I've always liked the bounty hunters. When I was a kid, I had them all hang out in spawn alley at the top of my command center in my star wars room. I thought 4LOM was a dork, so I basically made him a grouchy version of C-3PO

Here are my latest finds for the past few days:

The best part of finding the new Marvel Universe figures was the price I bought them for. It would seem that one of the Super Target employees mistakenly put a clearance tag on the Shadowland Daredevil figure for $2.76, so they wound up giving me the new Ages Of Thunder Thor for the same price.

That's awesome. Anytime I end up getting a sweet deal like that I end up liking the figure so much more. It becomes like a trophy to me.

Ye he does! Man I really wish they made that in a MU instead:P I may be tempted to get it when I see it. But the price on those may make me think twice...How many were there?

Dude if this is a huge scam. We gotta report these guys. Hong Kong isn't known for its truthyness. They steal identities

I resent that!!! I'm from there!! Seriously though they get everything there, fake and real.

I gotta hunt for a Hope now that I see those Legends figures.

From Amiami:

Bandai's DX Chogokin VF-25S renewal version (Ozma Lee custom).

behindthemask · 01-19-2012, 11:44 PM

man $20 isn't a ton of money and we're all finding it easy to spend $10 on a mu, well ML is twice the scale, twice the figure and thus twice the price, plus comes with a baf part. I don't really know if I plan on buying the whole wave or just both IM's, Hope and Steve Rogers.
