  1. It seems to me the two cases of W15, the endcap and the $6.99 sale price at Target were all supposed to coincide with each other.

     

    Now at my store, the W15 figures are long gone and the end cap has a row of pegs 5 wide with a single pre-W15 on each peg. It looks ridiculous.

     

    (Am I the only one who likes to piss off Target workers by consolidating figures onto as few pegs as necessary? ...and push the rubber stoppers to the back of the peg?)

     

     

    I do this too! Ha ha, its soo hilarious when they have four pegs with all eight figures on one peg! Its great!

  2. I missed getting Vision by minutes, 2 vendors said they sold one for $40 and no others had the figure at the con. post-35915-1318638528_thumb.jpg

     

     

    dont be fooled...they (vendors) always say they had REALLY hard to find stuff that they clearly undersold...

     

    I was looking for a ML Red Skull last year at C2E2, and of course the Legends vendors told me they had it "earlier" and sold it for way less than they should have...

     

    No MU vendor ANYWHERE would sell a Reg. Vision for 40$ at this point...if they do they are the worst "dealer" there ever was...

  3. landed another two X 23's strictly for trade bait will also due a whole wave 15 for a Black Panther MOC

    getting CRAZY for one

     

     

    If you really are willing to trade an entire wave 15 (worth $45) for a Black Panther MOC, you might as well just return them, get your money back and go to eBay and get a MOC Black Panther for $25 shipped.

    My friend I don't have a ebay account if you help me get this Black Panther

    I'll send you a ML ultimate.Capt MOC help me and I'll help you

     

    hey dude, before you get all crazy with this panther...know this...for one it SUCKS...its the 1st version, and has limited articulation. Two...youd give that all up for it? Just wait till the new one comes out in the TRU avenger bases line to see how good (or bad) its gonna be...it could blow us away...you never know...

  4. Great work on the DOFP Wolvie. Looks good, even for an experienced customizer.

    Appreciate it, other than the collar being unfinished I thought it turned out swimmingly...I wish I had the background from the select figure to put it against.

     

    I am gonna try and take pics against some sentinels...

  5. i think the best option is to get the whole connector pole out, extend it and then cast it so it's all one piece. and for just x-actoing the helmet to make the top of his hair, that's a damn fine job.

     

    also, shortysben, that days of future past logan is top notch, great usage of parts and paint. just gotta paint the trim and collar that yellowy tan color.

     

    Yeah I know, I am gonna get some Greenstuff soon to make an addition of the Fur Colar and Jacket Edges...

     

     

    Thanks, Its been way too long that I planned on doing some customs of my own, and I figured this would be an easy way to get my foot in the door...

     

    It all seemed really easy, thanks to onyx advice, and tips. The hardest part was boiling and popping the joe calves on a XMO Thigh...

  6. okay everyone...please be gentle. This is my first custom, and although I want to do more to it, I am posting to see what everyone else thinks. Thanks to ONYX for the 30 min chat the other day with tips and tricks. I hope you guys like it. It took me about 3 hours to do.

     

    I present to you my DAYS OF FUTURES PAST LOGAN

     

    Parts list:

     

    Head from Maskless Wolvie (XMO)

  7. Hey everyone...I am working on my first custom ever...I am in dire need of this figure...if anyone can help out, I would be very greatful. I would buy it from someone or trade for it. Here is the figure that has been eluding me...

     

    http://marvelousnews.com/database/gv.php?m...600&start=0

     

    Its a Wolverine from the XMO line...he doesnt have to be complete...please help!

    D'oh! I have that figure, but the neck peg broke off. I stuck a pin in the neck and head to hold them in place, but the rest of him is in good shape.

     

    Dang...you are the only person here who has this figure? he is the worst...ha ha ha, I need his torso, legs and neck peg really...so that wont help. But I appreciate you seeing this and responding...I am having trouble tracking this figure down...

     

    I've got two of them. I'll trade one to you no problem. PM me for details...

     

     

     

    Rhinoman! you are a lifesaver...pm incoming!

  9. So had to go to a lil kids party at peter piper pizza.. after that stoped at the target next to it to pick up som mouth wash and gel and stoped at the toy section and they had the cap brit spidey two pack. First time seeing it.. even tho i have the new packs on order from hasbro i jus had to get it.. also saw for the first time 6inch lizard from the spiderman legends line.. had to get it.. looks pretty cool..

     

    yeah yeah yeah, I have to rationalize it everytime I go into a store for "mouth wash" too...I usually just B-line for the toy section...
