The best thing to do is become friendly with your local tru or walgreens employees and find out what days they get new stock. It becomes helpful, at least this way you know what days to take a drive to the stores.

Play Arts stands are bulky as well, but can still be made use of. My only gripe with them is that they tend to be a bit fragile and seem to break quickly. You can also pick these up individually on sites like ebay.



I never call before checking a store. In most cases, it will be a waste of time, and besides, with smaller staff and chopped hours, retail workers already have enough to do as is.

As far as employees knowing what's in stock, it largely depends on how much they care about their job, and how much of a rapport they have with you. It also will depend how much you believe them when they tell you they have no additional stock in the back, which in most cases is true, but we refuse to accept that answer at face value.

Let me phrase that..more like stands that would simulate flying or hovering. I have a few that i've been wanting to give them that flying pose. I have neca stands but they're only good to keep the impossible to stand figures standing.

Funny you should bring that up. Same thing happen a week ago with him and his buddy and me telling the guy to stop stressing. They immediately came back with a nasty response.

I'm not the one that needs to grow up if you think it's funny to irritate other people. Like I said, you rarely post around here, so when you do make a post, you should watch what you say. You have little for people to judge you by. You're immature.



I have no idea what you're talking about, I've never interacted with you before.

Hey guys.... Got a question. Making a custom for my 3.75" collection. I need advice on head to use. Hopefully it will fit the neck post somewhat easily, be a readily available figure not rare and expensive, and a close enough match with minimal paint....

The above are references.
1. the character is BAD GOLIATH
2. the base figure is ML 6" BULLDOZER
3. the reference artwork

Thanks for the advice in advance.

My post count has nothing to do with the fact that I did nothing to warrant your reaction. And the fact that you are crying as if I did says more about you than it does me. I was trying to help you out by saying that you have no need to stress about the wave when it will,most likely hit shelves hard soon. You are too much lol

Honestly I don't know why your freaking out about this wave. The Sandman wave came out months ago, but it's only recently where I am seeing them starting to crowd the shelves. I've yet to even see the xmen line hit a Wal-Mart. You just need to relax and use tools like brickseek or simply call instead of driving around like a madman.

You should re-read what you said to me, you called me a madman and were very condescending. You were acting like I'm an idiot and my methods of hunting aren't valid.

I have been putting a lot of effort into hunting— blood, sweat, and tears. I don't need someone implying my efforts suck or to stop "freaking out about this wave". That wasn't nice to say/a respectful way of saying that either.

I don't have any but if they work with NECA figures they should work with Legends, in theory. I was actually thinking about picking one up the other day since the new two pack Vulture will likely look better flying than grounded.

I'm using NECA'S figure stand in these two shots. These are the ones I was mentioning, not the little disk ones with the foot peg that NECA also puts out.
