  1. Dude thanks for the heads up! I have already gotten a Thundertank, but the Tower of Omens is on sale too for $20. That's great since I was going to order some perfume from amazon anyhow! Edit: Done and bought! I thought $40 was a bit much for what looked like minimal plastic, but $20 feels right
  2. I didn't get paid till today, so I had to pass on the sale. It is fine though, since the wife and I are setting limits on spending this year, I would have probably ended up with nothing but action figures (for some reason she hates that!) I know this isn't the thread for it, but if anyone out there got an extra Clawful and they don't want to rape a fellow TNI member, give me a shout! Congrats on all of you guys who got good deals. Clawful was really my most wanted figure, and I would have probably gotten a weapons rack and Megator and Green Goddess, but without Clawful, I can just pass on the others.
  3. Yeah man, I am guilty as charged for still having an SDTV! Honestly now that I think about it, I am the only person I know that doesn't have one already! It's kinda funny, I have a kick ass sound system setup in our bedroom, dolby 5.1 surround with a nice sub. The sounds from the game are great, when I play COD, the room is nothing up gun fire and being able to hear what direction it comes from sure does help at times too! Maybe I will get one with my income tax refund next year...
  4. That is a good idea! I have been eyeing the 6" figures but haven't gotten one yet. Sounds like Mumm-Ra will be the first!
  5. Yeah my cousin is lvling like crazy and he is really enjoying the game. Again, because of the SD TV, it cuts off the corners of the screens, like I can read part of the chats, but half of it is missing. I really need to upgrade my TV is the root of the problem! I will admit I had a lot of fun beating up Bizarro! It's a fun game, but I think the problems are on my end. Yeah for sure! I bet you can pick up Arkham Asylum for pretty cheap, it's pretty much the same game (but City is for sure the winner!) My cousin played the new one while vising not too long ago, he's a huge batman fan and I was surprised he had never played either game. After playing up here for a half hour or so, he went back home and bought Aslyum and is hooked!
  6. I think that is good news, it was nice to have that stretch we had last time, so I don't see it as a bad thing now. Rather then try and force a story and movie, it may be time for the cape to be hung up for a few years. I like this idea.
  7. man you guys love the arkham series I couldn't figure the first one out and ended up getting extremely frustrated Honestly man, I think you missed out if you gave up. Both games were overwhelming at first, but it's such a fun game! It's as close to being Batman as you can get. All the gadgets and riddles makes you feel like a lot has been thrown at you, but once you get into the game and understand how the game mechanics flow, it all weaves together. I'm not saying it's the greatest game ever, but it's for sure the best adventure super hero based game out there.
  8. Yeah I've seen they got him for dirt cheap, there are always plenty of him on the pegs at TRU too. Honestly I still do not have any villains from the show yet, but I will eventually. I was glad to see that the wave 2 should be getting here soon, that should generate some one chatter in this thread. I am SOOOO glad they are coming out with a regular, Mumma-Raa the ever living in the 4" line. I just couldn't bring myself to pay $15 for the one that is currently out, it's just not worth that to me.
  9. Sounds like people took advantage of the BF deals, good for you guys! As for me, well there really weren't any games I wanted too badly. I'm a one game at a time kind of guy, but I was able to pick up God of War 3 new from game stop for 10 bucks with my trade in and the sale, so that is a plus! I figure that will give me till Christmas to beat Batman (almost done) and then beat God of War 2 (never finished it). Still playing DCU, but there are times when it feels very repetitive so I can only play for an hour or so before I am bored again. I can't really read everything that is displayed on the screen either since I have an SDTV, so that may play into it as well. It's funny, I used to play non-stop COD Black Ops, but since Batman I haven't touched it at all.
  10. so if you buy a NOS drink it'll give you a code for a BBY skin? Yup! There was nothing on the can about it, just a code that it said to go and input to their website and it game me a "point" that I could buy a skin with, they gave me a code, and boom, download complete on the ps3! Go buy yourself a can, I think the offer is ending soon. Its ok to drink, but AMP is better
  11. Ahh! Another fresh pile of ThunderCats pics! I am liking what we have been shown so far. Im glad we are getting an 8" Cheetara, but we HAVE to have a Panthro! Ive got the four main cats now in 4", can't wait to get more! This is a fun line, hands down!
  12. is getting caught up on Workaholics! How could I have missed this show? Pure gold!

