Only completed a few C&C figures/waves. Sometimes I get lucky, like tonight, when I found the entire Bane wave and finally saw Azbats for the 1st time too!

Wish the neck wasn't so high and the arms had more range of motion, but overall I like it a lot. With Creeper, Mercury and Robin having the best articulation of the wave, I hope we see a Dickbats using a similar slender buck with the high amount of articulation those 3 have.

Glad you found him. I can't wait to find an Azbats myself. It will be the first DCUC figure I've ever bought.

No luck finding any of the new wave at TRU today, but I did score an older fig I missed out on. Now I can do Symbiote's finger sniff pose

He's awesome. I bought him just for the Bane limb, but ended up keeping him because of his awesomeness. And he's surprisingly poseable considering all of that upper body weight.

Where did you find them?

Uh, find what?

I'm still on the hunt for DCUC Azbats and the new MU 2-packs, if that's what you're asking about. I personally haven't found any of them yet.

Sorry I meant to quote Mastersock..LOl

trebleshot · 05-05-2011, 02:10 PM

No problem. I thought so, but I wasn't sure.

Anyway, time to get caught up again:

Legends Megatron

Mega Bloks Marvel Minifigs (only missing Black Spidey from wave 1)

Closeup of War Machine Minifig. Identical to the one that came in the Copter set, minus the arm guns that came in the set.

Shadow Tracker. Or my version of a G.I.Joe-verse Predator.

(Couldn't resist with that last pic)

Man, I still love Recondo so much. He's a god damn sexual tyrannosaurus.

I just started picking up the Mega Bloks Minfigs. The Battle Damaged Iron Man I got had two left arms, but I got two of them plus the Green Goblin and two Venoms, so I was pretty happy with them. They are very cool figs.

Azrael Batman is sick, I just wish Bane would have been larger.

Awesome finds everybody, wish I was able to find/get my hands on a large frost giant or black goliath, or the new comic 2 packs... time will come. I was able to secure a couple well needed items to add to my collection. A local comic shop had gotten in SDCC items, the MU Thor, Cap and spiderman, I picked up Thor today, and will have to leave the other 2 for another day/paycheck. I got him for $29.99 which is compairable to online prices. he's mint on card, with box and even still has the plastic he came in! I was in talks with a online seller from Ontario, I got IM2 3packs of concept armour, and proving ground series comin my way next week, got both with shipping for $40 in, was pretty pleased, as right now on ebay, they're $28 and up each. I hesitate to open them, but I probably will. I think I may leave my SDCC thor in the package. same with cap when I get him.

Hey treble where did you find those mini-figures?

Yeah, I originally just got him for the Jesse Ventura likeness, but he's a really cool figure in his own right. And the detail on his Tiki mask (not pictured) is outstanding.

So far, I've been really lucky and got all the right parts every time. They are awesome little guys and surprisingly posable. I initially got a few just to get War Machine, but I've enjoyed them all. I also love that there is a proper scale (Venom is by far the biggest).

I've had four dupes so far (still hunting for Black Spidey), but I've been able to give those away to friends at work. Not sure if I want to keep trying, but it's an OCD thing and having a full set of wave one is one MF of a temptress right now.

So far, the only place I've been able to find them is at Walmart in the Mega Bloks section, along with the Halo minifigs. But only certain Walmarts seem to be carrying them, for some reason. The insert that comes with them says there'll be a wave 2 coming, but no pics.

Oh and for those who can't tell by my craptacular pic, wave 1 consists of commons Iron Man MK VI, Iron Man MK VI (Battle Damaged), Venom and "Armored" Spider-Man, rares War Machine and Black Spider-Man, and ultra-rare Green Goblin (w/glider).

The funniest part is if you have any experience with blind-bagged toys or CCG packs, you should be able to find Green Goblin pretty quickly since his glider is a completely unique piece.

I got this print a few weeks ago at the NJCC, but just got around to getting it framed this weekend, so I just got the frame

This picture doesn't do the artwork and quality of the print justice. The colors pop so much it's almost like a metallic shine. Very nice.

MasterSock · 05-11-2011, 05:02 PM

Just got the x-men box set

pud333 · 05-11-2011, 07:43 PM

Picked this up from TRU as well. Looks like there are two versions. The regular, and "bamfing" version. At my local TRU, here in Vancouver, BC. Canada, I saw three packs, all the same "bamfing" version. On top of that, there's a 20% off sale right now on all Marvel toys and playsets here, so that was a bonus!

MasterSock · 05-11-2011, 08:01 PM

Their were about 30 x-men box set at my toy r us and none of them were variant

lucky pick man!
