I need a friend like that!

I guess I should also note that he is a huge collector and once he got into Statues and Busts he didn't feel the same sense of attachment to his toys.

He has one of the biggest statue collections I have ever seen. Some of my favorites were both the X-Force and Uncanny X-Men sets that kotobukiya made a few years ago and also so many sideshow mixed media statues.

He actually ordered 20 Detolfs that should be showing up today, I can't wait to help him fill them! That was also the reason he insisted I take what I want because he knows he needs room for all of his new cases.

Right on, my Samus showed up today as well.

No sunlight left to take pretty light box photos, though. Tomorrow, probably.

She's cool, but I would have easily traded the space marine helmet and the boy hair for a Metroid or something.

PLEASE tell me where you got that Figma Hulk??!

Is it the one on Amazon, going for $87.95??

Riddick · 02-08-2017, 04:58 AM

The 87.95 one is the same Figma Hulk but I went and paid like 100 or so for mine because of free two day Prime Shipping. I didn't care to pay the extra because the other ones are from Japan and usually figures from Japan take 3 weeks or more to arrive to my house so the extra 10+ was worth it.

It's a fantastic figure and besides my two Hot Toy Hulks, it's the best Hulk I've ever owned. Blows everything else out of the water other than the Hot Toys. It feels so heavy and the plastic it's made of feels so expensive and the paint job just pops and looks quite realistic. Articulation is great but not as good as figuarts but the sculpt blows away my figuarts one... so it's still a win.

Also note. If you do decide to grab this figure from Amazon. avoid the one that is going for 80.00+ 5.17 shipping. That person is selling a bootleg figuarts that comes in a Figma box. For some reason alot of the new Figuarts bootleg Hulks are being shipped in bootleg Figma boxes. Those things go for 18.99 and he's selling it for the price of an original Figma Hulk. I tried reporting him but Amazon apparently doesn't care. I feel sorry for the poor bastard that buys that and realizes not only is it a figuarts but it's also a crappy bootleg. Apparently he runs a bookstore, so it's possible someone sold that to him and tricked him into thinking it's the real deal. Or, he's just a scum bag trying to get one over on someone and that pisses me off.

erastop · 02-08-2017, 09:59 AM

Ok, thanks! I wanted to make sure the one on Amazon for that price was NOT a Knock-off. I JUST placed my order for it!
I didn't pay the extra $10 for faster shipping, I'll just wait the 3 weeks or so it said it would take. I figured I've already waited this long..

I don't disagree. This Metroid makes a decent enough stand-in, though?

Yeah, that would be great if I could find some of those god damned Metroids. TRU is the only store around me that carries the current Nintendo figures and they haven't gotten a new case in since Nov. They have had Toad, Goombas, Shy Guy, and Squids sitting on the pegs since then.

Bo Ttef · 02-08-2017, 10:32 PM

Marvel Select Destroyer came in today! My Thor figures can finally get their own shelf!

Now to see if I can find the Wrecking crew for cheap- Ha!

I picked up 2 Metroids at my TRU last week,shipments are wonky, I must admit!

LapuLapu · 02-09-2017, 11:50 AM

After missing picking up Angela Marvel Legends in retail (Walgreens) went to TRU and found these two awesome still

decepticon_mark · 02-09-2017, 12:24 PM

My building set from Extreme Sets came in today. This thing is massive. Add the Deranged Alley and it's like a whole city block.

Riddick · 02-09-2017, 01:02 PM

Since Figma Hulk came out, I decided to buy the entire Avengers team from Amazon.

Check the CHECKOUTS at Wal-Marts. Usually on the lowest shelf in random lanes. I see the little small Nintendo figures all the time. Always at the checkouts , never in toys.

lordbest · 02-10-2017, 02:09 AM

I pre-ordered DC Icons on February 14th 2016, so four days short of a year waiting for this. So thrilled to have it at last. I'm a lot more impressed with the 12" ML figures now that I have them in hand than I expected, particularly the Captain America. Batgirl & Oracle are nice too, but somewhat overshadowed by the perfection that is Icons Batgirl of Burnside.

I tried that. Only one of my 3 local Walmarts has them and the lanes contain 13 Yoshis of different colors, 8 orange squids, 29 Luigis, 17 Marios of different colors, and 3 shiny Samuses.

Bo Ttef · 02-10-2017, 12:17 PM

picked up the final Master (Teela) I needed to complete the Heroes!

Now I just need to proper paints and I'll have a Faker ready to join the Evil Warriors!
