I went hunting all day yesterday and all I found was 1 measly Crimson Guard. Someone must of hit my Walmart minutes before I got there. At least they left a CG behind ( or they didn't see him since he behind 4 other figs.)

And I bought another damn Trooper. I'm not an army builder, but I can't stop buying Troopers and Officers. It's a sickness I tell ya!

[madmac41]

It is kind of lame that you took the only three cases of Wave 5 they had.Especially when they are first hitting.I guess you think that your the only one that goes to that Walmart.Apparantly there are alot of collectors in this area, add to that the scalpers and there just is not enough to go around.Since you didn't respond to my P.M. I guess you forgot about the help you got at the Con.

[chickenbroth]

I have to take madmacs and infinitrons side on this. I make enough money to buy two of each fig. One to open and one to keep moc ( except for a few extra troopers and officers.) When I found multiple cases of wave 3 and 4 I decided that due to their scarcity I only bought one of each and informed my fellow collectors on this site out my sighting.
If it was like the glory days of Joe and there was many many pegs of figs for everyone, then fine , buy 3 cases. But at this time with people spending time and gas to find these figs and coming up empty handed, I personally think 3 cases of one wave is hoggish.
I have refrained from using the "s" word because I don't know you or your intentions. My rant is over, sorry guys, sometimes I have to get my 2 cents in.

[Colder Soldier]

Wow. I would really like to know when I became the bad guy here. Yeah, I got 3 each of wave 5 except having only 2Flash and 5CGs. I let a dude who came up after me have one of each. I offered him an entire set but he said that was all he needed.

Sorry about not responding to the PM Madmac but in my defense, it is my first PM on this forum. I never even look at my little box. Besides, I thought you found W5 at the Fairdale Wal-Mart...?

And it's funny to me how so many adults have become upset over hearing someone else has more toys than they do. Your rage is fueled by envy and both emotions are clouding your judgement. Go back and read some of my earlier posts on this thread, especially the first (#5). I reached out so many times when I needed figs, not a peep from any of you. Now that I have figs you don't, everybody's talkin' at me. It would'nt be a thing at all if someone contacted me and said...

"Hey ColderSoldier, mind if I get a IGDestro, BlkSnakeEyes, Snowjob, or CG off ya? Maybe we can come up with a deal concerning the BlkTimberSE or YelStalker that you need? If not that, I'll still pay you for the figs and give ya little something for your time. Maybe we can meet up at the Great Escape or PulpHeroes like you suggested? It's cool how you buy ALL the figs, and maybe help out your friends that need them. It is pretty uncool how all the rest of us just post messages about where we saw new figs, hours earlier, which most of us probably read, hours later, suggesting to go buy them when we know DAMN well they are already gone. Probably bought by those dastardly scalpers that torment us so.That's what sets you apart from the rest of us ColderSoldier. You're a thinker. We know your a good guy that's always willing to REALLY help instead of just talk about it. Always willing to help... until we piss you off."
That's why I am now keeping all 3 sets. If I ever see 'em out again, maybe I'll post and tell ya. Let that be a lesson to you all.

And Madmac, you always were a little arrogant. So let me let you know, I ain't in debt to nobody. If you want these toys back, it'll be $144. Plus 8% tax.

So YOU want to start name calling.Had you responded to my pm I would have let you know all I was looking for was a Snakeeyes and Destro,But you didn't.I was looking for them to hook someone else up with no profit at all ,Thats what friends do.But I assure YOU that I will never do you a favor again I will also take my comic book business elsewhere and inform the owner why.You were trying to get hooked up with the two rarest Joes in the 25th and your upset nobody helped you out,Maybe it's because they didn't have them.I helped you out at the con by letting you get my bagged set as you walked away you thanked me and said I owe you a favor.I really don't see how I am the arrogant one when you are the one bragging about buying 3 cases of wave 5.

[ladyhump]

I heard that after the first of the year that Target and Walmart are going to have pegs again with Joes. They both are gonna do resets so hopefully that'll be able to quench our Joe thirst.

Sheesh Colder Soldier.... madmac41 was only looking for extras to hook up a few friends who hadn't had any luck in finding this wave yet. (I would happen to be one of them.)

However, that's okay... enjoy your 3 of each figure and the view from your lofty perch.

Sigh...

I don't know what it is. Maybe some of us just have a problem with reading comprehension. I will help out anyone who would just (politely) ask. I'm not upset no one has the figs I need, I just thought I'd (politely) ask. Instead, all I got was a lot of feedback indicating that I was a "lame hoggish scalper" that was somehow in someone's pocket. Sorry, but none of that sits well with me.

Madmac, sorry I did'nt answer that PM right quick enough for you, BUT you sure were quick about posting up the "favor" I supposedly owe you. You were just trying to hook a friend up with no profit at all? Well as a friend, I'm LETTING you buy back your bagged set for $144 + tax, what I paid, with no profit at all. You assure ME you'll never do me a favor again? Oh, what ever will I do? Your arrogance is laughable. Going to take your comic business elsewhere? Inform the owner why? Man, you can take your measely $2.95 to wherever you want and tell whoever you like. I won't lose any sleep. Besides what's going to happen? Is someone, somehow going to beat me up? Is I's gonna gits uh whippin', massah? And how do you even know if I thanked you or not, that day at the con? YOU had already turned your back, with not so much as a "see you later", walkin into the distance on your high horse. Sorry, to bring you back down to earth, but you did'nt save my day. Your arrogance is laughable and I'm not the only one that knows who you are that has gotten a chuckle out of it.

And as for me thinking I'm on some perch, I'm not that way because I have more friggin' toys. Please, I'm a grown man. I'm arrogant because I'm so damn good looking.

[Colder Soldier]

Yeah, so has anyone seen any of the 2-pks pop up anywhere local yet?

[madmac41]

You say your a grown man try acting like one.
