I just picked up Tombstone at Toys-R-Us. The box is slightly damaged, but I'm not keeping it in the box anyway. Gf and I are in the process of doing a movie/video game room, so I got the okay to display the movie Spider-Man in that room since it fits the theme. Now I just gotta hope they still have it lol.

Wtf is up with Photobucket? I thought I was getting scam emails but then found out they are legit and it's a paid service now? Flicker is the current best bet?

Ditto, just for the Iron Man. Some obvious ideas and applications spring to mind...

I traded some figs for it and about a hundred bucks so no i didnt buy it.

id buy one too but hasbro would gouge with the price. Hell theyd probably charge over 60 for a bike n rider.
I found a dooley truch that fits 1/12 th scale and i am in the process of making the old chuck norris karate commando corvette into a vehicle for deadpool. I also customized a tmnt bike into a deadpool motorcycle...or motorpool.

I know you're kidding, but really all it would take is repainting Blizzard and you'd have an easy enough Spot.

But then if Hasbro did Spot, I'd expect a wave with Rocket Racer, Hypno-Hustler, and BAF Big Wheel.

It was definitely a joke but more so because I absolutely can see Hasbro making an easy Spot figure that almost nobody will want. By the way we have got to add Ruby Thursday to that list at the end.

Ended up grabbing the Spidey from the Homecoming line. I love the costume and I can put it on the shelf next to my 1989 Batmobile, to go with the comic movie theme.

Yeah it's definitely off topic, best not to carry on about it.

No idea who the others are but I would buy a Spot. He's not on my wishlist or anything but I would get him. And you're right he's an easy repaint. Who else could we get out of that Eel/Blizzard mold, with little to no resculpting?

1. Zero (from the MLF)
2. Stingay (yes you'd need a cape type thing but otherwise he's set)
3. I'm drawing a blank but I know there's got to be tons more....

Seriously that's the most basic mold ever. there's got to be plenty of repurposing.

Without a doubt. Did you ever watch What We Do in the Shadows? I think I recall that you were one of the people that hadn't seen it when I recommended it in a convo on the thread...eh, maybe it was someone else...

I saw it back when it first came out, I was one of the people here recommending it. It was actually recently added to amazon prime's streaming service so anyone who has prime can check it out. I love watching (or listening to) Jemaine Clement in just about anything he does these days and the fact that Taika Waititi is directing Thor Ragnarok is the first thing that got me excited for the film.

That's right I remember now that you chimed in on that dialogue. I've also enjoyed Flight of the Concords; I'm a sucker for absurdist humor. Yes, after you mentioned Taika's work on Thor a few months back (something I was unaware of at the time), my expectations for the film have increased a bit...

Yeah whoever made the image misspelled Kitt. I was originally looking to see if anyone had a gif of the line but I settled for the pic.

That definitely sucks, I'll have to cancel my account. It was a good service while it lasted I guess.

Same here. 5 GameStops and none of them had the wave. I went ahead and ordered the 4 I want(DD, JJ, Elektra, and Punisher) from Ebay.

Yeah, I went ahead and pre-ordered Jessica from DorkSideToys. I'm just gonna cross-my-fingers that I find the rest later. With this wave, Thor's wave, A-force, and the SDCC Exclusives, there's a lot of figures hitting soon.

Hasbro dropped the ball big time by not giving Death's head 2 normal arms/hands and an attachable knowledge/personality draining doohickey.
