You know, I love glow-in-the-dark action figures, but even I know McFarlane is phoning it in here.

Thanks but I'll wait for the Gold Label Glow In The Dark variant with a slightly open mouth, which will of course be Jokerfied

Hell yes, another team complete. Now give me Rachel Summers and I'll be extra happy, though I'm still making my way through X-Men '97, I'm sure there will be more wants coming.



I love Strong Guy so much but he can't stand worth a poo poo and I haven't come up with a good solution other than cursing god

e: also happy to give the Zabu BAF piece that came with Wolfsbane if anybody wants it.

Nice, can't wait to get him. Ka-Zar and Ikaris will be here on Saturday. I already have Feral, Cable, Red Widow, and Black Winter Thor. Gotta have me a Zabu. Made the mistake of accidentally purchasing a Cable through two different sites so I'll have a second one here on Saturday too. Not sure what I'm going to do with that, haha. I didn't especially want the Red Widow and definitely didn't want the Black Winter Thor, but as said gotta have a Zabu.

I've lost count of the number of times I've purchased a whole wave just for the BAF. Think it started in 2006 with Mojo and Onslaught.

Cable is the only one from that wave I don't have on the way yet. Amazon hasn't shipped him or She-Hulk from the retro wave.

I didn't want Black Winter either, but he will look good on a cosmic shelf. Red Widow will fit in with the Winter Guard, the couple I do have.

This will be my first build a figure. Zabu is a good one to start on. I love Ka-Zar. I like everyone that nobody else cares about. like some of the first figures I bought after Doom and the FF were Quasar, Darkhawk, Namorita, Speedball, Justice, Moon Knight, Sleep Walker, and Night Thrasher. That's what I like.


EDIT: I did buy an Apocalypse BAF off Ebay but this will the first one I build myself.

My most shameful BAF purchase was the entire Khonshu wave at full price, when I literally did not want any of those figures. That one still hurts. That was such a poo poo wave. I still see those figures warming the pegs. But Khonshu was as close to the top of my Marvel wish list as a guy could get, pretty much. I loved that character in the comics and the TV show, and I had to have that loving BAF immediately. I paid what, $175 for that figure, basically. I love that figure, but I'm still mad.

I will eventually try to get Khonshu on eBay fully formed on its own. I have the modern Moon Knight Marvel Legend and a custom Mr. Knight figure with all cloth suit already so I definitely need Khonshu to go with it.

My big BAF woe is Annihilus; every figure in that wave is godawful and that includes the baf. It’s the first and only wave I’ve ever felt such regret for buying. To compound it, they’ve still yet to make updated versions of half the wave so the only options at the moment for a comic look Green Scar, green outfit Banshee, or Annihilus are those travesties.

Does anybody care about those DC logo trading card holder thingies that come with certain McFarlane DC figures? Because I don't, and I have a pile of them that I don't want. Before I decide to just throw them out, figured I'd ask if anyone wants them.

That Wal-Mart exclusive Giant Man BAF wave nearly broke me back in the day. I drove around to so many stores, found only 2 figures, and then had to buy the entire wave on eBay because it was cheaper than doing it piecemeal.

The finished figure was cool, but I wasted so much money buying and selling the figures I didn’t want. And then Hasbro took over the line and I hated their first waves so much I sold off my entire ML collection anyway. I was all-in on collecting every Avenger until Hasbro’s Tigra looked so bad I didn’t want to display it with the rest of the team.

I stumbled upon the entire giant man wave. I was broke as hell. Walmart still had layaway so I did that.

Well, I forgot about it and was way late picking it up. Still broke, I went and checked if they still had it. They did and I just charged it to a card with an impossibly high balance.
