[SpiderHulkThing]

I don't really need any statues, but I'll give you guys the minature golf scorecard if i play at the beach.

[Roughneck]

Sweet Though no posting

[Roughneck]

Okay I know I'm not supposed to post.....But here's a thought....The Pez Dispenser.....we get points if no ones else sends in the same one....for this I am willing to sent in My Boba Fett Pez Dispenser....or an MOC Darth Vader one.....I am willing to bet that no one else will part with those and we might get some bonus points.

[SsM]

I see alot of darth vader pez dispensors :/

[Roughneck]

YES BUT WOULD someone else be willing to send one in?

[FEAR THE BAT]

True. And sorry the no posting was only to last until I established the second post for our team members.

I hear you Rough on the Vader, but what I wanna know is it'd be better to send it something like Vader when noone else might part with it OR send in something really obscure that would have them scratch their heads wondering how it was even made into a PEZ dispenser. Something for us to discuss.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Also another question I pose to you, my fellow team members. I recently bought a TNA Alpha Male figure (wrestling persona for those not in the know) and he comes with a base that is essentially the corner of a wrestling ring. BUT it had a rod that has a clamp at the end to hold the Alpha Male figure and you pull the rod back and push a button and the rod goes forward mimicing Alpha Male's signature "Pounce" move. ANYWAY, this base has a suction cup at the bottom to suction the base to a table or shelf to stabilize it since the weight of the figure would topple it over. My question to you is do you think this is sufficient to be considered a toy with a suction cup since its a base for an action figure???

[Ncrawler333]

Hmm, don't know. It is technically a toy with a suction cup, so it should be fine. I do have a small ball with about 20 suction cups on it though if it doesn't work.

[FEAR THE BAT]

I think that would work better actually Ncrawler

[Ncrawler333]

Ok, then I'll include that when I send you the stuff that I contribute. I'm gonna try and work on getting some other stuff next week during my days off from work.

[Roughneck]

I was thinking about giving up a MOC Marvel Superheros Spiderman figure with about 4 suction cups on him to mimic Wall Climbing action.

As for the Pez....they said the werider the better but they specified bonus points if no one sends in the same one.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Ah, I get your drift then Rough. I dunno. I guess I'll scour and see what kinda PEZ dispenser I see out and about and I'll get one that seems the oddest. We can decide amongst us what's better. As for the Spider-Man that is cool. I was actually at my comic shop this Thursday and checked all the older TB Marvel figs for that first Nightcrawler (he had a suction cup on one hand and one knee I believe) but they didn't have one. That Spidey is cool though.

[Roughneck]

I have the Crawler too. They were the same concept. It's just that My X-men collection is very near complete. The MSH I can do without a couple.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Cool. That Spidey would probably bring us some extra credit points if they deem it cool enough.

[Roughneck]

The MOC is what should give us the pizzoints.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Yep. Damn straight. I'll be adding your name after that item so we know its accounted for.

[Roughneck]

Oh and I have tyhe Cardboard Drink Coaster

[] A cardboard drink coaster that advertises a product that’s not alcohol on atleast one side

If you guys figure a Hotel or restaurant would count as a product that is not alcohol.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Hmm, I dunno. Thats iffy.

[Roughneck]

[] A shopping receipt w/ only the following items on it: rubber gloves, a home enema kit, Vaseline, hot sauce and Preparation H.



I also have a sinking feeling that this will fall unto me as well :(

[FEAR THE BAT]

WTF is a Weeble???

[FEAR THE BAT]

I also have a sinking feeling that this will fall unto me as well :(

No, I was gonna do it. I have no shame. :ghost:

[Roughneck]

Hmm, I dunno. Thats iffy.


It says Alleycat Beer on one side and Riverside Bistro on the other. It's definately not an alcohol, but the question is if it's a product.

I have it anyway if nothing better comes up.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Cool. We'll keep it as a backup.

[Roughneck]

WTF is a Weeble???


Them little balls of fur with plastic feet. I can get one no Prob.




Nope I am conpletely wrong and a weeble is a mighty Bean type thing.


http://images.google.ca/images?hl=en&q=weeble&sa=N&tab=wi

[FEAR THE BAT]

Hmm, I wonder if the mighty beans would qualify???

[Roughneck]

meesa no know.


I think I gotta go.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Me too. I gotta stock my area. I'm here tonite (saturday) and sunday nite bro.

