  1. haha Feats, OUCH, I wondered if other dirty minded individuals saw that then thought of the duality purpose of this Butma..ahem Batman "statue", it's wrongness brings to mind the Hulk Fist in the Hulk board game I seent at the mall the other day. Also to confirm my Toyron status even moreso, I read the article about the Green Lanter 2 pack about John Stewart and immediately (I'm DC illiterate mind you) thought oh great 1st he gets his own Star Wars figure now this, then I saw the pic attached and realized my genuis......also whats up with the Latern Sniper Rifle? is every one tired of lil lanterns as Latern Corps accessories?.....
  2. I DVR the old He-man Filmation episodes on the weekends now, its good to visit an old friend and his helpful end of the show hint about loving one's brother said in a tone that doesn't sound like he means it or wants to say it neverless I wouldn't mind owning & watching the full episodes, nostalgia lane can be healing & soothing to this savage beast. The episodes I DVR are meant for HD and I still haven't joined the year 2000 yet (my tv is still a box that weighs 60 pounds) so when they do cut away shots & landscape shots I only get awkward sidescrolling that looks off, sometimes in group shots I get He-min talking to Teelas shoulder or they aren't in the shot at all. & I know just from my backwards memories the episodes I see are severly edited to limit them to time constraints, cause we viewers need 40 minutes of commercials per hour, so my spidey sense tells me the stories are fractured because of shaky editing due to cramming more commercials into my fun filled hour of He-min programmed at 4 am on Saturday mornings, She-ra's on at 5pm which isn't fair whatabout ladies 1st? Another beef I have is, Prince Adam has this awkward creeper voice, I could imagine him being a "breather" over the phone asking about what color my funderwear is, and He-man himself has no "inside voice", he speaks his mind at full volume w/steroid rage when he grunts at picking up & throwing nearly everything at everyone. & is it me or does the Sorceress remind you of some stay at home mom who has children but never see them, as she wanders around a dirty house disorientated from indulging on too much Xanex and red-boxed wine? why is Orko allowed to commit borderline treason when his crazy highjinks create major problems that nearly kill everyone and he never gets so much as a night in the hole or used as He-mans post work out towel. & what would be so wrong in telling Teela that PA & HM are the same person? Ducan allows this charade to continue w/out caring about the psychological damage it will do when she does finally find out(when ever PA goes missing she runs after him concerned for his safety & 50% of the time becomes a unwitting victim caught in the middle of danger), I mean everyone in Eternia cept Teela and Team Skeletor knows PA is HM, that's like .001 of the population. Buttt other than that I love the show for all that it is and all that it isn't, and if you dudes thought the New He-Man adventures were bad (I've never seen them personally but I've heard things, bad awful things about it) then I implore you to watch a few episodes of the DIC G.I. Joe adventures (this may get me into trouble as I know a few fans of that era are on here sorry guys). I really tried to watch those and felt like God had abandoned Earff at that point......all right maybe I can find some of those old He-man episodes still in the clearance clarence bin at TRU......and I leave you with a "I have the power".......good day
  3. I'm torn like so much wet t-paper on these "reality shows". I like the exposure that the toyz are getting, its cool to see other collectors share the same passion that I have for our childhood memories. But do they have to make all of them look f-ing crazy & nerdy? On some occasions I commend the Toy Hunter (maybe it should be Toy Guy, Toy man, Toy boy, Toy finder, Toy Whisperer, Toy Pirate, Toy Gouger, Hunter is just too hurtful after losing Steve Irwin but it would make good TV to see Jordan get stung a few times by some Stingrays? okay maybe justa Scorpion or maybe bitten by a Gila Monster for the season finale?) for his tenacity, we've all been there, staring an overpricing Peter in the face trying to barter old school style but he still thinks hes got gold for his broken faded paint non-MOC bounty, but still we either come to an agreement or