I love this Comic Pack. It's not often that we get a CP that has two real rivals together.. AND they're both using great molds.

Can you post a close up of your new Bullseye's head logo? I'm curious if they're all as bad as mine. I want to open mine so damn bad, but I've been waiting for a better painted set at retail.

PS. Before I bought my first house I lived next door to a smoker in my apartment..its so nasty that even walls can't keep that stench away. It was one of my biggest drives to buy my own house..disgusting habit.

It sounds a little over-exaggerated to me.

haha yeah i planned to open one for custom x-force colors, open another one for its original colors, and keep another one mint in sealed card. the other two i plan to post them at a local forum and sell them at retail price to other local collectors who could not get them in time. when i saw a few of these i just felt that that i should get these psylockes before the scalpers seize them all just like what i saw at another TRU last week. the trend is that storm and thunder age thor disappear very quickly at retail. the rest (shadowland daredevil, iron fist and marvel's patriot) are the pegwarmers, at least here in singapore.

I think it turned out ok. The only QC problem I had was when I first opened the pack, the left leg was not attached. I popped it back in and put that sucker in the freezer for 30 minutes. Works out ok now.

Wow very nice. I hope the Shadowland DD has the new mold! Although are the new ones still 3.75, seem to be a bit taller to me.

Thanks. Yours looks better than mine, but maybe I'm making too much of a deal of out it. I'll stare at it for an hour tonight.

Unfortunately Shadowland DD uses the old mold. Why? Who the fuck knows.

I'm really impressed with this comic pack. Not only did they use the new molds (rocker ankles, neck pivot, thigh swivels, calf swivels) the comic pack also comes with accessories. Most of the comic packs lack accessories with exception to a few like deadpool & taskmaster, dr doom & absorbing man. Its just too bad that hasbro doesn't use these moving forward.

I've also noticed that the new molds are coming in more at the 4" mark vs 3.75. Examples are cyclops, cable. The new molds are great, I want more of them. I may try to pick up another DD and paint it for my own shadowland custom. I hate that the new wave used the old DD mold. For me there is no going back now.

The Shadowland DD uses the Captain Britain body.

[Optimus Vader]

I haven't seen any decent sales or price drops either. Your best bet is to check him out on Amazon periodically. There will be a day, that no one can predict, where they'll be something like $30 shipped.. it could be tomorrow or it could be in March, but it'll happen. OH YES, it will happen.

Really? Cap Britain wasn't bad his mold.

[CLASSIFIED]

The Shadowland DD is super buff. Any ideas on how I can get him to notice me?

[Optimus Vader]

You could paint a bullseye on your head?

[CLASSIFIED]

I was thinking tight pants and a low cut shirt.

Here's hoping I find wave 17 at retail because it is one of the first waves I didn't pre-order at BBTS.

i was gone for over a month with the entire place locked up and shut. they moved in as we where headed out the door. so my place has literally been stewing in smoke since then. i guess that's all it took...

apparently there are 3 people in a one bedroom apt all smoking and one of them is a shift worker so there is always somebody smoking. so you can imagine the amount of smoke that is. we tired to talk to them and got the typical "addict" response. denial, then anger...not fun, not fun at all.

i just got done packing away everything i own in plastic bins, literally everything i own was affected in some way. my transformer collection....its pretty much toast now too. whites are yellowed and bright reds have faded to watermelon shades.
its made even worse is there is no by-law or smoke free apartment laws here. so im sol for everything unless i want to take my landlord to court for allowing them to have so many people in a single bedroom apt. we cant even open our windows to escape it since one of them apparently uses the sun room as his smoking room which blows the smoke right into our front windows

my MU collecting is pretty much going to have to halt completely until i can get a new place..sigh, just in time for the new waves too

. That answers my question. That sucks dude. Around here it is divided by sections. On the other side of the building would be smoke free, while the other isn't. Or just no smoking at all. We got extremely strict smoking laws here. Thank god.

Same here strict smoking laws, can't even smoke in a rental car either which is great. Although I guess that's one good reason for being a MOC collector. The protection of the case.
