Best of luck with your efforts. Hit me up with some info and I'll see what I can do to help.

The weird thing was today, as I was driving to tjmaxx with the intent to take the HOV lane home (having strapped in my newly acquired classic sentinel {which didnt happen}) about how can this hobby benefit others...seriously boba, get at me...

It's just a little darkly ironic.

To be fair.. you have no idea what kind of charitable work or organizations anyone on these boards is involved in. Throwing some kids a couple of 5 dollar figures might be a blip on their giving tree.

I understand where you are going though.

Oh I got that compa, but whether you were trying to be ironic or not, by writing "bad words" you are still a hypocrite. An unimaginitive one at that sine you had to bring yourself down to my level, down here in the gutter, to make your point.

In the interests of not dragging this on any longer since you will self justify until the ends of the earth:

I'm stupid, you're smart. I was wrong, you were right. You're the best, I'm the worst. You're very good-looking, I'm not attractive . . .

That nick fury will make for a great blade custom.

synapse17 · 07-10-2012, 03:25 PM

Gezz, can we all get along. Too much too much...

There's no sense in betting a dead horse. Everyone has had their say. Lets move on...

The Iron man is not a patch on movie spidey for articulation though and does not seem much better than a standard IM2 figure,

Didn't order any Chitauri as Scarlett prefers the look of the older MU Skrulls but they might look cooler in the flesh.

What did you think of the articulation on the I.M Lord M?

Sadisticace1091 · 07-10-2012, 03:31 PM

would anyone say the juggernaut from the spider man 6" series is up to par with 3.75?

shortysben · 07-10-2012, 03:32 PM

LM, can you also let us know how the artic on the chitauri is?

But you're starting to make sense.

Jimmyo · 07-10-2012, 03:39 PM

Yeah I was a little unimpressed after the articulation on Spidey set the bar so high,

I guess limited lateral movement stay true to a man in a metal suit lol

Those ... actually fit in amazingly well with SHEILD. First thought was of 90's neon Joes. I'm happy to be wrong.
