I got this responce: "I just dont have Internet and I'm working on getting the figures hence why you have not gotten any pictures." Red flags all over this deal. No internet but he sent me several pms because he wanted what I had. I don't want people buying things just to make a trade with me. Or people who don't have dependable internet access trying to make deals. I have a feeling this is the same person people are talking about.

Without trust we have nothing, chances are most posters on here will never meet in person, but that still doesn't give you assholes out there lookin to scam people out of figs or money carte blanch to try to screw this community up.

This is a great site, lots of good honest people that really don't mind helping folks out in in the interest of sharing the love of the Marvel universe. And that is awesome, I've had nothing but awesome interactions with people on here and gotten the chance to acquire figs that I never thought I'd get. And that's really what it's all about. So whoever it is that sparked all this, and anyone out there that is thinking of trying to screw someone over on this site, go be an asshole somewhere else. Because we are all friends here.

I haven't posted in a while because I was laid off a couple months ago and I've been bummed out about it, as well as just feeling like I didn't have anything to add to the conversation, but this topic has been my slump buster because I've always tried to do what I can to help folks out on deals and I know a lot of other folks on here that tout the same mantra. There are too many good people on here to let a few bad apples ruin it.

@Lord Marvel, sorry to hear about your mod drama, espically since you are one of the best arkers out there, so be careful, they like to rule from their iron throne with an iron fist. I've learned that first hand and got the infraction to prove it. So tread lightly grasshopper.

On the appreciation front, plain and simple the Avengers movie, epically good, the avengers toys however, pretty much shit. That hulk is a travesty Hawkeye has a cool look but articulation sucks, loki's helmet shoulda been removeable nothing against Sam Jackson but I couldn't care less about that nick fury, his classic look and costume are so bad ass that it angers me that they don't release an updated one of the mail away with the new DD/BE body, so I've commissioned a custom from a buddy of mine using BE's body. As well as a custom that he already made himself that is Awesome and so I'm having one made for myself. I'll post pics as soon as they are done.

Also can't hate that new beast more, I'll get it just because I need a beast, but it looks like hot garbage. I'm really looking forward to Kraven so hasbro please stop shipping shitty avengers toys with ridiculous accessories that aren't worth the plastic the are made of and with steps backwards in terms of design and articulation, and focus on your awesome MU line.


I know that'll never happen since Avengers shattered box office records and now kids are foaming at the mouth to feed their tiny plastic crack addiction with sub par toys that they are to uneducated to realize how much they suck, but sometimes it feels good to vent.
