I've never felt old until about three weeks ago when I worked with a 22 y/o. My sister and one of my brother-in-laws are both turning 21 this year. I gained a very different perspective that week.

Hi, I'm 26.

#sorrynotsorry

So full of life and vibrance this one

Quite.

Trying to remember my big figure purchase at 26..2008/2009...movie stuff?

I feel like I stumbled into a time warp back to a 1995 America Online chat room and someone typed "ASL"

When I turned 26 I had only been married for 5 months. That was 14 years ago.

Well snap!! ALMOST 14 years right? Did you already have your birthday?! Did I miss it?!

I barely remember 26. Might be better that way.
But at my age, I'm lucky if I can remember pants.

30 is when life really got cool for me.
Young enough to still matter, old enough to know better.

Yup and yup. This year is a biggun and I'm offering whisky and steak to all who are willing to make the trip.

Yeah, 26 seems like a lifetime or two ago.

We had a dirty 30 pirate booty party when I turned 30. Arrrr!

Sounds quite dirty.

Hi I can't remember turning 26....maybe cause I haven't got there yet....

Also: Cary I took my dive into minicons last night and got Divebomb and Slipstream, and they are awesome! virtually no posability, but they are wonderful little devils. and cute too. my GF loves Slipstream and told me how adorable he was

Awesome, I like them all but I have a few stand outs. I really like the quad legged Airazor. Such a wicked looking lil dude. I need MOAR!

I caved and bought the 4-pack.

HAHAHA Whatcha think of them? Any regrets? Backtrack is like the raddest, amiright?

I mentioned somewhere, but if ya missed it: I started paring all these lil guys with other bots from other lines based on color. I put the Scorch Strike Beastbox with Gen Wreck-Gar for example.

I had a butt load of pics I wanted to take yesterday while I had time, but we wasted the entire day waiting on a plumber to show up ah, the joys of home ownership.

I'm in town this week, so maybe I'll have time to share some of my craziness.

Haven't opened them yet. I'll report back as soon as I do.

I love the little dudes. I am trying to wait out am Airazor and Jetstorm individual release so I don't need those deployers. I am thinking of getting just a few more, even if they aren't in the show

Hey D. Takara is doing individual Jetstorm. Saw it on BBTS, and thought of both of you. He's $10 but that's better than $20 for the Drift deployer. Just food for thought.

I'd recommend a couple standouts; Beastbox, Dragonus and Backtrack (bonus; he's sorta in the show).

WUT!?! How did I miss that? Well, well let me go check those out. The deco's on Tak's are outstanding.

Thanks Cobs! Though I don't see how I can justify $22 before shipping for 2 minis....

Beast Box was my main non-show one I was thinking about

PoL that stuff. I wait until they make me ship my loot. Crazy cheap shipping then. PoL for me = Patience of Legends

Biggest thing is though, I virtually never use BBTS. I think I can only ever say to have used them once

I have a new small PoL with BBTS I'm working on. As things either go on sale or catch my interest I just drop them in there. I also have a pretty large stack with TFS. It's got some stuff I want, but I just want to keep adding stuff so it all ships free.

I may actually get Tak's Jetstorm from BBTS. I was waiting on a sale for deployer Drift, but Jetstorm is really really bland in that pack and I'm also trying to figure out where to put deployer Fracture (maybe he will just be Mega Man's permanent ride). I'll mull it over a bit.

You gotta do what works for you.

Is this the Samus from WoN you said is turrrrrible?

I've read its not the best and I'm spoiled by the figma version. The articulation is supposed to be pretty lackluster and appears that way in package.

I've seen plenty in store and they are not that nice shiney metallic paint. A boring shade of un-painted orange. But for $15 it's a perfectly acceptable figure.


I plan on buying the purple gravity suit version the moment I spot one.


I'd get the vanilla version of I didn't own the figma Samus.

If you find some that look like that pic, buy two and bill me!

So, in short, buy shiny and gravity. If I see them I will!!
