    G.I. Kre-O, Kre-O, MegaBloks CoD and LEGO discussions

    I'm only interested in the base. I couldn't care less about the actual Pelican vehicle. To me, halo vehicles are only good for parts fodder. I never build them, just pitch the pieces into sorted bins. Occasionally my son will build one, but again, he's pretty ambivalent about where the set...

    I just keep buying MB sets on clearance like a fool, but I've only built about half of them. Every saturday, my 9-year-old son just wanders into my toy closet, pulls out a new set, and builds something. He doesn't really care about military stuff, but he has the most awesomely random CoD...

    Nice... I still have so many CoD sets left to build. I love them, but the birds take up so much room. Still haven't built the blackhawk or little bird. Maybe I'm just lazy.

    Yeah, but does having a "uniform theme" outweigh the downside of being really confusing to the customers? My spidey-sense is tingling, and it's screaming "bullshit".

    Yeah, from a galloping horse, it's tough to tell. You really have to look at the torso for the presence/absence of the ab-crunch joint, most of the new 4" figures don't have the double elbows either, and the 4" figs don't have the upper thigh cut. But yeah, they aren't exactly making it easy...

    Yeah, I live on a farm in the boonies, so my Toyota does go off-road on occasion. Not a ton, as I'm not a muddin' frat-bro, but it's necessary part of the time. I haul trash in it, construction equipment, and drive it into the woods. It's got scratches, a few dents... definitely not a garage...

    Eh, I drive a Toyota 4x4 assembled here and a Camaro assembled in Canada. Which is better? Domestic profits and canadian jobs, or foreign profits and domestic jobs? It's not about falling for a "lie". It's about grey areas of corporate economics that have no bearing on my purchase decision...

    Dear lord, we're getting a Polaris. It's modern deco, but I'll take it. Now she can kick the Wasp's tiny ass and take her man back.

    Eddie's no traitor. He would rather drive a Ford made in Mexico than a "foreign" car made in Tennessee ;)

    70's Dazzler.... SMH. If there was ever a more useless figure than roller-skating disco dazzler, i'd like to see it. I'm praying for the blue variant, and at the very least, given ML's history of variants and running changes, maybe maybe maybe there's a chance we'll get the good Dazzler. The...

    While I'm appreciative of the effort, as I never thought I'd see an old-school Rogue figure, this JRJR design isn't my favorite. I might have to get a spare to customize with knee-high boots and green bikini bottoms, circa Fall of the Mutants. At some point, I will complete the Outback era...

    I don't recall any version of Robin that wore shorts w/ red pixie boots. Is that from a video game or Earth-27?

    I still haven't seen the scarlet spider comic pack, much less Rogue. Hell, the only brick and mortar store that carries them anymore around here is Kroger! Maybe HTS will stock them soon enough.

    ok, so Rogue, X-23, and a bunch of stuff not even worthy of fodder. Gonna be a cheap back half of the year.

    I live on the TN river, which is controlled by a series of dams. If I get flooded, it can only be due to massive dam failure.... meaning that it'll be more than a foot of water and a call to service master. It'll be more like one of those "end of days" movies where 40ft of water wipes away a...

    I have a toy warehouse (a literal storage unit, a big one) full of new toys (monkey depot, anyone?) and ARAH vehicles, playsets, etc. Some of it is my original toys, but I also bought tons of stuff for dio-building and for creating the huge battles I always dreamed of as a kid with my son. But...

    I love that they're making a fig of the modern scarlet spider... but what a worthless piece of crap. How are you supposed to get in any kind of spider-guy pose with zero waist or torso articulation?! He looks like a dollar store figure. I'm a sucker, and I'll probably buy it, but I'll be...

    Interesting. That one wasn't mentioned at Toyfair. I thought they were giving up on the WWII sets.
