Hey LNC a quick question. I’m looking for a 12” scale army type figure for a nephew. I got one years ago for my son and I think it was a Toys R Us line. Not a collector it’s a five year old. Anyone know where those lurk now?

Ross had a ton of the 12" inch scale Marvel figures this past weekend (From End Game). They are terrible for collectors, but ok for a 5 year old I suppose.

I honestly have never even thought about Chewbacca's wang until today. It's weird how much this ties into the LGBTQ+ in GI Joe topic for me. I mean, I have some sort of disconnect in my head when it comes to kid's toys/properties I experienced as a child where "adult" stuff just doesn't apply. Like, I still look at all this stuff through a child's eyes. I don't worry about--or even really think about--"realism", or "modernizing" GI Joe or soap opera love triangles in The Pit. In my Joe-world it's perpetually 1980-something and America still uses flamethrower troopers. I think that's also why scalping and hoarding and the modern realities of toy buying pisses me off. Apparently, to me, the toy shopping experience should still be how it was when I was a kid, when toys were plentiful and the only adults you found in toy aisles were there with a child or a list, and often were confused, annoyed and just wanting to get the fuck outta there.

ok so I had a Sbarty moment. I made an order from Dallas Vintage Toys and they sent me the wrong order. Instead of my order, they sent me two very expensive 12" Joe dolls. Ugh!

A little advice from your friendly LNC auditor. Do NOT use a debit card (a card linked to your checking account), at a large resort or large Hotel. Large/fancy Hotels/Resorts (and even some restaurants and gas stations), will place large holds/authorizations on your card. These holds may show up in addition to the actual charges. If you use a credit card, this is no problem, simply a waiting game. However, if you use a debit card, it can/will tie up huge amounts of your money that you may not have access to it for days or weeks. In many cases, it's not even the Hotel/Resorts fault. There is a 1-5 business day lag (or more) between the time a hold is released to the time where it clears on the banking side.
I always assumed this is common knowledge in this day and age, but apparently not. So now you know.... Quote:
As a 12 inch Joe fan which ones did they send?

So what do you do in that situation? Send them back and ask for what you really ordered? Or put those fuckers on Ebay and get more money back and then order what you really wanted a second time?

Not sure. Duke. I'll look and see what they were. I was so pissed. But, all of their 12" are priced high.
They only had one of each item that I ordered so I guess unless someone sends them back I'm screwed out of my order other than a refund. I bet the other guy was pissed too he got some loose vintage figures and a sword instead of his hundred dollar Joes.