      It's called the Boy Scout rule of D's, and it's a real thing

  13. Oh wait, thats these guys right? I've got the DVD set, I should know this!
  14. Meh, I'm kinda good with Mattycollector, though I love this quote "but nothing, and I mean NOTHING, compares to our massive Black Friday Sale..... we'll have well over 50 items available, all at 10% off!" Lol, really? nothing, I mean NOTHING! Way to ham it up guys! Seriously, I doubt anything would be the 60% off fire sale of the GB on Halloween!
  15. I love these kinds of things! People feel like they are making a difference, and it's kinda funny. I mean really, when a company is banking BIG time with this sort of thing, do people really think they care about an online petition? Hell no! If you don't want people to have to work on Thanksgiving day, DON'T SHOP! If you feel strongly enough, just don't go to the store! Send the message where it really hurts, the wallet. Don't give these stores your money, THEN you can probably email them and let them know about your choice. Yeah it's probably like sand off a beach to them, but "signing" a meaningless online petition is futile. Personally, I do not shop on Christmas. It's the same principle as far as I am concerned. I feel everyone should have that day off (just like Thanksgiving). Yeah people will ALWAYS have to work certain jobs, no matter what day it is, but I am not going to add to it. I never buy anything on Christmas, it's just how my parents raised me.
  16. Larry, as usual you are spot on! Yeah I know they can't do a GB2 Tully, but I figured it was a wishlist anyhow. I know Rick Morranis is living fat after that Flinstones payday, but a GB2 Tully complete with earmuffs is ideal to me. Ive seen a few nice customs, but I know I'll never buy one or make one on my own. Now that you mention it, I do remember something about a Peoplebusters box set, I wonder if it will have a Winston though...
  17. Another weekend gone, and more of the Joker's henchmen lay on the ground by Batmans feet! You guess it, played more Arkham this weekend, it's such a fun game and I love doing side missions, I find myself roaming the streets sometimes, just looking for some fist fights. I am probably the last person who owns this game to find out, but I bought a can of NOS energy drink and downloaded the Batman Beyond skin. Pretty cool looking and it wasn't a terrible drink, so it was worth it! Also played some DCU and I about doubled my play time. I changed the font size and changed the screen so it would fit on my SD TV, but it is still hard to read txt. Been a great game, though switching between the games, I keep pressing wrong buttons on both sides of fence.
  18. Guess nobody has gotten any minimates in a while, but I'll share what I got. TRU has the second RGB wave, so I snagged a Peter/Winston and StayPuft/Tully. They didn't have the other ghost packs, but Im glad I was about to complete the set of busters and finally get a regular Stay Puft (my other is the explosion one)
  19. Yesterday I went to sign on and the PSN was down, for a few minutes I started to worry that it would be down for a month like last time. So I spent some more time at Arkham City, such a good game. Challenging but not so much so that I want to quit and move on. The boss battles are kinda easy too, but its a good story all together. Didn't get a chance to play and DCU, though I am hoping to switch to the pvp server soon.
  20. That is great news! I like that they feel confident enough to say Wiley Kit and Kat would come out as a two pack, that bodes well for the line. I hope Tygra is one of the last ones we get, since it will probably be the same one we have already gotten but smaller (I hope they give it an ab crunch, it makes sense) Is 14.99 the current SRP for the modern 6"? My TRU charges 17.99 for those and 19.99 for the 8", and I just live in a crappy little town with low annual incomes, I could see that kinda price in a big city with higher incomes, but not here.
  21. Yep, you're weird. Actually I'd like those too, if the line had lived long enough to where we also had more secondary characters too. I'd like to get those only if we already figures like either Janine, Mayor Lenny, and Janoz (sp?) not to mention a GB2 Tully! I think it was Jangonate who mentioned a casual, no proton pack look too, like when they were in the firehouse and they had just hired Winston (BTW, it felt like everyone was smoking except for Egon, the nerd, I mean brain) On the haul front, went to TRU last night and picked up RGB Peter/Winston and Tully/StayPuft minimates. Is it me, or did these go up in price? It was like $7.99 a pop, maybe I am just too cheap, but I thought it was $6.99. Oh well! These are so awesome, I love the little guys. Just need the ghosts and I will be set! I guess there are no plans for the line past these two waves, are there?
  22. Eh, Im kinda good on the Mumm-Ra-mobile. Same thing with that armor fighter, though I think gold Lion-O does look cool, but not $30 cool. I was kinda hoping to see what figures are being made, like Cladius and whoever else.
  23. That sounds pretty cool. I honestly haven't touched my 360 in over a year, but this and Gears of War 3 make me want to wipe the dust off of it.