use the walk away tactic (which works about fitee % of the times), when I gets it for a good price I always channel Hannibal from the A-team, lighting up my imaginary Stogie w/my S eating grin. Yes I know being buried by stuff is bad and cleanliness is next to Dogliness but cmon. Let a Collector collect. Crom bless the friends who think their collector buddies are steps away from keeping their P in a jar & may never get laid again, but I had to kinda sorta agree with the Robot Guy, if I was making more monees I would definitely buy more toys haha. People collect matchboxes. STD's and belly buddon lint (I've seent it) and I know it's compelling TV to normies I guess to show the mania involved with collecting. I sorta feel bad for some of the dudes selling to Toy Hunter for less than what they want but also grimace when I hear the appraisers overprice some of the stuff(collection interv) and the dudes that sell their most prized possessions (Godzilla guy &T-formers guy) for cash that they are prolly going to buy other toys with or hand over to their families who don't appreciate the sacrifice of finding these treasured items(I feel bad for them), half the fun is the hunt, but maybe they'll hunt em again? who knows, but its koolio to see the spotlight on more than just comix and baseball cards for once. Then again on my hunts through g-sales and swap meets everyone seems to think their old broken missing box and accessories toys are gold now. Either way I'll keep collecting till the day I'm carted off against my will to a rest home, looney bin, cardboard box behind the circle K or to join Crom or that other great big collector in the sky? Also I've been exposed to other toys I've never even seen before like the old Lord of the Rings figs those were kool and I dig that............
  4. All kidding aside is it wrong to want to buy the playset paint it black and blue and turn it into an "special dungeon" for Destro and the Baroness to entertain? I guess I can repaint Mindbender to look like the gimp from Pulp Fiction........
  5. As for me, I have no Chad only Crom and occasionally Zul, looks like Jinx has upped her ante, most are starting at 35-40$ w/out shipping, so much for buying her on the cheap. I think I'll buy some sculpting putty and attach boobs on to one of my gi joe Retreation (used to be Retaliation, its my in-joke amongst me myself and my imaginary half Peyton Manning half Michael Vick superfriend who feels the need to throw footballs to everyone on the field as well as in the stands) Red-Ninjas (incidentally I must be special I bought the red ninja almost a year before the movie is sposed to come out).........
  6. Oh great now I want an army of Wargs to chew on Legolas in his pretty green dress........well see how the rest of the characters turn out.....
  7. At this point I'm saving up for the last lion (voltron) comin out next month. So with great reluctance I passed on the Snake-men (I had to hate myself in the morning but had to force my self to love myself that night (no not in that way)). I'm kinda crossing my fingers for a second production wave before Xmas? cmon Santa I build you up all year to the kids, help a muther out mannn. I still haven't decided on the Palace Guards they look bada$$ as well, Crom knows when I raise the funds for them they'll be gone like so much Mekanek. King Hiss is also slithering his way into my heart. I really hate being so indecisive especially when most of the figs I wanted from this line are here and gones. Yes I do know about the miracle of Ebay and Amazon but my vow of monetary chastity is just about broken, I've given it up too easily to Wally-world (she's a giver), Marshalls (my Thundercats headquarters) TJ Maxx (I hear she gives greeeeat helm er um discounts) Ross......(okay I had no idea it was a dude in a wig)......So please Matty bring back the Motu vs DC 2 packs at retail, it can be like a 7th line production Beastman with a totally off colored George Hamilton like hues, I don't give an S, you would totally have my lunch money.....damn shoulda bought a Chief Carnivus last month........oh and do any of you dudes ever post dios of your Motu classics, it would be koolio to see army builders dios.....thanx hunters yada yada
  8. Mannnn I'm really jonesen for the 2pack snakemin set on matty but really want a to pay for an overpriced Man-at-arms length for the same price on amazon, please Crom tell me what to do....

