To be honest, I really like the costume, and I've been reading up on the character, and his different abilities seem cool to me. I've also neeeeeeeeeeeeever had a variant figure, so I thought that'd be cool. I honestly want both versions, the more teenage looking mold is enticing to me.

Makes sense to me, bud. Hang tight. In a couple of months when these hit retails you can troll around this site and someone *cough* LM *cough* peteparker *cough* fancypants *cough* will have phenomenal deals on them. 25% of my enormous loose collection is probably courtesy of the 'ark.

Since my mom won't let me use her credit card to buy this, and I used my left over Amazon gift card money from my birthday on Beast, I figured I'd pass this on to you guys.

Who needs teeth when you have toys, right?

I like amazon. cheaper priced items, reviews, no tax (for now that is), and free 2 day shipping (for prime members). I even bought a TV on there. Quote:

They are always trying to get my bank info, and that's just not ok by me, and eBay is ripe with scalpers trying to fuck me out of my money. Amazon on the other hand just has my credit card info, which offers me a layer of protection to my hard earned money, doesn't barrage me with emails for me to give them my bank account info, and doesn't charge me an extra fee because I won't give them my account info. Amazon has scalpers like anywhere else, however there are a lot of more than fair prices on stuff that goes for double or tripple on the bay. Plus if it's sold by amazon or a trusted agent thereof the offer free shipping on orders of 25 bucks or more. I'd tell eBay and PayPal to go suck a bag of dicks if it wasn't for my collecting insanity. Which is what amazon has told pay pal to do Im sure since they don't allow PayPal to be used on their site. Look at the companies side by side and amazon beats the bay/PayPal like a red headed step child every time. Just my two cents, I've had lots of problems with eBay and PayPal in the past, and nothing but asspain in trying to fix it, I've only had one incident of a product not being right from amazon, and all it took was one less than ten minute phone call to make it right. That's from more than 10 years of experience dealing with both.

Guys I need some help...
today is the first time I have ever thought about selling off my MU... the hobby is distracting me right now...and I think it might be time to part ways...as I know some have gotten out recently, I am kinda just done...I mean I spend so much time hunting, and trying to complete my "needs", but I find it overly dissatisfying lately... what with the 6 month drought, the new wave hitting "pre-order only", higher than normal prices around the scene (everywhere), and hasbro failed promise of finding these easier...maybe I just need to give it more time... But I am just exhausted with the rat race of getting the new figures... can anyone talk me into or out of doing this? Please dont take this the wrong way of me "complaining", or "ranting"...I need some solid toy-lovin advice... I dont know, maybe I just had a terrible day at work, but what do you guys think?

To save space I'm not going to quote it all.
I'm relatively new to collecting MU, but I can understand everyone being frustrated. between wanting to preorder things but not being able to, waiting for retail, having high prices, bad distribution, the long wait, and watching everyone else get new stuff while we're still waiting. But the way I see it, as long as you're not digging yourself into homelessness or not talking to anyone in real life just for collecting, I don't see how it's a bad thing. Sure you could cut out some hunting time, to fix the feeling that you're devoting too much time to it, but I think it might just be your bad day bro. I think if you still feel this way in a month or two, at least until new stuff hits retail, then you should do what you feel is right. The way I see it, if collecting isn't hurting you financially or socially, then collect on. Keep your head up man, you were one of the first arkers to really be nice to me, and I appreciate that a whole lot. I hope I can return the favor one day. *Insert brofist here* ![]()

And as far as hunting, im officially over it. Preorder the cases when then go up on sites, trade the extras, and enjoy what you have inbetween waves. You gotta ask yourself, is the juice worth the squeeze, and I'd say it is. Waiting is frustrating, seeing rows and rows of pegwarmers or empty pegs is frustrating. But you don't want that to be the reason you quit. Patience is a virtue, and getting the stuff, however long it takes, feels great. That's all I have to say about that.

as far as the other lines go, I cant collect another line, I have tried to do legends 3 times! I am not joking I have bought the ROML series one twice...and then sold them both times... I dont know, I have to get in the start or I just lose myself trying to get the ones I "want"...frustrating as hell, the cycle continues...

Don't sell. Unless MU gets like to the point where it's comparable to the ML shit. i.e. no one's carrying them, scalper gold, older figs are stupidly expensive and the reason some have the upcoming waves already is cuz they jumped on the preordering bandwagon. We'll obviously see something at retail. Watch when we have a dryspell in a few months, we're gonna hate going to the store and seeing the same pegs with Beasts, Ult. Spideys and Beta Ray Bills.
