True, anything can still happen.

2. Why would Marvel get their characters back? Fox owns the media rights, and until Fox relinquishes them, or is purchased, they are owned by Fox. Is there something in the terms of the original arrangement that says that Marvel would retain in the event of a Fox Media collapse or sale? Michael Jackson owned the rights to the Beatles for years, but Paul McCartney didn't just magically get them back when he died. MJ's estate did, who in turned used them as collateral to pay off Michael's debt and ensure his charities and children were taken care of.
From what has been stated through various sources, yes, Fox's contracts state that if the company is ever liquidated, sold off, or shut down, all rights return to their original copyright holder.

3. Comcast is already willing to front 8 billion more than Disney, and up it's bid to 100 billion dollars should Disney wants to start a bidding war for it. And in cash no less. Say what you will, but that's not chump change. This aggressiveness by Comcast says to me that there could very well be some stake in the Marvel franchises, because why the hell someone would want to put up that kind of money for Fox's news and sport networks (which Disney was planning to scuttle anyways after the acquisition) is beyond me. They're certainly not interested because they see a goldmine in the Alien and Predator franchises.
If Disney wants it, Disney gets it. End of story. You don't fuck with Disney. You bow down to salute your lord and master mouse.

4. I'm not sure what happened in the cases of Paramount or Time Warner, but lots of network providers (cable companies, as well companies like Hulu and Netflix, which can be loosely affiliated as such) are creating their own studios in order to brand their own original programming. Just the way the world is going. Why pay someone to do something for you when you can just as easily do it yourself.
So when Adelphia got into legal trouble on the East Coast, Time Warner purchased their company, becoming the sole cable provider in Buffalo NY. They then decided that since Fox was a competitor that anyone that wanted to keep their Fox stations would have to pay an additional $25 a month on their cable bill. I'm not sure what exactly happened after that, but from my understand it was declared illegal and never happened.

As for Paramount, well Viacom, they decided that Direct TV needed to pay more for their stations, so Comedy Central, MTV, and every other network owned by Viacom were blocked to Direct TV owners. They couldn't even watch them online because people had to log in with their cable provider to watch them.

If Comcast buys Fox, what's to stop them from pulling that same shit with WB owned networks? Hell, I don't even get Disney XD as it is because Comcast wants me to pay extra for it. Thus, I had to download my Star Wars Rebels episodes (thank the gods it's done).

In other news guys. I was shocked as hell i finally saw abit of the deadpool wave at my go to walmart today. They had 90s DP, Domino,and palidin. I was not expecting them in the wild down here in SoFla at all really.

I found Havok and Shadowcat at Winners for $12 each a couple of days ago. It was particularly gratifying because I needed the included Onslaught headsculpt and have been trying to track one down for a long time. Now all I have left to complete that particular BaF is the left leg that was included with Scourge. Anyone have one to spare?

I was about to ask where you got that bike before I realized it was the DC Icons Batgirl bike... which I own... :o the way my collection is arranged I never see it, because there's no other place to put it. I need more space (or a better shelving situation)...

DarthKamen 05-09-2018 02:59 PM

For a minute it felt like the Star Wars community in here.

Augustus_Cole 05-09-2018 03:01 PM

anybody have any Modok parts? I just found the head that I got from Bynres like 9 months ago and never saw it nor remembered i even had it until i was doing some Sprang cleanin' in my office today. It was still in the box he shipped it in...smh..

Captain Nash 05-09-2018 03:30 PM

I swear, I work from the office for one week and I come back and all my toy forums are broken. DTL I have Modok parts somewhere but I don't recall what and it may be....months..years it feels like ....before I can get to them. I think I got about half that wave. I know I have the huge head.

your cranial proportions aside... since it may take years to get them...haha..i won't wait on you. The head is the only piece i have...well and the left arm...i think that was already attached..but i dunno..i wasn't collecting back then.

LOL at the first part. And I figured you might not want to wait until whenever I get to them but I thought I'd ask, understandable though. I wish I'd kept my various accessories in the same boxes as my legends figures I could get to them easier.

FWIW I have the head that comes with Spider-Woman, the legs that come with Wasp and the left arm that comes with Moon Knight. Or at least, that's the pieces/figure combo per wikipedia....not like i'm actually looking at them.

Augustus_Cole 05-09-2018 03:58 PM

well...i'll gladly take the parts if you happen to get to them before i do...like i said..i've had this head here since September and didn't even recall owning it.

That sounds fair. whenever I do get to them I'll let you know, and if you don't need them anymore that's cool. I hate having incomplete BAF but I don't have the desire to complete MODOK. If only I could find a Mojo tail I'd have that one finished too.

Picked this guy up at a flea market today. Damn the sculpt and articulation ToyBiz was dealing with back in the day was crazy.

Nice find. Yes, the articulation is miles above Hasbro, but there's some definite sculpting horrors (mostly the lady faces) and the paint wash is problematic. Not the shadowing but the wash that makes it less shiny that Hasbro for some reason. I don't know how to describe it. Yet, they do exist contrary to what some posters believe, and while they may need to be redone, they mostly fit in as nice stand ins until Hasbro does them. Except Rogue. Which is no longer an issue I'm glad for because that Rogue was hideous.

Saaaaame! I don't begrudge anyone that buys them but they just seem like the ultimate low-effort, mass produced plastic junk and I secretly hope the bottom drops out on them, 'cause seeing my LCS's and novelty stores sell "RARE CHASE VARIANTS" for double and triple digits boils my blood haha