[Roughneck]

HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!!!!!

yay

[FEAR THE BAT]

Yay!!

[FEAR THE BAT]

This canadian nurse brought cupcakes in the shape of maple leaves for our pot luck night.

Yummy!!!

[Roughneck]

Cause Canada rules

[Roughneck]

I have just aquired the Puppet.

A girl at work is gonna give it to me.

She says it's a finger puppet. It's a dog in a yellow hat and a striped shirt. That's kinda depressing,.

[FEAR THE BAT]

I guess it'll make do. I was gonna run imto a Goodwill store and search for a few things. I figured some of the random stuff could be found in there.

BTW Rough, we're gonna need that AIM agent heroclix from you. I can't find some of my clix so I'm not to sure I'll have that.

Also, to all team members, I need you guys to fill me in on what famous movie poster I should recreate. Gimme some ideas, we need to get on the ball.

[Roughneck]

cONSIDER THE aIM aGENT DONE.

I have a little pil;e of all the stuff I got going and he's in it.

Oh and I found an ad With a Typo so we can take that one off.......I sugest Star Wars....but something simple like Jurassic Park might be a lot easier....or the upcoming Snakes on a PLane. Or even Superman Returns....just something simple with a monocolor back ground and a little symbol on it.

[Roughneck]

Okay Seriously guys, when is this due. I know we all got crap on our plates and stuff but I think we should really get cracking on this.

Me and FTB want to get this stuff sent in as soon as possible and I think we can get it all.....except maybe the Hasselhoff Magazine cover.

[Roughneck]

Okay so I bid on Ebay on a TV guide from 1984. It already had one bid on it (likely someone else wanting to enter) I am Roughneck17 so Don't bid against me. I bid quite high as I think we all have a real chance at winnign this. Plus the seller is in Canada so the shipping will be less to me.

I will know in about 3 days if I won,

[SsM]

I would say the original batman.. That seems simple.. and very cool at the same time :P

[FEAR THE BAT]

How about a Batman Begins poster??

I don't want anything to easy. I wanna show some effort, I'm sure it'll help if its more complex. I'm off this weekend. I'm gonna get cracking on some of the ones that need to be handmade (like chuck Norris drawing and the poster). If any of you can please post some posters in here.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Also, due to some problems with my laptop, I'm only able to get online every so often when I get a chance here at work. My e-mail address is frarcega@utmb.edu so if you need to talk to me before I get back to the Hype I'll be able to talk through e-mail. I have it up all night so when i get a message I can respond promptly.

[Roughneck]

Cool. So aanyoine else cracking on this?

[Roughneck]

I got a Business Card with a guy who's first and last initial arte both R.

I know SsM got one but I happened across it so I nabbes it just in case.

And also....tonight I am going to pound out the three verse poem as to why I am Awesome.

[Roughneck]

Okay so I lose the auction for the Haselhoff magazine......I found another one and used the Buy it now. Stupid e-bay....betch the guy selling them is like "what the hell is with the Hasselhoff TV Guides going for nearly $30?"

[Roughneck]

Anyway...So it's on it's way. So mark that one off for the Roughster.

And everyone else...Please let's get cracking on this....I have now invested money into this.

[FEAR THE BAT]

I think its just me and you Rough. Noone has contacted me with anything as of yet.

[SsM]

what do you mean.. I've got stuff for you :(... when do you need it by is all I need to know

[SpiderHulkThing]

i didn't get the minature golf scorecard. we were going to go play put-put, but it started to rain before we could go. sorry guys.

[SsM]

I have right now in my hand.. The business card the movie ticket and the 3d glasses

[Roughneck]

Can you get any more?


I nabbed upo a ****ing wierd little Mummy/Ghost Pez thing.

[SsM]

I have the chinese menu as well, Just found it :P

[Roughneck]

Cool.

Now what do we think the stipulation on the black Yo-Yo is?

I looked but I can't find any that are solid black...But If I were to paint one.....you think that would count?

[SsM]

doubtful.. unless it looks storebought\


so is it just me you and FTB in this?

[Roughneck]

I guess so.

All I know is we need to get cracking.

We can win this.

[Roughneck]

Oh ands I got a different Coaster. It advertized a Burger on the other side...though there is beer behind the burger....but the ad is mostly for the burger.

