I know there's a few guys on here who have yet to find one, so I picked up an X-Men Classics Arcgangel today. It's on a damged card, but that doesn't matter if you collect loose. PM me if anyone wants to buy or trade.

I never realy followed Marvel or the comics or anything, But I always liked the Punisher merchandice, I picked that one up a few weeks ago. I saw a series 2 Fireball or someone, I wasnt sure if it was rare or not, it looked like a ****ty figure, so i didnt buy it. Is it worth getting? Ill go back and see if its still there if anyone wants it.
What are the chases/rare ones out there to pick up?
Oh and I'm speaking of the Marvel Classics/legends figure line.

Human Torch...not rare at all. I found Abomination today, when I was calling a bunch of comic shops. About 5 in Ontario had gottten them, and sold out of Abomination. I called one store, 6 hours away because I didn't realized they were that far, and they had one left. The guy offered to ship it to me, in 1 day Xpress post. So it's coming tomorow. He had a $5 mark up on it, which isn't too bad, all the other stores that had it had the same mark up. It came to $32 including tax and shipping. Good price, only about $9 more than I'd pay had I found it here (for $20). Hooray, I'm so happi.  Oh, and XMC may hit here tomorow (through Diamond)...sure as hell hope so. |

Found not one, but TWO Archangels today. Bought them both. Sucky thing is that I got one for my friend, and called his parents to see if they got him one. Turns out they did. So now I need to get rid of one Archy.

I just read on Fwooshnet, HC 2 might be the last series. I didn't have a whole lot of faith in Hulk, but I really grew to love this line. Hopefully TB decides to keep it around a little longer.

Actually, HC 1 is selling really well at KB. And HC 2 is still being shipped in split cases with XMC. So the number of Hulks is dwarfed by the number of Wolverine figures. |

Anyways, I got my Abomination today, completing HC1 and he's great. He looks cooler than in the pictures, but not as good as the protos..still an awesome figure. I want to order Archangel, Cyke, and Mecha Hulk, but I'm waiting to see how much it'll cost in shipping to Canada. |

That maybe true, but every KB here has closed so I only have Target, Wal-Mart and Toys R Us now. There are two malls nearby and each closed last week. It sucks |

I saw a Marvel Select Wolverine with crouching Magneto today at Gamestop. It looked pretty cool but I will wait for the one in the next series. No luck finding an Abomination or Archangel for my friend Derek.

adctalk.com/index.php?showtopic=1961774&st=0&....... Beautifully crafted art deco variants? Scarcity kept in mind? Ugh. Well, I guess these "variants" are going to be just as hard to find as the chases, at least thats what I got from the article...that they're just making variant chases again. And re releasing chases? Fine. But the variant thing is annoying. Toybiz aggravates the hell out of me, sometimes.
