Crazy things you've done for figures

[Saint553]

Ok, so we've all hunted figures to insane extents. We've all bought figures for outrageous prices. We've all done something insanely stupid when it comes to action figures.

Well, what have you done? Here's a list of mine...

1. Bought a Palisades Army of Darkness series 2 Pit Battle Ash for $45...and it's only a 4" figure.

2. Checked nearly nightly for the Giant Man Series at Walmart, for over a month. (I ended up finding a single case of 'em, minus the variants)

I paid around $150 US for Ionic Wonderman

[Invincible]

bought spider-man 3 figures

That auction was false, the Scarlet witch was supposed to be in there with it.....but I did then proced to buy one for around $100, and then a couple months later I bought a couple for Ten bucks at retail.

Long ago, in a time that almost escapes my memory, I discovered a system for figs as a young little whipper snapper that all came to fruition by dumb luck. What figure I found matters not, just that it was a loose figure that had been freed from his carded prison. This figure was truly worth picking up and taking a look at, especially because it was just on the ground practically begging to be played with. So I picked it up while looking around to see if somebody was about to grab me by the shirt and haul me off to jail. Nope, coast was clear. Well, it wouldn't hurt to play with it for a sec I told myself. Nah, whats the worst that could happen?? So I played with it for a few and then here comes mom. Damn her and her sneaky ways of creeping up behind me like some sorta ninja ready to gut me. So she sees me with this toy, just playing in the aisle, and says lets go. So I get beside her to leave when she notices I have something in my hand. Damn it, she sees it all right and says to put it back. But mom this is mine, I says, I brought it from home. And she looks at me, says oh, and grabs my hand so we can go.

Boy, what a little dirtbag I was as a kid.

when i was younger i used my dads ebay account and bought stuff. then i got into his email and then deleted the emails about paypal lol. then i deleted the paypail history or whatever. i stayed home sick luckily for like a month and i got all the mail first so my dad never knew until he found his credit card bill. lol

 

[newavengers12]

Ahh, HG do you work? Like now?

 

[newavengers12]

I think I have never done nothing that bad to get a fig.... Other than paying $80.00 for the Blue Golliath when he came out.
