I think any parent that lets their kids brains rot in front of a screen are not doing them any favors.

But skylanders is a very heavily scalped brand already mostly by soccer mom and chinese men.

i dont own a tv bro. by choice. when i was a kid i got introuble at school so my mom took out the tv untill my grades and all went up. wich they did but got use to not haveing a tv around so didnt really need it. only screen i did have was on my computer and i used the monitor for my game systems. worked for me so im showing my son more than sitting infront of the new age babysitter lol my son plays outside till i get home, sometimes he'll ask if he can get on the laptop to watch old school toons or play on the ps3, wich i do let him but if im not home hes playn with his MU figs or Legos with his lil firends.

Probably gonna end up doing that, haha, though my gal and I don't really like having doubles in our collection unless it's Spidey or Wolvie.

I dont pay attention to such things , I like She hulk for her BIG personality


Now if you want big boobs in toy form then I'd suggest this one , this one has epic ones lol

[Scythe]

That means booty.

And of course an updated 90's X-men team pic.

Nice Forge. I'm actually excited for you to get Professor X, Jubilee, and Rogue. That's an awesome X-Men set!

Think if they were to use the same concept with MU. But instead of the computer schematics being on the cards there were the 1st appearance comic cover of whatever character it came with. Or some other type of key issue. That would be awesome IMO.

I liked them too and the fury files. The spider-man line ones were crap but the biggest piece of shit is the stupid mini art cards. They aren't even laminated.

Sorta. Let's call it a common agreement. I always enjoy a story where a good main stay villain teams up with the heroes on a rare occasion.

Its cool when some figures have that added hinge. It's rare but its a good added artic.

Agreed. Its awesome seeing these new figures FINALLY come out will all of the new added articulation. I'm anxious to see how the articulation is on Beast.

Haul of the day. I was very surprised to see these two GI Joes there as well. I've wanted them for sometime but have never seen them at retail until now. I'm lovin the lifeline figure. Sooo many cool accessories.


I also saw these messed up fugly variants, lol. Talk about poor quality control
The left part of warpath's mask is all crooked.

Logan's jaw was all mis-shaped.

[fallen69lee04]

AMEN, brother! Glad you scored that She Hulk- I plan on taking the carded version and repainting her into the black and white FF costume. that was the best team- and the SW Johnny and reed and perfect likenesses for John Byrne's art on that run
.
What Wolverine comes with her, anyway? Everyone ignores that fig!

You dress like her? That might be too much information to share on a toy forum, man.

Thanks! You think YOU'RE excited?!? Lol. I peed a little when I saw Rogue. And I will be getting an extra Jubilee for custom fodder to 90-fy her :-)

It is cool though how others here can share in you're excitement!

[kamendreda]

Seeking a little bit of advise on an upcoming custom. You may have seen my 90's X-men....


I'm going to tackle Cable here soon but I'm not sure with version to go with. Which costume do you guys think would fit better with my above team pic?




If I'm not mistaken I believe the first pic is an early 90's look and the second look is more late 90's so I don't think either would be too far out of place. Personally I like the second look more as its a bit more of a cohesive look with the other x-men (and I think would just be easier to do from a customizing stand point). But does this look conflict with any of the other x-men's looks that I have going on right here? Particularly Archangel? Didn't Archangel shed his pink and blue look in the late 90's when Cable was sporting the Xavier Blue and Yellow team look?

Of course there is also the very distinct possibility that I am WAAAYY over thinking this. :-)

[Jackieboy]

Just looking at my 3 packs and i cant help thinking,why the hell are there very little "Villain" 3 packs???
i would not mind a U-foes,frightful four,Brotherhood of mutants and intelligencia 3 pack.

[Tarooster]

Is there any word on how soon the new wave should hit retail? I mean it's gotta be real soon, they were saying mid July and now were almost into August.

Great choices!

I'd also do,

Ultron's Masters of Evil (Black Knight, Whirlwind, Melter)
Sinister Six (Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Vulture)
Lethal Legion VI (Grim Reaper, Nekra, Mister Hyde) + single carded Grey Gargoyle

[1andonly5711]

it has hit retail just not everywhere

[kamendreda]

Here are a couple of older customs. I sold off Wonder Woman as soon as I saw She-Hulk. I knew she'd make the perfect WW. I'll get around to making her again someday.

After that incident the only good thing for that brick would be for it to be returned through the front door glass

Someone's been drinking the kool aid again guys but seriously I'm interested in the spideys that are coming out as well but sometimes in regards to wolverine the immortal words of Owen Hart ring true "enough is enough it's time for a change I'm a black heart'.

Hot Dog vending machine? I'd be on my way to Paris too as it might be a safe distance from the smell

Me likey your X-men and I prefer the 1st cable. as far as Archangel goes he really only went back to the og costume and feather wings but was still blue in the face
