Velvet- that is from the most recent incarnation of Excalibur.

I gotta admit, ever since I saw those newish episodes of the Fantastic Four, from 2006, I've been wanting a Paste Pot Pete. Admittedly I wouldn't be so happy to get a redo of the Fantastic Four, I think we have plenty of other choices for minimates, but I do think the only way we would get more villains from their rouges gallery is by having them redone.

GH do you know what days you might be going? My wife and I are mostly likely going at least Friday and Saturday. Maybe we could meet up.

Super Bowl players only suit up but do not play is what I have heard. Also, I am happy to see these to teams going at it, but I hope for the Saints sake that tonight (which was the only Saints game I watched this season) was a rare case of forgetting what defense is.

I wondered if you won that. Are they 100% blank flesh pieces for the middle ones, or have they had the paint app removed?

Hope you had a good one!

Yeah two interceptions is never a good showing. Amazing how lucky he got on both of them. Here's to a LA QB v. an IN QB in both ways.

The original images of her made the skirt look more like she had a big arse and crotch piece because there is no definition on the skirt. Once the figure is posed and not just standing it is more noticeably a skirt. Scareglow is an amazing figure especially his reliquary. Merman absolutely surprised me in his awesomeness. I was never a fan of 'Space' He-man but Optikk looks amazing.

GH you must have logged on just as they sold out. The 27 minute mark is when reports came in that she had sold out. Being that my wife and I are collecting the whole set I was there when they went on sale and it still took 10 minutes to get a connection that didn't crash. TTF I am positive Adora will be reissued. FYI Man at Arms is also being reissued next month. Why do you say resist? Give in these are some of the finest figures to ever be produced and everyone should get them ALL.

It is a double edged sword. If you do not put out the characters fans want they complain "Why did they put 'meat head Peter' in this wave and not 'goo covered Peter'?" If they get all the characters the fans want then the line dies.

Is it just me or do the brothers look like they might have a bit of glitter in them?

I was able to score a JLU Thanagar Attacks set today. I didn't even know it was out, but got it on clearance for $7.49 (sadly it was the only JLU thing Target had). I also picked up the last of the GI Joe ROC Combat Heroes I needed and some B&B Action League figures. For the later, my thanks go to vpbanizzi for getting me hooked.

:biggrin:

I had to send them to you because I have wanted to buy them for so long, but I do not need another toy line to collect so this way I got the best of both. Which ones did you pick up?

My biggest fear is that they will make the character of Hal Jordan have qualities of Kyle Raynor. Reynolds is a great actor, check out his more dramatic stuff like 'Definitely, Maybe' and 'The Nines'. I do not think Reynolds is Hal, he could be Kyle, but not Hal. To me Hal is a Cocksure kind of guy, he is a test pilot for the love of god. Not one person who is willing to get in an airplane that could explode is not an adrenaline junky or suicidal if not both. Maybe Jeremy Renner from 'The Hurt Locker' could be a perfect Hal. But no matter what I do not see a little waif of a girl being Carol Ferris. To me Carol is just as cocky as Hal because she has to run "a man's" business.

BTW I am not saying I believe it is a man's business I am just saying what the typical perception is, no crucifixions please.

Only 36 more weeks before the Bengals can start disappointing me again.

I have spent hours already thinking of ways that would cause the evolutions of the flora and fauna. Mentally explaining all of the seemingly impossible sights.

Me, too! I can imagine a lot of those creatures and plants and although it looked very impressive and very extraordinary and excotic, I see no "evolutionary use" for the split/double forelegs.

That is one of the few I couldn't completely come up with a good reasoning or advantage of. The only reasoning I could think of was a defensive evolution to give them stability in a fight and/or a better ability to climb.

You did that just to show how amazing you are and how humble we should be. I do not appreciate that kind of phenomenal brilliance and am totally offended that you shared your greatness with us.

I know I am a late comer, but I have to say I loved it. I saw it today in Imax 3D and it was worth every penny. I agree it is a standard story, but I didn't watch it for the story. I watched for the visual eye orgasms. I was breathless with many of the visuals. Halfway through the film I actually turned to my wife and told her I wanted to see it again. I felt like a kid watching a magic show. I was totally amazed with the whole thing. This movie completely captured my imagination. I have spent hours already thinking of ways that would cause the evolutions of the flora and fauna. Mentally explaining all of the seemingly impossible sights. I rarely fall into a movie but this one...yeah I will stop. If you haven't seen it. Just watch the pretty pictures and allow yourself to fly on a Banshee.

Awesome fixed but still don't have a clue for one of them.

are we allowed to amend our guesses or is it once it is posted it is over?

vbpanizzi once declared here that he wanted 100 DPs

Sadly I have stagnated at 15. I started feeling guilty for buying them. :nopity:

Back to the point of this thread.

The postal carrier just dropped off my instant collection of Masters of the Universe Classics.

I got 10 figures and am now only missing 3 released characters.

If you liked MotU as a kid these guys are phenomenal and should be picked up. They are sculpted by the Four Horsemen and typically come with around 3 to 5 accessories.

Punk was dead well before Hot Topic came about, but you can blame them for the mass emergence of Emo and Mall Punk.

I am guessing they will have what is written on BBTS's page verbatim with just the same image. They (BBTS) are not known for their flowery descriptions.
