Emma Frost looks delicious!

Hey, guys. I have an extra variant Martian Manhunter and Validus' head, torso, lower torso and right leg (his right) if anyone is looking...

I'm addicted to House of the Dead: Overkill! hahaha

I haven't bought a DCUC in forever, but couldn't pass up Raven, Sinestro Corps Batman and Martian Manhunter for $7.50 a piece last week.

Are there two versions of Martian Manhunter? There were two there with the conehead and an axe hand. The back of the box looks like a normal head and hand...

My modest Predator clan.

Guardian on the left and I THINK Predator 2 on the right. Which one is in the middle?

Try the Sideshow Freaks forums, MV. I found a guy on there that sold me a complete w/ box P1 Pred for $200-250 (can't remember exactly). Risky, yes, but once I got it in my hand it was sooo worth it!

A friend of mine sent me this pic. Coolest. Pumpkin. Ever.

I haven't played a game in months, so I picked up Dead Rising 2. So far? Eh, it's alright. Pretty mediocre IMO. Anybody else have it? Any tips? I never played the first one and find all the simultaneous missions somewhat confusing...

I haven't even opened my Guardian Predator yet! haha

That sucks, dude. I've seen it discussed on the sideshow forum. Doesn't seem terribly complicated, but still it's a hassle you have to fix it in the first place.

I looked it up, used some superglue to weld the cheap ass plastic "arms" and got him back together and working. For as much as that figure cost, I shouldn't have to be repairing the main selling point (PERS).

My DX Joker's PERS system broke and he's cross-eyed now. Guess I'm gonna have to open that head up and see what's inside. Saw a few home fixes for the problem...

Good to hear, Jeff. I'm glad things are looking up for you & your family!

Although not as good as Enterbay's, I'll buy that Bruce because it's half the price and almost as good. PERS is the sh*t!

I got my Guardian yesterday. Still haven't opened the shipping box! haha Maybe tonight after the kids go to bed. I still haven't decided if I will open this package. It could very well be my most valuable toy!

My waitlist from about 6 minutes after going on sale shipped. I've heard some that actually got the preorder in havent shipped yet... strange.

I received an email that my Guardian Predator waitlist reservation was converting!

Sh*t, hide your stash! There's a cop over there!

...seriously though, congrats!

I had two figures with issues:

-Silver Age Angel with a chipped belt piece and a wing that wouldn't stay on

-X-Factor Cyclops with a poorly painted pelvis

I contacted DST Customer Service (Chris Myers specifically) and he said he'd check on those parts. I received an email a few days later saying that they had them and they would get them in the mail to me that week. No pieces and no responses to the numerous emails since. On the last one, I mentioned being a member here and saying that I was sure that this wasn't the way people have been handled in the past. Still nothing.

That treatment and the nosedive in quality is why I've quit collecting Minimates.

Dude. I'm feeling for you. Your posts are horrifc to fellow parents. I can't imagine.

Hang in there, brother. They need you strong.

I got my DX Joker and Hot Toys Predator 1 this week.

My birthday is next week and the Joker was my supposed to be my birthday gift from my girlfriend. She broke up with me on Monday and Joker arrived at my door on Tuesday. He is now called the Consolation Prize!

I remember seeing Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman for the first time. I was probably in first or second grade. This was literally my first love. After that episode, girls were no longer icky. (...although the girls at school didn't have hooters like that!)

Although that's a statue, K80, all I can see is the bust!

*groan*

(wow, that was very BHM-esque...)

I jumped on last night for some double xp. Man that online is still pretty shaky. I fell to my death several times due to the choppiness!

My Sideshow Babysitter from The Dead line has legs like a ragdoll. If she didn't have a stand, she'd be a crawler!

QC issues a-plenty, huh? That's why I ditched 'Mates some years ago. Sounds like it's coming back full force!

I also have been awaiting a couple replacement pieces that were damaged right out of the box. I was told they'd get them right out. That was in February and they haven't responded to any of the several emails since!

I'm sorry, but if you guys keep buying them and "give up" on getting your parts, you only encourage them to continue giving you shoddy toys (while raising the price) and ignore your emails when you notify them.

I guess this is goodbye again, 'Mates. Maybe I'll see you again if you get your sh*t together...

(...or I can buy you at TRU where you can be easily returned as defective.)
