Still need that ARk_orig Batman though..soon..

Deathstorm is there because i have every Firestorm/Firestorm related figure made...so i needed to add him...

i can't seem to find the right nightwing for my shelves.... i had the same discussion with another member here, IDK i just think every 6 or 7 inch version of him available has had just horrible hair styling or his face looks goofy....

as for your son of batman figures... they aren't bad. that damian is probably the closet looking figure that looks like the comic version IMO

This Nightwing...i liked cause he looked beefier..like he was an actual grown man next to the younger "Robins"..though yeah..not perfect by a long shot..
And no..the Batman figs are not bad...But up close...they weren't quite what i expected..

that display is badass!

snake5289 · 07-15-2015, 08:12 PM

That's a lot of Firestorm. I'll admit I'm not too familiar with the character but that is an awesome set-up sir.

since i had a slow day with the comics this week, my LCS happen to have a few little things that caught my eye. so i happily jumped on them.

not pictured was a second harley quinn that i bought for my girlfriend.

bumblebree · 07-15-2015, 10:37 PM

@DarkToyLord: We kept telling the peeps over by the Bluefin booth that we want the Mexican Goku. They just laugh at us.

@donmeca2020: was there all 4 days. I got my Hasbro stash on a Friday. Lines were crazy, but they died down around 4pm. And by Saturday, lines wasn't as crowded and they let people in by 3pm.

Everyone whose expecting to buy something from HTS in a few weeks would not be disappointed. Took this photo around 4pm Sunday. An hour away from closing.

Dr Strange and Magic sold out Saturday, the Storm Trooper sold out Thursday and Ant Man sold out Friday.

So you think they will be available on HTS or that they will be out?

yeah, they're pretty awesome looking, i keep passing on them when i see them in my local comic shops though because of their lack of ankle articulation. i may just have to get over it and grab them before they're gone.

Thank ya both...
I've thought about doing a similar collection for two other characters...
Captain Marvel (SHAZAM) and Juggernaut......

Yup...just saw that New Icon earlier this week and of course got excited...This is one of my fav "sub-collections"..and it was fun tracking them all down.
..and I'd buy an elemental figure of course....Hell I'd even go for the TV version of him from the Flash...
He actually used to be my favorite character way back in the day.
Didn't care for his last comic where he was split into two...don't even know if that is still running.
He's a character i wish someone like Bendis could get ahold of...and really make him major...flesh him out..

I posted a picture like this the other day, but this time I added some "effects" to it. Even after 35 years the General still runs as good as ever.

Yeah, I expect a figure of him from Flash/Legends of Tomorrow by next spring. With him and Atom not Having figures announced at SDCC , I expect they are waiting to put them in a line for the new show.

And yeah, that last Firestorm comic run just fell apart. I agree that a good writer is needed to bring Firestorm back to the spotlight. Last I saw him was in the Futures End story last year.

Awesome thank you for this. Funny that the Ant-Man sold out...and not the other set. Even better that the TF still plenty in stock...and it looks like they really limited the quantities to people there. Would you say the HTS booth has gotten better regarding selling they're exclusives? Yeesh did the math for the stuff I want $500...sigh....

Should hopefully be available on HTS, I'm wondering if they made loads of these figures, since this is the first time that they've announced it on their website. Hopefully we'll be able to get the ones we want and that the site doesn't crash like crazy.

What separates the exclusive Devastator from its retail counterpart?

Chrome and better paint apps.

How do I do this properly? I'm only on my phone for now.

bumblebree · 07-16-2015, 12:10 PM

Hasbro usually stamps the back of the badge to indicate the limit of items you've bought during the Con, which limits anyone from buying multiple items. Last Sunday, a few hours before closing, they were letting people buy extras who already bought stuff days before.

With regards to the items they may still have, I'm definitely sure that the storm troopers and ant-man are short stocked. The rest maybe due to high prices, that's why no one bought them as much, or they've increased their inventory and over estimated the demand.

You did everything correct you just want to post the BBCode from imgur.

I like your sheets!

That Spidey is one of maybe 2 or 3 SDCC Marvel 3.75 that I do not own!