[FEAR THE BAT]

OK, the black yo yo. It has to be predominantly black. So say some small print on it for the brand in another color is cool. I went to these forums (I'll put a link in a few) that had some useful info.

[FEAR THE BAT]

http://wizarduniverse.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=775

This should be the link. Its several pages of guys asking questions on certain things to see if they're acceptable entries and the responses from the Wizard guys on each question.

[Roughneck]

Whoooo. Therefore my Riverside Bistro Coaster Counts.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Sweet. Chalk up another by the magnificent Roughdaddy.

[Roughneck]

Dude...when are these Due?

[SsM]

yeah seriously...... I was wondering the same thing.. how many other people do you think are going to be entering?

[FEAR THE BAT]

You have the ToyFare Rough??? It should say there. I don't have that ToyFare so I don't know. I think its the end of August. Not sure.

[Roughneck]

[Ncrawler333]

According to one of the pictures in the original thread, the box with the stuff has to be postmarked by August 1st. Mailing it before that date gets you bonus points.

I'm still interested in being involved with this, I just haven't been able to find anything yet. I'll search for stuff today when I go to Bangor.

[Roughneck]

If you can find anything then we would gladly welcome you.


My Hasslehoff Magazine cover came in today...well the whole Magazine so chalk that one up too.


Wait...Aug 1st? I may be out then. If I mail my stuff Express tomorrow It should hit FTB on time to get it out?

**** sorry guys.

[Roughneck]

FTB....PM me your addy again.


And I'll toss in all the stuffs I got.

[SsM]

I've sent the stuff I was able to get... According to the checklist.. we dont seem to have much though :/

[Ncrawler333]

I should be able to get the following:

fake dog poop
4 of the 5 fast food paper cups (McDonalds, Burger King, Wendys, Arbies)

I'll also look for the lobster bib, should be easy to find since I live in Maine. I'll also keep looking for other stuff. Will send whatever I find on Friday.

[Roughneck]

You get those Cups.

I'll be able to get a Cup From A&W and that 'll make five.

I'll also get the cookie recipe and the letter of recognition.....and I'll Wrap up and print the Awesome Poem.

[SsM]

so.. can we win? how many other people do you think are going to enter

[Roughneck]

So Instead of sending the stuff liek i was going to I made an Imromptu trip 5 hours south to visit my sister (Making Stops along the way)

I scored A Mr. Potatoehead piece, A Nintendo game sleeve, The Scratch and wind ticket with the Lucky 7th Theme, a puppet, possible the minesweeper army man. And maybe more (she works in a second hand shop....it's a gold mine.)

[Roughneck]

I'm gonna get the other cup that we need, I'm gonna get the Napkin thingie with the mascot that you would eat. I can get the Matchbook and wind up toy.

I realy need you guys to get cracking on the yo yo and other stuff.

I am gonna drop a few bucks (max 20) and get us the yellow Superball and green lidded toy bubble thigie on monday morning right before I ship this.

unless you guys get one.

So I'll send it on the 24th aand express they say takes 5 days so FTB you should get it on the 29th or 30th so you need to hussel ass to get the whole box shipped before the 1st of Aug.


I'll check back Sunday night (the next time I have net access) can someone do up a new list with all the confirmed things?

And I'll nab the Tacky item with my name and the postcard too.

Where do we stand on the Pictures?

[SsM]

I sent FTB the 5 or things i was able to get. so good luck to all of us :D

[SpiderHulkThing]

[SsM]

the entries have to be postmarked by the 1st of august i think

[SpiderHulkThing]

well i hope you guys get everything in. i want to see pics of all the busts you guys get if you win. good luck.

[Ncrawler333]

Ok, both of the fake dog poops were gone when I went back on Thursday. :confused: Would have bought them when I originally found it, but I had already spent all of the money I had. I found it at the Spencers in the mall, so if anyone has one of those near them try going there and looking.

Also found yo yos at one store, but of course they had every color but black. :mad: I'll check the local Wal-Mart tomorrow and see if they have any.

Got 3 of the 4 cups, McDonalds, Burger King, and Wendys. Arbys was closed when I tried there. Will try KFC tomorrow in order to get the fourth, but I don't think they have their logo on their cups.

Does anybody know any crappy movies with both ninjas and robots? I've looked multiple places, but I haven't found anything yet.

