behindthemask, the flames are from a 6'' SOTA Street Fighter SDCC exclusive M. Bison

Damn, that's sick, I love it when 6'' bases and accessories seem like they were meant for smaller scale figures, they just suit them so much better and make a more dramatic pose come to life. I do refuse to pay $30+ for the figure just to get the blast effect, however I will keep an eye our for parts lots on the odd chance, so thanks for the info.

"I'm about the same spot. I really don't want to pay so much for crappy figures I only want to check a box. Sweet, one of a kind figures? Sure. Crappy variants that are just running changes? Ugh. Awful figures that were just shortpacked to begin with? Now I'm depressed" Peter Parker
I'm not depressed at my situation or would say the figures left are crappy variants at all, I'm just more picky of what I'm collecting which is limited my easy choices. Instead of just going to walmart and being happy, I know of 2 many awesome figures to waste my $$. Ex why waste $$ on bad transformers just because they're new when you can save your $$ and buy a badass g1 figure for the same as getting a pile of crap you really don't want.
I have a large majority of MU figures that are the chore of what I want. there's exception which unfortunatley are costly, like galactus, nick fury mail away,deathmask archangel, xforce archangel, vision both version, 70th anniversary set I want just to keep moc, same with the black and white cap figure. I have a lcs that has sdcc thor,cap and spidey for $30 each, I already snagged Thor just need to get the other 2 at some point.
The rest of my collection focuses on ironman in 6'' and 12'' and lets just say other stuff. When it comes to Ironman I want every 6'' figure made from Marvel so includes legends and select. I'm only missing series 5 from the legends, 1 is stealth variant from series 1, the 2nd is the Thorbuster variant Destroyer, and last but not least the faceoff series warmachine/mandarin set., and now the new damn versions that came out ,reg and stealth. Then I can say I have every marvel legends Ironman figure.
I need 4 Marvel Select, and then after that my focus is aimed towards making myself a nice 6'' avengers team, get my baf giantman and fin fang foom completed and maybe a few others, more flight stands, bases, upgrade my cabinents, once all that stuff is said and done it would be me just going and picking up the odd new MU/ML that sparked my interest. I do however have 2 weakspots other then IM and MU and that's Hellboy and Deadpool,I really want all 3 ML deadpool figures each is $100+ on ebay, same with my remaining ironman figure they're atlest $60-100 range + shipping. I would love to get into hot toys figures, but for that I need a better job and a larger place. Hellboy I just want figures, but because they're no longer made and the market is strong for him, the damn toys aint cheap and when they are I'm always broke lol.
I maybe taking a break from buying after a the new few items get taken care of, as I want to finish up my tattoo.
