if it goes lower than $10, and I expect it will if they linger, i am in for a couple more. Would like to customize a csreen accurate Oppress with missing arm, cut horn, etc.

I finally got around to picking up the "Blue Gun" IG-86 variant MOC off eBay. It took me awhile to dig out my original one to see which I had. Luckily I have plenty of time for little projects like this with the line on hiatus right now. Woot!

LOL, Linda Cardellini...whatever happened to her after ER?
Wasn't there a talent-spawning show just like this in the 80's called Square Pegs?

I was just wondering today if they would still be stocking any figures or not going forward. The one near me sold through most of what they had in their wheelbarrows, so it seems to have done well for them. They're definitely worth a stop for me at least once or twice a week...

Dude has been cashing checks purely on an overhyped rep for years now. All the Alias/Lost/Cloverfield goodwill will only get you so far...

Walmart clearance rocks...I got a brand new Dropship Class I set for $8! And at this location I even found one of the 2012 8-packs with Wolffe/Rex/Boss, etc. So I picked up that for $12.50 as well. Good times!

I read about this Spider Man thing last night for the first time and it disgusts me, I'm not gonna lie. I'm glad I'm way past done with that book.
I swear to God, out of all artistic media, comic book writers have the LEAST respect for history and the sanctity of their franchises. They're a callow, soulless lot that will trawl out any old despicable piece of trash for the sake of making a quick buck. Anyone involved with this book should be ashamed of themselves. (And I've lost count of how many times I have said that over the past 10 years)
I honestly believe this is just some sick, perverted ploy to have you-know-who get into MJ's pants. This is almost as bad as that Gwen Stacey/Hobgoblin thing I heard about a few years back. Is nothing sacred?

Oh man, these hit clearance at my local Walmart for 50% off! Eight figures for $12.50? Sign me up! I picked up one with the camo Arf and Embo...definitely would not mind getting a few more though, $1.56 a figure is too hard to pass up. Some good army building potential there. Good hunting!

Damn, they need to take a page from the Deep-Discount practices of Target or Walmart, that's more or less what I paid for my opener a few months ago just using Rewards.
It's a great figure, but they need to get more agressive if they really want to blow these out.

Happy holidays to all...I finally got my Bill Me Later balance down to zero by the end of the year as hoped. 
Tomorrow I look forward to finally opening my spare Y-Wing Scout Bomber...and Nom Anor courtesy of a fellow collector.
