Eventually they got tired of each other and some went to a closed Facebook page. So very few of the people who drove that thread are still even posting on the Tank. I'm there, USAgent, Nirvana, Joemama and a few others. But don't feel bad during its colossal growth it was a spam thread. Now it appears to actually be a Marvel thread again.

Quite a story. Why don't you guys just post here? We'd love all the new members! Do the MUtants have anything to do with the MUtant Lounge? It's this thread:

I think it was Doomtron leading the way. we went to multiple forums and were rebuffed at all. nobody wanted a big group of spammeds invading their forums. we thought toyark ws the perfect place for the game but were bamned from there as well. I thought that not supporting a Marvel Universe (toy) based game on a toy forum that was all about toys was unnreasonable so,I emailed the admin asking to have my registration blocked and my account closed.A couple years ago I syopped in at toyark when the MU thread here was crashing and attempted to register... guess what? my email is still on the 'blocked' database.So no Toyark for me. lolz. I do lurk in some of the forums once in a while and was watching when there was a massive meltdown some time back.... and then the stuff with MUCollectorclub was a bummer- tons of good folks there.
Still, I like Hisstank- it's the first forum I ever joined and actually became an active member. the thread may not move like it did before but it's still good MU chat and the ML and DC threads aren't terrible either... ...and the lack of 1000 spam posts a week is probably a good thing.

Are any of you guys aware of this stuff. One of the users on the Hisstank MU thread shared this story with me. It's the ancient history of MU Threads I guess xD

[Foreddyn]

I was but honestly I am what you call a 'casual', didn't really participated because I felt I had less rights. I joined HissTank before I joined here. I collected the old bucks, heck even bought lots when they were cheap. I actually saw a solid Vision at Disney Stores and said to myself I can get that cheaper online. But never really got him cause there were still no 'definitive' Avengers for me back then.

And let's just say the threads took a different turn back then as well. Should I even mention the infighting among members to members and/or admin?

Slight update to my lazy movie inspired Quicksilver custom (better head, different lower arms)

To heck with that. If I see an Emma not on preorder I'm gonna get it as long as the price isn't jaw dropping. Right now I'm just waiting on my preorder to arrive to BBTS and ship.

* I should note, I don't use ebay. I used to 10-15 years ago but I realized I'd rather know for sure the price I'm paying and if I am actually getting it or not.

(Nobody hate me) I actually ordered four Emmas (three for customs) and one Northstar, all singular. Sorry for anyone that missed out on Emma but there's some figures I NEED to have in my collection

Yesterday it was up for pre-order again @ BBTS...it's one of those items you just have to keep on looking for daily.

Like Lo (USAgent) said I think they tried. I missed out on that move. LOL. I did follow them around though. I still pop in the Hisstank thread from time to time, but I find this the far better Marvel thread. Many of the old MUtants are more interested in spam like talk or have moved on to Legends. They probably aren't really looking for a 3.75 Marvel thread.

Actually Victoria Hand was a lesbian, she just didn't mention it because who gives a shit what the sexuality of characters is. Unless it's relevant to the plot, it doesn't need pointing out just to show there's some diversity.

Professor X was paralysed, but has telepathy, Daredevil is blind, but has sonar, Echo is deaf, but can mimic movements. It really depends on the disability, and the power they have. Obviously you couldn't have muscle problems, but then be kicking ninjas to death. These are super humans, conditions resulting in disabilities wouldn't affect most of them because they're super.

You are not kidding! Everything looks like shit on my work computer since I can't update IE without having admin rights...

Why would they let you search for an item, then give you way too many filters to look at before you can actually see the item you are searching for? It looks like MI is still $9.99 so that is awesome, but why do half of them have add to cart buttons and the others don't unless you click on them?

I got the greenlight from Joe. These are Ursa's pics, not mine. I especially love the second one because it really does look like Simon is pissed/shocked and Beast is grossed out/terrified.

[UrsaMagnus]

I'm glad you enjoyed them enough to share them.

No worries, I'm sure the other online stores will get this and her soon for people to get.

Haha I know right, was reading on the sister sight they accidentally messed up and had the SDCC Devs up for only a penny, and they actually let a few buyers go with that price, man I would have loved to buy it for that much haha, they have corrected it though. Well we haven't seen the new MI wave up there yet, but when they do post that it's still at 9.99.

WHAT?!? A penny! Nope. Nope. Nope. Anyone who was actually able to get the SDCC stuff for that price are lucky as Hell!

Oh I hate it too!!!
They don't even have G.I. Joe as a brand anymore. They did have quite a few SDCC sets left from those.

Everyone let them know you hate the new site...

One of the main reasons I look forward to Civil War is seeing more of her, I really hope they expand her character and how she feels about having nearly aided Ultron in his genocide. I hope she and Vision are at least friends but I can absolutely see them ditching their romance because that's creepy.

yep, I've got Wanda but I don't think they even made Black Widow

As a matter of fact, I don't think ANY other thread or site has more accomplishments than this one...don't forget who we are and what we have right here right now!!!

Never underestimate our house! I bring it down now...

My birthday is Sept. 16. Assume I will be outside of your house on that day. I'll leave, if you quietly open that Moon Knight/Ant-Man 2 pack and give me the figures. If not, you're in for a world of pain son. I'm bringing in tanks, nukes, helicopters, and bears, oh my! I am not the only one. Surrender now and we will let you live.
