  1. SY have also released a WWE figure range along with the Toy Story set. I'm not sure what their plans are for a next wave of Super Heroes but they do seem to be expanding their output. The next Decool wave has Punisher, Electro, Bullseye, Red Skull, Falcon and Taskmaster
  2. I've never bothered with the boxes although I do have one red Hulk that came in a box which is spare. One set of the Captain America Winter Soldier wave came in the boxes but I ended up binning them.
  3. I have a couple of sets of the Thing figures here in the UK if you're interested.
  4. I never let the location bother me when ordering broom BrickLink. Whether from the US, Canada, Europe... wherever... the postage to the UK hasn't been that bad unless it's been a particularly large parcel (replacement HP boxes). I've found some UK sellers have been more expensive for even tiny orders... Some think of postage and packing costs as a way of bumping the overall price!
  5. I love the fact that everyone else's reactions are too slow and they're still looking down the track... except Batman... who is looking directly at the runners on the finish line!
  6. To be completely honest... This doesn't seem close to the kind of angle Lego would take with any of their lines... Least of all SH. I think any humour or novelty value associated with it is insignificant to the marketing driven approach all the other sets we get have. I really just felt the need to say that based on the fact Hammy is still being discussed on a rumours thread. Oh God I certainly hope so anyway...
  7. Well if anyone wants to wish for an SDCC exclusive then there it is!
  8. So am I... Mine is ordered. If you'd like I'll ask Adam to include another one in the parcel if he's happy to do that? I'll just charge £1 for postage if you arrange payment with Adam for the figure?
  9. Not that you need another vote for BrickLink but it's definitely the place to go. Juno Eclipse isn't that expensive to be honest and I just bought her torso to make a custom Mara Jade. Vader's Apprentice on the other hand is getting a little pricey. I think I once tracked down the torso and head relatively cheaply (compared to the full figure).
  10. BrickLink doesn't list it as bring in any sets... the list of sets a piece is available in is available to view and is separated by the colour. The lavender piece you linked to doesn't actually appear in a set... at least not one that's listed on BL
  11. I posted several John Stewart and other GL torso front and backs as well as heads. It has it's own thread.
  12. That's the Fett from the 9496 set... Even the gun is the same. Not sure how they can top that except maybe some nice arm printing?
  13. These look good but for me the costs are prohibitive. They'd make a nice executive gift though and I think that's maybe where the market is for these especially as they're personalised.
  14. Fingers crossed SY tackle most of the figures as I really think they're head and shoulders above everybody else. I found using the helmet on the regular Cap (newer one) from the SY set was better although the eyes still don't line up perfectly. I switched a few things round between figures to get the best figures with those... I gave the other figures away. Whoops! PM on its way!
  15. Looking back I wish I'd picked up those Cyclops and Rogue figures from Eclipse when I had the chance. I think they're long gone now. Looking forward to adding that Cap figure now though! ;)
  16. The only EclipseGRAFX figure I've looked at in the past and thought 'I really should get that' was the Rogue figure. It looked pad printed although I'm not sure they are. I'm a little turned off by non-pad printed figures although I've bought some in the past. The way the ink sits on the ABS can detract from the overall effect... at least for me. I do have an Eclipse head on my custom SAS though... That looks pad printed.
  17. I have quite a few spares and I'll have some sets of the Thing bigfigs when mine arrive if you're interested. I think the Cap set is worth it for three of the figures alone.
  18. My Thing sets are in their way from China with 2 sets of the SY Avengers set. Just waiting for the Decool set with Bullseye to appear now!
  19. That's the first seller I've seen that won't ship to the UK. Thankfully my usual sellers are a little bit cheaper!
  20. I've been looking forward to this figure for a while! Can't wait for it to land so I can put my order in.
  21. I've actually got a spare Odin here with both sides of the head print pretty much bang on. Also got a spare Batman Beyond and Green Arrow with good face print on both sides. The hands don't really bother me... they're not so bad that I'd need to replace them... they hold things so they do their job. Replacing hair/hoods is dependent on just how good the plastic or the mould is. I agree with the Venom though... the Decool one isn't great. The SY version which was a copy of Christo's wasn't too bad. just replaced the legs.
  22. Try more like $2 + free shipping from China for close to pad printed.
  23. They may move into those areas and I for one would love to see that! I just think their main focus is on Super Heroes and some other themes popular in the east.
