Hello...any sifu out there can recommend which series of Snake Eyes is the best (ie, articulation, gadgets...etc) ? I saw the GI Joe - Pursuit of Cobra..quite solid, come with a lot of weapons & interchangeable helmet  brows.gif

This is the version - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Snake-Eyes-Command...=item35b7925773

The price  rclxub.gif  shakehead.gif  shocking.gif

OT...
That is the DEFINITIVE version of SE that Joe collectors must own .Comes with a sh**load of accesories and it's not a helmet but his classic ninja with visor head .It's a two figure in one as you get ninja SE and commando SE .
I own 12 of them . smile.gif
It's rather expensive now but I managed to get all 12 for RM40 each ,which was the retail price for POC lineup ,while it was sold in certain toyshops in Malaysia .

Ninja style SE

Just saw X-Men first class and wolverine/sabretooth comic packs at TRU. The funny thing is that they were all missin their comic books and priced at RM99.95. LOL, asking you to pay more for a faulty Product. Anyone else encounter this problem?

Never seen those CPs at PG TRU although both were released months ago .
Without the comics ,it's consider incomplete ,so it should be selling at clearance price . rclxub.gif

Highlight the matter to the TRU manager and he/she should remove the item from the display .I informed TRU manager about an item missing some accesories and the manager told me it'll be sent back to HQ .And indeed ,when I returned to TRU few days later ,the item is not on peg display .

Unfortunately ,Parkson outlets in PG are rather slow in bringin in / restock toys hence the reliance on TRU . sad.gif

@ darkshadow - See the difference? Your pix shows the comics in the comic packs. Whereas the ones that hit our shores and Singapore, the Philippines and Hong Kong are all without the comics. Compare your pix and Malvo's and you'll see what we've all been talking about.


Added on December 24, 2011, 7:48 amAnyway, they're First Class comics. So they aren't great to start with. The First Class series was basically targeted at all-ages and sort of re-told the early years of the X-Men, Wolverine, etc.

Besides, these comic packs are not exclusives like those convention exclusives and mail-away exclusives and subscription offers and what-not.

So why are they priced so high? Doesn't make sense.

Furthermore, with these being priced as they are, nobody's buying them. The First Class Cyclops and Marvel Girl are not exactly considered canon or Marvel 616 characters so collectors are skipping them. As for Wolverine, well, there've been so many Wolverines to choose from so probably the only appealing figure is Sabretooth. But why pay RM99.95? So, PASS.
*
Yeah ,I see it .Could it be that the packs sans the comics are consider some kinda variants hence the overprice tag ? rclxub.gif
Perhaps Hasbro's manufacturers in China didn't get the memo that those CPs need to include the comic before shipping out and it was too late to recall them .

Jean Grey looks nice out of the bunch but with the packs fetching that price ,ughh .Not even gonna think twice .Just stay away from it ,pronto .

So TRU have readjusted the price...if it wasnt for the missing comic, I dun think they would budge.

As usual no new MUs figures haul on my end.

NEW YEAR and its 20th anniversary of the JIM LEE X-MEN Trading Cards series 1 produced by IMPEL (later known as SKYBOX)
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Received the package from Amazon. Got me a SW Force Attax binder to store the cards...cheaper than buying the card storing sleeves from the card gaming shops.

Later will post pics of some of the cards.
*
The only X-related cards I own were the '95 Fleer Ultra TC .Got over 100 of them ,all stored in sleeves .
How much does the sleeves cost now ?I remember back then it was RM 1 each .Bought a lot to store all my trading cards .

95 Fleer Ultra...the chromium cards right? Or is it the ones where the special cards are 9-panel Danger Room illustrated by Hildebrant Brothers and a 6-card foil event cards?

Those were the good old comic book/ trading card days.

The sleeves are selling for RM 2 here in Subang Jaya. Just one pc. I calculated the total cost hence its better to get those Match/ Force Attax sleeves which are binded together. I can actually remove the SW Force Attax album cover and replace it with some Marvel A4 printout.
*
Agreed ,it's more cost effective to purchase the SW album .I read somewhere there's also a Marvel Superheroes collection from that series .

Yeah ,there are I think 8-10 chromium cards and the awesome suspended animation cards .I own probably half of each .Back then ,those cards cost around RM8-9 per pack .Rather tough on student budget .

I made a mistake .The series I owned is from '94 Fleer .And there are 9-cards that form huge scenes .

Marvel ATTAX cards!? If there is, I will want to buy.

The 8-10 chromium should be the one drawn by Boris Vallejo and his wife Julie Bell..very nice art indeed. Now i remember, they are called Sinister Observations special card series. And the Suspended Animation cards is like those Cell cards. And they were once inserted in some 90s X-Men action figurines produced by ToyBiz.

The 9-card foil set you have is the 94 Fleer series. Forms a huge danger room picture with the X-Men gold and blue team striking to the audience. (I will post pic of it too later)

My X-Men cards were RM 2.50 back in 1992 when I got them from local comic book shop. Then I gave them all to friends at school. Now I want to rekindle with my childhood passion and Jim Lee art again.

Here are some pics of the cards.

There's like 11 pages of stand alone comic ,a Q & A page based on the comic ,a cool 3D cardboard greeting card (requires the glasses ,duh) ,a full page X-Men / Avengers poster , bio on Iron Man ,some facts about Thor ,some spot the difference ,Q & A stuff and a cool Vehicle Spotlight section with this issue's focus on the X-Men's Blackbird . thumbup.gif Total of 32 pages .

I think the second issue will be cheaper ,probably around RM9 .
Next issue comic features IM vs. Firebrand plus paper models of IM and Wolvie .

I spotted Issue 3 at 7-11 store (I found it at opposite Kelana Jaya LRT) outlet last night. The cover featured Spidey vs Vulture...drawn by J scott Campbell. Also comes with some freebies and angpows.

And comes with Spidey vs Sandman cutout picture stand. icon_rolleyes.gif

That's the Spider-Man mag .
It's nice that both mags include some freebies but I would rather trade the freebies for more content pages .
