Got my MOE pack in today

Also ordered the new fury from china.

Just wait until you guys see what I'm planning to derive from the MOE set once I get it here.

As you'll have to paint the modified Helicarrier anyway, just buy the normal version and cut it into quarters- you can add the additional section (hell, make it WAY longer while you're at it) and make it wider.

Of course, even at twice the length and width, it's smaller than an agis destroyer, much less a carrier, but it'll be an impressive toy.

I had similar plans. I was gonna buy four reg Helicarriers and splice them together, I need more room.

Shoot, I thought it came in pieces...

It can split up into two maybe even three pieces. That's how I got it displayed right now. I'm still setting up figures around it. I hope i can finish it up soon so I can post more pics later.

Or just get a bunch of PVC board, some Gorilla Glue, Super Glue and hunt Ebay for loose GI Joe vehicle parts lots for the rotor things.
Loose but used Joe vehicles go dirt cheap and have unlimited kitbashing potential- stuff like the Sky Hawk has great jet engines, etc.

Maybe you can even score a beat up USS Flagg at some garage sale for parts.

Personally, I was bummed that the maria Hill fig was exclusive but now that i've seen her...she's pretty blah. a nice head sculpt (if poorly painted with brown instead of black harir for some reason) but the BW reuse body...I mean, at least swap lower legs with some Joe female to make her taller or something!

But if anyone wants to sell their or let me cast that head, PM me!

But then the punisher wave..... GR revision again??? It just came out in the previous wave!!!

Modern Thor??? Wasn't particularly hard to get and every major retail store u walk into has at a minimum of 10 thors from different lines available??!!

A revision spidey??? There are Soooooooooooo many spideys out there, including 2 new ones in this wave alone, And you think this case needs another one????

And falcon!?!??? Really?!?!? Falcon?!??? He's like peg warming champion of the "lesser known" characters (he'll never beat thor, cap or IM). He's in most stores you go into, and it doesn't appear to be the new one (another brilliant idea making a new on by the way) so what the F!!!!!

What about juggernaut? Or vision?? Or any of the highly scalped non peg warming figures they could have put in there?????

Do they just put a bunch of monkeys in a room at typewriters and have them pick the case assortment?????

WTF?????????!!!!!!!!

This is EXACTLY why I asked how the rev case figures are chosen. It's all fucked up! We're getting Falcons and Absorbing Man when NO ONE wants more of those.

They started to say they look at what figures sold and what's still on shelves, but in the end they said it's completely random!

Fucktards! Solid Vision! Blade! Check ebay, you doofs!

"we have less viable product per case, higher cost per product and a need to recoup our investment on the case"

PR line of BS.

To keep it MU themed. I'll set up one MODOK with the MU stuff.

DAMN Paul, I haven't been this jealous since I saw Do Boy's MOC collection back when I first started on here!

Though I don't know what I'd do with the Legends figures once I opened them...



Anyone else see this before?


I don't know where it was purchased, I think in the NY Bronx. The image is on facebook...


Seems like a sweet deal to get those two for like $18 bucks!

[vampireheart]

I just caved and bought the SDCC Helicarrier from HTS. Man, where am I gonna put this monstrosity lol

[Jimmyo]

That Spidey copter is a euro import, I picked one up for my little one the other week

She has not opened it yet as it's a reward for her maths challenges.

The spidey is awful but no one is buying it for that.

No way he paid $18 for it, I think he was refering to the regular 2 pack comic packs

That's awesome, rewarding good grades with toys. That's how I was. It was a good incentive. Having my POTF Rancor dangling in front of me.

Take into consideration that a Sentinel costs £80 over on our side of the world and $30 in the states,id well believe that this Spidey set would be going for $18 stateside.

[Jimmyo]

I guess so but its a lot of plastic for $18 but well worth it for those 2 figures.

The Spideycopter is just awful though but it does have a net launcher. I think we might Matt black it out and put some s.h.i.e.l.d decals on the side for Nick Fury to ride in

[Jackieboy]

Also price will vary in different states.you got the right idea,some paint and some creativity will sort that "spideycopter" out

[Snowflakian]

Prepping for the fem ghost rider custom symbiote inspired by doing the oil slick bike already. I'll just replace him on the animated shelf with a new one later like how I got lucky with Omac that way. (I made X-O Manowar from one I got at walmart, but then an Arker helped me out and sold me one that I keep intact for my DC stuff. Thanks again for that btw. You know who you are. =D )

But while I was at it, I went ahead and took the pic on my MU shelf to figure out where I want to put her when she's done. xD

[Boba Fettuccini]

No action figure vehicle costs only $18, especially if it comes with 2 extra non-dummy figures.

Is the single release X-Force Warpath very desirable? And what about the Jim Lee Jean Grey?

Nice. I just ordered that King Loki four pack repaint for $13 shipped from one of those guys. I always liked that figure, but never saw him in retail, and I don't care about the other three figures coming in that pack. So, $13 works for me.

Paint it white and use it for moon knight. He uses one in the comics.

The single carded X-force costume Warpath is the rarest. Jean Grey is not so rare.

Hey, do you have a link to that EBay seller with the Loki re-paint!?!?

Plus he's not buying it at a regular retail chain.

There's some possibly sketchy stuff going on with these Mom & Pop shops...

Very nice and clean looking. That Indiana Jones figure looks great with MU guys. Spider-woman looks like she about to take a...

Great idea. That's a lot of white paint, lol.
