Decided to go with lord marvel and make my Loki bad ass. He just needs a decent staff now. I'll try to get a savage oppress or whomever has a decent staff. Maybe mess around with that cube as well to fit between the blade

Probably just trying to cross-promote since marketing will be ramping up for the movie soon. The actual movie figures are street dated for 2/27, so still a couple months out. Pre-orders are supposed to go live on online retailer sites on 1/27.

Thats all that figure needed was a cape. :)

It really isn't much, but it made a world of difference. I moved him from the back of the bus to the front of the shelf next to thanos.

Messing around with my comic pack Cap and put Commander Rodgers head on him. Like it alot more now. My cap collection.

He does look quite awesome with a cape. Glad I bought extras of Doom to make damaged Doombots (with Dollar Tree Teminators) I'll grab a cape and join the bandwagon!

Sorry, I wasn't trying to bust your balls man. I thought maybe there was a reason behind needing four of them. I'm not as up-to-date with comics as I used to be .

Grabbed this from another board. You guys ever seen this before?

I'm confused..I am drinking though.

What, have I seen assholes before? Yeah, they hang out near the Hot Wheels, and watch my every move when I look for anything. I had one following me around once in case I might set something down. I left a movie series Thor in the LEGO aisle to see if he'd take the bait.

I see that too sometimes, it's horrible. That's why i never put anything down unless i'm certain I wont get it. I put a DOTM camo colored star scream down thinking maybe not...but maybe...FUCK its gone already.

Ha ha. I meant in general "scalper's" at the stores...I'm fortunate enough where I haven't seen any in my neck of the woods. Than again maybe they scalp during the day :P?

HAHAHAAH! I love it! I have GREAT luck with Treasure Hunts and hard to find HotWheels, They literally just seem to fall in my lap.

When I see a sweaty, unshowered HotWheels collector hawking me, if i have a Treasure Hunt in my hand I bend and rip the card then put it back on the shelf in front of them, lol.

Ha ha seriously :P? I am as well am fortunate when on the hunt.

I remember hearing something about those "treasure hunt" cars. Exactly how rare are they? They seem to keep people coming back to the toy aisles. I would have figured an employee at the store would catch wind of something like that and snatch them up when they restocked.

I was at TRU today and I see this little kid and his mom... IDK... they must have been having a postponed Christmas shopping session or returned something and had to use the credit or whatever... anyway... I see him looking in the MU section (I was waiting for him to go away so I could linger there, lol).

He had a Guardians of The Galaxy pack and two or three MU figs (one of which was Spider-woman) and he was trying to decide if that was what he really wanted. Anyway, he was taking kinda long so I go to the Joe section in the next aisle and when I come back they are gone and the Guardians 3 pack and MU figs are still there in a pile. Then I go to the register and see them there... the kid got a MU Sentinel instead. Smart kid. LOL.

Seriously, that is the first time I saw a kid buying MU stuff at TRU... it is usually suspicious dudes always checking out the MU section. LOL.

Loki is and should always be upfront lol..imo

Well, if your a half retarded diecast collector they must be kinda rare, I just sold a few on Ebay. One sold for $24 plus shipping. So for me it feeds my MU, dollar in, 24 out? I'm game.

Yeah in WalMarts and the like the stockers definitely swipe them. I find them in oddball places, K-marts, Big Lots, Walgreens. I have two in the car in fact that I found yesterday. Two! I hear of collectors saying they've gone years without finding one. I've probably found 2-300 of them in the last 5-6 years, without really trying hard.

I just keep my eyes peeled when I'm out. Nowadays they have a green stripe on the card so the are fairly easy to spot.

You guys have no idea about scalpers, (maybe you do) look at my local scalp shop, all from retail they do not get stuff from the manufacturer.

$24 for a $1 investment? Damn, nice work! With my luck I'd never find a single one.

What are these cars? Hot Wheels?

Ha ha saw they're facebook. How long have they been in business? I remember you posting this a few pages back...There stand reminds me of the ones in Frank N Sons as well...Wonder if they do business there as well...

Yep, Hot Wheels. The cards look like this:

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

There is a series of 12 each year (15 last year and this year)

Also they got sneaky and started making them stealthier like this:

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

Oh wow that's nice. Great way to make $ for the hobby though that's for sure!

Oh, to keep things on topic:

Do you think the ToyBiz Broods (93-94ish) would be too large for MU? I'll grab a couple pics for comparison with whatever I have lying around.....
