I've read Karamazov80 's posts about 'The Texas Chain-Saw Massacre' with a certain wry smile on my face this evening. I've spent 6 hours out in the piss-pouring rain today ,fencing off a field on my farm which entails using my chain-saw. If they were to re-make TCSM & film it here, it would be hilarious. Nobody would die,nobody would even get cut because by the time anybody got the chain-saw started ...everybody would've legged it. I need a new spark-plug / chain-saw

I think Hollywood should complete the 'Michael Caine trilogy'......The Italian Job , & Get Carter were apparently destroyed. I confess that I could never bring myself to watch either re-make but I really look forward to...... Zulu. Perhaps Clint could direct & we could have the film slanted towards the Zulu-perspective of the battle a la 'Flags of ...Letters from Iwo Jima'.

As this thread spirals downwards with vast inputs of irony & sarcasm, measured with more than a hint of naivete, I'll stick my neck out & say that all these items will find their way to AFX after SDCC.

The Minimate colander is my grail....my holey grail

Most things you read in a book of fiction are fictional. Most things you read in a non-fiction books are mostly fictional. Most of my best-friends are fictional.

I really tried with the 80's thing but to no avail.....however how's about my ol' droogs in Clockwork Orange (70's) All you'd really need is a load of 'FCBD Whites'* , a load of C3 Riddler bowlers** & er..um..er ...some long phallic prosthetic noses...*** *sorted **sorted(pending) *** ...have to check out the 'parts for trade' thread...viddy well elst get a tolchock in the yarbles

I would love to see a 3 inch version of Tim Curry's big Satan-thing. I'm sure you would K........I'm sure you would My GF is currently laughing out-loud ...

BHM, I just checked my case of moderns and there were only 450 cases of those as well. But you're right, due to the FYE Suncoast five packs there were many more moderns produced. But only 5400 moderns came in those individual boxes. Thanks Rad. I perhaps never quite realised how scarce the Classics were.

I apologise for banging on about these Cylons but I just cannot get this in my head. OK, I totally accept all that has been said about the amount produced, Classics- 450 cases of 12 . That's 5400 total production with 5 different variations of Cylon in various numbers. That's correct..Yes?! There are therefore 450 Gold Battle Damaged..Yes?! So how many of the 'Moderns' were produced in cases & how many FYE Suncoasts 5 packs were produced . Surely the answer must be.... many more Moderns were produced than Classics.....Yes?

....'like remember that guy in like 1820' ......????? ......how old are you?* I beleive & I believe you do. * bhm waits for sarcastic response from cruel MMMV members who know his Achilles-heel. **edit** Thanks for the PMs I could have sworn it said colander not..........collander. I've been under a lot of...... er....er...STRAIN.

So how do you explain this then ...or this.. Yes . The Mayan Colander Maker 2008 .

This is definitely a subliminal warning. Apocalypse .....storm More forebodings of .........self-castration? Behold the Mayan colander from 400 BC...worryingly intact ! What does he know?

What about Black Tom Cassidy, the Black King (Sebastian Shaw), Black Condor, Black Orchid, the Black Racer, the Black Hand, and the Black Sabbath box set? Jesus, how lazy are comic writers, anyway? And aren't Black Vulcan and Black Lightning basically the same character? Anybody see the Saturday Night Live sketch of Superman's funeral, where Sinbad was Black Lightning? Awesome. Found it, and isn't Al Franken a great Lex? http://onmymind1.blogspot.com/2007/03/snl-...-lightning.html Brilliant ,esp. Hulk & the reading-glasses

Its nice to hear you admit how much of the plot you have lost

I have 186 on display on each of my desks ......& I've got tons of desks & loads of bigger boxes full of desks I like mine more, though. Exactly! Less is the new more.

I thought it was the Battle damaged Gold/commander? for classic and obviously the chromed/downloaded for the modern. T. TBT,I'm not sure but my point is 450 of that item is pretty rare

Well, lets take a look at what has been made: Modern / Classic Cylon Cases of 12: Limited to 450 pieces of each, good luck new people who want to find some. Were there really only that many produced? I knew they were rare but didn't realise how rare That's 450 cases... which is still aprox 5k minimates about the same as the runs for most exclusives... T. Agreed... but I'm trying to remember which was the 1 in 12 ,Black Stealth?

Having not seen him in the flesh yet ,I have this to look forward to The underpants remind me of his 'Y-Man' incarnation from the 1974 Y-Men Mini-Series 'The 3 Y's-Men' . I still think #3 , ''Y ' Front against the X-Men' is a classic,only surpassed by # 4 'Stark Naked'. All we have to do now is wait for all the helmet jokes! T. Haven't heard from HAR for some while

For some reason, these just don't seem to work for the U.S. We like to know what we're getting. The Japanese, on the other hand, seem to enjoy the thrill of discovery, I guess. I hate blind boxes. I also hate 1/100 variants, or whatever the ratio is for some of those Kubricks. 1/12, and knowing which pack has the variant, is much better. As you chaps Stateside say " do the math". The Kubrick Star Wars Series 8 has just been released. There are 6 regular figures,a 1/48 chase & two 1/96 secrets. If you are lucky there is a chance that you will find the whole set after buying 8 cases of 12 blind boxes. A chance! Currently on ebay a case of 12 will cost you a few dollars short of $100. 8x $100 = obscene Collecting these f$£kers is a disease

I know this is old hat but surely we can't continue to have all these bleedin good guys & no sh%tting bad guys. We all know we need some really bad-ass bad guys. Red Skull would fit in with just about everything recently done & imminent.......Invaders.... doh! Currently the world is safe because we have a veritable cornucopia of heroes up against a Latvian ,an Octoped & the friggin Osbournes ....ooh scarey! :sad:

You have to realise,if you don't already,how far advanced you guys, in the US, are compared to us humble Brits. Perhaps not so much now but when I first watched the 'Rockford Files' nobody I knew had an answering machine So I went out & bought one & the message I left for people to reply to was " Hi this is Jim Rockford....etc.etc...",probably not funny now but all the people leaving messages obviously loved it ..then" The Rockford Files & James Garner . I loved 'em. Never did get the Impala!
