Hi Guys I have been here two days. I have always been a superhero guy and bought a few figures. Well I walked into a local shop yesterday Planning on buying the DC Direct Joker, well the UPS guy came in with the stores first Hot Toys figure it is not a high end place. Well I could not resist after comparing the two figures and I went on the computer to learn more. Well I have read this whole forum and I have been on ebay and I have bought the TDK DX02, Iron Man Mark 3 Battle Damage, Sideshow medicon spider-man comic style, Black Movie 3 style, and Peter Parker. I bought the Batman Returns Cowl pre-order and I bought a Hot Toys Bat-Pod a few minutes ago. I can't be stopped I have the Sideshow Snake Eyes already I don't think there is anyone else I want. I cannot wait to be able to pre-order so I do not have to pay the inflated prices from Hong Kong but I did not want to wait long. I have a few questions. How long does shipping take from Hong Kong? Do you usually pre-order or buy as soon as you can get a figure? I' am feeling that I am sticking with this hobby now as well as replica props, I have the Snake Eyes Sword from the G.I. Joe Movie and Darth Vaders light saber. But I love the detail on these figures now I am thinking I need another TDK so I can put one on the Bat-Pod and display one with the sonar head and backpack what do you think? Thanks for letting me vent and the help you have all given me. I think I will be around a lot now lol.
