I'm happy to help, as I'm sure we all are. You should all note that the appreciation goes two ways. My collection would be nothing like it is without the wonderful collectors on this site. You gents are awesome!
I'm about the same spot. I really don't want to pay so much for crappy figures I only want to check a box. Sweet, one of a kind figures? Sure. Crappy variants that are just running changes? Ugh. Awful figures that were just shortpacked to begin with? Now I'm depressed. Dude! I didn't think it could get better and it did! and Fin wicked shots man! wow |

I forget which thread I posted it in last week, but the package of 3 of those Stage Act 3 stands I bought from one of those Chinese eBay sellers ($5 a stand) turned out to be a cheap ko Transformers Devastator set..
![]() ..at least they were close. NOT! ![]() I lost $15, no big deal.. lesson learned. I waited 2 weeks for that, all to save $6. Dumb. So, bummed that I didn't get the stands I've been eagerly awaiting for, I decided to buy some from a normal store, so I went to ToyArena and bought a pack of the Stage "4" stands for $21 (a pack is a full set of 3 stands) shipped last Friday. They arrived yesterday. Not only did they arrive yesterday, but they also sent me a pack (seperate shipment) of Stage "5" stands for some reason.. warehouse error I guess. So after all of that I ended up getting three free stands from one place after I coincidentally bought them elsewhere and never received them. So basically I ended up with a free ko Devastator out of this. Pretty weird. Anyway, the Stage "5" stands work just as well, if not a little better. Their base is a little bit larger, but not by much, so that's the only negative. They probably can support a little more weight because the arm that connects to the base is a little more sturdy and has a ratchet type mechanism in it. Both stands are kick-ass, but the Stage 5's seemed to be easier to come by (when I was looking at least),.. and they're a $1-$2 cheaper per pack. I never did get a Stage "3" stand to have a comparison, but the Stage "4" stands look the same to me. Just a couple of quickies.. ![]() ![]() ![]() Better shot of the Stage 5.. ![]()

flight stands snafu is disconcerting.
hmm. for some reason, in some shots, they look better than others. im just wondering if when displayed they give off that 'oh look a plastic thing holding up your toys' vibe - thus taking away from the flight/hovering intended effect. maybe its just me. |

Thanks, I know what you mean, there's actually a $400 statue of him DP on the same red scooter, with tons of weapons on his back. I've seen 1:18th scale red scooters online for like $20 and thought of getting 1 lol.

Buy that Daredevil-Bullseye comic pack asap. It's the best comic pack released and the quality of the new figures is amazing. I'm not a massive fan of Bullseye but this guy is always at the front of my shelf. They pose up so well!

im looking for the new carded Absorbing Man - either reg or variant. both preferably at some point down the road. i saw the reg version at WM today but @ $8.97, it was an easy pass. guess im still stuck in the dark ages where anything over $8 seems too much for 3.75." |

Ya if they didn't come out with the Shadowland DD, I probably would pick up the pack. I already have the single Bullseye, and I don't really want double of the same figures. But maybe...

I need two of that pack. I want to remove the DD insignia from one and turn it into a modern articulation Deadpool. Extra Bullseye might become a Black Panther or something. Now I just need to find two of em.
