  1. A HUGE thanks to Shane, Limited Edition and everyone who made this happen. I got mine on a particularly bad day of work and it made my day! What was mine you might ask? A X3 Wolverine! Pics to come when I unbork my camera!
  2. Damnit! Now I'm going to ruin a perfectly good six (or SDCC six, depending on how I'm feeling) when I get home
  3. Again, excited excited excited! Thank you to Shane and LE!!!!
  4. Apparently, the timeline for Springfield, IL went like this: I call Monday looking, no love. Mates go out Tuesday. I call Tuesday, nobody has any clue. I call Wednesday, Ditto. I call Friday before I drive home, no clue. Somebody buys all of the Iron Man packs. I show up and find one empty peg and all the Hulk ones. I am a very sad Panda. The guy I know who works there says they'll be back in stock in a little bit, but it's still annoying
  5. Wait, wait, so if we're all getting a "secret" gift, which of us are Skrulls? Thanks Limited Edition!!!
  6. Yeah, not meaning to be shameless, but look in the trades section someone *ahem* got a large number of P2 Ryu/Akuma sets because the seller misrepresented them, if people need em for collection building or whatnot.
  7. Not enough? Seriously, around 200. Mostly Sci-fi and boxed sets, though I am slowly getting into comic book mates because I can read comic books again without getting fed up. Also, the Iron Man movie made me REALLY want Iron Men All time Favorite: Dead Pegasus Six. She's just amazingly well done from an artistic and design standpoint. It doesn't hurt I'm a huge BSG fan though Second Favorite: Probably Shirtless Sulu because we always used to joke about him when I was a kid growing up. We nicknamed a store "Sulu's intimate apparel" and we made jokes like "Free pointy sword and bottle of veggie oil with each purchase". Obviously, there are contenders for that throne though, I think the War Machine Variant coming up might be a contender if it turns out as well/better than the press photos. I also think Deadpool has a lot of potential, but the fact that DSTMatt said "No removable mask" in the last Q&A makes me sadpanda
  8. Quasi-evil. Semi-evil. The diet co-ke of e-vil.
  9. Thinking about it, Bond would really only work well if they either had enough money to sink into it to do a TON of custom gear sculpts or if they decided to do vehicles (which have never gone over well the way I see it). I mean, I think they could get enough Iconic characters from both new and old Bond because other than Mr. Bond, enough of them have an iconic look that could easily be abstracted down into a mate while communicating a message. For example, they could do a 2.5 inch overscale, add a bit of silver to the mouth design and have a simple yet effective Jaws figure. A Blowfeld would be easy enough to do on the "clothing" paint alone because the only person in main stream film that looks anywhere near like him is Dr. Evil (IMHO). They are going to be hobbled with the plain looking Bond, which is why I think they'd have to make him good toys to make him neat to play with and pack him with a good mix of iconic characters. Look at what they are doing with BSG for example, there are a lot of characters there who just don't stand out unless you put them into context with a cylon or a colonial uniform or whatnot.
  10. Woo!!! Thanks for the link! Dirty Harry Customs here I come!
  11. I guess my name could be Tounge Does Stay Put.... Tounge Doesn't Stay Put?
  12. Ok, yeah, I guess I didn't realize how draconian your customs are :X
  13. I understand why you British guys wouldn't wanna eat international shipping (now that it's in over there), but why not grab stuff like this off BBTS if you didn't want to wait? I know they've had the set in stock since it came in and they ship internationally. Is there something I'm missing? Am I a bad person for ordering from BBTS?
  14. Dudddddddddddeeeeee!!!! Sweet! Argh! It is gonna hurt waiting for these waves. I am still on the fence, but I'll likely end up buying multiple deadpool packs just to play with the freakin deadpool
  15. The more I think about it, the more I really do wish they would put out one final set to wrap things up, even if it is a boxed set. I know that the producers said it would be a 3 hour or more finale, so that might serve as a perfect excuse to do one last boxed set with those exclusive characters (assuming Hot Dog isn't from that ep). My fantasy wishlist for a final run includes things like a "sick" Rosalyn and the Priest Lady, Billy and a Casual Dualla, and a few other pilots in or out of uniform.
  16. They also created Torchwood though :tongue: I keeeeeed! I guess I also can add some other snark back at our English cousins: You guys got to see the first season of BSG WELL before we did (partially because Sky One funded it and made it happen). As well, the unaired episodes of a lot of canceled series aired over there well before they hit American shores on DVD (Firefly comes to mind). I'm Psyched for the two new lines, I am kinda disapointed in some parts of it; I think the Tory looks a bit bland among some other things. I can KINDA see the green dress uniform, it might just be a color match/bad photo issue. When you look at the dress uniforms from the Pegasus crew for example, they are a greenish olive. I guess there could be an iconic scene in the last half of Season 4 where Hot Dog appears in a green/olive/whatever color dress uniform. I mean, I would assume that the Art Assylum people get spoiled in on this stuff as part of the planning that goes into making new lines and new selections. Edit: Here's a good picture of the Pegasus crew in Olive Dress Uniforms from the BSG wiki: http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Image:Ca...essUniforms.jpg
  17. Hey everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster! I'm a big fan of all of the Sci-Fi mates and recently I've dipped my toe into Marvel mates by grabbing Iron Man stuff (the throughout the ages set is soooooooooo cool!). I also am a HUGE BSG fan and am very happy I've managed to get several of the Red Dress Six varriants from SDCC from the eBay I figure I'll show up and hang out some when I look around for mates This tends to be one of my first stops for information and to know what's coming out.
