UK findings and buying thread

who fucking asked you to be all sensible?

Fascist!!

well I preorderd all the way up till Series 13. Trying my best to get sets that allow doubles of evey figure.

They offer at least 3 different case break downs. They have cases of 8 or 10 But with the 10 you get doubles of some figures and definately a repack which does me no good.

So I have to choose wisely. I almost made the mistake of ordering Series 11 from Matty.com. thinking it was a box set. It would have been cheaper but I don't think they included both Stepnwolves.

They DO offer both steppenwolfs. THey dont offer phasing deadman. Which is fine

the next series i order from them is just for one or two figs then sell the rest on. It still works out cheaper taht way LOL

DCUC Deadshot finally arrived. I'm not too impressed to be honest, the paint apps are pap. I think I should have saved some pennies and bought the DC direct version.

Also got Bobble-head Bossk from play.com for £5 - Even though only the head moves its much better than Hasbro's offerings of late

The ones on my Deadshot were almost perfect. The DCD one has crazy elongated proportions.

I did see a couple of Deadshots with pants painting when picking mine up. That & the occasional incorrect body parts are the reasons I prefer to see them in person before buying.

Same here. I don't fancy going to FP though, as its a bit out of my way. Which wrong parts have you seen?

A Superman with 2 right forearms, both Robin & Sinestro (variant) with 2 left feet, Mantis with 2 left fists, Eradicator with 2 right fists

Oh! I thought you meant something like Wonder Woman with the Flash's right leg or something. I've seen plenty of those and own a few MLs and DCSHs like that. I think my DCUCs are more or less okay apart from the paint apps. It usually the biceps that they mess up on cos it can be hard to spot.

I don't blame the people in the factories for not giving a shit, I'd do exactly the same if I worked on a production line.

I bought the missus Toy Story Andy's room RC for xmas and it didn't even switch on, it cost me £70 as well. You think a toy like that would be QC checked but alas not. I took it back to Tesco and they gave me a replacement and £20.

I never had that happen with ML's but DCUC I've really had to watch.

That's terrible, although it was decent of Tescos to give you £20.

I just got the Lego RC it came with Buzz & Woody & only cost £15

Recen purchases are.....fuck all and oh fuck all other than cheap Joe.

How you guys been anyway?

I bought a NECA t-800 endo for £6, the day before I bought a Bobble-head Admiral Ackbar for £5 - I have a lot of love for Admiral Ackbar in all his forms.

I'm good thanks, been planning the garden for the summer and propogating seeds. Also been sorting out the baby's stuff, like cot pram etc. How you been rude boy?

I got a cheap Dalek collectors set & some cheap dvds but there's fuck all out until the end of the month

I did see a 12" Guitar Heroes Slash & a couple of Watchmen figures in TK Maxx today & the DCD Resistance figures which looked to be the best figures DCD have released in ages.

Watz resistansiz precious?

Resistance: Fall of Man it's a PS3 fps set in an alternative britain, it pissed off the church of england due to it using interior shots of Manchester Cathedral

HAHA yeah i remember reading about that.

Ironic the Church should get pissy about a violent game with images of a cathedral, have they forgotten their own BS violent history?

Sweet IMF hope all is well with the baby and missus?

The garden is sure to need some work after this fucky arse weather. My poor lily plant is dead again and so may not flower as good as it usually does

Im good, nothing's changed tbh work still kicks all kinds of ass and weight is going bit by bit

Yeah don't you just love hypocrites

I bet they went on a massive drug fueled orgy with the proceeds they got. Gerbils, human faeces up the walls, Jesus in a gimp suit nailed with dildos to a cross and sepulchres encrusted with dried lube - I can picture it now.

I think so thanks LT. The missus is like a whale now and struggling a bit, she's a trooper so she'll be alright.

Same here, my cordyline is screwed and so are a few other plants. My Lillies went ages ago Some of the winter stuff is doing okay, can't see it most of the time cos of the bloody snow.

I picked up a 3rd cheap classic Dalek set £9 & a cheap RC BTTF Delorean from Argos thanks to a mistake on the website it cost £15.99

Nice one. I like a bargain.

They've got MP Skywarp for 19.99 now.

Don't know if any of you have him, but here's MM Joker for cheap!!

Joker

I so want that Delorean But EE has it $44.

The BTTF 2 one is fantastic, they just need to release 3.75 scale Doc & Marty figures to go with it.

the deloreans are cool, i was driven in a real one when i was a nipper. Can't say what the drive was like i just thought they kicked ass
