Thanks for the welcome, Jed. However, I've never been far...just lurking from time to time.

Thanks, Triv, the feeling is most definitely mutual. I'm in and out, but still catch up (reading through comments and announcements) when I can. Things should normalize for me soon.

Much love peeps,
Peace and hair grease!

Nice to see you back, man! Much love.

got the Hydra 2 pk for 25 or so at my TRU. Pretty good. I cleaned up.

As someone who ENJOYS customizing, that Hydra 2 pack(s) at that price was the ultimate score. Weeks of fun and problem solving customizing......cannot wait to begin. That stuff if just fun to me.

When I go to the beach and when I get sent overseas for work, I have a bunch of action figures to customize after I get some "action."

I have 100's of SPideys and I love customizing the paints, the eyes, damage, ect...... That is so much fun to use creativity to make something yours.

I live about 70 miles north of the Mexican border and have yet to spot Surfer. Supposedly he's not due out till around August with Thing later on in the year.

Speaking of customizing, I wasn't quite satisfied with my Viper custom, so I went to town on it last night. Much happier with Viper 2.0, though I'm still hoping for a redo in the future.. =)

I remember you writing something similar a couple of weeks back. Weird how we saw an inventory stock listing for Kl'rt, which would suggest the character should arive before either Surfer or Thing.

Nice custom, I'm also waiting for an update to the previous Hasbro miss on Viper.

I enjoy customizing myself. I like to do obscure characters hasbro isnt likely to do or original figs outta my own mind. 25 is outstanding for that hydra set. I wish my tru had gotten em but the only exclusives i ever saw was the aforce set......eventually.....shuri n claw and randomly ran into the vision sw set. Never saw the others.....hell i never saw that homecoming pack.
Ah well. More figs that, like satana, are just pipe dreams.

Very nice. Hobgoblin looks like hes about to pidgeon bomb sandman though. Plus the grimace on hobbys face just sells the intensity of the bomb, haha.

I'm awaiting his release. i still need a vulture, hoping we eventually get scorpion,puma,and vermin. I don't know who else we're missing. We've gotten just about every well known spidey villian.

I may get the New Doc Ock but have to wait a see if his Tentacles fit in his back separately and then I will use the Bendable ones from the series 8 Doc Ock.

YEah....collecting and customizing became a big thing to me when I studied for my advanced degrees in college. It's a real hobby/skill that calms me and helps me focus. Certain tasks can help you in other areas. Someone who paints, can use that skill to improve their Mathematical skills. Some people copy, smart people create...at least that is my view on things and customizing. Customizing is creating.

I wouldn't say no to a black t-shirt version of Hydro-Man.

JCarterVA · 05-13-2018, 05:41 AM

Early bird gets the action figures. Was in Walmart to pick up some frozen veggies and scored Avengers wave 2. I wasn't sure if I was going to get this wave but after seeing the movie, I rwally wanted Cull Obsidian. They did 3 different heads for Black knight but no mini Antman or Wasp? The Black Widow face sculpt is amazing. It's just below the Figuarts one in terms of quality. I would have preferred Beta Ray Bill or Sif to Malekith.

We kind of did get hammerhead with chameleon. The only ones you listed i could see us getting are cardiac and smythe. Also a hydro nan as what eric said.

Just saw infinity war. Excellent movie, however i did not like the ending . They just leave us in suspense til next year.

Really liking the new Infinity War Black Widow, but wanted a more classic look. I did a hair swap with Avengers style head from the Winter Soldier wave Black Widow and I’m happy with the results. I’m grateful that the body was fully detailed under the green vest.
