Crazy things you've done for figures

[Ncrawler333]

I normally don't hide things either, since I usually have the cash to buy whatever I need. That time I just wanted to have some insurance in case I never found Phoenix, since they were all so rare when both times they were released.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

I hide stuff all the time. I've become a master.

BTW NC, what DCSH figs were you currently looking for?? I know you added on the Parasite I was offering. Any others while I'm out and about???

 

[Ncrawler333]

Um, Cyborg Supes, Mr. Freeze and the original blue Darkseid are the only other ones I need right now.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

You have Kal-El, Mongul, Black Suit Supes, Bizarro, Two-Face, blakc Batgirl and camo Bane??

Kal-el: don't want
mongul: have
black suit supes: don't want
bizarro: have
two-face: have
black batgirl: don't want, have the other one
camo bane: don't want

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Still need a Two-Face mahself. And the black Batgirl. Keep and eye out for me.

 

[Ncrawler333]

will do. I'll check TRU the next time I'm in Bangor.

Oh, and I also delayed the shipping of the stuff I'm sending you until Tuesday or Wednesday, cause it worked better in my schedule. I'll probably go to Bangor on Tuesday and wait until Wednesday to ship the package, so that I can add Two-face and/or batgirl to the package if I find them.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

If you can score both I'll gladly reimburse you the difference since I'm supposed to get $15 from you. I'd honestly rather have those figs.

 

[Ncrawler333]

cool, sounds good. they haven't restocked since I got my Two-Face, so hopefully they will by the time I go Tuesday.

Anything you need from the Superman wave in case they restock with that though?

Crazy thing I did for figures today:

Systematically searched the retailers at Wizard world, row by row, looking for certain figures. I marked figures down on maps with their prices and wrote the booth numbers into a notebook. I spent about 2-3 hours doing this today. It paid off because I found 100% of what I was looking for at outstanding prices.

For instance:

Found one Simpsons comic shop playset at a booth for $40. Further searching and I found it for $18.

Found one shop that had several Wiggum figures for $15. Further searching and I got it loose/complete for $5.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

the two-face set is already out? 2face looked pretty bad ass

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Nah. Just need the Two-Face, the black Batgirl and on a lesser note the camo Bane and Knight Shadow Batsy.

I wouldn't call this a crazy thing. But I once made my older brother buy the Spiderman Classics Beetle. He wanted to borrow my TV and take it to a friends house, so...I set up a ransom.
