Oh damn you!!!!!! The one day I am to busy to go out. You take all my shit!!!!

lol I take back what i said about me not having any luck!

Thanks, LORD MARVEL and Do Boy! My haul isn't as nice as both of yours. I NEED Astonishing Wolverine and Stretch Strike Venom!!!

Well tell you what Do Boy, if you snag Mandarin (or cyborg war machine, or Comic Whiplash) I'll trade you the ultimate Iron Man I found at my Ross for him. lol :)

Sounds like we could work something out! Just been pretty busy lately. Hopefully I can Leave the office tomorrow to hunt a little bit.

dont worry homie im off tomorrow..ill be checking out alot of ross's for Mandarin and UIM. I find 2 Mandarin you can trade with Mastersteef. :cool:

i think its time for a new shelf..

Your collection sure has grown in a short time.

Awesome! I've seen both versions around town a bit. Does anyone know which of these is more rare?

I found the Goliath vs Thor at a Walmart clearance too, though it wasn't in very good shape...

I went to one Ross, but there was only one IM2 figure and it wasn't any I recognized as wanted. I'm really looking for all you guys since I don't collect the series myself. I kinda want to see the hype behind UIM or Comic whiplash...

Damn! Where'd you find the Torch?

I keep finding figures I like in this series, but the packaging is so god-awful I can't make myself buy them. Beyond this one, are there any spectacular characters? I've seen a few Carnage, Venom tongue variants, and rhinos...

Lizard and Shocker are also some good figures from this line

From what I hear. Shocker is just gawd awful

The first one I bought a long time ago for $16.99 at a local comic shop, lol. I opened him, and then found this one today at Target for $7.09. There was also three Steve Rogers, three X-23s, two Ultrons and three Namors.

Its so nice to see people finding Mandarin at Ross stores for $4.99. To me, it feels like a nice "Eff you!" to the scalpers on eBay...

The Hobgoblin has some decent parts on the fig, like the cape and torso, which could be combined with the MU version to make the best imo Hob fig.

Hmmmmm i might just try that out..lol

the spiderman line do lack on articulation ..only down fall imo.

Post pics if you do!

I'm starting to get pissed, I haven't seen one figure from the x23 wave and dudes are already finding the iceman wave! This is getting lame

Though removing the torso would be a b*tch and a half, I've swapped the capes,and I can tell you it looks solid.

dude you came up! i have never seen that on the pegs out here.

Yeah but they seem less likely to fall apart and more likely to take a chewing from a dog better....unless the dog eats it of course, and then the point is just moot.


I just think the stretch strike venom should've been it's cool prototype counterpart instead.

I'm thinking: Firelord Custom!

I'm thinking, JOHNNY STORM! Lol. Still need to find this bugger...

Naa. I dont know where they got taht design from- for 99% of his comic life, he's looked exactly like the SW version.
That odd white pattern is out of nowhere too (correct me of i'm wrong Arkers!).

Hmmm...I should use the legs for a Super Skrull! Then sell "paraplegic Johnny" as a "Super rare SDCC variant prototype" on ebay for a thousand dollars, take that cash and buy 200 Sentinels and have a diorama of all the MU figures jsut surrounded by a sea of Sentinels!

Unlikely, but hey, dumber things happen all the damn time- some woman just won the Powerball because the clerk she bought the ticket from mispunched one number on her number list!
