If this turns out be a positive in any shape or form I will be surprised but ecstatic ....absolutely ecstatic.

When mine arrives Dan ,I'll watch it & send it on for you to watch You can send it back & I'll shove it quickly back up on ebay. OK :biggrin:

I think most here want the Red Skull but in the meantime we're getting a caricaturisation of Madonna who famously said that she " would be less controversial if I (she) joined the Nazi party". I guess we'd all demand a C3 Reichstag to be produced if ever it was deemed safe to give us Red Skull ,the 2" monster. Family movies like 'Silence of the Lambs ' & 'Platoon' are fine however

We are watching the last 4 episodes of Season 3 over the next couple of nights & I've just Pre-ordered Season 4 off of ebay. This is the first 10 episodes of Season 4 + Razor & is released early October ...... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=370086567506 Needless to say I'm enjoying it. Forgive me for repeating anything that may have been said by someone else but I try not to 'study' this thread.

Apparently if you pour a large glass of Lime soda ( Must be lime not lemon or even generic citrus) into your keyboard then run round the cpu 4 times singing " the cow kicked nelly in the belly in the barn" on the second tuesday of any month that starts with a letter not used in any other month then a link to a site for download of just such a tool will appear in your browser. Honest T. Poor guy will have to wait to December to try this one TBT,no fair

Maybe this will help ....the 'secret' Wolf Predator.

Hey K , I remember the time when you didn't really like kubricks

These arrived today & I have done my best to dislike them but they are absolutely gorgeous & they came out of the plastic ....anybody (is there anybody?) that reads my posts knows what that means to me Technical : The 'hands' are not similar to Minimates they are exactly the same. The feet & legs are ball-jointed 360 ,well to be accurate they are on some of them ,others are very stiff or seized. The heads rotate as does the waist but they have no elbow or knee joints. The paint & finish is as good as anything I've seen on 'mates or kubricks. Some of the parts may well interchange but you can try that with your own set As I said I genuinely didn't want another line to collect but these are cute....very cute.

Now that we know Thor isn't included in this box-set it's probably the right time to get hold of Series 16 which includes Thor & their first foe Loki . Thor seems somewhat elusive/expensive on ebay though Cornerstore apparently still have it http://www.cornerstorecomics.com/

Absolutely stunning work.Bloody brilliant.

More X-Men ?? I wonder which ones No Thor with Avengers #1 I suppose they'll announce a Beatles Minimate box-set next entitled The Fab Three ......minus John Lennon. The most irritating thing for me is the 'passing of the buck' regarding the Dr.Who Minimate/Underground Toys License. Now I know that Dr.Who isn't everybody's 'cup of tea' but c'mon they would sell like 'hot cakes' so there has to be another agenda here which is beginning to stink. I am not suggesting that DST is the problem but surely someone at DST could perhaps give Underground a call & politely ask what's going on & put a few fans out of their misery. I KNOW what's going on because I ASKED the senior Underground representative the question at SDCC . Unfortunately any information (about anything actually ) I obtained from SDCC is either denied or debunked & frankly I've just given up bothering to relay it.

I'm probably older than your dad & he ain't cheap because you'll only get the one & he's priceless. SDCC ain't a cheap deal but definitely a worthwhile experience & trust me it is not a 'fiscal decision' to go to SDCC & 'get the deals'...don't bother its a Muggs game(pun intended). NYCC?.... I have never been to it but I'm told it's fun & I'm sure you'll find the booths.

Unfortunately mine arrived ....all bent

Very funny & I know at least one person, who until today, has been 'singing gibberish' along to that song for over 30 years. I never even knew it was written by Springsteen . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs0JoZHGP9M...feature=related Thanks Karamazov,nice to have you back.

Those are very disturbing This is far more entertaining http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2aRDacKANs

All the images of the kubricks are of the genuine articles.

I can vouch for the seller having bought from him/her many times ,in fact I'm bidding on an item from them now. I am more concerned why you are so sceptical about kubrick sellers ? Kubricks (non box-sets) are generally blind-boxed so MIB tends to go out of the window but most sellers tend to supply the opened box,it's polite If you doubt the authenticity of any kubrick follow the guidance in the kubrick thread which when navigated will direct you to kubrick indices. In all fairness the only 'bootlegs' that regularly turn up on ebay are the 'tinned Star Wars' Starbricks which were perhaps licensed but ain't kubricks.

You even change the spelling of shit in the U.S. Have you no shame?

You can but you'll need a large box & my address

The freezer trick works because the molecules in the minimate head contract at lower temperatures, making it slightly smaller. Obviously the helmet becomes slightly smaller too but because it's much thinner the change in size is less than the head experiences and a very thin layer of ice occurs between the two making it easier to slide off. It won't do any lasting damage if you let the pieces return to room temperature before manhandling the joints. The Eiffel Tower increasing / decreasing in size depending on the season is the same principle! They put the Eiffel Tower in a freezer,to get its helmet off ? Awesome!

I suppose I deserve your scepticism but it's 100% true.

Thankyou for sorting things out.I'm grateful.

Because that's a character from some UK comic Shocker said they were going to make. Sounds odd to mee Rouge Trooper.... so many jokes, so littel time. Whilst at SDCC I was staying at an hotel that was probably featured in a couple of snuff videos from the 70's. The first morning was going to be bad enough anyway because I was meeting TBT for the first time but I met these 'guys' in the lobby. I was happily quaffing my coffee & muffin & hitting the Multiverse on the 'Bates' PC' whence these 3 'guys' in logo-emblazoned T-shirts 'tried' to start a conversation . "First time SDCC?". "Well actually yes " I replied. "Y'English" they enquired "Why yes!" I replied "& yourselves,is this your first time ?" "Nah,bin here a few years now" they replied almost as one. "Wow" I replied sliding into one of my unfortunate sarcastic sides of my multi-personalities. "Selling?" "No,I'm a fan " I replied & it was then that that the logos on the T-shirts registered & I blurted out "Shocker Toys" "Have you heard of us?" they ,as one,replied. "Have I" I replied in the affirmative,nodding with a knowing grin " Have I" At this point I was surrounded by them & quite nonchalantly swivelled my PC screen towards them which quite deliberately was displaying 'our' Homepage. "I've heard all about you here" It was as one that they left . Perhaps it was their time. Perhaps SDCC beckoned. It was unclear as to what their departing words were but it definitely wasn't "Good to see you" or "Au Revoir", it was more a case of...... "one of those assholes,huh!" It was one of those Golden Moments in life & then......... .....TBT turned up Rouge Trooper... 2000AD .

Obviously not if your bothering to respond :biggrin:
