I didn't know there was a ML Spiral, I really wanted one right up until I saw how much they are selling for on eBay.

Yeah, it's not a cheap figure but if you search for her on eBay often, you will see her anywhere between 30-50 bucks every once in a while. They sell fast at that price.

I had asked about her a few months back to the board...seemed to be a consensus that she wasn't really worth the elevated price...so I left it alone..

It's just like everything else...it comes down to how much is the collector willing to spend on a figure. If you're on a budget, then you save up for a figure you that really want regardless of what everyone else says.

For me spiral was a must have. I just have one last grail fig to get....a satana.

I hear you but...overall I've received pretty damn good advice (on a whole) from the board. For ex. I also started asking about Storm..and got several opinions...enough for me to pull the trigger on what was a very pricey figure (though i do know this guy that bought 3 of them )and I'm happy with it.
It doesn't mean i WON'T get it (Spiral)...it just means it gets pushed back on my "to-get" list..

Added some black wash to Deadpools leather.

Finally picked up my Wanda! But sadly, my dad left our hot glue gun in Long Beach so I can't make her new magic effects >_<

Just an FYI, lots of Legends cheap on Amazon right now, including some from the new Abomination wave.

Repainted her eyes. Think she looks a bit more like Elizabeth Olsen?

Also I went around Walmart while waiting to pick up Scarlet Witch (I got there before pickup was opened) and checked the ML aisle. The only new thing I saw-

First instance finding a figure from the Space Venom wave. Only one here. Either means they got one set in store that sold out besides her, or she was somehow a return lol. Checked my other retailers in my area. Only X-Men, Giant Man and Doctor Strange waves.

Spyne98 · 10-25-2016, 07:04 PM

I saw some of the Abomination wave at my local Toys R Us today. Captain Britain and Secret Wars Captain America. I'm happy to see that wave hitting retail stores. I just ordered Wonder Man off Amazon for $12.

kylactus · 10-25-2016, 09:33 PM

Has anyone seen the x men wave restock lately? I was really hopeing to find a DP in the wild, but the relentless, almost bi weekly waves coupled with a standing stock of all father, and ant man left overs is beginning to make me wonder if we'all be able to catch anything on the rebound anymore.

My TRU has 4 Havoks on the shelf, so they must have had 4 cases. One of my Targets has 3 Icemans, so yep, 3 cases at least there too. A Walmart I went to the other had has 6 Cables, 6 Icemans, and 5 Havoks. Oh, and a Phoenix.

Dude...you're going to kill me (so is Nite)! I completely forgot you needed one man. I'm sorry. At one point I was able to find these out in the wild...Target, Walmart, Walgreens and TRU. I gave them all away.
