http://mspaintadventures.com/ The first act is kinda boring, but it's really worth it once you get through it. It has amazing music and flash movies, and some are interactive. We're on act 5 act 2 right now.

xkcd, Our Valued Customers and Dinosaur Comics are good too, but they've already been linked.

How much? and is she a KO?

around 50, whats KO?

That's a pretty good price for a Yuki at this point, especially if it is shipped.

As for being a fake, with Figmas you can usually tell, but it takes some studying. http://pasublog.com/2009/05/25/bootleg/ Always look for the hologram sticker on the box. With Haruhi ones it's a circle in the upper left side on the front. If you don't see it, get ready to run.

I thought the real ones weren't supposed to come with a hologram sticker? Because I just checked my boxes and they don't have it, and I remember someone saying on another board that the sticker thing was something that bootleggers made up to trick people into buying KOs. You would usually see a comparison picture, and the one with the sticker would be marked as real while the one without was marked fake.

Unless they only did that for the Haruhi figmas, because I don't have any.

The Dude in the suit on the left with the green haired girl behind him (sneaking up on him?) who is that? His suits so nice I need that for fodder!

That's Taniguchi, his head comes with Asakura and you put it on a Kyon or Itsuki body. Though I don't know who the girl next to him is.

Yeah, there's a couple that come with guitars:

I thought Colossus and Kitty were a thing? Or were before he dies. And then came back. And then she dies. Is she still dead?

Ultimate Colossus is the gay one. Alternate continuity, remember?

Kitty's not "dead" anymore. Magneto brought her back somehow. Though she's apparently having trouble controlling her phasing powers now.

And for the last time, Admiral Cain and Gina from BSG. Batwoman and Renee Montoya from DC. Why do people always forget the lesbians?

don't forget Mr Sulu!!!!

Was Sulu really gay? I thought it was just George Takei.

Because DC stands for "doesn't count" :tongue:

I might pick up 2 sets again. I love the Max line and combination are just greet, hope this is also packed full of accessories.

However am I the only one that thinks it's a bit racist that only thee all white line was available to retail and the "multicultural figures" are for the direct market?

Nah, there's a disparity of percentage of women in the United States(50%) vs percentage of women serving as police officers(25%), likewise with the other two. So if you buy each pack at TRU and one box set, you'll almost have an accurate representation of diversity in the workplace.

But seriously guys, in the next Tron movie

give us more of TRON HIMSELF

This was my first time watching this video as well. It was much better than Dark Tide.

Whatever happens, I am not in favor of an AOA Sinister/Ms Sinister setup.

And yeah, I wouldn't really like AOA Sinister in place of the 616 version. I've never heard of Ms Sinister and having AOA Sinister as the variant makes much more sense.

That's not what he said:

I'm also totally on board with Sinister having the AoA variant OVER the Ms Sinister Variant

AoA instead of Ms.

616 would still be the regular figure.

I'm well aware. But we don't know which version of Sinister they'll use, and I'm voicing my opinion that I do not want AOA Sinister in place of the 616 version, and if they are going to do an AOA Sinister then it should be the variant.

But yeah, that Kang/Black Knight pairing is fast becoming my most wanted pairing ever. I hope we see those guys in 2011. And a Squadron Supreme set would be a lovely addition as well.

Let the shipping wars begin.

Mister Sinister is a horrible looking character, but an essential X-Villain. So. . .good news.

Toad, Pyro, comic Blob, and Avalanche NEED to be made, though.

Better looking than you

Laser Armor Spider-Man & Hobgoblin w/ new glider

Thorbuster Iron Man & Bulked Up Hulk

Nimrod & Mr Sinister

Nimrod & Ms Sinister variant

I put Hobgoblin instead of Green Goblin because Hobby's coming back in the comics and GG's been done a lot recently.

Yessssssss I'm so glad we're finally getting Sinister. I can't wait to see the prototypes. Depending on how things look I might get the whole wave. Too bad Luke made a custom of Nimrod, that might set the record for fastest retired custom XD

The Michael Jackson Thriller version figma is up for preorder! He even comes with extra hands so your other figmas can do the dance. And if you like Bakemonogatari, you can preorder the Senjougahara figma too.

Iron Man Rolling Headquarters-$14.99

This is seriously one of the best toys for kids and it's at an amazing price. Now if only someone can explain to me why Iron Man needs it...

Because every superhero needs a vehicle XD And besides, why not? Tony can afford it.

Anyway, if Holocaust only invokes the meaning of THE Holocaust and not the original meaning, then I guess I can understand why they changed his name. Everyone will still call him Holocaust anyway though.

I'm pretty sure that Holocaust was given his name specifically to invoke thoughts of The Holocaust. He was, after all, a genetic supremacist who was charged with culling the human population of Seattle because they were deemed weak and unworthy.

For the discerning reader there a reason for his horrible name . . . for the mum or dad buying toys for their kids at the biggest toy-chain in the world, there is a reason not to by little timmy or little suzy an action figure.

