Can anyone help me brainstorm up a good Jonah Hex head? For those that aren't familier with him, he has horrible burns on the right side of his head. Kinda like two face from the Dark Knight movie, but on the opposite side. Any ideas? So far all i've come up with is the Lt. from the upcoming Platooon pack, but i don't think he'll have enough eye-bulging goodness to make due. I'll eventually have to paint one I suppose, but that is a dishearting prospect at best as my face painting skills are underdeveloped to say the least.

A new license that would probably be dirt cheap to obtain would be Captain Planet. That'd be a pretty perfect six pack. (Earth, Wind, Water, Fire, Heart and Captain)

bearbricks for me. It's funny how we get stuck on minifigures.

I'm reading Secret Invasion, as much as i can afford to. Moving put a crimp on the old 30 dollar a week habit. ha, I used to look forward to wendsdays.... I read issue one of Final Crisis, and thought it was Just my two cents. Maybe the story will even out over ALL of those tie ins, but Secret Invasion is decent... MI-13 took a turn for the worse with issue two, I thought.

Have fun everyone! Is anyone going all of the days? Had the pass last year but only went for a couple... that's five days next to a lotta people.

SAVE THE STICKERS!!! Eavh sticker from the relic goes on the order form for a mail-away figure. You only need six, plus six bucks for a "Crystal skeleton figure with throne." I only need one more at the moment, as these puppies fit well with my star wars figures

I read them both. Guess it's for sure that is a skrull.

If anyone needs any helps with missions I'm at 25% done, and living in Bohan.

Try the Vampire Earth series by E.E. Kight, loads of good post-apoctaliptic vampire goodness. My wife just finished her SECOND star trek book over the weekend. Big, big changes, as she used to hate reading. Another convert to our side! Only took seven years.... WWZ was definetly worth the "hype" it's an altogether great read. It's nice that it's a bunch of collected survior stories, as it breaks up the novel into great little sections. Loaned my copy out, or i'd read it again.

it did, for a couple of panels in the What If? Civil War issue. It looks dead on to the cover though.

Stealth Iron Man Two pack mib 14.95 at the swap meet. One last good find before moving.

Those new high tech micro pore sponges (like Mr. Clean brand) work very well for cleaning the ultra dirty figures.

*warning* talking about a PC game *warning* Anyone play Empire at war? if so please pm me!!

They're getting more and more professional looking. KE Batman, is he wearing the new CW Iron Man gloves? And if it isn't too much of a trade secret, what did you use for the cape details on him?

Nah..tim's good people. Unless he is the underlying reason the job market sucks, in which case.....

hey- About to join your neighborhood! After an extended stay in San Diego the wife and I are moving on to better things. So any fellow collectors out there in the Bay Area?

DSS mates.....they're ok in my opnion. I'll get them for the girl faces and hair, as well as that neat dollar jacket.

welcome! I think Toyfaire had an article on battle beasts within the last few months...could be wrong though.

if it is not too late, I'd love the Civil War set.

what the heck, here's my take on spymaster: I both know and like spymaster. Shocking i know! He's a pretty cool villian, that set into motion one of the better "mini series" in Iron Man comics. After stealing stark tech designs, the ol' spy master sells the specs to the highest bidder, thus forcing tony to "take back" his ideas by force. With both fighting and corperate intrigue, spymaster fits my definition of a IM villian. Kinda like a batman ememy: you have to take down bruce wayne AND batman to really defeat him. that being said, will her ever get his own series? Probably not, but come on! The mini comes with TWO holsters. Can anyone complain about that?

the 30th aniversary figures (3.75 inch) version of the storm trooprs come with removable helmets, that are of a much more piliable plastic than the lego helmets. Also they fit on standard minimates head with no fuss at all. PLUS they are extremly easy to find at walmarts/targets etc.

I couldn't possably get more on board with this idea. Saved by the bell minimates would be the bee's knees. I can think of 15 differeent varients that could be used. here's some ideas for the series'. We're going to ignore the "Good morning Miss Bliss" episodes. Slater+Jessie Two pack Zack and Kelly Screech and lisa. Mr. Belding+ Max Varient for these two packs would include: Slater and Tori and Screech and Kevin (his robot) OR Jessie and Eric? Graham (her step brother from new york) Some great box sets could be the Zack Attack (band) set, uin their cool b&w costumes the ROTC box set, with the cast in their sweats and t-shirts from that episode

Cleaning out the garage, I stumbled upon the following old obesssions. Heroscape, the pirates buildable ship game, the star wars bulidable ship game. Anyone still play these gems?

sweet!!! it's been awhile since we've had an MMMV contest

It looks good, except for the sunglasses. Not much in the way of eye pieces for minimates. A little putty where the nose bridge is would go a long way into making the glasses look like Snake eye's visor. Other than that, it's pretty dead on. *edit* why not try a cyclops visor, painted black?