And I'll be checking on the lobster bib tomorrow. Anything I find will be sent tomorrow. I'll check the list one more time

Sorry I haven't done better finding stuff guys. Haven't had much time to look, and when I do, I just haven't been able to find anything.

[SsM]

do we get anything for just participating or..... what?

[Roughneck]

No we only get stuff if we win.

On that note I got the Minesweeper and a Blavk Yo Yo (mostly it's shaped and painted like a truck tire so I'd sday it's black) And today I bought an 8-Track (as I couldn't find mine) I got the wind up toy that doesn't roll and I got a Bootleg Spiderman toy MOC.

I looked through all the DVDs but found nothing good but I had an Idea.....The Japanese, look through some Anime crap a Robot and a Ninja should be easy to find. Or Power Rangers.....See if there is a PR Ninja Force DVD. They would count as Ninjas and the Zord would be a robot.

[Roughneck]

I'm gonna get the other cup that we need, I'm gonna get the Napkin thingie with the mascot that you would eat. I can get the Matchbook and wind up toy.




I have yet to get these things so if anyone else can let me know.

I am gonna try for a couple more things in the morning but then I gotsta send it.

I got the toy thing with the green bottom.....but up here they just have lids.....I'm not sure if it's the same down there cause it says "Bottom"

Oh and I got an eraser shaped like a pig.....I don't know if that would count as food.

[Kingfish]

pigs are clearly food roughneck

[Roughneck]

That's the way I see it.

I had a dog one too but unless the interns are Korean that wont count

[Kingfish]

so hows the hunt anyway roughman?


i know im not much help at this kind of crap or id probly do it myself.

[Roughneck]

I dunno. I don't think we're gonna win....but I gave it my all and and sending FTB the stuff. I just hope the other guys come through.

[Roughneck]

I am seinding all my stuff today so FTB should get it in 5 days.

I am asking you guys to please crack down on some of these other things. Hit a flea market or a dollar store.

I also have a cup from Wendy's so that counts towards one of the five.

But seriously guys.....I cracked down these past few days and really cleaned up on stuff. You guys can do this too I know it....and we can win,.

[Roughneck]

Listen guys....I'm sorry. I'm not sending the stuff in.

I was reading through some of the posts on the toyfare page and we aren't gonna win.

I think if we would have gone hog nuts from the get go we could have had a chance but we all hesitaded.......And from the sounds of it there are a lot that got full points and the early bird bonus.

Next year I say we take this ****er home but for this year we might as well let er be.

Sorry guys.....and No I am not entering by Myself though I did consider it this morning. But that would be a very prickish thing to do....

[FEAR THE BAT]

If you did do it by yourself I would've understood.

:up:

Your call bro. Without what you have we as a team don't stand a chance.

[Roughneck]

We don't stand much of a chance anyway....sorry guys.

For the record this was what it took to eventually get a solid yellow Superball.

[FEAR THE BAT]

What did you do, get a bulk lot of superballs???

[Roughneck]

Your call bro. Without what you have we as a team don't stand a chance.


If you still think we can get the rest of the stuff on the list I can still courier my **** to you Bat. I just know that I can't get anymore of the stuff and still get it to you in time.

And I hadn't heard much from you guys about any new findings..........If you still think we can get a full list then I will send it out.

[Roughneck]

What did you do, get a bulk lot of superballs???


Went to a machine with 2 rolls of quarters.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Oh shat.

Did you atleast get the yellow one???

[Roughneck]

yep

[FEAR THE BAT]

Well, you might wanna keep them all. They may ask for another ball that you already have.

[Spidey-Bat]

Sorry I'm too late:( I'll try to help next year.

[The-Dark-Knight]

thats ashame, you guys seemed to be doing so well, if Toyfare does it next year im in, im in brtain so can get hold of stuff you guys might not be able too. such as other fast food outlets that you dont have over there, plus the yellow super ball is easier to get hold of here (you can buy them in packs so can see what colour your getting) if your gonna do it next year be sure to pm me.

[FEAR THE BAT]

No problem tdk. Looking forward to us kicing some ass next year in the treasure hunt. :up:

[Roughneck]

Kicking Assssss
Yeah.


I suppose this thread can come unsticky now...

[Kingfish]

ah it was a good try lads a good try.

look forward to next year bros

[FEAR THE BAT]

KF, whazzup!!

[Kingfish]

ftb, hows it hangin' bro?

[Roughneck]

The Hell?

