Every Target (and Walmart...and Toys'R'Us) I've been to in the past four or five days are still bare and torn apart from Christmas, and they all seem to be clearancing a bunch of crap (emphasis on crap), and setting up new planograms - though, nothing's hardly on the shelves anymore. Plus, all I ever found was the Wolvie and Iceman packs. The new, sharper Iceman is cool, but I would like the Blue Suit Professor X, and I need two pairs of Nightcrawler hands for a very old, very unfinished custom... (Not to mention, I'm still lacking the 12 & 13 variants...)

I gotta stop sending my thoughts to people on this board... they end up doing my customs before I can!

I read on a Transformers Message Board, that TRU was cancelling people's pre-orders. That would suck if it wasn't coming out in the States. I just bought one of those off eBay for $70 shipped. If anyone wants, I'll post pics when (if*) I get it. *I got ripped off $9 for a Family Guy figure that I never received, and the guy disappeared from eBay and PayPal. I tried opening a dispute with PP, but if he got rid of his e-mail address, I don't know what they'll do about it. Some people need a giant robot that also turns into a semi-truck cab to step on them.

Try collecting only X-Men MLs, and having everyone but him. Anyone wanna sell him? I tried collecting them all, but it got too expensive. X-Men's what I cares abouts most, so's X-Mens what I gets. It also really ticks me off (because it hurts my wallet) when the BAF is an X-Men character (like the last three were). Anyone want Baron Zemo, Abomination, Maestro, Falcon, and Power Man? I'm glad the first Hasbro BAF isn't an XMC. Too bad the second one is. I dread to hear of the third...

You mentioned an Optimus Prime custom, that even (sorta) transforms? Where? Lessee!!

My last name "Ten*****" mixed with "Anime". My production company is called TENIME Art Studios. My avatar is a Minimate me!!

Amazing!! I love Astonishing Beast's mane and Kitty's hair!! The phasing ponytail is genius!!! And Lockheed looks incredible!!! Your skills have come a long way from your first custom (Two-Face)!!

I'm still in need of Black Elektra, Days of Future Past Wolverine and Raft Sentry. Who knows how much it'll cost me to get those three. I love the notion of zero chases for the DC line...

Still no variants for either series...

Any Illinois-ers see these yet? Antacost, I'm looking at you, neighbor...

Still hate Quesada's/"Stark's" costume, but that custom is Amazing!! *rim shot* Let's hear the groans. Everyone saw that joke coming...

That Wolvie hairpiece still bothers me... Good job, otherwise!

Please PM them to me!!

Bronchitis and ear infections suck. Especially at the same time.

The paint match won't be easy (for some of us), but I came up with a good fix for the Series 13 Astonishing X-Men "cat-head" Beast. That Wolverine hair just doesn't work. So, when Series 14 comes out, give "CH" Beast "Kelsey Grammar" Beast's hairpiece. It looks pretty darn close to a mane. Just need to color match it. Thought I'd share the idear. (And, yes, I said "idear")

Chicagoland, only Astonishing X-Men. (Still looking for that DOFP Wolvie Variant, though...)

First all white pieces with the colors painted on (am I the only customizer who misses the pieces being different base colors?), and now faulty plastic? What's goin' on here, guys?

Thanks, Cale. Reideen, I never got any blanks from you. These were from CloneMe, who did get something in return, and PM responses from me. Sorry, been sick and busy. I work at Tower Records, and every store is closing. Including mine. Need to find a new job. And, I've got a wicked case of the flu.

I needs me a Blanka & Felicia... C'mon, Danny!! Mini-Cat-Breasts!!

Dude. Very nice. Scarecrow kicks @$$!!!

They are.

I entered the comic cover recreation contest too early, and didn't win (probably not because of that, but still...). I'm nervous about posting this after only two entries, but it just didn't take very long (though, a heckuva lot longer than I had previously thought). Mustafar Shock Trooper He's actually pure white, but I photographed it with a yellowish, reddish light, because I knew I was going to add the Mustafar background, so he actually looks like he's lit by the lava. And, yes, as with the 501st Clone Trooper, the ridge on the top of his helmet is real, despite it looking Photoshopped. Here's the reference(s): Basement24's design: Timbo provided me with the regular EpIII Clone Trooper image for the decals, and I edited it per B24's Shock Trooper design. Begun, the Clone Army has.

Army Trail in Bloomingdale. I get an additional 10% off the discount price. They took away our discounts! Like we're working there for the @$!#*&^%-ing $7.50 an hour...

Jon Favreau told Wizard he wanted an unknown... Stupid Hollywood...

So far at my Tower, only 10% off on toys. We've got tons of Skrulls, a few Professor X's & AFX Iron Mans (yes, "mans" not "men"), and almost all of series 10 & 11. The discounts will go up over the next 8-10 weeks. But, since I'm out of a job, I'll need any interested parties to pay me before I get their 'mates... @$!#*&^%-ing Tower CEOs... @$!#*&^%-ing Great American Liquidators...
