That Arino figure is pretty dope. Game Center CX is a great show but I don't have many friends that watch it. Got this sweet Professor Layton figure at the flea market this morning for $30, and a bunch of other random vintage toys. :-J

That's a steal. I remember when it first came out. It shot up from MSRP to like $150 overnight. It's died down a bit, but still worth more than double what you paid for it.

Does anyone here collect the old WWF Hasbro figure? Thinking about starting a collection of them, prices seem all over the place though.

Nope, I don't have any of those, but, they're pretty cool. I still remember the old rubbery LJN ones too, especially the thumb-wrestling ones where'd you stick your thumb up their hollow asses, lol. My younger brother had a couple of those when we were kids.

9) WEST: Domestic Disturbance – 10:03 p.m. Officers were dispatched to a West side residential address, reference a domestic disturbance between the victim (46-year-old AF) and her husband/suspect (34-year-old WM). The suspect called 911 on himself reference his actions in response to drinking too much and then overreacting when believing his wife had damaged some of his prized property (action figures). The suspect had wielded a log-splitting axe and after his wife had left the residence, he subsequently used the axe to destroy the TV, TV stand, laptop computer, and several other items in the house. The suspect then moved outside and smashed the family car, chopping off both side mirrors and eventually striking the windshield with such force that the axe became stuck. When officers arrived, they found the axe embedded in the windshield of the car. The damages eclipsed $5000. Officers took the suspect into custody without incident. The suspect was arrested for domestic-related charges of disorderly conduct and felony damage to property. The suspect was conveyed to jail.

Holy crap. I wonder what action figure pushed him over the edge? For being drunk he has quite a bit of axe destruction skills. :P

Random assortment of McFarlane Toys & MegaBloks HALO action figures and parts that I picked up for $3 on Saturday. Doubtlessly missing some guns, armor bits, and other doodads, but, for the price, I couldn't say no. There was also a black LEGO Technic/Bionicle strut in the bag for no earthly reason.

Believe it or not, I've never actually played any of the HALO video games in my life (never got any of the Xboxes), but, that's what collectards do, buy shit they don't even care about. :D Even though I'm not terribly familiar with the source material, they're still pretty nice action figures.

Yep. That was an instant preorder for me when I saw it.

I actively try to avoid giving GameStop money, but that and the Gamer Gremlin from NECA broke my will temporarily.

Glad to see this thread still going.
DDR Champion almost killed the thread with his outlandishly lavish display of hoarder's complex contributing the dissolution of his family, making the rest of us reexamine our lifestyles.

Yeah, take the joke seriously. Man up by selfishly spending thousands of dollars monthly of my family's money on stuff only for me to fill up OUR house with. If you're going to spend all that money on yourself, futilely trying to fill the gaping hole within yourself, why don't you spend it on something that will actually make your life and that of the people you're supposed to be taking care of better? Therapy.

One more $1000 statue and maybe you'll be satisfied? It won't work. It will never work. Get help. If not for yourself, then for however many family members you have left. I made the choice to share my life with someone and have a family. I'm not the one trying to pretend I'm still single in my early 20s like they don't exist. You are legitimately pathetic.

To be fair to him, he's a closeted homosexual who probably only got married because of peer pressure from family, a mail order wife, etc...

None, just a bunch of jealous people who cant handle someone buying a $1000 statue. This is the neo forum where people have arcade cabinets in their homes & spend $1000 on PCB kits. For STK case, his wife controls the money and only allows him to buy free ipad games.

I really feel bad for you pal. Having that ball and chain for how long now? It must really suck to not be able to do what you want to do. You're even brainwash in thinking its ok to be miserable.

Can I get a little more info on that Bruticus? Is that an official TFormers release, or is it one of those private company custom jobs? Also, where and how much?
