I would have liked those if the elbows and knees were articulated. Without that they were an easy pass.

I did go Black Friday shopping once years ago at Walmart to get those movie line 8 packs. I missed out on any green mandarins and siffs but did get some great comic based figures.

IM2 was a great line for having the hall of armor a good mix of movie and comic armors,plus we got comic style whiplash and ironmonger,crimson dynamo,titanium man,guardsman and that beautiful comic cyborg war machine.
likewise with mandarin,never seen it in the wild!
the spidey line did very well in my area.

Did anyone pick up any of Angry Nomads new heads before he closed his store recently?

samsson37 · 11-25-2016, 01:22 PM

Pilkster · 11-25-2016, 01:49 PM

I'd like to say a huge thank you to Kernel for surprising me with not 1 not 2 BUT 3 FREE figures from my wants list. It was a great surprise and can't thank him enough. Thank you dude. Very much appreciated!!

Anyone remember the mythical 'last wave' of Avengers: Age of Ultron 5POA figures that never saw the light of day in the UK? Went into the Entertainer in Bristol on the way to the Pub and found both the Vision and Rampaging Hulk - £5 each.

snake5289 · 11-25-2016, 03:21 PM

Took me long enough realize it but the Civil War Cap is pretty damn tall compared to everyone else. Not knocking it or anything because I'm loving the figure but wow is it a bit of a difference.

This dude is selling a swap for almost $60...

Seriously, why did someone put a James Rhodes head from an unreleased 3 pack on an exclusive that will probably become common soon?

Why would you just take the head, anyway? Why not the whole figure?

That damn head is probly worth more than the damn pack it's shoved into right now.

Aw fuck that's terrible

I've had it twice so I know it's no picnic. It always hurts to lose one of our own.

In memoriam I'm going to vow to actually work on my own customs for the first time in weeks. It's not much but it's the best thing I can think of.
