Anyone seeing Gwen locally? That whole wave has alluded me so far. But distribution in my area is veerrry spotty on ML since 2012. The Hulkbuster, Thanos, and Rhino waves hit once each and never returned. And i only ever saw but a couple from the Ultron BAF either. But the All Father and Hobgoblin waves hit in abundance and can still be had (minus pizza Spidey which I'm desperate for) by going to about 5 diffrtent Walmarts in the area to piece together. Ebay and Amazon are going to be my only hope for much past those two sets, and probably the Onslaught/ Absorbing Man sets as well. Its hell trying to jump back on this bandwagon right now. Lol

However i gave up on getting pretty much anything i really wanted back in 2013. It was impossible to find just about any ML in my area. But I've been keeping an eye on these Infinite Series sets. I picked up Carnage and Black Cat and a few others in 2014. But distribution got wonky again and i didn't go all in. They're caling my name in a very serious manner now though. I'll pony up on the aftermarket for some, shop around for a bargain on others, and try my damndest to get as much at retail as i can. Lol.....Daredevil just sealed the deal , along with that upcoming Deadpool. I'd also like to say I've been enjoying seeing some of the pickups you guys post in here. Keeps me on the lookout for whats actually on the pegs.

I'll let you know - I currently am weighing up if I will complete the set or get the Select Thanos. Cheers Select. For the love of God. Select.

Ran a FPS test. Trying to find the sweet spot where it works best. 24fps is ideal, but I'm not shooting 24fps for this show. I'm thinking 18fps is going to be where I want to be, for my preference, but I decided to see if 12fps, stretched to 24fps in AE, would give the desired effect.
It did not work.
Alas, back to the drawing board.

finally found a modok for a pretty decent deal on the bay. $55 shipped. can't wait to get him. he's been one on my list for a while now that I've wanted to add to the collection of bad guys. I have a masters of evil, hydra, & now I will start building AIM. I have one aim agent that I've been keeping moc for awhile now, now it's time to get a few more I suppose ![:P](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/tongue.gif)

Sorry for the long post, but I'm giving a little background on my former collection to get your opinions concerning my plans for my new one.
I had amassed a large collection of various lines up until 2009. ML, DCUC/DCD, every Jakks RA and CS figure to that point, Star Wars, GI Joe, Star Trek, TMNT, and various one off things i got over the years. My ML collection was a thing of beauty. I had the entire Toybiz run, including the really hard to get stuff (ie Dragon Man, Kang, clear Invisible Woman from the FF boxset, brown Cable etc) the only thing i never got was the FF movie Doombot. I also had 95% of Hasbros offerings thru 08 as well. The Target Red Hulk wave being my first real defeat Legends wise. And then half the Fin Fang Foom wave being my second. At any rate ,a catastrophic event in June of 09 decimated that collection to only the GI Joes and about 10 or so ML figures remaining in my posession. None of which were figures that were then or are now considered to be all that great. I knew there was no way i could ever rebuild that collection again, and judging by just the prices on an Ares or Ronan baf or a ML 6 Deadpool(of which i had 2 for alternate head display) that line of thought certainly holds true. So ,on the off chance an ML wave showed up here since 2012, i always had a very bittersweet feeling if i bought one. Plus i couldn't and didn't commit fully due to the regret of what I'd lost. Also distribution made it impossible even if i could have gone in totally. However,as Hasbro has plugged along, i see newer characters that TB never gave us, and better looking versions of guys they did....which has led me to think that about 60% of the TB era figures would be obsolete now anyway if i still had them. So, I'm back on board and got the same itch i had until 2009. Any advice as to what i should prioritize first thats still within retail-slightly above retail range, that you guys think will be giving me trouble if i don't get them soon? Especially considering the mint I'll eventually have to drop on some of the older Hasbro offerings. I know there are still a good amount of Toybiz figures that DO hold up, or haven't got updates, and i will be looking to track them down at a later time. But i just want to get a decent enough roster going now and with whats still somewhat available. Again, sorry for the post length, and any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
