[Tiberius]

I have been debating if I want to add a jacket to Cyclops. Think I would rather just get another one to do that. Decisions Decisions.

[iLegends73]

what figure has a waist high jacket u can use tho? finding jackets for customs is always a hard part for me

[Tiberius]

I got one from a Indiana Jones figure. I was going to use it for Thunderstrike but he isn't going anywhere fast..

[D Day]

So is anyone seening the new wave (Psylocke, Storm etc) at retail? I still haven't even seen the wonderman/quicksilver or DD/BB comic packs at retail. I'm starting to get mad frustrated. And it's not like i'm talking about one or two stores, i'm hitting like 10 stores, walmarts, tru's and targets and I havent seen shit! Anyone else having this problem?

Yo Tiberius, what'd you wind up using for Gambit's legs?

I didn't know Magneto was 90.

By the way, what legs are those? storm shadow's?

Well..maybe not 90...lets see, he was like 12 in 1942 or 1943, and now it's 2012...carry the six...

He's 82

Now it's Marvel so he was once reduced to infanthood and brought back to his 40's give or take, but still, Rogue is what? Pushing 30?

Tiberus, that Gambit surely does rock- now you need to do the wrists- cut out hambit's hands, drill holes and stick in Bullseye hands so he'll have playing cards.

same- no Target or Wal Mart has restocked at all since Christmas...so I may check again this morning....but it's damn frustrating to go there a couple of times a week and find dickall.

Gambit turned out great! I cut off his feet and gave him Joe Crimson twins feet a while back to try and save as much of the lower leg detail as I could. Your use of Maveric's legs looks great.

Yep all of mine look funny and have at least one hand/wrist locked up. I nearly tristed one off trying to free it up.

It's so hard to hear about how many Zombie Vipers people have when I have not seen one or anything new at retail in several weeks. I don't need 20 but 5 would be nice.

the only place ive seen any new figs is comic shops. Even when my shop got in the new wave, they never recieved the DD/BB or QS/WM packs.

I've got pleanty of single drones in my BST, along with 4 Red Hand Ninjas and a Skrull. I may even have a green Hydra goon or two...

Same here. Nothing new since before Christmas, including revision packs.

Nice custom work on Gambit Tiberius and Miketime. For a better staff, I used moon knight's staff.

I'm in the south bay and in the same situation as you, hitting like a dozen stores every few days, and getting nothing. Weird how this area seems a bit behind.

What a dumb looking villain..

Yea you have to boil them....mine were like that also...

I got all mine from BBTS..I doubt I will see many at retail....

Target is your best bet for the Psylocke wave. Some stores have already put out the display endcaps and some still have them in the stockrooms or haven't gotten them yet. Just came back from one Target who had about half a dozen employees working on the toy resets and stocking but hadn't put it out yet. I scanned the figures and it said In stockroom-YES but a guy told me they'd probably be put out soon

I figured you did. I'm just a retail junky/ cheap skate. I love finding what I'm looking for in the wild.

I feel ya...I don't get to the stores much anymore...I used to love the hunt....But with all the gas I've wasted,and to come home empty handed,I rather just order online....Really what I do is pre-order everything...But if I happen to run across it in my travels,then all I have to do is cancel my online order:-)..I just don't go out of my way anymore to hunt..I have 5 kids,and when I look back at all that driving I have done looking for toys..I could have done a lot more productive things.

To my surprise, I have seen both DD/BS and WM/QS a few times. They are popular packs so I haven't seen any since! Also, my buddy texted me a picture of what he found at his Wal-Mart [forgive me if I don't say where, because of scalper lurkers] and he found Psyloke and Thor, only 2 from that wave.
