Like the aliens before them, your cats converge on the unsuspecting marines.

It really sucks having cats and fragile little men with tiny little guns and knives in the same location unless you have an impenetrable panic room you display them in.

I keep boxed figs or books and media on the lower shelves and the rest have figs on them. On occasion they might pull up on thet third shelf but for the most part they leave em be. I do, on occasion, bribe them with cat treats if they start to get pawsy,

We got pretty much the same setup but they like to parkour from different pieces of furniture and somehow they're in between 2 expensive plastic artifacts that I would die if they destroyed, just chilling there while I have a vein bulging out of my eye. Nobody can tell me the little monsters don't know what they're doing. When they want food in the middle of the night, they know I can hear the skritch skritch skritch of them slowly sliding a die cast Iron Man to his doom.

Haha! Oh I know. For the most part theyre good about not getting up on the shelves. Scratching my office chair instead of using their scratching post/bigass cat tower thing not so much. And my cat ghost ( the white n grey one ) seems to enjoy knocking my phone and tv remote onto the floor, particularly if one of the other cats is laying on the floor below the end table.

swung by my local target and couldn’t believe they had the entire Dc multiverse lex wave! Especially considering Mattel’s distribution http://magaimg.net/img/7fkw.jpg And I managed to pick all of them up yesterday for http://magaimg.net/img/7fky.jpg easily the best deal I’ve had so far this year. Vixen is for trade if anyone is interested she will be without her bad part though

lordbest · 03-07-2019, 08:22 PM

This took five weeks to get to Australia from Taiwan. Worth it though.

Look who actually did show up today:

Mezco One 12 Jason by scarrviper, on Flickr

Snagged him from amazon Wednesday, arrived today. Very happy with this figure, I can't wait to be able to shoot him outdoors whenever spring gets here.

What do you guys do with them when you leave the house? Girlfriend nkeeos trying to talk me into letting ours roam free but I'm still scared. She collects too so has the same amount of risk of potential destruction. Only one of ours has destroyed something, she likes to chew things. But figures would fall on the floor and I wouldn't notice for days and they'd never bother them. Just paranoid locking them in the bedroom is irratating.

My office/toyroom gets closed when i go out or to bed. Anything in the living room is boxed or carded. The furballs usually sleep on the bed with me so my stuff is safe.

Shame Dc Collectibles let this series fall to the wayside. Definitely will be picking more of these up.

I can’t express the size of this.

They only ever really act up when we're there fortunately, trying to get our attention by knocking stuff on the ground. Occasionally I'll find something on the floor like they ran into a shelf chasing each other or whatnot when we were at work but that is rare. Imho, elaborate cat-proofing often ends up backfiring. For example, we put a strip of packing tape sticky side up across the top of our headboard because one cat would get up there and drive us nuts while we were trying to sleep. My little angel baby gets up there, gets stuck, and flips out, then he's somehow covered in tape around his entire body with 6 feet trailing behind him running all over the place and getting other stuff stuck to him. I guess that was enough of a deterrent since he hasn't been back up there.
