haha nice the old hide it technique works 75% of the time, the mold they use is pretty much lame, legs do tend to come off easy and wings aswell.

I don't have any quake hold available in town. Is there a 'best' place to pick some up online?

And here they are primed and ready to go.
Just bought some new model paint, but I think it's going to be a while before I can get a coat on these guys. Bummer.

I'm thinking Patriot needs an upgrade if these two are going to be on the shelf.

That looks incredible! Amazing sculpting, dude!

Nice! Glasses are funny. Murdock prefers the ladies' styles?

Yup, I don't get it either, but it sure looks amazing from afar...

Sure did. I haven't read it yet, but it's right here next to me.

Avengers Vs. X-Men #0 sold out last night, before it even went on sale. Diamond shipped #1 accidentally at the same time, so some unknowing shops sold #1 without knowing they could be fined for doing so...

nice i actually have the lex figure so i might try that lol.

I like the headswap. I think it works in the meantime since the official one doesn't come out until way later, wave 4 or 5 maybe.

Ooh need to call my LCS to make sure I have one in my box. Need to hurry up and get my old stuff out so I can trade up for the newer stuff, instead of dropping more $ :P Whoa just found out that Matt Fraction will be at my LCS and I can pick up #1 to get signed...ooh boy!

[usagent27]

just a FYI for customizers! Smalljoes has the Mutt figure w/ leather jacket on clearance for 2.99.

I bought it on Marvel's app, and read it on my phone. Apparently if you buy it digitally by 3/31/12, you'll get a $5 coupon for any Marvel comic to be redeemed at any participating LCS.

It's a good way to test out the app, and since #0 is sold out and I didn't ask for it to be pulled, it's the only way I was able to get one at 9 or 10 last night.

The book was pretty great. I absolutely love the art, but have always been a huge Cho fan. When I told him that a couple months ago, he said it's hard not to love big boobs and big butts.

I could see the results of this story raising the price on that Legends Hope figure. She seems to be the focus of the whole thing already.

Awesome! I love Cable customs. He's got enough costumes that he can be remade a hundred different ways and still look great.


Now who's tackling the new Spidey outfit, as seen in ASM #683?

She's suppose to be the next Phoenix so will be interesting on how the story ends. That's why I need to hurry up and trade in my old stuff for credit.

Cool looking cover for sure, I would get that in a MU figure.

[shortysben]

so bored I bought a carnage today for 11.99....wth...ha!

It's such a fun looking package... it reminds of the 80's packages where they'd have pictures of the actual toys in the line on the package as opposed to all artwork.

[KingLouie731]

Anyone know if they have confirmed a classic Nova Variant?

I like that figure. He needs some custom work but a good figure.

[TheLongestDay]

Today I found out my wife TRULY loves me.

We were in my local TRU and she came running over to me eyes all wide and excited

"BABE! I found you a Loki!!!!"

...unfortunately it was the Secret Strike Loki

She looked so happy for that tiny moment just cuz she thought she had made my day by finding me a little plastic man I want aaawwwwww :P
