A friend hooked me up with Marvel Legends Shocker for $12, and it's the version with the Thunderbolts logo where his belt buckle would be, so he matches Boomerang. They're my only two Marvel Legends villains, and I'm perfectly fine with that. I like that one of Shocker's eyes is larger than the other, so it looks like his mask is emoting, Deadpool-style. At this point, I wouldn't mind getting male Beetle, Jessica Jones, or Misty Knight if they end up on clearance or deeply discounted, but with the Defenders set Luke Cage, A-Force set She-Hulk, and Shocker in the last month, I'm pretty content with my small Legends collection as it is now.

Laffo if you can't find Misty for that much. I see her everywhere.

Oh, I went to a Target yesterday for the first time in a while, and there were a dozen Mistys pegwarming, along with that ugly Iron Man from the older Guardians wave, but all at the full $20 price. Target rarely discounts anything.

The Toys R Us I work at hasn't got a single Spiderman figure all year because we have a ton of Lady Beetle and Speed Demon with a lone Misty Knight and a White Tiger some jerk returned to our store. Wish I could just toss them all into the Toys for Tots bin at the exit door.

Actually to be fair to the nerds, the ROTJ Vader was overpriced because of the shittiest implementation of a voice box ever. When activated it only works for 15 minutes or so before turning itself off and needs to be turned back on by the switch. Except doing that requires taking off the head, armor, robe and some of the interior bodysuit to access.

That beard and dour face give off a more Wilford Brimley vibe than they should. The fact that he has what looks like a sweater on doesnt help either.

Is there any way to remove cigarette stink from action figures? I want to believe there’s a special level of hell for eBay sellers who swear stuff is from a smoke-free home when it clearly isn’t.

It looks like it's based on the make-up before enhancements were added, or something.

Not really related, but I remember back in the day accidentally spoiling to someone between Ep. 1 and 2 that Chancellor Palpatine was the Emperor because he's never actually called by his name in the original movies.

I remember it was hilarious that prior to episode 3, the Essential Guide to Characters and other material would act like Palpatine and Darth Sidious were separate characters, even going so far as to have two separate character profiles. Like, come on guys, who are you fooling? Yeah, his face was covered in shadow, but he had the same voice and you could still see his chin. A part of me feels like they're going to pull something similar for episode 9 and be like "ok yeah, so we swore up and down that Rey isn't Luke's daughter but we kinda lied sorry" Also Finn and Poe are actually half brothers and their romance is incest now, whoops sorry

God drat it BBTS. I have my old address saved in their DB, but I updated all of my preorders and new orders to use my new address ( Which I moved to 3 years ago at the end of this year ), yet somehow the latest 2 pre-orders I have still had the old address assigned when I looked at my shipped S.H. Figuarts Shenron.  At least I still own my old place, but it's being rented out and they use "FedEx Smart Post" which is code for "Let USPS deliver this poo poo" which means it's a gigantic pain in the rear end to intercept the package. I have to specifically wait until it's handed off to the post office, and then catch it before it's out for delivery in order to redirect it. My tenants have not updated their phone number, so inevitably it'll be 'Attempted for delivery' otherwise and never actually delivered. Or worse, just left in the Apt. foyer. So frustrated with them, I have removed the address from their (BBTS) address book before and it has reappeared twice. It shouldn't be this difficult to update my Credit Card/Address info.

There was only one Agent Smith in the movie, the other agents were just similar looking to be generic men in black.  It'll be funny when the hot toy can't even pull off half of the kung fu poses.
