I sold a extra dx10 still have 1 for collection and 2 t1 versions and 2 of dx 13 and no way selling favorites in collection. Also waiting
on new kaustic Konan kit. Bring on old King
Conan movie. Ha ha...

 

[Mr. EcKo]

No way. Getting out of collecting? For what is collecting if it doesn't include Terminator and Ahnuld?

Long story short, I've been out of work for almost a year. I got a back injury and really bad osteoarthritis in both my knees. Bills are piling up and I have to sell ALL MY FIGURES. I need $ bad. So my loss is everyones gain.

I was at the point I could barely walk.

Man I hope it works out for you.
It's when I read comments like these from foreign countries that I realize how lucky I am to live in a country where needs like medical and schools are basically free and I don't have to choose.

How much of your income goes to taxes? Percentage wise.

Well in the interview he said he is not monitoring it closely. It is not his movie and he is busy with Avatar. He had a few ideas here and there and he modified a script a little bit but that is it. He sounds good and it looks like he wants the movie to be good but I don't know. He is my favorite director of all time but his interviews about TG and T3 were laughable...he is all over the place sometimes. So anyway he wont have a big influence overall sadly.

I’d love to see what the Russo’s would do with a Terminator film.

Very unfortunate to hear of your situation, but desperate times calls for desperate measures. I think you would be better off selling your collection as individual pieces though. There are very few collectors out there who have the funds to spend on such a large job lot.

It will mean a bit more time and effort for you, but it means you should get the best price you can, as there are more collectors who can afford single figures. If you try and sell as a complete collection. you might be forced to cut the price down. I hope everything works out for you.

People always ask this question, and the answer is not as much as you think. And to not have student loans or any medical bills? For life?

The US wants you to think this is not possible without 50% tax on everyone.

I'm sorry to hear about your condition but just so you know, selling your figures is the brave thing to do. I know a lot of people that wouldn't let go of their stuff even when the need for money becomes life and death. What you're doing is absolutely the right thing. Hope all goes well for you!

Thanks Freaks for the nice words

Spoiler

10% to 20% depends if it's a good year.
Just saw a doc about us students loans...
Can you imagine starting your life owing 100000$+
Here higher learning does cost too, private schools too but you can also have a very good education with public schools without being in debt for life.
I teach motion design in a renowned private art school and the fees are not as expensive as I thought 10000$ a year.
Even if it ends up being costly the mindset is not to bleed you dry.
I have friends and family doing all sorts of studies and having money problems because you wanna do this or that was never an issue.
And I never heard people still in Debt for that years after finishing school.
The us society is ruthless and basically it's all about making you pay.
I love the USA but I'm glad I'm not living there.
Sorry about the sociology/political deviation.

Yikes what I feared is happening, the pleather on the jacket's arms is peeling.
I was worried about this since day one when I saw how thin it was unlike the MMS 117 or even dx10.
Really ****** material.
And of course since the release no good lookalike jacket available.
I will see if someone can re-leather it or maybe canibilize another jacket arms.
Urgh...

Both of mine have long crumbled to dust, along with any MMS117, DX10 and DX13 belts.

 

[olbertfrog]

Belts can be replaced easy, either make one or get a replacement, rubber ones that came with some art figures work great.

I can't find any belts that looks identical to the T2 one, mind sharing any?

 

[olbertfrog]

Identical no, but brown or black belts that you can mod using the original buckle.
