Hey, at least it's only 4 figures.

That is true, it'd definitely be easier to complete Lobo price-wise than it would be to complete any Marvel BAF. Maybe secondary market prices for him won't be so bad given how few figures are needed.

Ketchuuuuuuuup

Yeah the ketchup guy is fun but that Whataburger is the real pick up of the post.

Brownfinger · 12-27-2018, 08:39 PM

Testify!
Been all over, still my favorite.

As fast food goes I'd say they're great (my personal pick for best) but since they started in Texas in the '50s they haven't made huge efforts to go across the country but they have expanded to some other southern states. There aren't many locations in Florida but there are some up near the top of the state (like Tallahasee and Jacksonville), don't know where in Florida you are so that might be too much of a drive for burgers.

too far from me. one of the best burger places down here is Shake Shack, that place is superb. i also heard about In-out burger, heard it was great

SideNote: the graphic on my new miles Morales shirt was crooked, company said they will send me a new one for free.

It’s a debate that has come up here before, In-N-Out vs. Whataburger. For my tastes, In-N-Out burgers are kinda small and dry, but they’re also cheaper so it feels like you get what you pay for. Their shakes are good. Whataburger’s menu has substantially more variety, and their honey butter sauce also goes well with just about all of the primary breakfast foods. For my money, I’ll take Whataburger. I know that they’ve branched out far in the south, but I’m not sure how far. Gotta stay lean, so I don’t get to indulge as often as I’d like.
Could have sworn we had Shake Shack around here, but maybe not. I’d love to try it, either way.

En Sabah Nerd · 12-28-2018, 03:15 PM

I've heard great things about Shake Shack, to the point that I've seen arguments that it isn't fast food. If I ever ate at a Shake Shack it was too long ago for me to make a fair judgment.

@Tomax: nice of them to replace the shirt.

If you are going to discuss regional Burger places, add Culver's to the list. They cook the burgers in butter and have daily custard specials. Wish they would come to NOVA.

Man i love culvers. Their double bacon cheese butter burger is the shiznit! Though i do miss carls jr and their double western bacon cheese burger.

Zorn88 · 12-28-2018, 09:28 PM

Check your Target's ya'll. Sweet clearances happening on ML, Transformers, and some Lego's. I could have spent a ton today, but had to restrain myself. I did find five Ross/Killmonger two packs neatly stocked in the Lego section next to some other out of place items, so I had a hunch it was on clearance (it didn't have a sticker like everything else). Low and behold, when I scanned it, it was 20 bucks. Couldn't pass that up.

Brownfinger · 12-28-2018, 10:26 PM

Someone cut up my credit cards so that I can stop buying dumb, adorable shit.

Okay, I just looked them up and was surprised to find that not only do we have those here, but there’s one somewhat near the airport I’ll be at next week.

bought all 3 legends at a local Wal-Mart for $7 each and got the steelbook version of Leon: The Professional blu-ray for only $15!!

Thanks for the heads up. I'm gonna check mine but their selection is always so picked clean through. I bet they'll have Dazzler, either Shatterstar or Sunfire, and maybe one Old Man Logan.

redfox · 12-30-2018, 09:55 PM

Picked these up from GameStop. Looks like most stores are getting a single release of the Dora Milaje figure before the full M'Baku wave hits. As chance would have it, they were having a BOGO deal with the clearance selection so I picked up the Nakia & Namor figures.

I have only eaten at Culver's 4 times. They are amazing.

JCarterVA · 12-31-2018, 12:52 PM

Down in VA Beach for a few days with my Girlfriend. Went to Toymeister and picked up a Marvel Select Ultron and a loose 2006 Emma Frost. Lot of cool stuff in the store. My Friend's son picked up 2 Star Wars Lego sets he never found. Kid has a crazy Star Wars Lego collection. Found Bossk and IG88 Black Archive series ar Target. Canceled my Pre-order on-line.

Kuma Style · 12-31-2018, 02:03 PM

Last toys of the year.

Bearjew · 12-31-2018, 04:27 PM

I got The Thing today at Rite Aid. I was just happy to find him and then he rang up as $10. Had Magik too but I passed.

redfox · 12-31-2018, 04:41 PM

Last Haul of 2018. Looking forward to more in 2019!!

lordbest · 01-01-2019, 06:36 PM

Pretty good start to collecting for 2019.
