Thank goodness I didn't take out a mortgage on this one, and that I could care less about MOC...) Thank you to all of the people who contributed to my Deadpool knock off thread, which helped steer me in the right direction!

Love this DeadPool. I picked up this X-force box set as well from Ross. I wish thye had more than the one set but glad to pick it up.

Do you know how much Hasbro would make if they had the building block license for Star Wars as well as the action figure license?

I think Lego is doing just fine, especially since SW collectors are forced to buy the sets or go to Ebay if they want any of the minifigs. Either way, Lego's still making money from it. Hell, I bought the Millennium Falcon Mini Fighters set just so I could have the new Han minifig.

Personally, I wish Mega Bloks had the SW license, as far as minifigs are concerned. Imagine Luke or Vader with COD-level articulation and body proportions!

My guess is it's some kind of legal loophole.

[kylactus]

yeah you just cant make money on licensed property, for instance I could make mickey mouse statues and give them away all day long, as soon as I sell one I'm in violation.

I bought part of a local guy's collection, which included some random items, 100 postcard set of James Bond, Hardcover Batman Movie Trilogy book, Marvel Select Spiderman.. mainly for the base, and *for sale, 4 loose DC Superman Man of Steel: Movie Master figures: Faora ,Superman, General Zod *missing helmet, and General Zod in shackles, all have bases looking to sell them, or trade perhaps.

Nice find on that Malgus! It's crazy how many people found theirs at odd locations like discount stores and grocery stores

The Tuesday Morning in my area is definitely one of those "feast or famine" stores. 90% of the time, they have absolutely nothing that I'd ever consider buying. But then, on occasion, I'll find something cool. I was able to troop build Rebel Troopers from the SW Vintage series about a year ago, when TM had quite a few for only $4.99.
Then, not long after that, I found the Naboo Starfighter there for about $15, as well as Mattel's awesome Batman & Catwoman Arkham 2-Pack (that I had unbelievably passed on and missed months prior).

Unfortunately, I was there today and the only thing remotely interesting was the Star Trek Mr. Potato Head set, which I convinced myself I didn't need, lol.

First Soundwave, now Jazz ! That's two out of my top three "most wanted" Loyal Subjects TFs! After this run of good luck, I think I'm going to stop while I'm ahead!
Well... maybe...

I got up and went to hit up some yard sales today and scored a big ass box of transformers for 10 bucks. Pretty excited about that until I realized that some of the minicons were missing a couple of pieces here and there, and then I headed to walmart before work and found another Darth Plagueis. All in all, not a bad day.

I caved...




Up to date on walking dead, w/variants...




Got my RDJ and Coulson sculpts from Glassman customs, can't wait to paint them.


Awesome package from Gabriel Iglesias, check him out if you have not heard him.


Finally got my spider gremlin, drop kicked right to my door courtesy of UPS.



Finally, I could not find this movie anywhere, and for good reason- it was never really made on DVD. Went to the Jerky Boy's website and ordered it. Johnny Brennan is Awesome!



There was a spot to have a personalized message so I chose Sol and Johnny did not disappoint!
He actually wrote the whole thing, and more! Cool guy.



If you have not heard the jerky boys and you like to laugh at crude humor (who doesn't?) check them out!

I'm really enjoying him as well. I was mulling over picking up one of the Chinese KO Deadpools on ebay, but after getting some feedback, I opted for the real deal. Since he was the X-Force version, I didn't have to drop all that much for him either. I'm not thrilled with how well he holds his swords, but I was intending for him to go dual smgs all the way anyway, so it's not really a bother! All in all, a pretty good figure...

After checking out a couple of posts in the forums alerting me of the price drop, I headed over to my local TRU today and finally snagged that G.I.Joe EagleHawk I've been wanting for a while now for only 18 bucks!

[LXL_Guy]

These are the 5 comics I picked out right below. The only two I really wanted was the Street Fighter #0 and Hardcover Mouse Guard. Otherwise the other 3 were just filler.



Then I decided to check out the local artists to see what they had to offer. I walked away with two prints. I picked up Zatanna and Wonder Woman for $10 each. The Zatanna one I'm keeping for myself. The Wonder Woman one is for my sister whom couldn't make it since she's out of town. Anyhow, I dropped by Wal-Mart earlier to pick up an 11'' X 14'' frame for my print.





Finally the last item I got on sale. I love Invincible and figured Atom Eve would be great to own.

[cidman911]

Can anybody help me get the Free Comic Book Day Rocket Raccoon and Guardians Of The Galaxy comics?

I wasn't able to get them.

[Kernel]

Happy free comic day! Get out there and support your local comic shops if you still can!

Aww, man. That's brutal.
I'm never getting an Hk-47 Lego minifigure.

Congrats on that Mouse Guard! The owner of the shop where I celebrate FCBD has to raffle those off because there is such a HUGE demand for those.

[Frank Richards]

I wasn't too impressed by the offerings at FCBD this year, BUT a lot of shops didn't celebrate Dark Horse's Hellboy Day (yeah, lol, it was a real thing) a month or so ago, and kept the promotional comic, stickers, etc. for FCBD.
Anyways, I was THRILLED to snag this today:

Got a good price for the SDCC Captain America.

There was more than enough of Mouse Guard at my shop. Must be due to the fact that they placed the books lower on the shelf. Most people were overlooking or didn't care for it.
