the "variant claw" thing with darkhawk is just a case of one claw breaking off somehow,they are pretty fragile but by no means is that a variant,you can see where the claw broke off from.

YES!!!Finally!!! Found X-23 FULL wave at Target. Got X-23 and Sub-Mariner with Imperius Rex stand, but I'm gonna return the Sub-Mariner cus the leg looks like it's popped off in the box. Also saw the new comic packs.

bmorr · 10-08-2011, 02:56 PM

man i gotta applaud the better rate of distribution. Theyve been hitting stores more frequently. the new wave was abundant here, but collectors here make it dissapear REAL quick.

i just recently found out there is a mom and pop comic shop a block away from where i live. its literally in the middle of a residential area and looks like someones home, there is no sign or anything just a hand made "WE ARE OPEN!" in the front window...its really..strange...

anyways!

the good news, i got them to order cases of MU and they let me get first dibbs on every new wave. my pointless hunting and disappointment has ended! i just got back from picking up all of wave 16 =D

Awesome! You need to become their biggest patron then- maybe hook them up with a ceap "WE ARE OPEN!" sign for their door...
I make the flyers and such for my LCS and get a nice (insane really) hook up on the giant bins of loose toys he gets in every week!

That's really cool, it's like buying comics from the house that The Munsters live in. haha
So I've tried to get my LCS to order MU about 5 months ago, and the guy (who is really cool, but clearly bi-polar) was very adamant that it would be too complicated and not worth his time. Well obviously it isn't that hard to do, and this kind of annoys me because I've spent alot of money in his store. Oh well.

MarvelTF918 · 10-08-2011, 03:54 PM

Why must comic packs be $17.29 !!!???!!!

bmorr · 10-08-2011, 04:09 PM

seriously? its 14.99 for the two packs at walmart. toysrus, well.....your gonna be dropping a twenty. i think my target raised the prices on them as well.

LORD MARVEL · 10-08-2011, 04:45 PM

I got the two new comic packs for sale $30 shipped for both in my b/s/t

IronAvenger · 10-08-2011, 05:22 PM

Considering I've ordered a few cases myself...

Jason Abbadon · 10-08-2011, 05:30 PM

Well, you're a complicated guy...

Boba Fettuccini · 10-08-2011, 06:06 PM

I guess I am.

There use to be a comic shop like here. One side was a comic shop the other was a beauty shop. Oddly enough the husband ran the beauty shop and the wife ran the comic shop. They were an odd pair. Miss them and that place.

That sounds like a great premise for a show.

Icetron · 10-08-2011, 06:54 PM

Anyone need a Destroyer? Found one, but I don't really need it so I might just return it. Cost is $11.20 CAD though.

D Day · 10-08-2011, 07:11 PM

I was at target today and saw an iron man stark racing armor, it was blue and black and had stark logos all over it, it was kinda cool looking but I passed on it even though I've never seen it b4 was this a bad move? Should I go back and get it? I just didnt need another iron man.

Boba Fettuccini · 10-08-2011, 07:13 PM

I think I'm the only person in the world who wanted it, and someone else got it for me already.

D Day · 10-08-2011, 07:13 PM

On a happier note I did manage to find the hawkeye piledriver two pack to complete my wrecking crew! Now if I can find magneto black suit spiderman I'll be set, is that a peg warmer for anyone that would grab and send that to me for compensation of course?

That's rare to find the Hawkeye /piledriver pack. In Houston I havent seen it in the stores almost a 10 months.

Yeah that's the fist time I'd ever seen it, and I read on here about all the difficulty folks are having finding it, so I popped, I also finally got the x23 wave so I picked up Namor, X23 and ultron, I'm to old to have cared about darkhawk, and I dont really care about unmasked cap America

I'm the same I only collect the figures I really want. I over did that with my Star Wars collection. I just had to have them all..lol

D Day · 10-08-2011, 07:31 PM

I really want the magneto two pack because that new magneto looks awful, I'm not diggin the color or the cod piece, I prefer characters in their original look not some new bullshit look, that's why I don't have a havoc yet, the stupid modern one is available for real cheap but the one that looks like he's supposed to look, like I grew up seeing him look, is 40 freekin dollars, and I holding out hope I can find one for a more reasonable price
