I would NOT go that far!

Not that I expected much, but Hasbro's showing pre-NYCC isn't really bowling me over at the moment.

I do give that one a pass, but in a guilty pleasure kind of way.

Same here. Maybe his best comedy, but not his best movie. For me, that honor would be a toss-up between Predator and T2. True Lies was really good too.

Not a surprise, looks like they're going to concentrate on more the movie/toon stuff...

ok, TRU in Deptford NJ had the common case (Cloak and Abomination), while I noticed that Target gets the chase versions in, so at least Hasbro chases are no where near as bad as Toybiz and chase figures

Amazon dropped the price of the Iron Man Hall of Armor set.

And in case you didn't hear...TRU.com listed Cloak & Dagger on their website as a 2-pack for $9.99. I'm sure there's going to be some backlash there when people only get one figure. This listing is currently sold out.

They also have a listing for Marvel's Abominations figures, but this one is not listed as a 2-pack. However, it doesn't state which figure you'll get.

wylde bil · 10-10-2013, 03:26 PM

wow i've heard something here i thought i'd never hear "arnold" and "best movie" in the same sentence lol

You guys are funny with this Arnold talk.

Anyways, the previous 2 days I've hit some of the targets in my area. Only one showed signs of the Dagger wave, but only Warpath was left so I nabbed him. Hoping I get lucky this weekend.

Also hope I find Dagger and A-bomb.

I was going to make a joke about how awesome "Jingle All the Way" is but I can't do it. Though as a toy collector, it's scary how accurate some scenes are.

I've decided the Hall of Armor set still isn't low enough for me. My slew of recent purchases has helped to change my mind that this is not essential. Plus with the price drop, I think it will go lower.

TRU doesn't know what they're getting into. Don't make the fanboys irritated.

My Chinabay Dagger showed today. Photos forthcoming of her union with Cloak.

ChuckSass · 10-10-2013, 08:22 PM

at my comic shop, there were tons of warpath, zemo and that black Iron man, but no cloak/dagger or abominations

was anyone looking for those three?

Joeysmash24 · 10-10-2013, 09:24 PM

Went to the first day of NYCC today and pick Managed to
Pick up some goodies. Electra, Dagger, ML Maestro. Also came across Old Man Logan for $40 MIB and the taco trucks but the prices were nuts. Also found Leader, one guy had for a couple bucks about retail. Allnin all a successful first day

As promised, photos of my Chinabay Dagger:

The only real issue with her was the left arm was a little far out of the socket so you could see the shoulder peg. I heated it up, moved it and reinserted it. It's better but not best. Also, there is some extra material around some of the elbow joints. Nothing hindering movement but a more particular person might choose to exacto-knife it off. Guess that's why she's a China girl.

She has the Scarlet Witch hex hands. I'm too much of an MU female buck novice to say where the other parts come from. Overall the paint apps are very good. Well worth the $18 paid for her.

EDIT: Sure wish Cloak had rocker ankles. I just realized that pose makes him look like he's photobombing Daggers shot.

mdstimcell · 10-11-2013, 06:31 PM

I found both Dagger and A-Bomb at a Dallas Target this week. I really want another Dagger so I can make a simple disco Dazzler out of her.

BEAM · 10-11-2013, 06:34 PM

^ I love that Storm. Custom I assume?

Me too big man. Really like your custom modern Storm. Got a recipe?

mdstimcell · 10-11-2013, 06:47 PM

Yes indeed she is.

MADREVJACK · 10-11-2013, 06:48 PM

No luck on our A bomb search yet Mr. Beam. You? I'm going out again tomorrow.
