SSC Duke 12 inch figure

[Firefly1979]

I thought that post was pretty self explanatory but I digress...

Justifying not picking up the other exclusives by calling them lame, is infact, lame in and of itself. If the real reason is because you felt the exclusives didn't justify the mark-up of buying them from Sideshow directly, that's something else entirely. It doesn't make the exclusives "lame," but does make your decision to be frugal and deflecting that decision on them, pathetic.

Just because I think a dagger, and nunchucks are lame is my opinion. Does not mean anyone else thinks that. Hardly makes me sound pathetic. I wanted the Cobra Commander Exclusive, but just couldnt afford it at the time. But I was lucky enough to find the cane. Your posts are not only a lame attempt at being witty, but you are just making yourself look really stupid. It's a nice day out today. Get up out of your parents basement and get some fresh air. Have a good day.

Ooooh, more deflection.

No need to be witty. After I make them lunch, I'll be taking my kids to the beach later; one of the benefits to having an apartment a few blocks from the beach. You think about that while you're stuffing the next "large fries" carton, sweating your ass off.

U have to get all the exclusives, look at how happy this guy with all his... I think that is Craw.

Wow Craw, break me off a piece of THAT!

 

[The Craw]

ah yes. that's the one rare shot of me when i'm actually wearing underwear.

Can anybody identify which Dragon sculpt this is? It looks a lot more like Duke than Sideshow's sculpt.

 

[MANDO]

That's a really good sculpt for Dragon. Everyone has their own concept of what Duke, in particular, looks like. Oddly the '83/'84 figure has slicked back hair and thankfully no one's gone with that.

Meanwhile...

I meant to post this sooner as it works for Duke and Steel Brigade (and those making Airborne figures ). I don't see the backpack in stock at my regular spots but it's DID I believe and the shovel comes from just about anywhere. For those wanting something a little more classic:

WOW! That is a great headsculpt! I need to get that to replace my duke head!

I guess if I was unemployed and on foodstamps like you, I could afford the exclusives! I need to quit my job immediately!

that Dragon head while nice is very non-Elite™. though i think that was my head. can't remember but i think i sold it to Elvis or Mando or somebody and they customized it.

 

[MANDO]

THAT'S where I've seen it before! It's the one Seb used.

That's the one I'm looking for!

 

[Skiman]

I see RB

 

[EVILFACE]

RB looks good so far!!

Much like every other dribble-filled post you've made, that makes absolutely no sense.

Thanks guys! That's a really old shot. Haven't worked on him in a while. Though his pants did get dyed the appropriate shade of brown/orange.

Devil's advocate. If you take into account paying $30 over retail for Snakes and Storm it sort of balances out the the better deals making them much less sweet.

Thanks man! It's a combination of my local comic shop, gohastings and some good boardies. You can get almost all of them for below retail now. Well except for SE and SS.

Yeah that's sort of true. But if you look at CC or the Cobra Trooper those were 99-100 and got them for 40. So that alone is a savings of 50-60 dollars. Not too shabby. Im still looking for a cheap Cobra Officer. I saw one for 35 not too long ago, but took too long on pulling the trigger!
