had a great day after a very long dry spell. got my thanos and yellowjacket from HTS (they arrived in perfect condition, so for all those who tried to scare me with horror stories, they came through great! Have yet to have a bad experience with HTS). Also recieved my Dark DD from fellow member EradicatorRage. Great Fig and awesome trader. Highly recommend him. Thanks again Logan, be talking to you soon! Off topic, but I also scored three of the figs from wave two of the green lantern classics - before BBTS even got them in stock (my preorder is still unfulfilled), I find them at retail!!!! what gives? Anyways, really happy with my scores today. Its about time....

And you're a Marvel fan? ;) Almost as bad as this Jim Lee guy everyone talks about......

Ugh. People who do swap-outs are seriously the scum of the hobby. That is seriously bad. I don't get the people who do this for a $10 figure. I mean really. If you can't afford to buy an $8-$10 figure, you shouldn't be in this hobby. If you're doing it for sport, then you're simply a tool.... wish I knew who Trevor Fitzroy was......

Weird. all the targets in my area got one case of thor figs, and no deluxe figs. right now all those I visit have 9 figs from the 12 fig case. I'll let you figure out which ones are left I got my Odin, Loki, and Frost Giant, but don't know if I'll keep them. I'm more into the comic figs, not the movie figs. I'll wait till the movie comes out tho. Might feel different after the movie. def need that destroyer tho....

Check the have in my sig line and let me know if you need any of them

Picked up Loki and Frost Giant at Target today. Strangely, at the first Target, they would only allow one fig per customer because they only had one case of figs. I took the frost giant and went on my way. The next Target also had only one case on the pegs, so I took the Loki (had no idea if they were implementing the same limits there b/c I didn't need anything else). Kinda weird. Also went to the Disney Store which a few weeks back had the full WWH wave. They were pretty well cleaned out, the store manager said some guy came in last week and bought 8 or 10 figs. Constrictor was there, so I think I missed Thanos.....crud. If you're on these boards, let me know, maybe we can help each other out. Check out my have, needs in my sig

Ahh, the ever present musical pricing......

Picked up an Odin and comic Iron Monger today, best I've seen in a month. They are up for trade as well as black widow, ghost rider, union jack and some others. I'm looking for Dark DareDevil, Moonstone or Dark Ms. Marvel, Thanos, and yellowjacket. PM me if interested.

Kind of shocked that nobody needs this. I would also trade it for certain other, older MU figures that I don't have (and can no longer get at retail.) If you're interested, and need the Dark one...shoot me a pm. PM sent...

btw, the closest tru has 18 figs. 14 are short haired buckys. the remainder are im of one sort or another. Nothing has moved in weeks. How does that happen?

I've been checking the local targets (6 of them) every 2-3 days for the last 3 weeks. all are low on inventory (most have four pegs and about 8-12 figs), but two have had 4 and two figs respectively for the entire time. I don't get it. how do you not order new figures in when the inventories are that low? I'm going to buy the remaining figs from those two stores and return them elswhere just to see if they order some in. I don't know anything about managing retail, but I do know you can't sell it if you don't have it. Sheez.

I'll send u a pm. I need thanos, and am losing hope in my area? What are you looking for?

Why oh why would you take the red pill????

I think you mistyped. The BIN for that lot is not $7.99. I think he meant $7.99/fig. 7.99 x 20 = 159.80

Perfect. Only word I can use to describe it. Onyx, did you do the paint apps too? You've def mastered the art - thanks for sharing the final product. Wish someone made these mass production, I'd buy three or four....

Onyx, that thing is going to be awesome. You sure have the eye for repurposing parts from other figs.

I collect both, but prefer 6". How about you fellas?

Looks like a board meeting (see the spreadsheet) LOL! Big G is the C.E.O., Sentinel is the C.O.O., Goliath & Skrully are the requesite yes men, and Silver Surfer is the mail boy..... I'm guessing the cleaning staff is scrupulously honest, or you lock your office at night...

I'm not a customizer, but I swear it doesn't seem like it would be too hard to take TM & HBIM's helmet and do a pretty great Whirlwind. The green looks to be perfect. Little bondo, little paint, and voila, sweet WW fig.

dead'rn Uncle Ben......

Hats off to Mikec123 and eldest son. I agree completey. I had the same issue at my tru, and could've pulled the same stunt. Instead I told the girl at customer svc. about the shelving issue. Now it's fixed, and the 2-paks are $34.95, lol. Maybe they're trying to recoup some lost revenues from those figs sold at $19.95.....

scored all of wave 12 yesterday at the local target. Got 2 wwh, 2 b.e.i.m., spidey 2099, doc, marvel, and spiderwoman. Keeping both hulks and im's, but don't really want the others. Will either trade them or return them. if anyone's interested, pm me. I'm looking for yellowjacket, thanos, classic havok, norman ip.

found them all, except the deadpool/warpath regular. only variants so far, and I don't want them. Hopefully they'll get more stock soon.

Link?

Found Dark Hawkeye and Constrictor at Target today - only one of each. No Thanos or Yellowjacket. Picked them up for $6.99, which was nice.