  9. Holllee shizzle son, I found the whole set...butt due to some limited funds (totally need to borrow a sally struther's wig and beg for lost quarters found in america's couches, I'm sure I could be like a thousandaire after sucha fundraiser), I snagged up SEyes's and Stormy (fistpump FISTPUMP whooo). I was oot garage saleing (found alot of 4 inch Gundams & 3 Marvel Legends atta sale just minutes b4 this score) on the eastern front of the valley of swamp (monsoon season is here). I had wandered into the 4 mile area where there are like 3 f-ing DG's (no kidding) but nary a DG near where I live. I hadda answer the call of over filled bladder (my lil sis called BS, she knows a joezle hunt when she hears it), butt kidding aside I hadda P badddly. I wandered in and walked the 2 miles to the back of the store and found the doors locked to their Tajmahal's of baffrooms. I walked slowly carefully as not to wake my bladder on my quest to find the cinder-block attached to a baffroom key. On the way up the toy aisle (how convenient my walk) I happened to curse all toys not Gi Joe clogging the toy section. When my attention was captured and stolen to my lost wave of Joes!! They were all there but my funds were tight right and no-where in site. So I took Stormy and Snakes up to the front, told the new guy to hold them while I used the facilities. I came back purchased my collectibles and all was right with world, I felt like Ralphie w/his Red Rider BB gun......Keep watching the aisles madmen & wimmin.....dreams really eventually maybibly come true....
  10. Jeezus Pleezus I just found out the larger classic T-cats are 8", not 12" not 6" or 6&1/2" okay can they just stick w/one fricken size and call it a day.....I am a toyron......
  11. So far I haven't seen any sight of the Armor, but I kick myself (been doin alot of that these days, I'm stupiddextrouse) cause I saw boff of the cycles at ross, one for 7 the other on clearance clarence for 5.49$.......and passed (I guess I thought I wouldn't score a T-tank? but that kinda negative thinking is against everything the Sword of Omens is forged from)..but as long as I got the tank I'm happy I never had the original so I hope this fills one of the millions of holes in the horrible pock marked acne that is my childhood happiness.....now big daddy needs a Panthro 4" and 6" (jeez one could run w/that any # of ways).....good luck WJ I've seen the cycles mostly at the Ross's. So far they are both at Walmart here and the prices need to go down more for me to grab them I was at Wallyworld last night buying paint to redo a bedroom andddd I was mystically drawn (if not fanatically) to the clearance aisle there. Clearance is becoming a farce at Wahhmart as they seem to only offer 20% off (whattabahgain) lately, for most of their clearance. 50 & 75% are a rarity these days it seems. So I pushed pass all the Young Justice for 2.50 I would love to have the Hall of Justice Set but I don't care for the figs sooo maybe I'll snag that up laters. Aneehoo, I found a Thunder thunder Thundertanks hoooooooo aplenty & also quite a few Tower of Omens there all marked at 15$ I found 1 Armor still at regular price and they had a Classics 6" Mumra (fistpump oooooh) for 4.50 and the last 2 cycles they had also for 4.50 (lil high for the bikes but it's nice add on), once again confirming my sickness cause I'm almost broke b4 payday I picked them up for a good time. I hadda leave the enemy lizard cannons behind they had like 8 of those. All I ever really saw at retail for bad guys was Mummy Mumra/Steriod Mumra and the Lizard Canyon soooo thats an outgunned enemy force I did see a kool looking bad guy on one of the cards but if he was released I never saw him at retail. I hate to sound like a cherry picker but I hafta Clearance Clarence most of my toyz other wise I would be broke paying full price for everything that came out. Thundercats wasn't a line I wasn't into till I seen a few of the episodes on CN and nelly nostalgia started calling to me.....I'm gonna bust out my Thundertank this weekend and take a looksee....oh and I have to make a correction I purchased the 6" classics not 12" (there aren't any 12" as I'm a toyoron sometimes about scale size) at Tj Maxx-that would be Lion-o and Tigra.
