Anyone need a Steve Rogers or US Agent for customs? My Walmart still has those clearanced for $5.00 each.

As was already mentioned, technically Pyslocke could be considered a villain, either as Lady Mandarin or as Revanche/Kwannon (the Asian body that Betsy now inhabits).

And if heroes-turned-villains or villains-turned heroes also count in our female villain tally, then Rogue should be listed as well as Sue Storm (for her Malice persona).

Yeah, I really wanted to help you out man. I would have used the sub to read comics to my son - he loves Avenging Spider-Man. I'm not a huge Doom fan, although I don't hate him either. I have the FF Doom from the 2 pack and a single carded Doom already, so I don't really need that one even though he does come with the gauntlet. It would have been cool if I had been able to get it for you...

I so want that FF Spidey! I actually passed up a new Hulk and red/blue Spidey today at my local Target (about 20 minutes ago). The Spidey had screwed up paint on his eyes, and the Hulk had a jacked up card. So I guess they got Wave 18, and the scalpers snatched them all except for the 2 fugly ones.

lol :P, i got lucky on the ff spidey on ebay for 17. i woulda missed out if it wasnt for 1andonly giving me the heads up on him.

There's some debate on Sue being malice at all- there's a non-copoeral entity called malice that took over Polaris the exact same way and may have been working with/for the Psycho Man to turn Sue evil.

Or Chris Claremont just ripped off Byrne's idea bigtime. Whichever.

Black Widow was originally a villianess as well.

Eh, that's why I don't really consider those temporally "turned bad" situations. If we got technical with it, pretty much every hero has been "turned bad" at least once.

Has anyone successfully gotten Beast to stand on one hand? He's like that on the back of the card, right? Or I could be mistaken.

Jason Abbadon · 08-22-2012, 02:20 PM

Quakehold will let him do that- no problem.

WoRkAh0LiC · 08-22-2012, 02:21 PM

Hey guys, I just updated my BST with the IM/Mandarin 2 packs. Picked 2 of them up today at my local Target. They had a 3rd, but the packaging was jacked up. I've also got 3 of the Juggernaut/Colossus comic 2-packs as well. If anyone's interested, let me know. As far as trades go, my Want list is not huge. HOWEVER, I know there are other things that I want that I just can't think of right now. I'm willing to take a look at your BST to see if there's anything I might want in trade for stuff on my list.

And now, back to the thread....

Dude, I am opening that thing UP!

I respect all of my collector friends and the various methods to their madness but if I'm going to keep a vehicle MoC, I may as well just get an empty box (unless keeping it as an investment). Just my thoughts.

It's Schrodinger's cat, bro. Until you open the box, you can assume that it has perfect paint apps and mint parts OR crappy apps and missing parts

I kid of course. I have a good size MOC collection but its all window boxes and single-card stuff (and SDCC exclusives). The non-window box stuff I open right up!