[Roughneck]

Fish, you is one unpredictable poster in these here parts....how ya been?

[Kingfish]

rough, heres the thing, i dont have a computer anymore. i have to rely on the sporadic behavior of my roomate going to the movies or some other random reason he isnt here to jump on. i know it pains you to not have the ole kingfish around and the lost souls are all but destroyed, but way of the world mate, way of the world.

anyway im cool. you?

[FEAR THE BAT]

ftb, hows it hangin' bro?

Its hangin' bro. And you, everything good??

[Roughneck]

It's Hanging good....the LOST SOULS have been all but Extinguished....FTB and Me Fell back to the Products forum....though he dares to leave here every now and again and go back to community.....For me, without the SOULS community had no purpose...SO I stay here.....I still chat at SHF from time to time....I don't know what ever became of ICE....Liz got ivorced and doens't have a Computer.

Me and FTB got a new little Posse here.....though FTB pretty much Renounced His LOST SOULdom.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Liz ended up getting divorced?? So the guy really was doing that crazy **** on the computer?? Pics of his d*** and all that???

[Roughneck]

yep

[FEAR THE BAT]

Daaaamn. Thats f**in' crazy.

That dude was doing some pretty raunchy stuff. Had he been meeting up with chicks and banging them too???

[Roughneck]

He said he never did....but we all think he did.
His main defense was that she cheated on him with me. And apparently he had a **** load of proof that it happened.

Which is odd cause nothing happened. The guy is just a ****ing tool.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Why haven't you served him a platter of Rough Justice yet???

[Roughneck]

No...he's kinda nuts

[Kingfish]

since when is the neck' scared of anyone?

i mean besides ftb of course.

[Kingfish]

Liz ended up getting divorced?? So the guy really was doing that crazy **** on the computer?? Pics of his d*** and all that???

wow have i been out of touch

[Kingfish]

and it looks like ice only goes to the roleplaying area anymore

[Roughneck]

Too bad.....And I aint scared.....just worried about my face.


No really, she's done with him and he;s a jerk...there's no sense going after him now.

[Kingfish]

roughneck whats goin on buddy?

[FEAR THE BAT]

Too bad.....And I aint scared.....just worried about my face.


No really, she's done with him and he;s a jerk...there's no sense going after him now.

So whats this "he's nuts" s***??? Did he tell you he'd do something to you???

[Roughneck]

no but the guy is clearly insane....I don't fight insane people.

[FEAR THE BAT]

How do you figure he's insane?? Because he put pics of his d*** on the net?? Thats not insane, thats just perv.

[Roughneck]

Not insane, but he's the kind of Nuts you don't want to fight....The Violent type that wouldn't know when to stop if for some reaosn he got th upper hand.....It just aint worth it.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Ah.....like myself.

[Kingfish]

if roughneck claims to not be scared then we should all believe him and then laugh behind his back at a later date.

[FEAR THE BAT]

I think thats the way to go. Good thinking KF. :up:

[Kingfish]

its what im here for

[FEAR THE BAT]

And thats why i appreciate your thinking.

[Kingfish]

and its your appreciation that keeps me thinking that way bro

[FEAR THE BAT]

We feed of one another.

But not in the lets-eat-chocolate-and-whipped-cream-off-each-others-nipples kinda way. :o

[Kingfish]

natch

just in that ones ideas spur the other on to greatness way.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Exactly.

We got that mental vibe bro, its crazy. So, whats new??

[Kingfish]

not alot goin' on out here. job sucks.

what about you dude?

[FEAR THE BAT]

Eh....I'm alright. Had some stuff stolen outta my ride this past Saturday night my dumbass left in there. Wasn't any speakers and amp like back a few years ago. This time it was some stuff I had just received in trades and some shoes and my backpack with alotta my stuff (wallet, phone charger, notebooks, cds, etc). I just wanna find out what little a$$holes were behind it so they can get their just due.

Other than that everythings cool. Family is good.

[SsM]

don't worry ftb.. kharma will get them sooner or later

[Kingfish]

that sucks dude. used to know some guys who were insanely good at getting into cars. window open a crack or anything like that and they were in.

[FEAR THE BAT]

don't worry ftb.. kharma will get them sooner or later

Honestly bro, it better be kharma that gets to them first.

[FEAR THE BAT]

that sucks dude. used to know some guys who were insanely good at getting into cars. window open a crack or anything like that and they were in.

