I've stopped buying ToyBiz because of this crap, learn from Jakks evenly pack the figures and make things easier for everyone. I don't need 3 Weapon X, Iron Mans or Ghost Riders in the case 2 of each would hav e been suffice. 2 Apocalypse, 2 Hawkeyes and 2 Visions would be awesome this way everyone can get what they want and the scalpers would stop buying every piece.

You know, I've been collecting ML since they were SMC. I can't help but be slightly irritated when newcomers find **** that I never have any chance of finding. I'm not mad at the people that find them, I'm mad that this line is so goddamn frustrating to collect. Everyone that collects this line should be able to find whoever they want.  you Toybiz, and your stupid case ratios, you rotten bastards.  I don't know if this was directed to me in any way, but I've been collecting Marvel figures since I was two. The first figure I ever got was a Marvel Superheroes talking Venom, which was later re-called for some of the things he said. Then I moved on to the animated X-Men line collecting them till around 1994 when the Animated Spiderman line came out. I switched back and forth on those and got who I wanted from each line. Then the Classics lines came out and I buy who I like from those lines. |

Then you weren't who I was talking about. Hell, I was buying the Famous Covers and Silver Surfer figs. And like I said, I'm not mad at people that can find stuff, good for them. But when I see: "By the way, I saw three Deadpools today, are they rare?", I can't help but gnash my teeth. But on a side note, Amazon shipped my Vision today, so that's one less guy I have to look for. Sure I'm paying out the ass on the shipping, but it's not worth the headache of store hopping. It's all good, my man. I still remember those McDonald's Spider-Man the cartoon toys being in such high demand. I always wanted the Doc Ock. |

By the way, check out Sears if you have one. I found the original SMC Lizard there yesterday.

On a side note, WMs have been getting the SMC wave with morbius  I was at 3 different WMs today and they all had a fresh case of that wave. 1 also just restocked the MLs...with the crap wave. Had ML 4 Punisher and Elektra, ML3 wolvie, ML 1 Cap and Iron man, and ML 2 Human Torch all with mini posters. |

And with the various gripes I've heard about Amazon, I consider myself lucky to get one. Of course, we both know the Avengers boxed set is inevitable. And yeah Brad, we're getting those same assortments. Couple of Punishers with posters were on the pegs yesterday. Hard to believe that this time last year, Walmart was getting ML V 2 or 3 months before everyone else. |

My Wal-Mart just got tons of ML V, they filled a whole endcap display with them, something like 4 rows worth. I have almost given up on Wal-Mart with stocking like this. |

Thank Christ! The UPS man dropped off my Vision a couple hours ago. No wasted gas, no paying scalpers, and his paint is perfect. *Does E-cartwheel*

He looks cool Brad. Finally a variant that makes sense. I wouldn't mind finding Gummy Vision myself, if I don't, I have the regular Vision to keep me happy.

My dream is to take one of those clear Visions in front of a massive fanboy, and rip it out of the package, and take a gigantic bite out of it, like a gummy bear... then see the fanboy have a seizure on the floor..  I am MEEN. |

Don't you hate it when you spend ages posing your figures and someone comes up... has no clue what they, picks them up and puts em down... and then for a week they keep falling down.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! LOOK WITH YOUR EYES!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! LOOK WITH YOUR EYES! I don't have a problem with people randomly marching into my room, and picking up my shit, since no one but me goes in there. When someone does come in, and ask to see something, I'm forced to be a dick, and tell them no.

I'd probably be an idiot and trade it for a MM7 Robocop because I am so ing impatient. |
