I live in PEI dude, we have like jackshit for selection, I live in ch'town, there's 1 walmart, 1 zellers, 1 winners and 2-3 lcs, I haven't had time or $$ to go hunting lately, to see otherwise. My local Zellers, had sentinels but that's about it. Luckily between now and summertime we're suppose to be getting a Toysrus store and the Zellers store is becoming a Target, so should make for a lot more selection.

if that's the case, you should look into picking them up. i didn't know the dark variant ever made it to retail. that could be some freak Canada thing. Dark Galactus goes for $75+ these days.

i'd take one for $50 plus shipping to L.A.

Whoa, thats a great price. Shipping them down to the states would cost a fortune though.

Depends if it's shipped moc or loose, loose would probably be like $20-30 range.

Thats still a whole lot dude. By the time your guys shipped it off it would cost the same as just buying it in the states.

SH0CKWAVE · 02-23-2012, 03:53 PM

i'd insist it be shipped loose. i dont need the box. lol. i'd easily pay $70/75 for a Dark Galactus shipped to my home.

easily.

Well if he's $74.99 or $79.99 in the US, factor that I believe your $$ is slightly more then ours, yes shipping will suck, but what do u expect the guy's like 15-18'' tall and weighs like 5lbs lol. plus if you take the box out of the equation you would save $$$ plus you'd be saving the taxes atleast. $10 saved is still $10.

You make a good point, plus if you Canadian guys can find them for $50 I'd recommend just picking up a few anyway. You can either sell them or trade them out down the road.

On the suggestion of your guys here I decided to pick one up. It was $48 before tax so not bad at all. I did count six more of the dark guy on the shelf at the TRU near me. Like I said, the dark one is the only one I've ever seen here at any of the stores. Same with the Giant Sized X-Men pack, all we got was variants. I think the 30% sale ended tonight but it is one that they seem to have every 4-5 weeks. Next week is 40% off Star Wars 3.75" stuff I think.

Also I scored this guy. Found him when I glanced down to the bottom of the Clone Wars figure bin, under about 50 figures.

The shipping would turn you off so hard your dick would fall off.

According to the Canada Post web site shipping would be about $28. Although you never know until you show up. I love when I ship small boxes and they try to charge me $18 instead of the $6.50 small packages rate because my box is TOO SMALL!!!!. I get a slightly BIGGER box and they charge me the cheaper rate!?!?!

proteus · 02-25-2012, 02:16 PM

goddamn it that Dark variant is just too cool,would love to own one,but imagine the shipping charge to the UK!!!!!!!!!

NoodleChow · 02-25-2012, 03:25 PM

man yeah, shipping to and from the uk is just crazy talk. not to also mention all the horror stories that stemmed from someone trying to ship UK exclusive tron legacy merch to various people in the states.

dark galactus is where it's at.

ok, cool. yeah man, you already have my interest well known. haha. i'll definitely pick one up when the sale comes around and, more importantly, when you're able to scoop some up.

one thing about the Ark, favors go a long way!

proteus · 03-05-2012, 03:58 PM

Just wondered if any of you guys who own the BAF Galactus could help me out with a potential custom idea?? Im wondering if it would be possible to cut/dremel out his existing face and replace it with a skull to create a skeletal/zombie-esque Galactus???

Iceman · 03-17-2012, 08:28 AM

The sale is back on. $52 for the dark one right now. I'll check and see if they still have some left but I imagine they do. With shipping it'd be about $80 if anyone wanted one.
