Ha, yeah, I saw that you were pretty frustrated with it. I think I'd go for it, but the price is pretty hefty for the return and I've got too many other toy lines and subscriptions to handle.
I'm definitely getting the FSS3 so long as they look good. For once, it's like 90% win, versus 50%+1 like the last 2. I'd all but given up after last FSS's shitty delivery condition, but here I go again, wasting more money…
It's weird, but, what can you do. I think it's weird to see people get worked up about repaints and parts use. Me, I just want the figures as accurate as possible. If that means a straight repaint gets us a solid ARAH update, then so be it. I just cross my fingers that one of the changes the club is making is to give Psyche-Out the gray sleeves.
Still, I'm really scared that the 13th will be Pythona. I'm just not sure I can sub up, but I don't want to miss her.
Nothing stays on my Skystriker. Missiles, wings, none of it. Depressing! Think I will hold out for a vintage Tomahawk. Although I'll probably crumble the first time I see it.
I have a DG nearby. I can keep an eye out for any of those you need.
TRU down in San Jose. It's the first thing of any merit I've found in the wild all year, I think. The few Retaliation figs I wanted like LJ and Colton I haven't seen anywhere. I did pick up a few wave 1 DG Joes while I was back home visiting friends, so that was about as much action as I've seen at retail in 2013. Everything else has come overpriced from the Club! Sigh.
The front prop is wobbly, gotta figure out a way to fix it. The rear one is solid, I don't get it. I'm sure someone will post a fix. I didn't really find too much wrong with the Skystriker, other than none of the damned bombs will stay on.
Haha, howdy! I knew you were in the Bay Area. Good going on the chopper. Where did you find yours? I'm gun shy after the poor quality of the Skystriker.