Yeah, well, I asked for it. I left one of my doors unlocked. Long story short I did some yard work and helped my pops with some things and i was dog tired once I was done. I planned on doing all that then a shower then getting my room cleaned up so I could make room for this drawing table I bought I had at my mom's for the meantime. I took a shower and hit the couch and started watching some college football. Then my wife came home, we ate and I decided I'd do the stuff in my room early Sunday before the NFL games started. The whole time I still had my door unlocked since I planned to just take the shower and leave right after I was done outside. My wife says she's gonna go get us some ice cream for me and the kids when she sees my trunk and driver door wide open. I go outside, BAM, my s*** has been jacked. :cmad:

[SsM]

I always leave my doors unlocked :/

maybe I shouldnt considering I have like 200 dollars worth of figs in my trunk ;x

[FEAR THE BAT]

Go get that s*** outta there now. If you should learn anything from what happened to me and Rough is not to keep the figs in the trunk.

[Kingfish]

i have way too many cds floating around my truck to leave it unlocked.

plus i have to park in a structure for work which is practically an invitation.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Tell me about it. The parking garage here at the hospital has break ins every few months. Lousy f***in' bastards.

[SsM]

Go get that s*** outta there now. If you should learn anything from what happened to me and Rough is not to keep the figs in the trunk. i have no room for them in here :(

[FEAR THE BAT]

Then make room. You wanna stumble over boxes inside your house/apt or go to your car and find them gone???

[Kingfish]

he does have a point dude. stack that s***

[FEAR THE BAT]

See, genius does not lie and KF=genius

[Kingfish]

so ftb what do you think about ledger as the joker?

[FEAR THE BAT]

Well, I'm willing to give him a chance. i've seen some decent manips of him as the Joker but that doesn't prove anything. He's gotta act it out. I think he can, but whether he will is the question. I'm not throwing fits like some people though. I think thats absurd.

[Kingfish]

i dont think he'll be bad, but its hard to get the jokes out the mind. i would think the jokes would drive you nuts.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Nah. Its all in good fun.
Now if the Batsuit gets nips again I will be ready to kill.

[Kingfish]

tell ya dude im psyched about the iron man movie

[FEAR THE BAT]

Me too. And the ghost Rider movie doesn't look bad either.

But I'm amped up for the IM movie. I hope its better than Supes Returns quite honestly.

[Kingfish]

yeah ghost rider looks alright but im hopefully will be the s***.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Yes, IM better be awesome. I saw some sample stuff Adi Granov did for the armor.

[Kingfish]

yeah hopefully the armor will look awesome and tom cruise will in no way be involved.

[FEAR THE BAT]

My bad, the stuff was done by anotyher guy but he used Adi Granov's IM design as a reference for his second attempt.

And no on Cruise.

[Ironman24]

I'm excited about Iron Man and Ghost Rider as well, both are going to be great films.

I just bought Transformers Diecast Thundercracker, great figure, Thundercracker has always been my favorite Transformer and what a great figure, got him at Target for $16.00, not bad.

[spideyboy_1111]

Me too. And the ghost Rider movie doesn't look bad either.

But I'm amped up for the IM movie. I hope its better than Supes Returns quite honestly.

Superman Returns sucked imo... only part i really enjoyed was the plane scene.. that and parker posey

the movie was too slow

shouldnt have been a sequal because there was honestly no connection and the cast imo didnt look anything like the previous films.. ya routh kinda looks like reeves as clark.. but he looks like a lil boy as supes..

martha was hardly in it...

worst actress to ever play lois

The kid was honestly a pointless plot and i didnt really feel added anything to the story... as did supermans leave.. didnt think it was honestly needed either.

to me the movie felt basically like a "what if comic" and while i liked spacey.. i noticed that after watching smallville for 5 seasons in a row for the past month spacey clearly studdied alot of Micheal Rosenbums Lex.. from the way he moved to the way in wich he spoke his lines...

over all the movie alone was good.. but as a superman sequal.. no

[Roughneck]

Can we get this thread Unstickied yet?

It's nice to see Kingfish pop in but this hunt is long since over.

[FEAR THE BAT]

I know. We do need it to be instickied so we can forget how much we sucked at this hunt.

[SpiderHulkThing]

How much did you suck at this hunt? I didn't realize that was part of the contest. I'm glad I didn't join then.

