Well, they did put limits on much someone can buy, and not just in a day but for the whole Con. A number, such as the H.I.S.S. Tank were limit one yet guys have 5 or more. Symbiote and I ran into a scalper that said he 15 X-Force packs, which were limit 4. Pretty sure he was paying people in line a few bucks to buy them for him. They find ways even if they don't have connections.

your point...bro?because mine was simply "your friend" called me out and jumped all over me for complaining about scalping and then does the same thing,a bit hypocritical if you ask me,anyway,whatever.

Just came back from TRU and they have 3.75 marvel figures for $7.00 today and tomorrow , picked up a couple of avenger Skrulls.
And waiting news from my buddy at the con , getting nervous as I havent heard from him , just wanted the MOE pack.

WalkingDeadpool · 07-13-2012, 06:24 PM

Like Lord marvel and a few others have said,you have to pay to play....The 4 things my buddy picked up for me I'm paying him 200...And mind you he's only paying about 130...But he's not even a toy collector,and I don't mind paying th extra for him standing in the line for hours....

Nah, that was a Marvel Legends pack. I think it's the one that came with the Stealth Armor Iron Man.

Why did you randomly say "FYI" and then link two articles completely unrelated to this topic?

I'm more amazed that you went the "everyone that likes what I don't are sheep" route.

Maria Hill came with the yellow and red Iron Man if I remember correctly.

todays haul, if any one needs a translucent arms electro or mole man let me know.

Pros From Dover · 07-13-2012, 06:37 PM

I didn't know they MADE a translucent arm Electro....

Ninjinister · 07-13-2012, 06:38 PM

Speaking of Mole Man, does anyone have his cape? Mine looks so plain without one.

If not, I'll just have to fashion one myself.

yeah its the 3rd variant, regular matte then glossy and finally translucent arms.

Pros From Dover · 07-13-2012, 06:49 PM

Huh. That's pretty cool. IMHO, that's the way he should have come to begin with. Might not have rotted on the pegs if he'd have looked cool to begin with.

fallen69lee04 · 07-13-2012, 06:51 PM

i agree. instead of doing just paint variations right! lol

tk421 · 07-13-2012, 07:03 PM

Found another widow today. That's 4 in the last week.

Two are potentially going to a fellow arker, but this one is up for sale/trade. PM me.

What I would do is buy up all the pre-sale, midnight showing tickets to the Dark Knight Rises and stand outside the theater, selling the tickets at 2, then maybe 3 times the face value.

I'd do this, just to see how long it takes for the throngs of indignant nerds to round up a bona-fide, torches and pitchforks mob and murder me. I can't imagine it would take very long.

Now I that brings me to my point, when are we gonna tar and feather these motherfuckers?

Why can't I just skip the middle man? Especially when the middle man is Comic Con (Con is right there in the title) and Wal Mart.

But nooooo. That would be too fair and sensible and profitable.

It's just every once in a while, girl does me wrong. Come home from work real late an she ain't home. And I wonder, "Damn, baby why dontcha treat me right, baby?"

An entertaining read! You might be my new favorite poster. Jason Abbadon previously held that title.

Post moar.
