I just finished re-uploading the pics I've taken through the last week, everything else will have to be restored as needed. For the continuity of the threads we have to get over it and move on.

Found these at toysru,7.99 each. Nice to have the correct scale for these finally.

Easier said than....no wait..it actually is easy....

I saw the new 3 DBZ Figures from whomever the hell makes them.
They look decent. Decent enough enough for a 3rd of the price.
But too similar to actually make the purchase. Will probably def buy ones they release that have no Figuarts counterpart.

I just use Imgur. Never had a problem.

So I ended up getting these today at Denver Comic Con (and Crash Bandicoot). OH, and I learned that Neal Adams is a complete jerkface.

Also, a close up scan of the Weird Al picture:

Well he went off on a guy for just looking through his art prints took quickly and then he got mad when I disagreed with his page in Odyssey where Batman outright shoots Sensei in the chest with a magnum as he thought it was the coolest thing to ever have Batman do. Then there is the fact that he is charging $30 to autograph one of YOUR books. The dude still thinks this is 1970 where he is the hottest artist on the market.

Shit, He must have some type of Ego problem and I gotta agree with you on Batman I like it better when he doesn't Shoot people with guns. That's kinda taking the easy way out and lazy writing. Also Why the hell is he even charging anyone to signed Your own books? That seems like it should be free. Like you said he probably still thinks he is the hottest shit in comics right now. Which isn't true. I don't know where some of these so called "Famous" people get off.

Yeah, Neal Adams is pretty notorious for being a jerk. My interaction with him didn't go too well either. He's abrasive, opinionated and has a tendency to talk down to people. In his case, better to admire from afar.

OGTrilogy · 07-01-2017, 09:33 AM

Ha! Ha! Neil Adams has been to the local Con here in KC the last several years. He was charging $20 per signature the first year. I took a stack of books for him to sign and when I found out how much he charged, I just bought a signed Green Arrow print instead for the same price. He seemed more interested in selling prints than anything else. He wasn't rude to me though.

I bought a really nice hardcover copy of the Superman Vs. Muhammad Ali book along with a few other things from Neal Adams official website several years ago. The books were all cover price + shopping and they were all signed. That's not a bad deal all things considered.

"El diablo que hace trofeos de los hombres..."

My Jungle Demon arrived from the NECA Ebay store, and thankfully, he is WAY BETTER than the previous Ultimate Predator Jungle Hunter that just came out. Nothing frozen, bent or broken, and no awful smell, although I think that might have more to due with the lesser paint paint apps and washes than anything else, since a large majority of the figure is just clear plastic. I really love the deco on him, and think he looks great, although the lighting around the eyes looked a little heavy handed on mine.

I've had Flickr for years, but have never actually used it to upload or share anything before. A little trickier than Photobucket, but hopefully it won't be too cumbersome in the future. If anyone knows how to get imbed links while using the app to share, so I don't always have to be on my PC when posting pics, you would be my hero!

Weird Al....next to megadeth my all time favorite artist. Anyone who can make a robin thickehead song enjoyable is a God.

My camera and phone have both stopped working, so not crappy photo but yesterday I got:
The Black Series 6" Lando Calrissian wave
DCC DC TV Supergirl and Martian Manhunter
Figma Girls und Panzer Maho and Erika two-pack.

It was a good day.

Very cool. I love Phil Lamarr's work and I've heard he's a cool guy.

I'll always remember him as marvin.

The new Spider-Man wave was actually on sale at my local grocery store ($15 instead of $20) so I picked up Vulture, movie Spidey, and Beetle. The only other one they had was Tombstone and I passed on him.

Samurai Jack first and foremost for me. After that it's GL/John Stewart.