[Spidey-Bat]

The problem was a team had already gotten everything and sent it out really early so they had it in the bag.

[SpiderHulkThing]

Oh. apparently the team you're talking about sucked even more, and enough to please the people doing the contest.

[Roughneck]

So the Stuff is all in Toyfare today.

[FEAR THE BAT]

I saw the toyfare, wild stuff. I liked the Crow poster outta the ones, the TMNT one was cool. I was gonna do one for Return of the Jedi.

[Kingfish]

yeah, i saw all that stuff too, but it was just too bad that it couldn't come together huh?

[Roughneck]

Hey Fish...Sup?

[FEAR THE BAT]

Very true KF. I wish. Better luck next year bro.

[Kingfish]

not much neck. this place sure is lame compared to what it once was. when the lost souls were the next big thing and the three of us didn't occasionally run into each other.

ah remember the good times bro?

[Roughneck]

I do...I do.

But me and FTB don't occasionally run into each other....we tight.

It's you we never see.....and Ice and SHF....I talked to Liz the other day ...she's anticipating getting the internet back soon.

[FEAR THE BAT]

So whats the haps with Lizzy?? I miss her, she balanced us boys out. She held her own.

[Roughneck]

not much....she's still working....she's had this job for a while now....

[FEAR THE BAT]

Thats cool. How's she doing with the whole divorce thing?? Is that dude still around??

[Roughneck]

nah...apparently that's all good.

[Roughneck]

Can this be unstickied?...we lost something fierce

[FEAR THE BAT]

I know. We didn't even manage a damn entry.

[spideyboy_1111]

actually this thread should probably be closed.. lol theres really no need for it now

[FEAR THE BAT]

How about to just come in here and randomly say crap???

Since its a crap thread why not hold convos in here that're not fig-related.

[spideyboy_1111]

because we tried that once... didn't work

[Roughneck]

Dirt is the best new show of the seson

[FEAR THE BAT]

Has anybody heard of peekvid.com??? Its got movies, shows and cartoons!!!

[Roughneck]

sounds fun

[FEAR THE BAT]

Check it out then.

[Roughneck]

Holy Nuts....You can watch etire movies. A scanner Darkly is on there...the whole thing

[FEAR THE BAT]

I told you it was cool.

[Roughneck]

I was just watching Honey and Into the Blue

[FEAR THE BAT]

Friggin' Alba perv.

[Roughneck]

I know you are but what am I

[Kingfish]

yup this is the kind of conversation that made this place worth while...

[Roughneck]

Maybe if your two cents were heard more often then it wouldn't be so crummy

[Kingfish]

well roughneck congratulations youve made me feel bad

[Roughneck]

Sweet....>Your Absense makes me fell Awful

[Roughneck]

Anyway I have to let you taste you own medicine as I am about to retire to dinner.

[Kingfish]

sweet an awesome new smilie that i just noticed

:trans: :trans: :trans: :trans: :trans: :trans: :trans:

[Kingfish]

Anyway I have to let you taste you own medicine as I am about to retire to dinner.

retire? what are you canadian or something?





























oh right...

[Roughneck]

I be Canadian...but that was Brittish Speak.....Ta

[Kingfish]

later dude

and if theres one thing americans know how to do right its insult canadians

[Roughneck]

Awww.....

[Roughneck]

I was just in the Stated for three weeks.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Yeah, then you chickened out.

Big sissy.

[Roughneck]

uh....Wrong thread

[FEAR THE BAT]

Damn it!!!

[Kingfish]

roughneck, that is the kind of statement that fits anywhere really.

[Roughneck]

Booby Lick?

[Kingfish]

....


well yeah that too

[Roughneck]

Well, my greatness knows no bounds.

[Kingfish]

correct






in canada.

[Roughneck]

No, I was great in the USA.....

[Kingfish]

obviously not

you chickened out you big sissy

[Roughneck]

I only got scared as a Neared San Diego......if you live there it muct be creepy.

[Kingfish]

Ah hah hah hah hah

its true you wouldnt last 4 minutes and 27 seconds.

[Roughneck]

I sure as hell wasn't gonna find out

[Kingfish]

you and your sweet little canadian manners would get eaten alive. ever seen a cop take a piss on the sidewalk in the middle of downtown? not pretty.

[Roughneck]

I've taken a piss in the middle of downtown and seen a cop.

