hi Firefly, im from queens what part of queens u from and no i didnt take your CG.

LOL. Astoria. :wave. You?

According to the SSC agent I spoke to yesterday, they make you sign for any item over $150.00 and if I request a sig for every delivery regardless of the item cost, UPS would make 3 attempts and ship the item back if undelivered. I would then be responsible for the return shipping charge to SSC and the shipping charge to send the item back to me if I wanted the item.

First time this ever happened. I think the UPS guy either took the package or delivered at the wrong address. Or it's currently displayed at a neighbor's house.

Currently pending investigation. SSC did promise to replace the item with another ex if it's not found. So hopefully this will have a happy ending.
 
The Crimson Guard was one of my favorite figures from the 80's line. Tried to pay a little homage to the original by getting rid of the gold (decorations/buttons) and replacing them with silver. I also added a few pouches to the belts (2 right and 1 left).

That was a huge gamble. Glad didnt have any problems. I kinda like having to sign for stuff. I take is as extra security.

Thanks man and you're right,but working all the time to pay for this stuff! Besides we have a fairly large covered porch with sides as to conceal my packages

looks good, tk!

i have two more of those showing up tomorrow. may have to "work from home" so i don't miss the ups man.
 
TK, no squad of Crimson Guardsmen yet like your Trooper and Viper squad? :lol

I wanna see your army build with the CGs, althougth by nature I don't think one can do as much customization with them as a lot us did with the Troopers and Vipers.

Heh! I'm trying to keep it down to 2 CG's:monkey3

Still, an army would be nice:slap:gah:
 
Argh, had to cancel this guy due to baby/one income concerns... Hopefully when she gets older and we're back to two incomes I can track down an exclusive.

That one hurt. :(
 
Pulled the trigger on the Exclusive CG today!
Kinda on the fence to start with...but the in hand pics you guys posted sealed the deal.
 

Yeah, well, like I said. Maybe I'll pick it up later. I'm glad I have the three main infantry types at least - Cobra Trooper, Officer and Viper. Maybe I'll just pass on all the specialist troops in the end. Hard to find room after all. :)

Shoot me a pm, been thinking about buying a baby.

Cheap to make yourself, expensive to keep!

Well, grats on the baby, sucks about the figure though.

Thanks!

hell, your collecting days are over now. but congrats on the baby

Heh, sort of on hiatus. I can still trade for stuff at least. :)

Actually, that might be a good way to get this... and Baroness... I do still have a few HT figures to get rid of...