  12. So far I haven't seen any sight of the Armor, but I kick myself (been doin alot of that these days, I'm stupiddextrouse) cause I saw boff of the cycles at ross, one for 7 the other on clearance clarence for 5.49$.......and passed (I guess I thought I wouldn't score a T-tank? but that kinda negative thinking is against everything the Sword of Omens is forged from)..but as long as I got the tank I'm happy I never had the original so I hope this fills one of the millions of holes in the horrible pock marked acne that is my childhood happiness.....now big daddy needs a Panthro 4" and 6" (jeez one could run w/that any # of ways).....good luck WJ I've seen the cycles mostly at the Ross's.
  13. 1. My favorite Ninja weapon is my mind, because I hear that it's a terrible thing to waste (ninja please). 2. I tend to leave it lying round most places and it does turn up now and then to hurt others who play w/it. But for the most part my mind is as sharp as a wait what were we talking about again?.....
  14. Heyyyy new Thundertanks are in early this year! I seent it at Marshalls for 12.99, it comes w/Snarf but sans/figs and imaginary funnage must be supplied by you....

  15. Hookay last week at Garage Sales I snagged up a DC Justice League Unlimited (I'm DC illiterate so when they are a more obscure character I'm atta loss for a name) and Gobot Jeepers Creepers (sure I know most of my Gobots (jeez like 20 years later) I'm an idiot savant when it comes to useless info), Mr Creeper's only failing is his arms sag which makes the wheels sag outward but still koolio as I used to have him till my mom sold him at her garage sale (Great Toy Un-fair of 89'). Mom mom took the F (no pun intended sickos) outta fun when it came to weeding out my old now non-existent collection. Those 2 were fitee cents apeice (50 cents to norms). Let's see what else.....This week I scored very awesomely Marvel Legends BAF Beta Ray Bill (sans Modok Butt-jet pack butt with Comic still intact). I also scored Spidermin Origins Scorpion, Rhino, Mysterio, & Spidermin (another line? I'm not sure) Doc Ock & Demogoblin? w/were all 5$ apeice or 5figs for 20$!! Outstanding gentlemen seller (kudos to you and your garage sale, he had all kinds of kewl stuff Marvel, Star wars & WWF (wrestlers are animals too) figs galore all for the same price. Incidentally I went back to see if I had missed anything, most of his stuff had cleared out, I was onna roll that morning I stopped and dug around a small box of random broken toyz at another garage sale & I came up with a re-issue Constructicon Mixmaster? maybe related to Mixmaster Mike? distant couzins? and a Japanese Matchbox Passenger Stair Truck for Fitee cent a piece as well.....there's Pawtuckett Gold in them there hills, deserts, whathaveyou......much luck to the weary hunters and madmen......
  16. So far at Marshalls & Ross & Tj Maxx & Walmart- I have found and purchased 12" Classic Lion-o & Tigra for 8$ a piece, Tower of Omens 15$, 4" (new adventures) Lion-o, Cheetara, Tigra, Deluxe Mumra for 4$ apiece, (new Adventures) 6" Lion-o, Tigra, Mumra for 8$ apeice, and Tada!!! the Updated Thundertank!! 14$ at Tj Maxx-its a sad thing when one has sixth sense for finding toyz and not finding a real job, money, missing persons, curley's lost gold, or dignity and self confidence missing since high school. I was out w/my lady and ready to head back to the ranch, and something called me from across the metroplex parking lot. Its a low murmur that only appears when wanted toyz are near, and refuses to be put back to bed when I ignore it. It's prolly the voice of my inner manchild stubbornly refusing to sit down and pay attention. (funny when I used to drink I never heard any voices but saw dead people everywhere). Sooo I stopped in and picked up their last Thundertank and left behind 2 Tower of Omens? for 15$ apiece, they had a few other kool things but those were not Cat-related.......good luck hunters
  17. If they just had 13 solid figs that were out of the park, I think I would be in. But I only really want maybe 4 of em & I don't wanna pay 50 per pre-order or Ebay (jeez remember Dialtone? last I saw he was over 150$). I'm still trying to figure out a fair trade to barter for an SDCC Jinx....
