At work today there was two X-Men wave thieves. This time however they stole Rogue and Wolverine and left the Juggernaut parts behind. Also found one of the three packs with Kate and Sam stolen, but poor Vision left behind.

I was at TRU the other day and held that 3-pack in my hand and for half a second I thought to myself "I wonder who I could swap out for Kate and then return this thing."

Good thing I'm not a scumbag.

Abomination wave arrived from Amazon. Not too bad. I like the goofy Cap because I am a Cap fanboy. Cpt Britan and Wonderman are decent, but nothing groundbreaking. Iron Skull is weird, but looks cool. Eel, man I need more D-lister villains. Eel, Blizzard, Tigershark, Cottonmouth, Whirlwind; they've all been fun. Abomination looks fantastic, though all the BAFs tend to.

I didn't get Scarlet Witch, I don't go for the movie legends generally.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003F256QI/ would be what you want. It's a three pack of them, with several connector options, extensions, etc. Should work well for your needs and you'll have two extras.

Guess some of the Rogue One stuff is starting to show up early, like a Kmart :lol: exclusive figure of Kyn. Also I guess people like Sabrine, Revan, AT&AT Driver, and Leia ain't out until next Spring, which explains why Amazon took down the page for them after I got most of them pre-ordered.

I got lucky and was able to buy an open and complete Hot Toys Elder Predator 2.0 for $100 from a local collectibles show. I bought the Classic 2.0 about 2 months ago and it was my first hot toys figure, so I have been keeping my eye out for deals on the ones that I want. I think the only other figure I really need to get is the City Hunter 2.0.

eBay seems to have some decent prices on parts and pieces for them if you look around too.

10 Bees and ultraviolence123 have been selling figures here with a lot of success. I got a lot of Marvel Legends from the two that really filled holes in waves I missed when I started buying action figures again.

Speaking of ultraviolence123, I got a extra Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew) from him as a freebie, but I am wondering how hard it would be to repaint her to be Julie Carpenter, the second Spider-Woman? Toybiz had her as a variant to the Jessica Drew figure back then, so I bet just reusing the whole figure wouldn't be a problem.

Sure.

This is way above standard mask quality. If you've had a Stormtrooper or Optimus Prime mask, this blows it out of the water. It is painted instead of having colored plastic. The paint is even and shiny. The faceplate sticks with magnets, and holds securely, even in the up position. The light up feature works nicely, when the mask is put on, the eyes light up and a little whirrr noise emits. The inner headband is removable for easy adjusting, and it is pretty comfortable. I don't feel like I wasted money here. There are better IM helmets out there, but those are hundreds of dollars. For 99 this thing is a good addition to the collection, and would work perfectly if I were to build a IM suit for cosplay.

Considering how they were the only ones to not sell out on Toys R Us' website during their sale, so it safe to say those are the pegwarmers in the wave. Shame since Brother Voodoo looks awesome.

The Toys R Us I work at don't seem to have them yet, but seem to already have a bunch of the Rogue One Blacks in stock. But I am not going to try to get those a week early and get fire.

Are they doing a big rollout for Rogue One like Force Friday last year? I want to grab Jyn, K2, and some of the troopers but there's no way I'm gonna stand in line and fight neckbeards for them at midnight.

Yep, I don't work that night since I work the next day. Last year I didn't go either and Amazon had everyone up right away at midnight. I was able to get Revan, Rey, and Finn without any trouble. If I knew Finn later on that I could find Finn for 4 bucks a year later, I might held off on buying him. I mean jeez, Target really wanted them out of the store.

I am just glad we are getting the new figures since we still have a ton of Finn, Zurvio, Poe, and the Crimson Guard guy.

No dice on the iron man helmet today at toys r us. They had some of the space venom wave but I already have the ones from that wave that I wanted.

Speaking of which if anyone has the build a figure parts from anyone other than miles and silk I would be interested in them.

I heard Revan, Leia in her traditional white outfit, AT&AT Driver, Sabine, Lando, Obi-Wan and maybe C3PO are due out next spring. Which explains why when I pre-ordered Sabine, Lando, Obi-Wan, and C3PO on Amazon, the orders are still there, but the store pages were removed.

Pretty sure I do, the downside is I'm out of town for a tech conference all week. PM me to remind me and I can check on Friday.

Wouldn't mind getting rid of the whole figure either if you want, either. Not really feeling Marvel Legends from that era anymore.

Still waiting on the Jubilee coat (should be shipping this week), but I got Spiral's helmet in today. Once I get back from vacation I will probably order the paint I need to start working on painting the helmet silver and Jubilee to match her BAF. Dunno if I will do the Spider-Woman custom as I not sure on how easy that would be.
