Thanks for letting me know. They look brilliant. I'll take a look.
Your whole collection looks good.
What else have you got? I've managed to get a HT Arkham City Batman, HT Man of Steel, a couple of Sideshow clone troopers and a Stormtrooper along with a Kotobukiya Batman and Two master replica helmets.

It's becoming an expensive habit! Or something like that!

i cant buy anything from america as the import duty is just ridiculous

i was bidding on a 89 batman that was barely above £100 but then mysteriously the ebay listing dissappears and all bid gets cancelled.

It's a nightmare the import duty. I think it's an even more expensive habit in the UK.

How big are the boxes by the way and are the posters normal ones or special ones?
Thanks.

Sounds like you have quite the collection going as well! There's quite a few pickups I haven't added to my gallery yet, and just found out that the Mark III Iron Man and Han & Chewie are shipping out tomorrow!

To answer your questions about the lightboxes, they are official movie poster size, 27x40. Just get the double sided original posters that the cinema's use and you're good to go.

I'm not taking a picture of the "Sorry, we missed you" card my fe-mailman left in my mailbox yesterday. I hope I can nab it after work. Otherwise, it'll be during lunch tomorrow.

$300 for me is a bargain price for any OOP hot toy lol

I feel for you all. You really do get screwed with the prices.

[DarkEco910]

It's a striptease. Lol.













He has some loose arm joints, but other than that, it's just incredible. I'm speechless. Hoping I can build my Detolf this weekend.

[DJJez]

awesome, i hope one day to pick one of these up!

[Ant1010]

when do you think these Mondo TMNT toys get recalled?

[Petra_Kalbrain]

That can't be real. Must be photoshopped. If you look closely it would have been designed with that "member" placed as actual genitalia intentionally. If it was some kind of extension of the shell it would be more believably an accidental innocent design flaw.

[Underworld54]

Oh it seems to be real.

Without specifically being told that and based on the pics shown, that is much more suggestive based on its positioning on the actual figure. It doesn't take a "filthy animal" to come to the afore mentioned conclusions.

Then it should be near the back of the figure, just below the shell. Placing it closer to the front makes it more suggestive.
