In no real order, and all would look fantastic cast in translucent plastic:

* Phoenix Force
* Shadow King
* Armor

Forgot about the tail. They could add a tail too. Using the squatch body would make sense...just a new head and tail.

😡😡😡

I’m so pissed this wave never came to DFW Walmart’s. I bought one at GameStop a few months ago but I need another (I lost one of her batons plus I wanna customize another)

Rockslide is a nice choice. I’d buy that in a heartbeat. Need Surge & Dust too.

I want to put this out here for my fellow Arkers. I lost a dear friend of 20 years back at the start of July. He had complications after heart surgery. His mother has asked me to start going through his collectables and selling them off to help pay for funeral, medical, etc.. I am starting with his ( mostly ) Toy Biz Legends BAF figures, (Fin Fan Foom, Sentinel, Mojo, and others), but in the coming months in my free time I will be listing a lot of his Star Wars Black, Video Game collectables, and anything else his mom wants me to.
My ebay page is here:
EDIT : Just look up my seller name Phantomcrow

Any money from these items will be going directly to his family.
A thank you goes out to all my fellow Arkers.

I'm sorry for your loss, man. I'll give it a read through tomorrow.

1. Strong Guy
2. Silver Samurai
3. Warstar

Warstar
Strong Guy
Nimrod

Captain Nash · 08-27-2018, 07:09 AM

most wanted X-Men BAF:

1. Nimrod
2. Shadow King (Preferably astral form)
3. AOA Abyss. Though I know it will never happen. At least with the other two I can kind of see maybe.

Edit: I'm saying that based on the thought that Bastion and Emplate could both potentially be a single carded figure, even though they are larger sized. If the thought is not, Emplate goes to #3 and bastion is right below him.

I'm like the only X-collector in the world who has no care for a Strong Guy, though of course, if they make him I will buy him.

@Phantomcrow: That sucks to lose a friend. Sorry to you and his family for your loss.

I'm sorry for your lost, friend. I'll definitely check out the page.

Phantomcrow · 08-27-2018, 09:44 AM

Just look up my seller name Phantomcrow, to find the ebay page.
Thanks to you all.

Spyne98 · 08-27-2018, 10:14 AM

Hey Phantomcrow, sorry to hear about your friend. Just to post it, here's the listings I got when I searched your ebay name:
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...pg=50&_fosrp=1
I'm hoping this works as I am on my work computer and not signed into an ebay account.

Starlord67 · 08-27-2018, 11:48 AM

I am not a fan of the new Jean Grey costume from X-men red...or Storms for that matter. I hope they don't make figures of these.

I like storms but I agree with you on the Jean Grey outfit. You know who it reminds me of? Gears from the transformers made human. Oh how I hate Gears.

But c'mon Hasbro don't you dare make that Storm outfit before we get Jim Lee (which is supposedly coming) and First Appearance Storm.

Boy Blunder · 08-27-2018, 11:58 AM

Ended up grabbing that BAF-less Black Knight I mentioned. Customer Service Manager at Walmart could only mark it down 10% (system restrictions), but it still cost less, with tax, than the pre-tax price tag, so I'm kinda cool with it. Will post a photo or two later.

Before that I may post some photos from the shop. Going in today to help restock the ML/DCUC display case, so hopefully it'll be full enough to be worth photographing.

Archangel · 08-27-2018, 12:10 PM

Found Surfer this afternoon!

....and these guys just showed up on my doorstep.

He lied to you on that discount, FWIW

I had a manager knock one half off because they swapped a figure. That’s still better than retail, but I’m holding out for Amazon to tank that wave’s pricing. It just feels like the Abomination wave all over again. I want two more knights so I can put those heads to use.

Archangel · 08-27-2018, 12:17 PM

If anyone is looking in Columbia SC, there are two Surfers left at the Walgreens on Lake Murray Blvd. I thought about grabbing two, but I didn’t want to be greedy.

Condolences to you and your friend’s family on their loss. It looks like he had a pretty sweet collection.

Eh. Given how hard it is to find BK, I wasn't really in the mood to push it. She gave me a discount, I took the discount. Got the figure, don't have to worry about unloading the BAF piece. I'm happy enough.

Besides, it's likely up to the manager if they feel like dropping it lower, and unlike so many other stores, I don't have a rapport with any Walmart employees, and would rather just get out of there. So I didn't really feel like blowing the chance to get any discount in the first place.

kylactus · 08-27-2018, 03:11 PM

Could just do what everyone else does, slap the old TB version in the new box and return it for full price... I saw this shit with rouge when she first came out, saw the box hanging from the side, got excited put it in the cart. Didn’t really look at her till I was waiting to check out and relised it was the TB crack whore version, and the BAF was a bicep from a knock off 12” G.I. Joe. Sometimes I absolutely hate humanity.

Boy Blunder · 08-27-2018, 04:11 PM

That would cost me even more money. I'd have to buy the older version.

Also it's an absolute dick move, full stop.
