Wave 83

Price increases happen. Eventually there’s gonna be a set I skip. It was almost YA but ya got in the pizza dog and my girl Kate, so I had to. 
But for now the representation of the characters have been spot on, the accessories continue to be pretty baller, and the most annoying thing about the FF set was that I couldn’t just buy another Reed two pack to make him even longer. 
Make good stuff, I’ll give you money. I’m still in a place I can indulge this and my Lego hobby. Hopefully will be for a while.

hear hear. I've stopped being a completest and there are some sets I let fall by the wayside for any number of reasons.

The next few sets look amazing and so far, I have staved off product fatigue because the figures look so good! I've been lucky to be in a place in my life I can afford this little addiction. 

I totally agree about the FF set BTW but for me, it was Doom's cape. I had a whole host of shadow figures planned that are WAY too expensive under the current packaging.

Real death rattle stuff.

No plans, sorry:

But seriously, I don't think the Marvel line will go anywhere, but other lines that do not perform as well are certainly problematic. We're trying to keep everything alive.

just let us know what we can do to help (other than the obvious buying it).

I got my set from the warehouse and promptly misplaced it, so I have yet to take them out and shoot them, but I am irrationally excited about the translucency!

I don't see how that fits.

[elhonez]

Well I found him to be quite transparent.

[Navaan]

I'd really like my set..but I pre-ordered from Amazon. Clearly, Luke's is the way to go.. 

[Chigarillo]

So... What are people doing for Patriot, Speed, Stature and Iron Lad?

Recipes for QCs or full customs? Let's see what you've got.

[Navaan]

Hey @DSTZach any chance you know when Amazon should get their shipment?

[DSTZach]

I would THINK that Amazon would receive their shipment when the other retailers did. UNLESS they get everything they order in their own shipping container, in which case it could be a little later, if they're waiting to fill it. Honestly not sure. Sorry for the delay, guys.

Appreciate the reply. Looks like I'm stuck atm, then. Talked to my LCS who is just ordering it from y'all direct.