I see. I'm not familiar with the character and looked up his powers and such, and they seem to fit the original meaning as he did

2

: a thorough destruction involving extensive loss of life especially through fire <a nuclear holocaust>

but I didn't know the creators intended to invoke thoughts of The Holocaust.

Oh man, I want that Samus. She never gets any good toys, and when she does they end up being really expensive because Nintendo doesn't release enough of them.

In Magic there are cards named Armageddon, Apocalypse, Wrath of God, Jihad, and there are plenty of angels and demons. Nobody really has any problems with that.

First there's NOTHING offensive about mentioning fictional vague pseudo-relgious ideas like "Armageddon" or "Apocalypse" no one has died in those (yet?) and when they do maybe Hasbro/DST will start selling "En Sabah Nur" figures to not offend those of us left behind.

Second I looked up the Jihad card to see it's context (because yes, in the right context that's extremely offensive) and it's THE EXACT OPPOSITE of what you're saying with Holocaust.

The Jihad card was released in "Arabian Nights" in 1993, back then "Jihad" meant "to struggle against adversity" it's the concept of bettering one's self through enduring hardships. The word has never meant "Holy War" and has only recently been corrupted so it's mistaken to mean such. If you can find any proof of a post-9/11 release of the card I'll agree it's just as offensive, but since it looks to have only been released in 1993.

Holocaust was named 50 years after the word 'holocaust' stopped just meaning "burnt whole" and took on a very specific new context (and was probably named that just to evoke the horrors the name conjures) this isn't some wacky co-inky-dink were Holocaust just happened to mean something horrible and they found out later, they knew and intentionally called him that.

... at any rate, I'm gonna call him Holocaust and I don't give a crap what the card says, but that's the reason he's called "Nemesis" because THE Holocaust has changed the meaning of the word, just like I'm sure if there's a Marvel character called "Jihad" (I bet there is... if not there will be, I'm picturing a black misty Nightcrawler-like character) the minimate will go by his secret identity or lesser used code name.

Maybe naming a character Apocalypse isn't offensive to you, but my mom didn't want to watch anime anymore after she saw zombies coming out of ground, and if you read Revelations that's when people come back to life, so that's how I can see Apocalypse being offensive to some people. Sure people haven't died yet, but tons will when the time comes.

Why does Jihad have to be post 9/11 to be offensive? Jihad has been used for holy war long before then. If you're going to say it was because of the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers, then take a look at this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Trade_Center_bombing

It happened in 1993.

Anyway, if Holocaust only invokes the meaning of THE Holocaust and not the original meaning, then I guess I can understand why they changed his name. Everyone will still call him Holocaust anyway though.

Is there a reason why they have to call Holocaust "Nemesis"?

THE HOLOCAUST! The Holocaust is the reason he's called Nemesis.

I can see that, but is it really any more offensive than Apocalypse? That's why I'm asking.

In Magic there are cards named Armageddon, Apocalypse, Wrath of God, Jihad, and there are plenty of angels and demons. Nobody really has any problems with that.

For anyone still looking for Hulkbuster, my Wal-Mart just restocked the Iron Man 2 figures and they're $5 each right now, maybe yours did as well.

Shame about the crappy Wolverine re-pack, but the rest look good. Omega Red's whips might look better if they plugged into his gauntlets instead of him holding them.

Yeah, I'm hopin' that gets fixed too.

Well if they do plug into his gauntlets, then those cables will suffer the same problem as the first Apocalypse. Sometimes they'll just fall out, or they'll get stuck and bend off. I didn't even do anything to my second one and it happened when it was in storage. Now I have my third one in its original plastic tray.

Is there a reason why they have to call Holocaust "Nemesis"? Because he's been called Holocaust in other toy lines.

Anyway, this is a really awesome line up. I'll probably get Omega Red and Holonemecaustsis.

I haven't played any of the Tomb Raider games except when I tired the first one, so I hope the controls are better. When I tried playing the controls were extremely difficult, and Lara ended up having a seizure before getting shot to death.

If I send you an Excalibur boxset when it is released, will you throw it into the lake?

This is probably what would happen:

>You throw the Excalibur boxset into the lake

A fairy appears from the depths holding the Excalibur boxset

"Did you throw this into the lake?"

>Yes

"For your honesty, here is a golden Excalibur boxset"

Dannychoo.com is having a contest where you pick up to $100 worth of items on jlist.com, and the winner who is selected at random gets all that stuff. I hope I win, so I can get a takoyaki maker XD Takoyaki is supposedly really delicious, but I've never had it before and I have no idea where I can find a restaurant that makes it. So, why not make it myself? The neat thing about the machine is that you can use it to make hush puppies too.

I might be mistaken, but didn't BHM show us a picture that had tons of boxes in it? Or was that someone else?

What are you going to name it? And will it have fish?
