@Dark

I posted my perspective not as a personal challenge to you, nor an indictment of your character. The presentation of my take on the posting of other people's pictures in a space initially intended for members to post their own pics, is secondary (although, still a courtesy I consider important to be paid). The real issue, for me, is using other people's content without their knowledge, permission, or providing them proper credit. Especially in a space that's considered quasi artistic in nature. I'm well aware of the opinion that anything posted to the web is free game. This notion is very common and understandable. What I'm attempting to do is draw awareness to another opinion; that of artists and their feeling apprehensive when sharing their art for fear of exactly these sorts of appropriations. Feel free to post whatever you want, it's your prerogative and no one can stop you. My opinion on the matter is similar to my take on a number of things in life; all because I 'can' do something doesn't mean that I 'will' do it...but that's me.

bruh...I didn't take it like that at all...i'm as easy going as they come..
just throwing another opinion out there....
personally I just didn't want any newbs\semi-newbs to NOT post some hot shit they saw someplace, just because it wasn't theirs...
..and like stated..credit is due..if possible..

Well, your response to what I posted read a bit more defensive than what you are now suggesting. When you invoke language questioning "unspoken rules" in reference to what was a pretty innocuous post on my part, where else am I to go in my thinking?

But whatever, man...do what you chose.

fam you know...this is just healthy convo...opinions...toys..pics..fun..
Not to belittle anyone's love for the hobby (cause we all love it)..but none of this HERE, our venue/outlet/medium/forum, where we converge to do this together ...do I take all that serious..
We're good.

Of course, man! Always! lol

EDIT: Especially so considering you've finally gotten around to acknowledgement of the Blastmaster!!! Only the greatest evah...

...although, you could have credited him ;)

I'm the same way all about seeing the toys XD and the Edit I think I might have missed that too and I may have joined recently but a year I've been following this site don't think I ever saw the your :)

Here's a pic from ebay seller online from Thailand. I love the headsculpt.

Massive improvement over the previous one.

Indeed...but I'm not big enough a fan to think I need to upgrade..
unless of course later this fig is somewhere for 9.00 or so..or for a trade.

Whereas I never bought the previous figure (that head sculpt was unforgivably bad).

But then, I'm not a big Guardians fan, nor do I collect Marvel Legends.

I, however, am a huge Guardians fan!

And I own an embarrassing amount of their merch.
That new Star Lord head sculpt looks a lot better up close than I originally thought. I still prefer the long coat of the original, but it looks like I'll be buying that and displaying both.

Awesome shots!

HIGH FIVE!! You and I should be friends :) XD Yes I own 95% of the merchandise! and I have Guardians of the Galaxy on three different formats! I HONESTLY CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY HANDS ON STAR LORD! XD I always say it's like my personal Star Wars! Where I will go out of my way to collect everything and anything :D Honestly I just want it so badly lol

Hehe.
I know, right? Seeing new Guardians toys like

Even the Funko plushies, and I haven't owned any stuffed toy since I was seven. I swear on Cosmo's wet little nose that's exactly how I sold the movie when I was visiting my parents for a couple days over Christmas break, I was trying to convince my mom to watch Guardians of the Galaxy with me and told her it was my Star Wars. She's a Star Wars fangirl herself, so she immediately understood.

Nice to find others who share that enthusiasm. Show off your collection, sounds like it dwarfs even mine!
And thanks, Monte. Just trying to keep consistent with the fine quality displayed by so many others in this thread.

Sounds like we speak the same language! YAY! Aww thanks I'll definitely get to it. :D Can I use that gif as my signature? Because that's perfect XD And omg I like Funko too! And the plushies are freaking adorable! Did you see the Funko sets for GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2? I'm getting slayed by so many releases.

You keep being awesome, lady, and you can do anything you like. You may need to shrink the dimensions just a touch to keep it within allowable board signature parameters, but maybe it's fine. This forum doesn't seem to want to let me post special BB code revisions or switch to html, but the dimensions you probably want are 460 width and 196 height.

And yessss, this summer is going to be wallet-wrecking and I welcome it fully. Gonna be swimming through happy plastic things Scrooge McDuck style just to get to my front door, and I'm okay with that.

Woohoo! I honestly can't wait! ALL THE GOODIES ARE LIKE RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. I'm on a toy hunt currently for all kinds of things XD NAMELY STAR LORD LOL And thanks for the heads up on that. :) I'll see what happens :D

Did I spend entirely too much money on toys in 2016? Absolutely.
Do I regret it?
