TLD he was fine, he is all about bmx racing now and has the full kit. He could wreck on a moto bike doing 30 and be fine with all that gear!!! Thank you though.
That dinosaur does look great J. I have been kicking Groot ideas about for ages. Loved the super Tom, really like the Young Patriot version. Got this one kind of on a whim after stumbling on a deal and haggling with the seller. I thought the neck too K. Could really help out the overall look. Got the StarLord Groot combo from a cat in Indiana as well. Made me think of you. I am seeing that toy guy this weekend about your Rick Grimes by the way. I will let you know by Sunday. I am going to the post office again tomorrow to pick up your head Jedi. Have went three times and they were closed each time. Have it timed this go though. People are always going on about the mods here and "staying in topic" but in 2 years time and 2000 plus posts I have never seen them say anything. Not even close. Fuck all in fact. Also, I got kicked off Facebook for using a false name. Arre Tist was me. As in artist,so I may have to start a MySpace page! as long as we don't kill anyone I am pretty sure we are fine here in our little corner of the ark. To quote David Walliams, " what makes Britain great is it is the greatest country in all Britain." Hope your package arrives tomorrow Pilk. I so want to see what the Doom army looks like with 8 bots, K Dubs main Doom from his awesome diorama and the two new Terminator Dooms from TLD. Gonna be pretty epic!! Might not be the biggest Doom army but it has to have the most high profile figures in it! Also most have travel several thousand miles altogether. Lot of love in that lot of evil. |

I thought MySpace was fun. It was like your own website. No two peoples page was the same and you could have music and such.
I am on Twitter, but rarely use it @ArtWasMyWeapon Also Law, do you want that helicarrier this weekend? I can bring it to Halifax if so....

MU more or less doesn't exist in Ireland, save for some overpriced figures I found in World of Wonder(17 euro each I think, 35 for MLs in one shop!). A few used to turn up in Tescos a few years back but not anymore.

There European distribution has improved greatly. Maybe Jackie can help you out Madame Warlock.... He is good guy and has a great reputation in the community all over the internets.
That Red She Hulk wave landed here too before there. I believe there was a longshoreman strike in LA and all the goods sat in docks for a month which I turn pushed everything back like three months.

Everywhere I go, I keep seeing Beast and Dark Beast. Two different Sainsbury's, two different ASDA's, a couple of small toy shops and even saw one in a charity shop yesterday!!!! Kinda blew me away seeing it there. Almost grabbed it for the sake of grabbing it, then thought some kid should get him so maybe he can appreciate Marvel figures later. So glad I got the SHS Beast last year fromTLD. I thought that figure would have sold well. All the chinabay sellers have him for a fiver as well.

Region 4 always gets retail first. Then usually region 1 ( n. America) then us, Australia and S. America in no particular order.
Wish I would have grabbed an Emma the other day from C-bay because now they are auctioning them one at a time and they are £25 and climbing fast!!! Also, Korg was in Taobao but not C-bay.... Weird.

OK guys Ive started casting and its going better than I thought. failed my first attempt but my second and third went well.
So to carry on with my testing Id rather make the casts of the heads that people would want more so any suggestions on heads to cast first that you guys would want to buy? |

I have four water slide decals of the planet emblem for their chest. Not going big,just the four, a Ronan, a Supreme Intelligence and a Mar-Vell from next years 2 pack. That will do for the Kree for us.

Alright geezers!
I got my bootleg / Knock-off YELLOW JACKET today. He's pretty much what I expected in terms of quality (not great) but given Hasbro's recent movie figure output I find him perfectly serviceable as is. However I already had plans for this guy and was pretty happy to see my idea to use the head and "arms" on a TRON figure body works okay, although Im waiting for a CLU figure which should work a lot better with his yellow highlights. I think the head would be good to cast for customs (I can send you this one if you want Pilkster?) but to be honest this figure and the set it came in are so cheap you may as well just use this one (if you don't mind the wait from China).

So what's going on with those arms - are they articulated in any way?

I reckon you could cut them and glue some joints in there with little problem though.
