the other answer is I discovered you can make tons of money posting them on Ebay and asking for ludicrous prices...and suckers will pay it!!

You know, I was talking about this with a new collector friend, and I really don't think we should fault each other for overpriced eBay listings. Hooking each other up is very cool, but the eBay community isn't this community, so we shouldn't crap on each other for listing stuff over there.

I believe it was brilliantly stated, "I put things on eBay to make a profit, I offer things on ToyArk to hook up my friends."

There is a grey area about things being listed over there and not here, but we all know each other, and we're all trying to help each other out. There's no reason to give anyone around here crap for using evilBay the way it's already used.

This isn't really directed at anyone or any specific situation, just some general feelings I had about how we refer to things over there. I hope everyone feels the same way.

This box from ToyWiz on the doorstep when I got home from work certainly made up for the Death of Vision.

Punisher? Paint is just as bad as previously stated.
Kang? BEAUTIFUL! But mine has like a razor cut near his wrist and there's like a chunk hanging off.
Scarlet Witch? Perfect.
She-Hulk? Perfect.
FF Spider-Man? Had a chunk of melted plastic on his chest. I pulled it off carefully but it took part of the black chest Spider logo off.

Blah.

FASTEST Meh generation ever.

I love Wave 19. I personally think with the range of characters, colors, and new sculpts, it's far and away the best wave they've ever produced. No production issues would ever take that away from it.

Nope, not better. Doom's eyes are horrible and the perspective on the whole piece is way off. There's way better Doom covers out there, but maybe you were more happy with the ladies?

It is so easy when you have a little Girl who loves Marvel as much as Stan Lee lol

Can't wait! I love how we have a junior member of the ToyArk group! If only my kids cared about Marvel...

Lol, I know, I just momentarily bought that Hasbro would do something like this in some other weird Avengers line pack.

Didn't mexico get them also?

Yup, Mexico HAS them. They keep getting Prof's and Jubilees at least. Don't hear much about Blastaar. Cant' wait to get these myself!

I'd trade more with Mexico, but shipping is nuts. First it's expensive, and then at some point there's no guarentee you'll get your item? Yikes!

Dude, your work is AMAZING. This is the best Spidey Head paint job I've ever seen. All we need is for you to put this head on every single other Spidey you have, lol.

I don't know how to tell you this, but at the SDCC Marvel Hasbro panel, they said they're done with Movie lines. They're moving on to TV tie-in lines.

Yup, those are the only two so far. Even the Spidey ones don't have those.

Lol, I'm a little sad I know what a Foundation garment is.

All hail the Queen!

Hell Ya. I can't wait for season 3. I can already hear the theme song in my head.

I'm not sure all of them have been in the black version. Spidey and Sue for sure, but I don't remember the rest. Of course, I stopped reading FF about 11 issues in...

Excitement for season 3 cannot be understated. If only it ran for longer seasons!

Easily Kang. He's such an off-beat character it's amazing to finally get him. He's a villain, an AVENGERS villain, super weird, and a whole new sculpt? Incredible. If I liked pedophile-Kraven more he might've come close.

Once Scarlet Witch is received at our returns facility, we will send a new replacement. If there is a production delay and the same figure is not available we will replace it with a product of equal value."

i think i'm mainly afraid of getting a replacement Thor or Falcon. ebay prices on her is a bit too pricey and my patience kinda sucks.

You're right to be afraid, I think. You really should write back and express that their version of 'value' may not equate yours, and if the figure cannot be replaced with the same one, you should get the original figure back along with a coupon for money off future Hasbro products.

That would seem fair to me.


I updated my collection pics a little. Things are still in flux, but I figured I'd take a a couple interim pictures:
