forum Moderator Mandingo Rex was another of our ‘boots on the ground’ and has been snapping pictures left and right. Rather than pick everything apart, I thought I would go ahead and upload his full two-day gallery here for your viewing pleasure. Word of warning, there are a lot of pictures, they are big, and they are high resolution. We hold no responsibility for the feelings of awesome these pictures may elicit, but you have been warned! Hit up the pictures on page 2! Read More »
