  1. So I went to go place an order for one of the Dark Reign sets and they are now $19.99!!!! What gives?!

    Anyone happen to have any extras for cheap?

    Aw, d@mn*t!!! I needed an extra Daken left arm, so I could remove the brown costume but keep the tattoo...sunuvab****!!!

    PM me, I can help you guys out. ;)

  2. Keep your eyes on Amazon, they regularly sell the 1-year memberships well below retail, I think it was on sale for $35 a few weeks ago, but looks like it is $40 now.

    I can look through my games and see if I still have any free 1-month Gold trials when I get home from work.

  3. I just got my 100% completion on Red Dead last night! :lol:

    What an awesome game, glitches included.

    Do we have a MMMV multiplayer posse yet? If not, we should start one up.

    What systems are you guys playing on? I'm on XBox 360.

  4. Okay, continuity hounds, correct me if I'm wrong, but that's not the costume Cable wore in X-Force, is it? The one we just got in wave 31 was the X-Force costume; this appears to be the one he wore in the last few issues of The New Mutants, right?

    Yup, technically a New Mutants box set as all of these characters first appeared in the tail end of that series.

    Cable - NM #87

    Deadpool/Domino (as Copycat impersonating her)- NM #98

    Feral - NM #99

  5. I'm guessing there may be a chance that they are following last year's SDCC model with another X-Force boxset to round out the team, similar to Dark Avengers 1 & 2?

    That may explain why 90's Warpath is in wave 37?

    If so, that would leave

    - Cannonball

    - Shatterstar

    - Boom Boom?

    - Siryn?

    Maybe substitute Stryfe for one of those? Unless the Cable from the announced boxset comes with additional Stryfe armor, that would be sweet!

    My thoughts on the announced set:

    - Feral is a great opening for either 1) an official Wolfsbane release or 2) a very easy custom Wolfsbane! B)

    - Cable, I'm surprised I like this one as much as I do. Unnecessary, but still cool.

    - Domino, the only way we'll ever get a Domino Minimate, so I'm happy.

    - Deadpool, a very necessary re-issue. I like that they are staying the with 'villain' style since we already have the 'goofy' version. I applaud DST for re-releasing him.

  6. Although banned in the EU* I believe this is not the case in the US.....& perhaps explains a few things :D

    Are you inferring that our National pasttime of watching cars go around a giant oval while swigging Natty Light and listening to Larry the Cable Guy stand-up on our iPod's we bought at Wal-Mart....are you saying this may be due to CHINESE PLASTICS!!! It's an invasion, grab your shotguns boys - YEEEEHAW!

    ;)

    [but seriously....you may be on to something.] <_<

  7. Thanks mini. I agree about Strider and Legolas, but as they were the first 2 released, Sideshow really stepped it up for the others. Boromir is one of my favorites, but Gandalf takes the cake.

    Wormtongue, Saruman, and a 20" Sauron would have been EPIC!

    I don't know why they bothered to come up with the Hobbit-sized body and never made Merry and Pippin???

    If nobody here is interested in them, I may just pack them away in the basement and forget about them for a while.

    There's always hope that the future Hobbit films may renew some interest from Sideshow's sculpters. <_<

  8. I know this technically needs to go in the buy/sell thread, but as I'm realizing that this board has much more 1:6 scale activity I thought so I might get better results tossing this out here.

    Would anyone be interested in a complete set of all 7 Sideshow Lord of the Rings 1:6 figures? They are all the Exclusive versions with extra accessories. All are MIB and never opened, I couldn't bring myself to do it. By far the best packaging Sideshow has done for a 12" line yet.

    I bought all of these new from Sideshow and it really pissed me off that they "unofficially" cancelled the line without at least completing the Fellowship, and as much as I love the figures, I think they bring me more bitterness than joy at this point. :angry:

    Now they have "unofficially" cancelled the 12" Indiana Jones line too. I have quickly come to learn that when Sideshow puts a line "on-hold", you are most likely never going to see anymore figures.

    Let me know if anyone is interested, I'm only going to part with them as a set of 7. I'm probably going to list them on eBay at some point, but if anyone here wants them, PM me.

  9. Seriously though if you're worried about breaking up before you're even married ,there are perhaps bigger questions to ask yourself ??

    This.

    I don't mean to judge your relationship as I have not met either of you, but in the case of my wife and I (our 13th anniversary is next week!) I had a huge collection of comics (still do) and toys (sold most over the years) before we got married, and this thought never once crossed my mind. It wasn't because I wasn't well-planned before the wedding. It was because the idea of this marriage 'not working' wasn't even in my mind.

  10. I think the 2 best 4 packs released thus far are Defenders and Champions. Both sets are complete home runs.
    I agree. I finally got my champions set a few days ago and I'm having trouble deciding which character I like best.

    Same - i'm a massive X-Men fan, but it's Ghost Rider & Black Widow that i have trouble picking between for my Favourite figure in this set.

    I have to go with Ghost Rider, just for the sheer "1970's" of him! :)
