  1. Hey Mods...here is my vote for creepiest post of the day. Beware of all the other things that may also be going over your head today...... .....& perhaps tomorrow .....& the future
  2. I perhaps don't agree with Minifiend's post but I do sympathise with his comments. This is a forum & if the guy wants to vent his feelings then he is, surely, at liberty to do so .
  3. Does anybody here know if SDCC passes are transferable ? There are numerous 4-day passes on ebay which say that they are transferable but can anybody confirm this?
  4. I'm sorry guys but I have to be the first to publish the first picture of the new Doctor .....
  5. I nicked this picture from an ebay ad recently ........ 2008 Superhero Tread-water Marathon?
  6. These are ,if I remember rightly, are known as Starbricks(?) I don't feel that they can be classed as KOs but they aren't Medicom Kubricks...just articulated figures. I have explained elsewhere ,but you'll forgive me for repeating myself (age!) ,that Kubrick ,in Asia ,has become a generic term for any small action figure.
  7. I have collected my entire Minimate collecton on-line . Without US ebay in particular it would have been impossible. Minimates are 'apparently' no longer retailed in Europe, although Forbidden Planet still advertise them, so it is unlikely that you'll find them in shops. I have mentioned 'Limited edition' before,I believe. Regarding your brother's experience ,I sympathise but it's unusual if the seller had reasonable feedback. I buy something off of ebay ever day & have only had a couple of bad deals, maybe I'm lucky? Hulk & Iron-Man? I know you probably mean that you want those particular versions but forthcoming waves will be awash with these characters. Try also the Have/Want threads here ,I can't believe there's not one or either on offer. Also check the For Sale thread but under no circumstances look at my post there because my prices are extortionate It's never been easy collecting Minimates esp. in GB but this place here is your best shot.
  8. The outer cases of Wave 14 imply that 727 cases were produced.
  9. It was 'yours truly' that called Tate a 'munter' & perhaps I should take credit(?) for the 'awareness alert' to the 'agenda'. Tate was superb in this series ,I have championed her throughout & the refreshing 'relationship' she had with the Doctor was far more intense than the Rose/Martha cliche shite. The series finale was ,alas, never going to equal the hype but was superb. I was not quite on the 'edge of my seat' but it had everything...all the emotions,wonderful. Tennant..... quit while your ahead? How very neuvo-British....how very Tony Blair! Tennant is not perfect but will go far ....why not be remembered as the best Dr.Who...ever? He could do a lot worse & he's far too clever an actor to be typecast. Sarah Jane I'm afraid is far too old for me but I would like to mention Kylie .....
  10. Karamazov80 ,for God's stop wingeing about that bloody C3PO...it's not as if it's a Minimate,you know ......something important
  11. Good shit in life? well I'm still breathing should I ask for more? T. The answer to the first question is Guinness .
  12. I(we) know very little about the proposed Dr.Who Minimates though your conjecture is welcome. Cybermen are obviously some of your favourite characters. They lean heavily on the BSG Modern Cylon character already produced,so it is possible that an early 'army' builder might happen. Chase figures in each Minimate Wave are packed with a (more)common figure.
  13. 'Not all that excited about Minimates' Well .....welcome !
  14. Wow! I can't believe you found a Stormtrooper. I was thinking about getting a second one, but they were gone forever shortly after they came out around here... Indy looks pretty damn cool too! I actually found the stormtrooper at a local comic convention. I paid $15 for it which wasnt bad seeing as how they go for $35-45 on ebay. Does anybody happen to know how many "variants" there are for the Star Wars line? I've heard of the Darth Vader "Double Pupil", Stormtrooper w/ Dark Grey shadowing, and a "bronze" C3PO. Seeing as I have enough bloody collections check this out before I leap into another. Please help me beat this thing http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Wars-Mighty-Muggs...p3286.m14.l1318
  15. Wii Drink Session arrived yesterday: Well,after day one,I can easily say that this is more for people looking to get pissed ,than those looking for more interactive games like darts,dominoes & cribbage. The Sessions has games that involve the bar,such as drinking,more drinking, swearing at the landlord which is similar to tightrope walking,farting & even the hiccups after six pints. However the main focus is on becoming completely outofit through alcohol strength-testing , lager & the eventual balance/posture exercises as you leave the virtual pub. It is,in my opinion,a very nice item for in home ,personal blowouts. It is easy. I have never done Budweiser, but luckily, a lot of the same ingredients are used in Stella Artois,which I have drunk for years. It will be a while before I am scoring with the barmaid , I'm no amateur but I get which isn't fun I'm sorry Shanester....in advance
  16. What 'Jules' posted was a canny synopsis of the recent Dr.Who/Torchwood series. I personally like the Donna character & the current Dr. is perhaps the best. It is easy to rate the 'current' anything as the best but perhaps I have, for once, a 'special' vantage point. I watched the very first episode of Dr.Who when it aired in 1963 & have seen some wonderful episodes & some total crap during the next 45 years. Regarding the re-vamped Dr.Who ,I dislike the 'agenda' ,I cringe at some of the acting of a few of the supporting cast(usually those wearing UNIT uniforms) , I shudder at how far Rose's front teeth continue to 'grow' & that's it .....apart from those minor criticisms Dr.Who is the only show that could even compete with US Sci-Fi. This IS the golden-age of Dr.Who without a shadow of a doubt . Oh yeah we had Kylie as well ,I like Kylie a lot ,an awful lot,very much,totally .....
  17. There was a thread here once about 'Do you carry a 'Mate with you?' ......Hannibal is now that 'Mate, absolutely brilliant. I look forward to taking him up the pub,sharing the statutory bottle of chianti & chewing the fat
  18. I've just seen the pictures of Wave 5 & I just can't think of something positive to say. The 'stock-photo' packaging is lame & wouldn't attract a wasp if it were smeared in honey,f**king dreadful.Since when did Minimates packaging have pictures of anything other than Minimate caricatures ? The figures themselves ? Words for once fail me.
  19. Could you show us your source? I've heard nothing about this sequel. This is dated almost a year ago! http://www.firstshowing.net/2007/06/08/i-r...lready-written/
  20. As we're talking Aliens & Kubricks, strangely enough I snagged this today ....why? Actually in the UK we have a TV show 'Little Britain'....Bubbles De Vere anyone. This is a genuine Bearbrick.....WTF are these Japanese on?
  21. I do hope they are sold over here in the US, but if I have to buy them from a UK online store to get 'em, so be it! Unfortunately for us in UK it is likely that we will have to buy them from the US .
