Heh. That's how I used to have to take photos in my old flat due to terrible lighting. Now my new place has, if anything, TOO much lighting.

Thanks, but I had meant the Hulk line. I ended up figuring it out myself though, ordered a Blonski + Hulkbuster for $5.99 loose. The bigger figs like Hulk and Abomination are fuggin' pricey though. I think $20 loose was the cheapest I saw... some of the comic-based ones are like $80.

Was there a Bruce Banner in this scale at any point?

You might not be aware of this, but saying "China man" is kind of offensive. Just thought I'd point that out just in case. I'm sure that not every Chinese person is offended by that just as someone may get away with saying the "N" word to a black person but you know, it's only a matter of time.

I'm not trying to call you out on anything, I just thought maybe you said that and didn't know that it might offend somebody is all.

I sunk so low as to buy one of those Iron Man's from the extended im2 lines, cause I am bored off my ass...I hope the flood gates open, and wave 18 and 19 are released simutaneously...and I wake up one morning only to find the sdcc MOE set tucked under my pillow...

shortysben · 06-20-2012, 06:34 PM

Speaking of which Doomtron, youll appreciate this, in Dark Avengers #176 (previously thunderbolts) there is a funny ass scene with doom, it was hilarious (it involved megalodon sharks...) ha ha ha

Lol i spent my time doing minor custom work on my current figs. Improving them and such. Dont let the lull draw u in my friend. resist it by becoming creative!

D00MTR0N · 06-20-2012, 06:35 PM

i saw a bunch of the cancelled armored avenger line at tjmaxx minus a few including the hammer drone of course,never thought discount stores would top regular big box stores but it has,I actually skipped walmart and target on a day when I know they get trucks just because of the pathetic offering they have had ALL YEAR!never thought that would happen.

skywarrped · 06-20-2012, 06:36 PM

So I finally took pictures yesterday to show my X-23 love. I finished adding the claws to her feet. I'm not very happy with the job I did, but overall I think it still looks good. One thing I noticed is that the X-23 on the right, which I bought when she was first released, is glossy whereas the one on the left I recently bought and she is matte. I prefer the glossy look so I need to find yet another to fix up.
