@pete: found the revision case at a target, pretty disappointed it wasn't the translucent spidy, but whatever...
Now here's hoping when I check Wally tonight the sentinels are on clearance, and the tru has a ult Thor for me...these avengers toys have officially dropped right? Or if not anyone have a street date?

The Wal-Mart in New Braunfels, Tx is currently taking 50% off the red sticker price at the register. So the three Sentinels they had came out to $12.50ea. I was also able to clear out about 25 Marvel Universe figures at $2ea ($4 minus the 50% off at the register), 4 Guardians of the Galaxy boxsets for $4.50ea. and picked up 9 or so Halo Anniversary figures for $2.50ea. Also, most of our HEBs put their HALO Reach figures on clearance for $2.74ea. Just crazy!
Thinking about buying 6 Sentinels at one of the Wal-marts here in San Antonio at regular price and returning them at the New Braunfels location with the receipt and re-purchase them at the clearance price. Has any here done this before... New Braunfels is at least a 40 min. drive for me...
very jealousright now...thing that stinks is shipping on trading these suckers would be through the roof! Man I hope my wally clearances these soon, I would easily buy two-three more of them...
Dang
Also spotted a new revision wave it contained the following:
Grey Hulk
Red Hulk
Commander rodgers
Union Jack
Flesh Absorb
Iceman
Astonishing wolvie
Magneto
Ronin <------Should have gotten this one I am bored and dont have it!
Regular Iron Spidy
and two others I cant remember right now...

Now there's another mad scientist who is taking up cloning. Me! Mwahahaha!
There are some secret things coming down the pipeline through the OPP store, but this was something I copied for me. It's the squirrel GL from the Imagient OA set I got for my 3yr old for Christmas. Granted it isn't Marvel, or MU, but it gives a taste of what's to come.
That Kilowog is Pretty Bad Ass

Hey guys...Thanks to Jason1551, I am up a few Z-vipers, and thanks to Ross I am up a set of the canadian GI Joe exclusives...anyways, here is the story...I needed to put them somewhere as I usually try and squirrel stuff away either a) because I have no extra time to open them, and b) for a rainy day, when there is nothing worth buying...
Well to compound this situation, I moved recently and had some boxes of either things leftover, when I became a loose collector, or things that I either had no need to open, or things I thought were cool enough to squirrel away! Regardless it is a rainy day where I am at, and thought I would delve into these boxes to see what I had...
Honorable unpictured items: SDCC Sentinel, GI JOE Skystriker
here is what I found, I plan to trade or sell some of this stuff, I will be putting a list together after this, and then some might hit ebay...*EDIT* I am also keeping some of this stuff, opening it and adding it to my collection
Now for those of you that know me, I am not a GLOATER or a Show-Boat, I truly let this stuff build up, and I knew I had some of it, but had forgotten about some of it as well, feast your eyes!

Yeah, that reminds me, I need to check my Tightwad Wal-mart to see if the sentinels are 25$...that would be nice, I would pick up two more! But they seem to never clearance the good stuff!

Did I post to say that I saw some older Spidermen at a LCS...series one (#002), and House of M one from series two (first wave)!!! I passed as they were not worth the 12.49 sticker they carried!

Brian, that Leader head is Tops!

Jason, just went to a comic shop, they had entire wave minus psylocke...they wanted 12.49 a piece... Steep if you ask me, but let me know if you might need one at that price...

I took the kids to TRU last night to spend my extra coupons and finding nothing for myself i decided to ask if they had got any Marvel legends, and the worker was very cool and looked up the figures online and checked in the back and it said they had 8, as he brought out a full box of legends in walks my local collector buddy, and was like what are you getting and I was like they are bringing me out a box of Marvel legends...he was like what!!! So all I wanted was hope and so did olslick..I could tell and I said here you go, I was going to get it for trade bait..... I felt good about myself.
oh snap! that reminds me I have to go to TRU to spend my amazing reward coupon before it expires. Thanks for the 5 bucks TRU... asshats... like they will even have anything I want
Yeah, I had to tell a TRU employee today why there was nothing to buy! He acted like he was interested, and he said he would "say something" but I knew he really just wanted me to shutup...ha ha
TRU rewards are pretty piss poor...

whats up fellow collectors, i just recently found this sight and i am thrilled to have found what so far looks like my people. i look forward to chatting and making some connections on here. I live in florida and it is damn dry here right now, no stores are restocking but as things change we tend to get series long after the rest of the country has run dry so i might be able to help get things that yallmight have missed. anyway look forward to interacting with yall.
Welcome Aboard!

^^^ Sorry but my camera sucks, I got the Blackbeard who I think will be a perfect head for Graviton at Target for 2.50$...
^^^If nothing else, at least I got some sweet gear for nightcrawler out of the blackbeard!!!

Onxy, I am thinking about tackling a new project. I am thinking about attempting a GRAVITON sans AEMH...Here is the parts list, I am thinking about...if any of you have any better ideas let me know.
Body: Thinking maybe piledriver or something similar...
Feet: Taskmasters white boots
Cape: Moon knight
Head: Blackbeard from POTC
add some paint...
What do you guys think?
Sounds awesome!
Yeah, I wont have time to paint it up today or anything, but I am gonna part bash it right now, and take a pic to gauge how well the Taskmaster Body works on him...But I am gonna need to trade for it all, I am not willing to get rid of either taskmaster, or my moon knight to have it, so I will most likely try and trade for the items I still need, matter of fact heading to my BST right now!

Finally found a Walmart gift set on clearance for 14.90, I have been searching for this, since they are the only ones that sold out...I think someone returned it, and I got lucky. Not worth $30, but at 14.90 I thought it was okay...and I havnt seen anything new in forever...
I also spotted more of the DD/BE packs...
