Sorry for the delay I am not the best when it comes to getting back to people. Thanks, I love collecting and I enjoy sharing with others what I can get my hands on. I try not to get too carried away with it and at times I will "try" to take a break, but then I come across something that just pulls me back in. I have a lot of fun with my collection and at times wish I had more time to put into organizing, cataloging and displaying it. It's funny you mention wives because just last night my wife made a crack about me being obsessive about it, but you know what it's a part of who we are whether or not they get it.

I use your collection as reference when it comes to harder to find items (hope you don't mind) and tend to keep an eye out for them. I saw the sword and it the price seemed right so I pick it up and I am very happy I did.

It is a very cool sword and I am very happy I was able to find one. The first thing I wanted to do was take it out of the box and start swinging it around. Oh well, maybe I'll try find another one for "my kids".

It's been awhile since I have been on here, let alone updated anything. So here are a few additions to my collection since the last time.


Next Mutation Producers Statue


Finally found all of these Tengamo things


Bussrok, Multiflex and Secret Agent Don



Plus I have been trying to keep up with all of the new comics and books that have been coming out.

[IamtheNorm]

The Splinter came in the mail today and the Metalhead w/o the starburst came about a month ago. I am very excited about these two pieces and I am planning on getting them graded soon.

[TheCanadiandrome]

I would be very excited too. I missed out on a metal head like that a couple weeks ago on eBay, i will get the next one. I have actually seen 3 in the past 3 months which is pretty uncommon. Two of them were listed buy it now for $70 and i was not at the right place at the right time.

Splinter looks very nice. I hope the grading goes well. Another user on the forum had a very tough time getting one of their fan club variants graded. Did you trade for this figure, or did you find it on eBay? I keep looking at the April Fan club that is listed right now but the seller wants quite a bit for it.

Congrats, those are some very nice pieces.

Thanks, I hope it goes well too. I ended up finding them both off of ebay. I made an offer for the figure and the seller accepted it, which was I was kinda surprised by. I have made an offer for that April as well, but the guy didn't accept it. Maybe one day.

Thats the spirit. April is the easiest to find of the fan club variants anyway. However, my offer was declined as well. Like you said, one day.

Rare fan club figures are my favorites, awesome you got a splinter, metalhead is great to

[OA]

The no starburst Metalhead was always my favorite carded variant that always seemed to not get much love from the collector base at large. Which was good for me back when I was buying figures, because I was able to pick up a few of them through the years at low prices. And FCs are always awesome. Congrats!

For the time being until I have a little more room to display the stuff I currently have, I am going to keep them sealed. But yeah I agree they are both very cool pieces, thanks.

Hey dude, I ended up buying that April, I had to sell a couple figures to make it happen, but I'm happy. I sent in a genghis frog with bagged grenades and fan club April to be graded yesterday. I'm excited.

Have you sent in metalhead / splinter?

That's awesome. I did actually, I sent them in late last week and recieved my invoice for them. So on Monday I am going to check the status of them and see how far along they are with the process.