  18. They actually did not make a Black Widow Well maybe that was the reason I never saw or bought her (haha) I've only glanced at the back of the Card 2 times (all the eye candy is on the front) and scanned the lineup that I was missing out on and I coulda swore I saw her, or maybe it was that Hawkeye was just too sexy looking, butt oddly enough Loki is more effeminate looking. Well for now I have my Hulk and thats smashing enough......thanks for the heads up
  19. There's a mom and pop closeout store in the far reaches of the mormom galaxy that is Mesa, AZ. I used to go to the Tuesday morning there to snag up discounted Joes and whatnot. Alas that store closed and the damn fool that I am never noticed this mom and pop store right next door. I wandered in there one day and found POC Joes and Marvel Uni. figs for 4 bux a peice granted the boxes/cards were damaged but I don't keep packaging (no room for nothing but plastic gold). Aneeways Toyz there are more hit than miss so its kewl. I found Neca's Shaman Pred, City Hunter and Stalker? They had em for 9$ apeice so I picked upa City Hunter granted the box was toast but I take most of my stuff out and display display and play.......kool figs though, I wanted to collect them all!
  20. + I noticed here locally on Craigslist, Swapmeets and Garage Sales people are trying to sell their broken a$ toyz for bookoo bux. We all know any toy is worth what a collector will pay for it, meaning if you really have to have it you would prolly play most prices that are being asked for it. Butt I saw a dude selling some old Joe vehicles and he wanted over 300 for his small collection (prolly round 9 vehicles) all in various states of disrepair and cracked plastic dreams missing wheels, weapons and riders? I've bought fixer-upers (GI Joe Whale prolly 60% incomplete for 25 cents!) and have slowly started piecing it back together. I even found the GI Joe General (incomplete) and Shuttle (also incomplete) for 1$ a peice! The sellers were tired of these items taking up space and were happy to let them go, as they never used them anymore. I even passed the General onto a friend of mines child w/he played w/till his stepbrother sat on it (another toy returns to the earff from whence it came) upon hearing the news I poured out some Kool-aid on the curb for the general. So I've been to a few sales where I politely declined to pay upscale prices for broken S. Sometimes when I'm wearing my sports jacket w/leather elbow patches and my professors pipe & glasses, I tell them that if its still new in the box and all the acessories are still w/it maybe its worth that but really if its yellowed & broken you really can't ask too much for it (guy with the2 broken wheels on the super powers batmobile selling for 20$ I'm thinking of you and your dreamy broken collection of batmobiles past and present) he did sell me his foreclosed Wayne Manor for 2$ so he was good people when the dust cleared. So I think these shows kinda give some people the idea that all their toyz are plastic gold (Pawtuckett Tea). I do like to see other collectors passions and hear some history of Toy lines but yes I agree they do spin the show to make some of our fellow collectors look insane. It is "reality television" after all......
