    bidding has not finished on one item on current US eBay & the bidding started at $80 !   Trust me when I say that that particular set came across the Atlantic to the UK from the US ,15 years ago, by the case load (unsold & cheap).  Define rare ??

    To be fair, I purchased a new pack about eight months ago for around $25 *on* eBay. Can’t always believe that eBay price hype!

  2. It’s been a very long time since I’ve posted here. Was always way more active in the Facebook group. I have to say Wave 84 drew me back in after selling off most of my collection last year and I’ve been buying up Spidey and Spidey adjacent mates like it’s no one’s business… though I guess it’s *our* business. Sincerely hoping that this wave is still coming with the original assortment of six. Definitely bringing me back to my childhood and the original first wave, just updated! I’ll be sad to see a character go, but alas, here we are! If I need to make a new social media account to start championing mates, I’ll do it!

    Yes, I hate that tacky feel. It happened to my Ilia Probe for some weird reason and she isn't even clear and her face darkened quite drastically. My clear Invisible Woman did the same as yours, and being my only Sue Richards minimate, it makes me even sadder I missed out on all the FF updates.  (sorry for going so off topic.)

    I've found that the best way to counteract the tacky/sticky feeling is baby wipes. I have cleaned a considerable number of figures recently that way and they are completely good as new.

    This one would have passed me right by, thanks Kastor

    These are in no way complaints... rather suggestions for modifications on these figures when they release. I think it's awesome that we're getting some recreations of the Kenner line, but some are a bit off. I imagine this mostly has to do with DST not wanting to mold pieces for things that will be potentially reused.

    Jungle Demon - Not much wrong here, rather spot on recreation

    Renegade Predator - Not green enough, this figure is a bit too yellow and originally had a blaster and more curved glaive

    Lava Predator - All of the armor should be red, I applaud the chest tampo here though

    Nightstorm Predator - This figure is great, but will need the horns added onto his mask

    Hive Predator - Really well done, albeit his weapon is a bit off

    Overall I am so stoked we're even getting these figures at all. NECA did great recreations of these figures over the years so it's nice to see another company taking a swing at them! I'll just be modding these slightly! Bring on more EU! I need Scarface and the Dark Blade Clan from Concrete Jungle.

    I also hope we eventually get to see some AvP waves.

    No, TRU 24 is completely different.

    No katana.

    Just kidding, what was I thinking... she takes off Kingpin's head with a shotgun ;)

    Zach, I don't know if it's been asked or mentioned, but is this wave getting any TRU exclusive packs?

     

    I also hope Emily Barton comes with a katana :devil:

  7. Surtur is known to be large so it is fucking awesome that his POP figure only slightly resembles their typical design. He will definitely be used for mates for me! Gotta get that mystery mini Fenris too! Love cross line stuff that can work together.

    Brood Wolverine is one of the best Minimates we've ever made. Hands down.

    Say it louder for the people in the back, Zach!

    I'm fairly stoked for a new Old Man Logan figure to drop. This wave has me very excited regardless.

  9. These are out now in case anyone was wondering... continue the hunt! DST really nailed all of the Lost Tribe Predators for this wave. Super impressed.

    L to R

    Back Row: Stalker, Snake, Scout, Guardian (Predator 2)

    Front Row: Hound and Hanzo (Predators)

  10. Any folks out there claiming they still have waves 1 and 1.5 want to hook a brother up? I'm in need of a whole Wave 1.5 (and an extra Coulson pack)! I'm Logan Callahan over on the Facebook groups. Been way more active there than I ever was here.
