Heh, I have to admit this post made me chuckle a little.

Anyone else having an issue with this? It doesn't seem my picture/status etc. update with facebook as my settings indicate.

While the sequel didn't blow me away, I am still anxious for the third...

Nano-Viper is still available at the 10.99 Walgreens price tag around here, but no where else.

Ah, I see. Still no site of them here in New England...

Please, please don't be true...

I think The Vulture may be a tad hard to pull off on the big screen as we know the character today, but what a great choice of actor!

I have seen him 4-5 times out there, but not very often or in large amounts.

I had decided not to buy MU (at least beyond a few favorites) and yet over Christmas/New Years vacation I ended up buying just about everything released so far. Whoops!

What area of the country did you find these in?

I passed because I was in a bad mood the day I saw them (yes, this has an impact on my collecting at times!) and I have been kicking myself ever since!

This has been one of my favorite titles over the last year. I think the run with Bucky has been great and I am hoping he remains an important character in the title or gets his own series. If he does lose the Cap gig, I hope he gets a new outfit that isn't Bucky or Winter Soldier.

I was going to post something similar to this, I actually pictured this as being the next generation of Joes as I played the campaign mode. As far as multiplayer goes, it is too insane for me to picture anything

I am just thrilled this is another big middle finger to all the drama queens who hate the movie so much...

With the exception of stores who went berzerk on Wave 1, I have to tell ya I do not see these toys being stagnant. In this particular area I am seeing Star Wars and GI Joe doing pretty well, with the TF and Marvel lines kind of lingering. On a side note, I was happy to finally find Dr. Lewis, Charbroil, Adder, etc. this past weekend. I have yet to see Arctic Snake Eyes at retail, though!

I'm in for at least a few of those!

I absolutely loved this movie! To all the plot gripes pointed out in this thread- Well, many of you are right. However like others have said I wasn't expecting Casablanca here I was expecting the absurd fun from the cartoon/comic I have loved all these years. As recently as the second trailer that brought out the Sigma 6 suits, I had huge doubts about the movie. Once all the TV ads started popping up featuring other elements my hopes were raised and I was not let down. Honestly, Duke's thugonomics accent was the biggest distraction for me, and even that is a small gripe. I suppose that is the norm for "hip" these days though. Bring on a sequel, please.

Either at midnight tonight or tomorrow. I am bummed about how few places are doing a midnight show

I am pleasantly surprised how well these are selling around here, too

For the folks who already have it, are the DiC cartoons included?

YES

I think they are warming the pegs more than the other lines simply because GI Joe has a stronger ratio of adult to child collectors at this point. Yes, Star Wars has a lot more fans as well, but it is recent enough to still have a lot of kids interested. I think if a new cartoon, or even re-runs of the classic were around, we would see these sell better...

I'm glad you made this post, because I was just about to. I just accepted a new position yesterday, so I am going from college-intern to summer-intern and now an actual Analyst position as well. I think I will start with a few small things... maybe a Vader 4" scale by my monitor... and see what kind of reaction it all gets. In my current cubicle here, I have a lot of sports stuff... but that is much more generally accepted everywhere than Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Toys. Despite my position getting better, I feel like the area of the building I am moving to is actually MORE casual than where I am now... I'll post back here in a couple weeks to see if I get any flack....

Minus a few exceptions, the scale in Star Wars post-POTF2 has been pretty good. Like many others have said, try being a collector of wrestling toys... now that brings some absurd scale problems.
