Does anyone here have the Eternia playset? I'm thinking of trying to get one of these but I want to know what the typical problems are with the playset and how well it holds up. I see a few on ebay from time to time and I see parts all the time but before I go working on putting together one of these massive playsets I want to get an idea of what I'm getting myself into. I'd have started a new thread but I figured this would be good enough to cover vintage MOTU instead of putting it into the New MOTU thread.

Believe it or not only 31 codes. But that was over a month ago. Thanks for the info! Optimus just doesn't look right with the short stacks. Don't get me wrong, it's still a great toy and it's not really that noticeable, but sitting next to my GI it just seems out of place with the shorter stacks.

I almost forgot to mention this, the pepsi primes coming from Mountain Dew might have two pieces of tape on one end. It looks like at one point a bunch of these were assembled and they forgot something so they had to slice the tape, insert whatever it was, then reseal it. I mention this because both of them are like this and the ones coming from hasbro don't have two tape pieces on either end. Both of the ones I got shipped seperately too. I've opened one and there's nothing missing. Just thought I'd share for those who might get one of these of ebay and think they got jacked because one end appears to have been opened. It may not have been. Just ask if the one you are bidding on is one of the mountain dew ones and ask they send you the 3"x4" congratulation card that comes with it. Of course I'm sure most of you either got one at BOTCON, a friend who went or off HTS when they were available but I thought I'd mention this just incase. My guess is at one point they forgot to insert the sticker sheet or instructions and had to rework a bunch of these. Or they had to remove something. Either way it shouldn't be something to be too alarmed about.

That's pretty much what it was. I've been pretty busy and I was just happy to get one so I posted. I didn't mean anything by my reply to Ruiner either, I was just being goofy. No harm, no foul eh ruiner?

mcyoda and mcobi are back in stock on HTS. Just snagged one.

Any sightings of W4 yet?  Its been a real lull around Minneapolis the last month.   

I saw on New Forces home page that hasbro has emailed them that various new waves including UGH are in transit to them now and could be shipping out next week. This may mean a glut of waves hitting at once so expect to feel it in your wallet. So if they don't start showing this weekend maybe next week/weekend we could start seeing them.

I haven't really been picking up much since Hasbro took over the license. However, I did manage to purchase a small collection of early/mid 90's toy biz x-men/x-men x-force figures over the weekend. Not that I want to start collecting that scale but they were just too cheap to resist.

I saw these Saturday at Target on clearance and managed to snag 5 snowtroopers and 1 each of the remaining figs. I told myself after the last run that I wasn't going to pick this up first thing and wait for a clearance. I kept thinking I'd run into a set on clearance and sure enough I did.

I've not been really interested in this line but I've wanted that Black Pearl ship playset since it came out for the last movie. It's just a bit pricey at $45-$65 depending on the store. Then I ran into the odd Wal-mart that had them at $24.97. I couldn't pass that up but why does one Wal-mart discount so heavy and others don't? It's just odd to me.
