Good morning Cantina!​

Oh the photoshop possibilities...

Congrats Fury!

No way!! My wife has the date saved on her calender: "Dinner date with dorks", meaning you and I. I'm looking forward to it, brother!

"All too easy."

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Don't you dare.

Hey gang, the Mythos Lomrok sold out. The first Mythos sell out. Of course with only 750 made...

 

[FLOSI]

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Lomrok? Is that the Gammy?

 

[MadCow]

Haha, wow. Let me see if I can make a list like yours... I've never thought about it and put it down on a list...this should be fun, and scary...

-Comic books (various publishers)
-Anything relating to early Image Comics years, including swag and advertising stuff.
-Spawn: anything and everything. My main focus
-Star Wars
-Comic and movie related statues (SSC, CS Moore, Bowen, etc.)
-Simpsons
-Tron
-Terminator
-Metal Gear Solid
-Comic trading cards and boxes
-Video games and video game related items/figures
-Hot wheels (mainly movie/tv/pop culture related cars)
-Mcfarlane properties (not much put out these days but I actively collect most of the stuff McF Toys produced other than Halo... although I have a bit of it)


Things I dabble in... if there is something cool put out like figs, statues or whatever based on these I get them

-TMNT
-Indiana Jones
-Transformers
-Conan

I will eventually get into collecting MASK stuff, just haven't jumped in yet.

Looks like we share a lot of the same interests! I didn't know you collected non sports cards. We'll have to see if either of us has anything the other needs. I have tons of extras of stuff. Mainly comics cards etc.

I know it is scary to think about. It looks like we do have some similar tastes, pretty cool. With the non-sports cards, this may sound weird but, I only collect unopened vintage packs and boxes. I do have some Odd Loose cards like GPK and some movie sets. The packs are pure nostalgia for me with good memories of walking to the corner drugstore and seeing all the boxes and packs with cool artwork. It's something cheap and fun to collect.

As for MASK, I started snapping some pics for you. I have about 6 big tubs off it to go through to see what I have doubles of. Ill Pm you what I have So far.

Hey, did you all see that I won a pretty great contest recently? You know the show Warehouse 13? (if you don't, I will smack you)...well, they are holding a 'submit an artifact' contest and I submitted one for the first week's entry, and it won. I got a cool t-shirt and some buttons. Once the final winners (they do it weekly until the mid of June) are selected, we will all go up against each other for a grand prize. I'm really praying I win.

It wouldn't hurt for some of you to you know, go to the page and comment on how mine totally rocks.

Anyways, Here is the photo of it:

congrats, Buffy and good luck!

Good morning Cantina!​

I'm here to wholeheartedly thank you for your generosity on the day of my graduation. I'm blown away by your generosity, but more importantly I just feel fortunate to have a tiny oasis on the internet where I can feel comfortable in my geeky and otherwise obtuse nature. At times during my four year journey to this day, I've drawn strength from the camaraderie found here on our fine freaks board. It's been a long time coming, and I'm still a bit in shock that the day is actually finally here. Some of you may know, and others may not. I was not chosen the first time I applied to the program in 2010. Didn't expect to be honesty. But then I was not chosen again in 2011, and was kind of gutted because I was then fully prepared for the program with all prerequisites completed. Then, of course, I was called up as an alternate when another dropped. Well, I'm here to tell you, that this alternate rose to the challenge and finished at the very top of my class. Okay there's only ten of us, but still. I have straight A's in all of my core courses, with just a couple of minuses. And the best part is that I scored a 90 on the ARRT national board exam in Radiation Therapy. I'm only the third person from our program in ten years to score in the 90's. Pretty happy right here.

So, enough boring words. I want to thank each of you who contributed to the spectacular gift I received from my brother Waller this morning.

Darth Waller - my amigo, Thank you!
Avfin - my amigo, Thank you!
Flosi - my S.F. connection, Thank you!
KenBenobi - my WonderCon roommate, Thank you!
UTtoyfan - my LEGO hookup, thank you!
Shropt - my Stormtrooper, and protector of the Frau, Thank you!
VASith - my Commonwealth connection, Thank you!
MadCow - my voice of reason, Thank you!
Boba Ben - my youthful point of view, Thank you!

Thanks again Cantina!
I appreciate it immensely.​

Congrats!!!! You're very welcome, you deserve it! It's been a pleasure to share this crazy journey with you and thank you for sharing it with us.

Yes, but I was having trouble spelling Gamorrean Guard...

He's officially sold out too. Just checked. Not that fake waitlist or anything.

Cool on the MASK. I can't believe I missed Cory's lot. I didn't know he was selling any of it. I would've taken it all and he could've avoided that whole ordeal with Firefly...

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Congrats again fury. I need to ask my sister some radiation questions so I can quiz you. Muhahahahaa

Don't you dare.

Thought about ordering it last night. I saw the tweet that the quantity was low, but the page didn't show the final 10 countdown, so I thought it was typical Sideshow trickery... Oh well...

 

[furystorm]

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

You can buy mine...

For $2500! But I'll give you 10% off today only.

Speaking of which, everything in my FS thread is 10% off today. Hitting eBay with it hard tomorrow, and adding things. I'm enjoying selling before we are forced to move...

Congrats, my friend! You are a stand-up Freak, and clearly worked hard for your degree, so you deserve to buy that R2!!! Which you can then send to me.

That's how I feel every night, with pizza.

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

I could drive to your house and kick your door down.

Better knock first. He might be naked.

Just locked the door, cuz I am indeed naked... Granted, I'm at work. But I'll be naked later at home, too...

Congrats my buddy fury!!

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

I was going to text you but I read a few posts later that you received one. So then I didn't bother.

My phone may suck, but it IS capable of receiving more than one text!