[Kingfish]

see what i mean. canadians are adorable.

[Roughneck]

Tee Hee

[FEAR THE BAT]

OK, lets talk Project: Roughneck and all things Roughneck.

Bear with me, I'm covering two areas while my co-worker takes a break.

[Roughneck]

No worries...I'm eating wings and about to put in Predator.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Sweet. Predator rules.

I need the better version of Pred 2. I have the regular version. Nothing like crazy Jamaican dudes, Gary Busey, Danny Glover and frikkin' Predator.

[Roughneck]

I'm putting in Pred II right after....Last night I wastched all thre Saws

[FEAR THE BAT]

Cool.

So gimme some ideas for this logo, or were the ones you said basically what you were looking for??

[FEAR THE BAT]

BRB, gotta check-in some patients from the ambulance entrance.

[Roughneck]

Something that says Roughneck....and Toys.

And is semi cute....I think....Something that says Roughneck and Toys.....I kinda liked the Idea of Rough punching through a Blister PacK

What do you think?

[FEAR THE BAT]

Hmm, I dunno about semi-cute. I was thinking something vicious and psychpathic.

I guess I can settle on cute.

BRB, more pts in the back. :cmad:

[Roughneck]

I dunno about the Cute thing....I like the Hyper in the corner....but I am not catering to kddies am I...I am going after the collectors Market.......

[FEAR THE BAT]

Exactly mon frere.

I say it should be something...............dynamic.

[Roughneck]

Dynamico....let me know what you got in mind

[FEAR THE BAT]

Hmm, I dunno, doing Rough as a fig is kinda interesting. What were the others again??

[Roughneck]

There was Rough as a Fig, Rough Holding a fig or (My Fave) Roughneck Bursting out of a Package....or....a Fig Version of Roughneck breaking his way out of the Packageing....

[FEAR THE BAT]

The package. Its gotta be one of the two. Actually they could be basically the same exact thing except the fig one would have the peg holes and joints more like fig joints.

Hmm. How's this for an idea my man. Lets say the logo of Rough busting through a package as a fig is a mimic of Rough bursting through a door or wall that will be Roughneck #1's cover???

[Roughneck]

I like that.....it'll be a door or window or something....Rough can't do walls.....not brick ones anyway

[FEAR THE BAT]

Thats cool. That way its indistiguishable.

[Roughneck]

SO what do you think for a Logo?

[Roughneck]

So you think you couls get something like that in a week or so....I'll need to get it colored too, but here that aint a problem.

[FEAR THE BAT]

SO what do you think for a Logo?

The Rough-as-a-fig busting threw a box/blister. Which package is your preference???

[Roughneck]

Just a Standard Cardboard back with the Blister on the front that he is busting through....the cardboard could/should say Roughneck Toys on it.

[FEAR THE BAT]

So you think you couls get something like that in a week or so....I'll need to get it colored too, but here that aint a problem.


Is colored pencil good?? I can pencil and ink it then throw in some colored pencil.

But if you have someone that can color it on the comp and make it more professional then go for it. Save me the trouble. :woot:

[FEAR THE BAT]

Just a Standard Cardboard back with the Blister on the front that he is busting through....the cardboard could/should say Roughneck Toys on it.

Cool. Now, tearing through the blister or pushing the blister off??

[Roughneck]

I think someone here can color it on a computer...it will show better that way

[Roughneck]

Cool. Now, tearing through the blister or pushing the blister off??

Now....what would Roughneck Do? Wuld he gently tear it off so he can reseal it later if he wants a nap? Or would he bust through that Mutha?

[Roughneck]

http://www.newsarama.com/NewJoeFridays/NJF32art/OMEGA003gray.jpg

I'll be back in a few...I'm gonna pause my Movie and read the new Joe Fridays

[FEAR THE BAT]

I think someone here can color it on a computer...it will show better that way

Plus it'll be snazzy and the actual webpage can be trimmed with coordinating colors so it blends nicely.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Now....what would Roughneck Do? Wuld he gently tear it off so he can reseal it later if he wants a nap? Or would he bust through that Mutha?

Bust like a mutha. And he can have a crowbar or somethin' sharp that he used to pierce it and just rip it all to hell to get out.

[Roughneck]

yep

[FEAR THE BAT]

Cool. I guess we're on the same wavelength then.

[Roughneck]

Ah Hells yeah
