A lot of people have more money than brains.

A fool and their money are easily parted.

You're better off just buying Hot Toy's Captain America. Which is the same price. And a way better figure.

If that didn't just put into perspective how much scalpers are trying to rape collectors for a cheap figure that is cheaper to commission a custom for (which will end up better anyway), than by all means do it.

NerfTW · 09-07-2011, 08:40 AM

A lot of people seem to be missing the part where he's STILL AVAILABLE WITH A SUBSCRIPTION.

There's no reason to be buying him from any third party. And certainly not for $60. Yes, it's the OP's money, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be pointing out the much cheaper alternative.

Even if you already have a subscription...its still cheaper to cancel your old one and just resubscribe if you really must own this figure.

Cobra · 09-07-2011, 09:06 AM

I would not pay that for it. Ether have a custom done or sign up for the subscription. I'm really thinking about making a custom because of the price.

I think this thread was started to watch us argue over something stupid, and it worked. Damnit.

Exactly, trolling at its finest. They are still found on eBay for around 100 bucks. I dont know why everyone is wasting their time on this thread...including me.

Damnit. Well I'll make some use of this thread.... I have a set of the Giant X-Men that I don't need and I can't return it to the store, so if someone wants them (they're loose though, so no box) I'll hook you up with a cheap price. Like, $20 shipped.

Damn wished you would have said something like maybe a week or two earlier. I would have been all over that

snakeeyes566 · 09-07-2011, 02:20 PM

I am serious. Is the sub really worth it? How long would he take to arrive? What's the process? Plz answer .

Your asking if the Subscription(a $60.00 option) is worth it over a $160.00 Ebay option????

Boba Fettuccini · 09-07-2011, 05:08 PM

If you're so impatient you can't wait through the 8 week processing time and need to pay $160 to get it now... you have some issues.

Let's feed into this a little more I guess.....Go ahead and pay $160 if you cant be patient just like those that'll pay 60-100 for a figure from the next MU wave when they can wait a couple of weeks to a month to find it for much cheaper.

brianregan09 · 09-08-2011, 05:17 AM

i'd sell you mine for that price lol

CLASSIFIED · 09-08-2011, 06:52 AM

I think he should just buy it and get it over with.

If he has the money, why not?

The person selling it needs to eat too, right?

Boba Fettuccini · 09-08-2011, 01:53 PM

If the person selling action figures on ebay is depending on that for food, they need to re-organize their priorities and get a real job. Seriously.

3 3/4"NYCC MARVEL UNIVERSE X-FORCE ARCHANGEL EXCLUSIVE | eBay

The bid is at like $25 right now, one day left.

I agree with this... if you are rich and can afford it then better to buy one that you can tell before hand if it is absolutely in MOC perfection with perfect paint apps. You never know when Hasbro/Marvel is in charge of sending you one.

But then... if you could afford it you would probably already have a MU X-Force Archangel by now. LOL. So... taking this into account... I would probably hold off on pulling the trigger on this one.

What good is an Archangel with no wings?

Sure if someone already has the normal version they could give them to him but then they'll have a naked regular version.

Hahaha, awesome. All this talk of selling Archangel for so much makes me think that mine might be made out of gold.
