I'll keep my opinions to myself when you actually start to mind your business instead of constantly instigating and gossiping. If your not going to be a fair and impartial mod than none of this concerns you because your really just yapping at the mouth at this point. FACT: Wake is an Official Business Partner of Iminime with control over distribution and involved in aftermarket gouging. FACT: armysoldier has been desperatly trying to create some outrageous value for Wonka only after he got "gouged" for 3K for his wonka, now he wants $10,000 :lol I mean he can ask what he wants for it, but if he wasn't so greedy he'd actually be helping the value of it by letting it appreciate gradually instead of going for the jugular and turning people off to it. FACT: I can't speak on who Heisenberg is....unless that's Teddy Daniels playing witness protection and changing his name again. I really don't have much to say about him, I put the last nail in his coffin sometime ago. But if you want to be the next Teddy Daniels, Armysoldier, Wake or whoever and keep derailing threads than lets get it on Sam, but make sure you have some real substance to whatever it is your trying to say.

No, I think we've seen enough of that. I have recused myself from actively infracting or banning members that I have had major disagreements with in the past, but at a certain point conduct detrimental to the mood and well-being of the board can't be ignored. Board membership is a privilege, and not a right. And playing well with others should be a prerequisite to that privilege IMO.

As for why this is my business? This is a forum I belong to and enjoy, and you bring it down all the time. For that reason, it's my business when you try to run people down. But I'm also a forum moderator, and it's my duty in part to try and maintain a good atmosphere, despite the difficulties of that in this section chock full of unchecked egos and entitlementitis. So yeah, it's my business when you start **** up on this public forum. If you want to start your own private forum to rant and rave about everyone under the sun, that's fine. But that isn't the case here, where civility is something I value very strongly.

So, let's drop it. And if I were you, I would think twice before making unfounded accusations or tossing around more insults toward any boardies. You've been getting away with it for a long time now, but enough is enough.

Agreed. I suggest the subject be dropped.
 
For anyone that has tried the mandarin sunglasses on the driver sculpt do the arms of them reach over the back of the ears so they fit correctly?.

I've tried two different sets of sunglasses on this sculpt and neither of them are long enough to sit behind the ears as they should.

Looking good Tay. :duff

Tay, if you were going for like a NY neon sign behind him, you achieved it perfectly.

:clap

Thanks guys. :hi5:
 
Finally got my customs notification this morning can go pick him up on the way home from work.
 
Taken a couple of hours to go through everything (Ill atm desperately trying to shake the flu before Xmas, 5 days to go lol) slept earlier so wide awake now its 3am atm and having a lot of fun going through the DX set. Man this set is incredible both sculpts are spot on 100% De Niro in hand I really think Lee has nailed it with them.

Everything is just top drawer the accessories, the clothing it's all flawless. So so impressed with this release easily up there with his best.

Looking at the clothing specifically we all know how good Yunsil is but this is another step forward the only tiny tiny negative is the lack of magnet closures on the shirts other than that perfection. The jeans are easily on par with Katos work they are that good! Everything is just so well done christ the belt buckle is a work of art in itself as are all the accessories.

Very VERY happy with my set
 
I put my cab version (which I'm finding myself liking more and more) on the shelf with my other Rainman figures, and was thinking the same. The likeness still really doesn't scream Deniro to me, but even sandwiched between Bill and the Dude, he looks great, and that's not something I can say about many figures I own.
 
Nice. Seems like RM has had a disproportionate number of psychopaths and/or psychotics. Narrator, Dexter, Alex, Angel Eyes, the Pulp Fiction guys, Plainview, arguably Wonka and Pee-Wee :D
 
The Rainman Randolphs sunglasses are great but after displaying mine with the CRM glasses I feel these are a better fit. They help draw out more attitude from the sculpt for my money and I like that they have the guards like the actual pair. Will most likely get the CRM's repainted with more of a bright brass frame and translucent smoke lens.
