Not sure if it's worth selling a kidney or two for..............unless the're not yours, lol.
I just wish it was spaced out more, it's too much all at once just like the single carded figures all waves and collections released at the same time is rough! 37 figures at roughly $8 a pop is hard to take, especially with the economy like it is right now. Quote:
OK, Good news Bad news from SDCC so far.
Snow Cat with ??? - pure awesome - getting 3 Footloose - he wore green, with plants stuck to his outfit to hide him. The new guy is in tan - OK, we can live with that. The new guy has a vest that is nothing like the original, and has weapons that aren't similar either. The only thing slightly similar is the mustache. And that hardly defines the character. Law - a Military Police Man. WTF is he doing in desert gear? He would hang around the base in comfortable garb (like his original) all day. Repeater is actually pretty close and probably therefore the biggest oddity- tan camo, vest, big gun. But now he's African American???? WHY? There is no logical reason for that change. Female Dial Tone - I'll call her Busy Signal. Problem solved Outpost Defender, LAW, Survelience post, Cobra MMS - pure win. Not a great day due to the 5-pack screw ups, but OK. My BIG beef is how everything looks to be an exclusive at somewhere I'll never see them. Sigh - E(Vil) bay, here I come.... I tried logging on last night and couldn't. I gave up. First day I have missed my Tank fix in awhile. Like the new sig. Buffalo Sho. "it puts the lotion on or it gets the hose again..." |

Yeah man, when they got W10 late last year, Target had the $4.99 sale going and I got a price match for pretty much all of W10. They even gave their usual 15/20/30% discounts on top of the price match, but just like Target's been with the TRU sale, it depended on what store you went to.

So, I go to TRU at 10am this morning, my inside guy told me they were getting a shipment. When I got there they hadn't opened up the box yet, so I asked if they could go ahead and do it. The guy was very nice, he opened the box and said to go ahead and look through it and he would stock them later. As I'm taking the figures out of the box it goes like this; Crimson viper, eel, Elite Viper, Hawk, Flash, Helix, Pit commando, Ripcord, Duke.
This fat blond kid, about mid twenties walks up and looks at me anxiously, he asked if he could see what I had, I said sure, no problem. He's like "Ooooooooh maaaaaaan!!! I came here specifically for Hawk and the Elite viper! Damn!". Well, Elite viper and Hawk are definitely on my list, but being the sucker that I am, I felt sorry for the guy, I said "Here, go ahead, take em", I gave him Hawk and Elite Viper. I asked him if he knows about Hisstank, He said that hes not a member, but he logs on to get info about the toys. Strike one. Then he tells me that he just scored a PP SE with grey timber at Kmart. Strike two, LOL. Then he starts telling me spoilers about the film. I said, "Dude, no spoilers". He was a pretty cool guy, but I can't help but think that had the roles been reversed, he would not have given up any figures for me. I guess that's what separates people. What do you guys think: Sucker or good guy? |

They think that because there's merely 30-some million people in Canada that they don't need to ship the exclusives up here ever. No one will care right? And those who want them won't mind paying money to get them shipped from the states, or take a couple days off to drive into the states right? Assholes (not you, Hasbro) |
