I've got a spicy story about USPS. For the record, I hate USPS. ok so I'm tracking my packages which it's 3 of them. I'm a avid buyer and and seller so I know the ropes on tracking. Normally they send out a "out for delivery" message but this time they didn't. Then I said something bad is gonna happen. They send out a "exception" message and says they couldnt get to my location? Which is a lie cause it's an open property for decades. But yet they delierved my bills. Then the next day, it says "delayed". Long story short, they couldnt get the package on time and put any excuse then they put delayed to try and save face,SMH. Rant over.

my Sports figure finally came today

Carlos Valderrama (Soccer Legend) this is the only figure they made of him. it has 4 Points of Articu. so its kind of like a hybrid figure: half static and half action fig. its made by Bandai (4")

Black Arbor · 03-12-2018, 07:19 PM

Not a toy but I got a photo with Weird Al! (He's not really angry, we were just goofing around haha)

donmeca2020 · 03-12-2018, 07:23 PM

It happens on Reddit way more often than you'd think, people trying to farm karma like it's a cure for world hunger

The red out makes it funnier, it looks like weird al’s disgusted by the red shit on your face. That’s awesome though man, we’re you at an event, or was he just eating dinner? I know you say he was fooling around, but he looks like he’s saying “seriously dude fuck off im tryin to eat here!”

It was actually at his new tour! I got to meet him with the VIP pass and when I saw everyone doing a smiling photo I was like "man, I gotta ask him if we can do a silly one" and I asked him to look at me like he wanted to kill me (my exact words!)

I KEED, I keed. Big fan of Mr. Met, dude's got moxie. Much respect to that fanbase, you guys have been through the ringer. Articulated sports figures are such a precious rarity, too. I love it. I think the only ones I own are Fox Sports football and baseball robots? Those Fox Sports baseball robots are the coolest.

I don't know if you know the Table Museum line from Figma? I have their Thinker, David, Venus and the angels. There are also others in this line. Not exactly historic figures, but still great fun to pose.

I have seen those before, actually! It's a step in the right direction, that's the sort of design quality I'm talking about. Figmas get really pricey, to my boundless freaking consternation. So I'm pretty choosy on what I get from them. I like way too many things, it's problematic.
Even if they're not up to loftier standards, those Accoutrements figures are fantastic little novelties to look at. Love the waitress photos!

Ebay has added a new feature which was not announced, to my knowledge. 2 hidden links at the bottom of your purchase information. One is a box you can leave notes in. I have taken to using this box to aggressively criticize USPS tracking blunders. It stays there forever.

CCC.

Picked up the Justice League steelbook at Best Buy. Jim Lee's art on the cover is amazing as always.

Tim · 03-13-2018, 11:08 AM

^similar to this guy but I picked up Justice League the Target Exclusive one.

Zorn88 · 03-13-2018, 03:43 PM

^ Same.

Jim Lee is my favorite artist, but I don't believe it belongs as a cinematic cover.
