I think the Mr.Fantastic/Moleman variant pack has white highlights on the costume of Reed instead of black.

Hello there, its been a long time since I've been around so I just wanted to say that I'm back and should be able to check in with some regularity. If anyone even noticed I wasn't around. But I was super busy with work, someone should have told me that TRU is crazy busy in the months before Christmas! Oh the overtime hours!  ::) ;D

I think Xorn was Magneto with amnesia or something like that. But was part of the new Xmen team I think as well. I don't like those figures, they look too cartoony. :( Not like we'll be able to get them here in Canada anyway.

Can you post the email or whatever from Grand? I'm (a little) suprised and (a lot) disappointed if they are not going to continue carrying Marvel Legends? Is it officially official that Canada is now screwed on ML just like GI Joe?

Yearly CanJoeCon Discussion / Joe Meet 2007 Information (Early Planning)
« on: October 12, 2006, 11:35:03 AM »
Can I voice my opinion even though I haven't been to a meet yet, or any of these places? Well I'm going to anyway.

I think you should stick with the small place, save the money if you can for prizes or something. Are you really expecting 100 or more people to show up? Sure it would be nice but maybe not realistic. If you do get a ton of people and your in a small space, worst comes to worst, Raptor can take turns sitting on people's laps.  :shifty:  :shock:

As far as toy news goes, it is pretty old since these have been showcased at Toyfare NY, and the comic conventions, as well as a special Philly preview.

The story from Jakks was that they wanted to include this as an acessory but it wasn't possible because of cost issues so they made it a seperate figure altogether to get it in the hands of fans they knew would like it.  Weird? Yes, but I got to tip my hat to Jakks for thinking outside the box and being loyal to the fans.  Any other toy company and The Meat would have been dropped from the assortment very quickly.


I was asking more along the lines if they were new as in on the retail shelves. I'm sure the figures were shown at Toyfair and stuff, but I'm waiting for some over-protective mom to see this and make a big deal about it. Like the Austin Powers Fat Bastard figure and the Al Snow figure that came with the manaquin (sp?) head that some parent thought was a real severed head.

Off Topic / The Meat

TRU has just starting carrying a 6inch scale of figures based on the Rocky I movie. They are made by Jakks. As they were put on the shelf, I started looking at them, and each figure in the case was different, so I looked at the back to see which figures they had made. One picture in the lineup was definitely not a regular figure. It is The Meat. From when Rocky is training in the meat freezer against the frozen animal carcass, they decided to make The Meat. It is simply one of the strangest things I have ever seen from a toy line. So I bought it, I'm guessing they will be recalled since they are not appropriate for a kids toy. Its gross and funny all at the same time.

Not a picture of mine but that is what it looks like.

Has anyone seen this before? Is this new? Or is this old and I'm the last one to see it?

Mike, glad you enjoyed your trip. I had a good time, however short, with you and Denise.

But to counterpoint what he said about me:

1) You ruined any chance I may have had with the waitress when you brought up Zombie Johnny Cash vs Zombie Vincent Price with her.  :x

2) I cleared up my late fees with Adult Source.  :shifty:

3) Yes I'm going to have to really look at coming out to the next Joecanuck meet. Just need some dates to work with....

Why does Raptor look so suspicious in every picture?
