Got up to Snow's TRU today LOL 1.5 hour drive, rediculous, but its the only TRU that has crap. Got the last Friday the 13th Jason Vorheese they had, hes is pretty damn awesome so it was worth the trip. They did not have anything else of import to mention though.
There is a Castle thing at TRU I am thinking about getting. Its that wired brand of toys like the non-articulated Knights on horses/dragons/fairies ect. I forget the toy lines name but the castle looks pretty cool. Wish there was one out of the box I could see as the thing is pretty expensive at $150. But it has 4 look out towers. nicely done stone walls and a main Bulding hall with a draw bridge. With some yellow LED christmas lights as torches and a cool base to sit it on, it would look hella cool as a Destro/Cobra castle thingy. I may get one and set it up and if I don't like it return it. I need a Cobra Base of some sorts and don't wanna pay 300+ for a used shotty looking terrodrome or $4500+ for a boxed one :( Why Cobra never gets bases is beyond me.... In my customs deptartment heres my take on Col. Braddock. Nirvana's got me thinking how to do one, so here is how I did mine. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...tion-xxiv.html

Found Guardian and an extra Electro. My MU Wv5 is done so all that's left is the "Gigantic Battles" sets exclusive to WM. 3 different ones to find at $27 a pop. Ugh. New Marvel Universe Wal-Mart Exclusive Gigantic Battles Two-Packs Revealed - - MarvelousNews.com

Voting ends tonight. Remember, if it isn't Moo-Ninja, then I didn't make it. ;)
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...n-entries.html Found a Viper laying around at the Forest Ln WM while grabbing groceries. Wierd. I've been through there a dozen times and I don't remember seeing it before. Cost a whopping $3, so I gave it a good home along with something I hope to turn into an even bigger 1/18th scale HD TV.

I stashed that! Nah I'm kidding. I should've picked up one of those foils at Coit/Bush before they disappeared though. I don't think I've been to that store since I picked up the Sky Hawk and Water Moccasin there.
I voted for you on that Nirvana, they ought to do that fig as a kids meal giveaway! CG, nice work on Chick! Do your Res GH mods give him some better height? I'm fine with it as is but he's just about as tall as Tunnel Rat! |

Not much height, its his upper torso inhibiting that, he grew slightly. I tried Lt. Stone's upper body but it just looked awkward and of course the head post is waaay to tall as usual with everything else.
In other site news they have cannceled wave 4 at HTS(night adder etc)...not sounding good about that unless they have changed wave revisisons for that wave...

I picked up a Golden Compass Lord Asriel (Daniel Craig's character) at Big Lots the other day because I thought the head sculpt was pretty good. I did a head swap with a couple of Joes and thought he looked pretty cool. Here's a sort of Casino Royale-ish intro James Bond:
The head also looks good on a Wild Bill/Strato Viper body: |

$4. Not bad at all. I don't have the SDCC Destro in suit, that head might look pretty cool on it. You'd probably have to dremel the inside though, it rode pretty high on most of the bodies I tried. I'm sure you guys here could pull off some pretty cool customs with it, I can already see the wheels turning!
