Did you still buy it? It will pay off in the long run.

No, they have a few of them and still marked up at £9 each (about $14).

My TRU doesnt drop prices on stuff for YEARS lol (and then its only if the line was a complete failure....Green Lantern/Prince of Persia etc)

The pay off I was referring to was keeping your wife engaged in collecting. Really awesome that she does that for you.

On another note, arkers be on the alert that avengers earths might heroes will be back this sunday along with ultimate spidey. Every time I watch them I get the motivation to either buy figs I didn't care for in the past, customize ones, or recreate scenes from that episode. I can't wait and I hope hasbro will stop teasing us with pics of the new wave.

thanks martian, i had to mix the paint to get close to the cartoon color.
lol thanks, ive been doing alot of xmen customs and each time my x's get better.
your a lucky man my friend. i need to find me one hopefully one day while im toy hunting and so happens shes a hunter aswell and we both go to the same TRU not knowing were gonna clash for the same fig. shes on one end of the store, me on the other and were running to the mu section to snag them figs before anybody does lol then we spot that one fig reach at the same time to get it hahaha and bam! clash for it. in the end we end up shareing it haha nice story right lol.

big boobs and butt is what makes me keep on reading them lol.
i really whant jean to come back. and show hope whats up haha.

thanks bro, thats my 4th one, i plan on makeing more. hes such a gnar dog character.

Ya I do love it when the wifey tries to hunt for me as well:P It's never the right figure but hey all good.

It shows she cares and fully accepts the plastic crack addiction. Lol. Thats major brownie points.

Marvel Universe 3.75 Appreation Thread
 

Been going to local stores for about two and a half weeks looking for 2 packs (Mr. Sin/Gambit or Thanos/Adam W)! And, I know fellow arkers could help me out, but sometimes the feeling of being "out in the wild" is good for the soul! But, will hit you fellow arkers up for figures in the future! Still kinda new! Anyway...found nothing at TRU, Wal-Mart, and Target. Gave in and went to the popular LCS! Did not find 2 packs, but found 2 MU single figures (MU's Arch and Astonishing Wolverine)! Did not get the 2 pack, but got 2 bad ass single figures! Go figure...no pun intended! Happy hunting fellow arkers! oh, and love the paint and detail on Arch (one on MU's best figure) and Wolvie (growing on me because of the detail in his arms, and for a 3.75, if that, he looks so bulky!

both baller figures Yukon, nice score

I remember that figure going for 15 last year on ebay.

Congrats... IMO MU Archangel and Astonishing Wolvie (assuming you found one with good paint apps) are two of the most visually striking figures in the MU line; great palette of colors that would add to any display.

Commander Rogers is my favorite Cap fig (I count him as a Cap fig, lol) and those headswaps look sweet.

I think I need that spawn alley...any idea how much it goes for?

I was on evil bay earlier and it was like $60-$70

I paid $25 for mine plus shipping off eBay last week.

I was able to get mine for a similar price off ebay. The shipping cost is where you may pay the most. Be patient when lurking those ebay prices.

yeah I noticed...people are asking too much, and they are not selling at those high prices

I agree w Symbiote about keeping the wife engaged in our collecting habits. It pays off. My wife says she would like to pick up figures she comes across, but as she says "you have everything... and when u don't have something, you end up getting it down the road." Which is true. Its the thought that counts. She supports my collecting as long I take care of the "adult stuff" first... which I do.

My gf rocks, she won't let me go to a con or show without her, she always threatens to dress up like power girl...

you serious i payed $21 shipped new in box on ebay..guess i was lucky

Yeah my fiancée has a similar attitude to my collecting, when I found the legends wave 2 she bought my Madame masque as she knew I wanted it But didn't wanna spend so much since I was already buying Thunderball and Fantomex.

Everything stays in the mancave and she's happy lol.

Alright, need some help. Someone did an mu super skrull annihilation version. I looked in the custom completed thread and couldn't find it. Thanks in advance.

that 70th red skull is so cool.

too short i was going to a head swap with the green variant body
