The New Figs you bought thread....

[FEAR THE BAT]

Ouch. That sucks.

 

[Saint553]

Though I'm like 50% done with my Luke Cage custom.

FTB, can I send you my FO Daredevil/variant daredevil/mandarin for some part swapping??

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Sure thing. Just LMK what needs to go were and consider it done.

 

[Saint553]

Well, I need the neck peg put back into the shoulders. I want to try switching the arms from the bicep/tricepdown. maybe the legs. And of course the head.

 

[Saint553]

And I think I want my Captain marvel's forearms switched out.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

OK. Just toss the figs that need to be part-swapped in a ziplock or bag of sorts and toss me a little description of what you want done since I may very well forget good sir.

 

[Saint553]

Any suggestions for who's forearms should be switched out?

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

And I think I want my Captain marvel's forearms switched out.

Just LMk what needs to be done and I'll happily comply.

i like how WM and TRU (especially TRU) are pumping out figs like crazy for x-mas. but I really hate x-mas traffic and especially standing in those long*** lines.

 

[Saint553]

I just dunno who will be donating the forearms.

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

also, they opened up 5 cases of ML15 at my TRU in front of me and no variants. What a suprise. Someone on the inside no less.

Maybe it's just your area. But things have been fine around here, and I'm in and outside of chicago stores all the time.

i live near a place called Macandenville, ok i know i spelled that wrong. But it's either considered the Christmas town of NC or of the US. I'm not sure. I'm sure there are others that claim that as well. But anyway, people come from miles to see the Macandenville lights which causes heaps of traffic after 5. I do ok with my WM shopping b/c I go early. TRU, people are there constantly around this time of year. Actually the one I go to is less crowded than the one I went to about an hour away the other day. I could barely find a parking place at a freaking TRU. that never happens.

This is why in 2 months I'm going to be real glad I'm done with the collecting game.

On Black Friday the TRU I went to (and found all me wrasslers at) was packed to the gills, I'm talking the parking lot was damn near full (atleast 40-50 cars). Anyway, me and the wifey head to seperate sections to check for stuff, we meet at the line maybe 15 minutes later and were out 10 minutes after that while in a line that had 20 people ahead of us. Thing was they had every register open. In and out in a flash. I couldn't believe how fast I got in and out of stores on Black Friday. It was a piece of cake.

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

i went to TRU last black friday in 05 and it was crazy. I was there trying to get stuff for my neices for my sister. And we were wrapped around the whole store . It took about and hour or longer to get through the line. God that sucked.

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

i have something coming in from cornerstorecomics and i don't even know what it is. i ordered some of the variants, the ones that weren't sold out and the hasbro wave 1.

 

[Saint553]

Hmmm...wait, I just realized that I'll have all of the core members of the New Avengers in like...no time at all. This is kinda cool. And Luke cage looks damn fine. FTB, do this:

Frankenstein Legs and upper torso/shoulders.
Alpha male head and arms.
Paint upper torso black for a t-shirt, and some on arms for the sleeves. Bam! Instant Luke Cage.

This is why I don't like CSC. They tell you they're shipping, but not what they're shipping. I think what they're shipping is far more important.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

I'm out on the Avengers bro. All I care for is my IMs and Captain America.

 

[Saint553]

Not even X-men for your sentys?

 

[Saint553]

Huh. That sucks. Now I'm debating my Jigsaw variant FO. It's not as impressive as I once thought.

 

[Kable24]

You and me both. Bumblebee is great though, I love the fact that he has the face rather than the half-masked look. And who cares if he's not a VW, he looks better this way IMO.

I just picked up the Jetfire yesterday. He is AWESOME!! I love it, he pretty big. Maybe a shade bigger than Optimus (how he's supposed to be anyway) and he's wider. Adds some brawn to the bunch. Now I'm on the hunt for the Grimlock and Mirage. May pick up Astrotrain. He's the only one I don't have that I can get so eh, I'm caving in.

Either way it goes I love these new TFs.

I will definitely be getting the Grimlock and Mirage figs when they come out here. I looking forward to finding Skywarp and Thundercracker too.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

You will all see soon in my HAVES thread.

I guess I'll find out. I know for a fact I didn't order a moonknight. but i know i ordered a red wasp, which i got today from a friend. I forgot i even ordered any from cornerstore. I probably did it late at night once i found out that they were available. Well here's to hoping I go to order destroyer, though I think he was sold out before i got to him.
