Man that's fantastic. Cannot wait to get that guy. Thanks for posting these pics.

I agree.

Why would they not wear masks? Stealing figures is the perfect opportunity for balaclava with a skull deco! Hell I look for an opportunity to wear mine but, my wife doesn't find it funny when I wake her with it on. Not much of a sense of humor if you ask me.

Good thing their getaway van is something totally nondescript. Can't imagine many people knew about the stuff stored in this unit.

Hope they are caught before they can offload anything.

Well I know they weren't at my house because I wouldn't even notice

My OAMCC with the pre-order date of 9/15 has shipped.

BTW, I keep meaning to mention this: I'm a big DC Comics fan and every time I see OAMCC abbreviated, it makes me think of DC Comics character OMAC.

Well if we find out it was $20,000 worth of female figures we know who owned the collection.

Or maybe we know who one of the thieves are.

I do think as much as Dragonfly related things are quite possible and indeed desirable. I think I wouldn't rule out them doing some of Glenda's Team mates and selling them in Dragonfly like packaging.. and considering how that could work quite well with some "tweaks" I don't think I'd mind at all.

They did do some already for the Club so those could inspire them perhaps.

I think they might be a bit more likely than them throwing a surprise SAS Force Panther out there.

Haha I also do this everytime.

Another fun fact, I got into the habit of naming all of my external hard drives after evil robots (because I'm so clever). From Skynet, to Brainiac, IG88, Ultron, and OMAC for my camera memory card (get it? it's a big eye).

So not only do I think of cyclopic androids, I also think of a SanDisk memory card.

This is the exact reason I haven't moved my old collectibles to a storage unit. I was thinking an indoor (small unit) might be more secure???

Either way, I have way too much old stuff that I need to find a place for.

Not the initial 8/5 Monday pre-order nor the 8/6 Tuesday re-stock of Once a Man. But my 6:00a.m. on Wednesday 8/7 happy accident Once a Man finally shipped about 27 minutes ago.

Thanks Firm!!! That was something I really wanted to be able to see at SDCC, but his figure was just next to another one of him with his mask on so there wasn't a way to gauge just how big he was. I scoured a lot of videos on the floor and never saw any where they asked Lenny or one of the Hasbro reps to show them. Is he as tall as Serpentor or more like Roadblock's height but just super wide and thick?

Yeah, I actually need one but luckily I don't need it for any of my collectible stuff. I did have my stuff in an indoor Public Storage unit 10 years ago for over 2 years and never had an issue.

These guys knew who they were hitting. Either knew the owner, knew someone who did. That or they know someone who works at the storage place and found out.

By the way, always nice to see another fellow Californian on the 'Tank. Yo Joe!!!

I think he's the same height as Serpentor. If he isn't he is very very close. But he dwarfs other figures. When they were puttin he and Raptor in the case they were side by side and I looked at Matt (Cohen) and said,"Damn, he's huge." He just grinned and nodded. One of the RP's (there were 2 in the case) fell over and made a "THUNK". Again, I don't think anyone is gonna be disappointed in the size or heft.
