    What Are You Playing

    in Video Game Discussion

    Posted

    I just finished Portal 2 on single player the other day and it is one amazing game. I am looking forward to trying out the multiplayer story soon. I also found and finished portal (from Orange Box) the week before.

    Next up is the full Half-Life series (PS2-PS3). A series I have wanted to play for a long time.

    Also working on some easy Trophy Hunting. Got the Euro SEGA megadrive collection to stack on my Sonic's SEGA Genesis Collection.

    Two new things to report.

    Yesterday, FP put up the Tardis interior set for preorder 39.99 pounds. Not a bad price compared to that of LEGO sets of the same scale.

    Previews has some new underground listings

    SPOT AUG11 1864 DOCTOR WHO CHAR BUILDING DALEK ARMY 5PK (C: 1-1-4) 10/26/11 SRP: $19.99 = $

    SPOT AUG11 1865 DOCTOR WHO CHAR BUILDING CYBERMAN ARMY 5PK (C: 1-1-4) 10/26/11 SRP: $19.99 = $

    The 11 doctor set, Cyberman Conversion Chamber, and Dalek Factory Playset are now on Forbidden Planet.

    Ordered!!!

    *Please note that there are minifig changes from what was first announced at the toyfair*

    I have yet to purchase any of the army builder 5-pack. I can't justify it. I have an Underground Toys case (of minifigs) preordered, I have already received a Character case and I was given a large number of individual packs for my Bday. Purchasing multi-packs of figures that I already own is difficult. I will probably end up asking for the 5-packs around the holidays.

    one more post and I reach 1000 posts. Where does the time go

    Happy Birthday Pickle

    Wow :lol:

    Thanks lady and gents. I really appreciate the Bday wishes.

    I got some more Doctor Who Character Building singles today, but still no Super Rare (for those who follow the Character Building thread).

    I knew there was a reason why I keep coming back to this place :biggrin:

    I worked it out that if some of the secret/chase/rare items are available 1:1000..... & if 500 exist, then some of the figures have been produced in numbers of half a million :ohmy::ohmy: .....maybe my math is wrong or they're lying but that is a f%ckload of merchandise that they are hoping to sell.

    Hmmm, if you math is correct my good sir, I wonder if Underground Toys will just dip their hands in that large pool or if they will manufacture a new batch.

    Does someone here know if Underground Toys has a supply produced/manufactured for them direct from China (or wherever) when they decide to release figures over here or if they simply take leftover warehouse stock from Character and repackage it.

    I am very curious about the North American release of this series. If they do have their own supply made from factories, will the Super Rares be in this series? If they are, will this change the number of Super rares from 500 and 100 of each character to 1000 and 200?

    According to the June Previews:

    PAGE 415

    FI JUN11 1939 DOCTOR WHO CHAR BUILDING TARDIS MINI SET (C: 1-1-4) 09/28/11 SRP: $31.99 = $

    FI JUN11 1940 DOCTOR WHO CHAR BUILDING DALEK PROG ROOM MINI SET (C: 1-1-4) 09/28/11 SRP: $24.99 = $

    FI JUN11 1941 DOCTOR WHO CHAR BUILDING TIME OF ANGELS MINI SET (C: 1-1-4) 10/26/11 SRP: $24.99 = $

    :jawdrop:

    That is a lot for these sets. Looks like I was way off about my comic shop comment.

    Character Building: TARDIS

    Now is this how much this thing actually is or have they inflated the price some because this seems QUITE a lot for such a small set.

    To buy it from the UK puts it at around $15.99 USD before import shipping costs. Not bad if you can order it at your LCS for $19.99. When you compare the price on most Underground Toys Doctor Who figures/boxed sets, they always seem way overpriced for what you get.
