Can you take a pic of him w/o the hair or the helmet?
Sure. He comes with two hair pieces. One for the helmet to fit over and one for display without the helmet.

Here's a pic of the hair piece without the helmet:

Here he is without a hair piece at all (front and side profile).

There's a magnet on the back of his head that holds the hair pieces on. The other hair piece is just hair pulled back so as to allow the helmet to fit over his head. I'm displaying him without helmet (mainly because the helmet is thin plastic and easily breakable) and I put the other piece away or I'd take a snapshot of it for you. Though you can see it on the desk in the first set of pics I posted.

I thought i was fked because as soon as I set it up I ran over(with my chair) the Driving Force GT USB and bent the hell out of it but it still works (thank god) I know this setup should have a diff wheel I was about to pull the trigger on the Fanatec 911 GT w/ Clubsports but then I heard some Forza CSR wheels are coming out and I am going to wait for those.

Batman has a lot of really interesting stories. Depends on the era you're interested in. Grant Morrison is doing interesting things with the character but it's out there.

If you're into Superman, Red son is phenominal. Secret Origin is good as well. All Star Superman is the best work any one has done on Superman for the last 20-30 years. If anything, All Star Superman is in the same vein as Year One or The Dark Knight returns, in the sense that it takes the amazing characteristics of Superman and multiplies them. I can honestly say, in my opinion, there probable isn't a better Superman story out there.

Any of the green lantern trades starting with Green Lantern: Rebirth are awesome.

Kingdom Come is also a great graphic novel. So is New Frontier by Darwyn Cooke.

Give Hush a shot too. It's dense and over the top sometimes but Jim Lee's art is great.

I think I need one of these for my desk at work. Where are you guys getting them?

Thanks.

Yeah, don't buy directly form kidrobot. it's stupidly expensive and they are blind boxed so it's a crapshot getting one you may want. Let other people buy them retail and then they will sell them off cheap on ebay. Just look up kidrobot street fighter.

Some excellent pickups in here - I've loved these threads as a lurker and I'm building up a pretty great first addition to it including an awesome vinyl, a brilliant SNES game and some random awesomeness that I can hopefully post by the end of the month... ohgodsoexciting.

moop2000, where do you go thrifting?

I live in Los Angeles and there are no shortage of thrift stores. I maybe hit up over 100 in the various routes I've concocted over the past months. Living in such a sprawling metropolis means good stuff is to be found.

So the main attractions here are:
  • MacBook Pro - the mightier, awesomer 15" version with more processing power and Thunderbolt that is until now relatively useless, yet small and nifty.
  • PS3 BD Remote - the new, revised edition. Has added controls for TV, amplifier and a new form factor that makes it look more like the slim version of the PS3. It also weighs less and the Home button is plastic, not rubber like the old one.
  • Various movies in blu-ray format: Akira, Confessions, the European Kubrick Collection (inferior to the American one), Alien Anthology, Tron Legacy, Gundam Musou 3 (not a movie), In Bruges and Falling Down.

Sick, do triple screen work for the entire game or just Arcade mode like in GT 4.

Im hoping your answer is it doesnt that way im not tempted to get another 2 PS3 and 2 more copies of GT5

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Got some shit!

Because I'm a weeaboo and because vol. 5 is out soon (hopefully rightstuf will ship it out early), I picked up the first four volumes.... really hope I like Brohood.

Also, I wasn't serious about being a weeaboo. How do you know? Because I got some new sunglasses, and because I got all the equipment ready for making DEM GODDAMN RICE KRISPIE TREATS.

If you read the manga then you'll like it.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Going to that Kidrobot site redirects me to the EU version, where there appear to be none of the cool ones you guys are posting here.

Are these not available outside of the US? Cause that's pretty lame if it's the case.

Yeah, Kidrobot don't distribute them in Europe for various legal reasons, as far as I can tell. Ebay is your
dirty
friend.
 
Posted this in the wrong year... uggh.
Not many pick-ups this month due to bills and traveling to evo, but I managed.

Willing to trade. Would love me a Sagat or Dictator.

Hey Sylver,

Just curious, but where did you purchase your Saeko Busujima figure? I've been trying to looking but it is sold out everywhere except Ebay. -__-'