  21. Upon summoning my spidey sense, my 6ith sense, horse sense and fading sense of decency I suggested to my gf that we frequent the local establishments in the pursuit of clearance clarence deals. We took a small trip up the country to one of my favorite Ross's and Target shopping center. Terget alas was bare of any real clearance fun cept maybe 2.98 for the Batman series Penguin mobile? a giant rubberduck from the movie (seriously who greenlights this S? I can think of half a dozen other Batman (pronounced Batmin) adversarial vehicles that need to be made before that yellow turd on four wheels) and the Batmobile w/Armor shell?wtf? my gf bought that for her son for xmas (if your on here man, I apologize, I ruuned Xmas yet again, last Xmas I told him Santa retired and had a change of lifestyle after he divorced missus Claus and ran away w/Herbie where they wed on the Island of misfit toyz, Yukon Cornelius was devastated but still married them both as he is registered as a minster). Tergets did have the new MU 2packs with Cain Marko sans helmet (caught in a rage face as if passing a large kidney stone) vs Colossus & Mandarin (his mask was beyond the ridiculous as he looks like every stereotype of mystic asian I have ever imagined) vs Iron Man (staypuft mushmellow armor mark 667). I saved my stubborn cash as I'm in the red currently for my toy collecting. I wandered next door and ran (run is such a loose term maybe ambled or fastwaddled (soon to be and olympic event, cmon 2016 we need fastwaddlers now more than ever)) to my fav section. It was sparse and I even saw a tumbleweed or 2 blow thru. I nosed around and used my ample frame to muscle out the 7 year olds looking for Beyblades? (seriously we need to have a talk w/toy execs these days). I spotted the usual Transformers w/human helplers (why not squish the lil bags of flesh and take over this puny planet already?) those were 6bux, and a few Iron men (Eyeron min) all the same armour w/nary a Hulkbuster Armor in sight. Buttt plenty of Iron man on four wheelers? (once again when did Satan start working for all the toy companies, he must be busy, oh that dark prince, he's a joker). So I spotted a Marvel Minimates 2pack Daredevil vs Sin Eater (thats my handle on the CB radio well maybe Sinovereater). That was 5$ kinda steep but I bit and it tasted slightly like cardboard chicken. I relegated myself to this kool find and tried to find my gf to leave and there it was! a shining beacon, the diamond in the ruffneck, a chorus of angels sang from the Heavens as I could swear I heard the sound of Excalibur being unsheathed as I picked up the Sentinel Vs Wolvy box..........even moreso when I saw that is was the Classic colored Sentinel (Purple arms and legs cause purple is death and also a fruit according to my Homer bible). It was 24.99 cause one penny more would be sheer retail madness. I pushed the lil robot's chest button and he gladly obliged by saying "Mutant Detected" and how damn right he was, I am proud to be a Mutant (more mutant than chud I hope). As I paid for it the kid behind the counter remarked how kool it was & was prolly thinking about how kool I was for telling him in my Sid the Sloth voice that this Sentinel was in the Classic colors......So I Strutted out the door to my Saturday Night Fever mind music and sweatly waited for my Gf to finish shopping so I could get back into her car and possibly head home or some place like it.......
  22. I just have the Hulk and my gf found that at my comic store for 8$. The pegscorchers here are Caps and Iron man . Occasionally I see aThor (w some sort of funky paint job) & Loki or 2 but never any sign of of BW or Hawk. I really want to like these figs but 16 is a lil too much for just a fig and a base and lackluster paint jobs. I almost gots one of the Lokis but his paint app was off. Were swimming in a sea of Caps and Iron Man so I imagine some state in the midwest has to be awashed w/BW's and Hawks. I absolutely need a kick in my manparts for passing up on Nick Fury smint in the box that was at my comic book store( i seeent it) for 8$. Really I still have no idea what I was smoking smelling or tasting that day. If your missing Caps and or Iron Man swing on down Grand Canyon way and brave the 108 degree temps and buy a Cap or IM, hell buy 5 for your friends and family, distant couzins, your ice cream man, comic book guy, that really nice guy down the block who works at night all the time, or that nice girl from starbucks who looks like she might be into the Avengers or Spandex clad muscley men, cmon down and bring the lil pards with ya there's plenty of snakes and gilla monsters for them to play with.....
  23. That was bada$$, I'm in for the arctic base and all the figs.....cmon Crom make it sooooo & Santa if your out there please help a misfit toy lover out.....thanx Rev
  24. Douchebag Rule #5 Courtesy Flushes are a myth.....please mystery man flush that stinking pot, last thing I need is to smell your essence right before lunch...f-ing douche
