The logo was the hardest part. I ordered some sticker/decals and painted it red after gluing one on. That took some patience and steady hands which I do not have.

Sweet

Found the reaction deathstroke at fye. The also had canary dark Archer, Flash and captain cold. No actual arrow but no big loss for me as all I wanted was Slade. Damn I wish these came with modern articulation. Bonus side I was able to score 2 canary staffs and a cold gun since someone took the figures the store clerk I showed the open product to offered me the accessories left behind. The staffs are a bit thin but perferft for marvel u female hands and certain male figures too. I guess one will go to multiverse night wing and the other to either the fidder bin or into my secret hq dio. Slade sword is pretty well made not flimsy or too thick

Thank you sir and that's cool they let you keep the extra goodies since some d-bag swiped the figures.

Apparently alot of dbags in my area and its led to good things from me for being honest. Not the reason I do it but it happens.

Wish people were like that around here. The few times I've found damaged items and brought them to an employee I've never even gotten a thank you. A little common courtesy would be nice.

One time the person even thought I was the one who opened it. Why would I bring it to you if I did it? Blows my mind.

I've been to a couple places that have looked at me like I'm interrupting their day or that the missing item is on me or something. I remember I was on vacation last year and decided to hit up a tru and found an open item when I showed a worker they called their manager and told them I had found the item and literally in front of my eyes did the parenthesis fingers.

I think The IT Crowd said it best..."People, what a bunch of bastards." I love that show.

They never accused me when I report stuff. However more than one time the item was back on the peg/shelf!!!
One was a first Joe movie Storm Shadow with the figure gone and his accessories just loose in the package!

snake5289 · 08-29-2015, 05:44 PM

Well that just makes all kinds of sense right there. There was one time I remember seeing a Snake Eyes/Storm Shadow comic pack with the two figures gone but everything else in the package hanging on the rack.

Well, you COULD be trying to keep yourself off of the suspect list. *mysterious music plays*

Though why would anybody who's commited a crime like that go to the trouble of doing that?

I'm cool with seeing that happen but hate when they stil try to charge full price for it. One time I literally handed a Walmart employee a spiderman toy with no figure no accessories or holder in it u know just the card art and h front plastic and decided to do a quick run thru again in case I missed something before I left and she hung the package up and literally just taped the side back up.

Perhaps they have to pay for any stolen items they find, and she didn't want/couldn't afford to pay for that bit of stolen merchandise. That's the only possible logic I can figure for her doing that.

It's Walmart they literally walk it to the back and another worker writes up paper work on it the either sends the box on one the trucks back to one of the shipping offices or throw the box away. I worked for Walmart for a year. The only reason to do what she did was plan laziness.

You'd think she'd just throw it away if she was THAT lazy. Surely, whilst getting the tape, she passed a trash can(on the logic that she'd probably have to get it from an office area). I'm sorry if I seem to be going in circles here, but the gaping nebulas of logic holes here just baffle me.

The shelf stocker have carts out with the shit they need big ass rolls of tape sticker guns and stuff like that she really didn't need to walk anywhere. Hell she could have put the box on her cart and let another worker take it to the back. Seriously she could have done 5 different things other than what she did. She didn't use scotch tape she used packaging tape on it. I think I have a pic of the item on a memory card some where if I find it I'll post it.

Anyone has an extra DCC Injustice 3.75'' Flash they want to get ride off? Trade or sell is fine by me.

Thanks

My Injustice Wonder Woman is still intact so far.

See I only have the Wonderwoman on the left there. So as tiny as Injustice WW is she's still much better.

3233rafael · 09-06-2015, 02:08 PM

Found these again today @ ToysRus!

Il Cattivo · 09-06-2015, 03:47 PM

saw that bane at walgreens today. passed. not for me.

snake5289 · 09-06-2015, 04:40 PM

Wish it was like that here. Walgreens can't seem to move past the Origins Batman wave. BUT there's a Wal-Mart by my grandparents that's had the Grundy and Clayface packs for a while now. I'm gonna try and grab a Grundy when I go visit them this week.

sephiroth61787 · 09-06-2015, 06:41 PM

Saw that Bane at K-Mart today. Picked it up along with some Star Wars 3.75".

Grippen · 09-11-2015, 02:31 AM

My metallic blue Neo Vipers arrived a couple of days ago. Color match is not perfect to Deathstroke but similar enough for me at least. I will be giving him the additional articulation treatment this weekend.

Universe · 09-11-2015, 03:55 AM

Grippen; I look forward to seeing that Deathstroke once you're done

vindowviper · 09-12-2015, 11:27 AM

I seem to remember someone mentioning that they fixed their injustice Wonder Woman broken shoulder joints. Anyone have any helpful hints on how to repair them?

My solution was to buy four before giving up.

Finally saw the batman beyond/66 wave at retail. Glad I got mine months ago.

Saw detective mode batman at walgreens. Now they can peg warm with the three in detective mode batman's on that peg.
