Hopefully.  It would have been pretty good trade bait, judging how they sell around here anyway.  

I just don't have room for more trade bait right now.  Office is crammed with stuff.  I have to get my shelves up and get some stuff onto them.  That and waiting til fall to clear out the hockey stuff I know longer want is a pain.  But I think it's just smart to wait until NHL6 gets guys in the US interested again.  Might try when I try and trade my NHL5 duplicates.  We'll see.  

Money not spent on shipping for trades is going to vintage anyway. ;D

I asked.  They asked me why.  I didn't give the real answer ;) ;D

TRU finally got some of the Matrix McFarlanes today... I found the Twin 1 and Morpheus, no Twin 2 unfortunately. I'll be on the lookout for a Twin 2, but judging by the prices he's fetching on eBAY, no such luck is expected.

Very cool figures, but 10 a pop is a bit much.

T3 figures are delayed until August 1st. Yep, more than a month after the movie is out. I'm not at all happy.

Clone Trooper minibusts have been delayed as well supposed to come out tomorrow, and are now pushed back until the middle of August.

Can someone sleep with my girlfriend and kick my cat around while their at it? Jesus.

I don't collect these, but in case anyone is interested, the new Lee's Toy Review (AFN) magazine has an indepth guide to all of the McFarlane movie figures put out by them thus far.  Pretty nice!

I have heard that T3 figures are out in some places in the US from other forums. I hope they get here soon. There going to fly off the shelves here!

I'm putting out an ad for anyone who is willing to part with either a MOC or Loose/Complete Stealth Predator.

I know it's a long shot, but I would kinda like it to round out my collection.  :-[

Woo hoo! Got my Coffin Arnie and TX this afternoon. Passing on the other two, though. heres some pics.


T-850. Awesome likeness, limited articulation but after all, it is basically a mini statue.


Ah-nolds cah-fin. Chock full o' goodies this one is! The stuff outside the casket is loose, inside is molded.



Mmm..the Lokenator. The Terminatrix. Awesome fig. She has 3 interchangable arms. The left arm isn't interchangable, so don't try.

You suck  :P  Where did u get those?

I haven't seen those yet.  How does the coffin stay on the Terminator's arm?  It looks to me like it could fall off at any time and break....

As for the Stealth Predator, goodluck looking for one.  I have been watching them on eBay for the past 3 weeks and none go for less than $50 shipped.  I'm hoping to luck out someday, maybe some dummy will put up a BIN cheap...

I got mine at EB Games. Not all EB Games got them either. Not yet anyway.

As for the coffin, there is a peg on the opposite side of where it is hinged. That peg fits into a peghole in Arnold's shoulder.

Mine fell once already today. The trick is, take the weapons out, and try to balance the coffin to where there is more weight on the back then the front. Then it looks perfect.

That damn Stealth Predator will be mine someday. I've got the other two, plus the Alien/Predator set in the mail, and I'd really like to round out the set.

Yeah, i hope to get it too....

I think though once everyone who wants one, has one, the price will start to drop, it always does.  I refuse to pay more than $30 for it.

I think they should re-release the 'Predator 2" figure in MM7 in stealth mode....that way we would have a masked and de-masked stealth pred and one from each movie....
