Damn I missed out on all the drama. Shit I double post all the time I guess. I mean I might use multi-quotes occasionally, but Rarely would I see the need, since that would be good only for responding to multiple members who responded to me. And any rate who cares?
Now I feel we had half our regulars on at one time, which doesn't happen often. I guess we were all looking to see the new stuff. Any more new stuff going to show up today? I am loving what I'm seeing. The Jungle Viper looks pretty sweet, but there is someting I'm not liking about him. That Beachhead looks awesome. I agree he makes a great Sabretooth or Wreckage and that's probably what I'll do. Both Ripcords looks great. I wanted to use the Sigma Six suit Ripcord as Rampage but once I got him it doesn't seem to work so he's a Steel Brigader now. I'll use him and The Duke and Speed Metal and the Asika motorcycle guy and have a nice little Heavy-Weapons SB team. But the Desert Ripcord, and the Glider one look awesome! Scarlet looks sweet, but I'll rename her as well? Recondo looks unbelievable. Why Hasbro? Make an origianl one and then just blow it away. Zartan looks right now. Awesome. He kind of looks like a witch or something. Arctic Destro looks great and I'm not into the Arctic Guys, but this wave is going to change my mind. Destro looks like he has the outfit that he now has in the comics underneath. But what is changing my Arctic opinion most. Arctic Duke. He looks like Zulu's Blizzard composite. The Cobra Ice Cutter looks kind of cool too. What else? Maybe I'll double post right after this one. |

I don't know what's up with Stalker. He's in the video game, so could be released as a figure, there's obviously one made.. Wonder why they won't release it? Name issues maybe?

The Wreckage figure is a repainted Firefly, so using the City Strike Beach-head as Wreckage makes a lot of sense, because CSBH uses the Firefly head - but wasn't Sabertooth also supposed to be a repainted Firefly? When I get this figure, I think I'm going to buy an extra and send it to Marine Deadpool to have him customize the camo. This figure will make a great addition to the ODA Team.

I think mos of us have used double and triple posts from time to time. Since when has it ever been an issue? This thread has over 8,000 posts and some schmuck with less than 400 posts is going to rail on us because this thread doesn't jive with his own personal forum etiquette? Give me a break.

I think the one in the game is like Stalker from Resolute. He has the dreadlocks. Maybe they're saving him for the Resolute DVD pack I keep hearing about. I would definitely buy that figure/set.

That's exactly how I feel. If I'm responding to a different idea/Tanker/subject, I use a separate post. I have no problem with double/triple posting, that's fine for whoever wants to do it that way. I have no problem with multiquoting... each Tanker has to do it their own way. As long as they are polite, and clear about what they mean, I have no problems.

I really doubt it was initially meant as an insult, since Texasdoom asked a question afterwards that was pertinent. He only responded negatively after Oliverbox questioned it in the manner you did. Seriously, this is how we welcome new people on the thread? He made an observation - one that I've made privately myself - and got jumped on. I know we can do better than that. Let's not be so fast to jump to conclusions, okay? Please?

Maybe the sarcasm didn't permeate through my wording, or maybe you were a little too scrupulous in your search for negativity in my posts, as I was joking. I believe I even said something along the lines of "...hilarity ensues." Thanks for calling me a shmuck though. I asked a legitimate question and you flame the shit out of me. Awesome. I'm no 'stranger' just because you don't meander around the tank long enough to not know who I am. I have been here longer than you have. I don't necessarily feel that the amount of posts qualify you as a good board member as evidenced by your most recent activities. Look up some of my old threads if you don't know who I am.

Alright, as promised, here is my first attempt as painting/customizing... my 5 member Delta Force Team for Iraq/Afghanistan. There is one other member - a Sniper (a custom I've had for months that I got from fellow Tanker, Shakka85)... he's back in Mississippi in storage, and I haven't brought him up yet. So he'll join this unit later. I figure a 6-man team is just about right.
Also, I want to give a shout out to my wife for taking the pictures for me. She did a much better job than I was doing. So here they are...

So here are some more pics...
Sorry they all came out sideways. I tried to fix that before I uploaded them, but I don't upload a lot of pictures so I'll need to practice before next time. I'll be interested to see what y'all think.
