I have updated the pictures of my collection in the Main Display Room. It has been long over-due since many New Things have been added since the last time. It takes me awhile to go through this process because every single one of them has to be dusted, rearranged and it takes multiple attempts at finding the right angles for lighting. After you take a look come back here and post a comment to let me know what you think. I will be putting up some new shots of the Sci-Fi Display Room in the next couple of weeks, (and things have really expanded in there!) so stay tuned…
Love the collection, and the time you spend on it. I keep most of mine in 10 gallon fish tanks stacked on each other to eliminate the dusting. I just posted some fresh pics of some of my collection on the Action Figure Network. I'm John, one of your friends on AFN, by the way, if you get a chance to check it out. Thanks.
I just recently got back on AFN myself. I collect Marvel Legends, Marvel Universe, some DC Direct, and DC Universe. One of these days I need to re-organize my collection, as the DC Universe is really spread out here and there.
I must have missed the DCUC. I've been teasing my wife about needing more space for the collection, but at the rate things are coming out lately, I'm going to need a house just for my collection. 20 bookcases and things are getting tight. I'm just hoping that next year Hasbro will put some more emphasis back into Marvel Legends. The second series of two-packs were pretty well done and left me wanting more.
I am already looking forward to the next wave of 2 packs from Marvel Legends, but it seems like such a long time between releases. Ah, Toy Biz, why have you forsaken me?
The Series 2 two-packs seem to be doing really well at all of the TRU’s I go to. I’m starting to see the Skrull/Kree left on the shelves, but the other two go fast. Are you doing any army building with these? I have 3 Fury/Hand, 2 Iron Man/Maria Hill and 2 Skrull/Kree so far. I think I’m going to wait for the release of the variants before I buy any more though. It’s a shame that we are going to have such a long wait for Series 3 of the two-packs. I can’t wait to see who they pair up with the Fan’s Choice picks.
I picked up a Dum Dum Dugan variant from overseas a couple weeks ago, but it cost me $29.00 with shipping, so I will wait for the rest to be released in the US. So far I have 6 members of Shield (used a Clint Barton head for one), 2 Hand Ninjas, about 7 Skrulls (2 from 2 packs, 5 from various old releases +the Elektra makes 8, I guess), 2 Kree Soldiers, and 5 members of Hydra (3 closed mouth, 2 open). I have some small armies starting.
If the variants are already available overseas, then I suppose they will be released after all! That’s good news. I was wondering if they would even be released. Hopefully, it won’t be too long before they start to show up here. (I can wait a little while though, I’m still trying to recuperate from DCUC 8 and 9, several ML 2 Packs, Marvel Universe 5, and now Gigantic Battles and Secret Wars Series 2 are starting to show up.) I want to build some armies with these 2 packs and Marvel Universe, but I have so many lines that I collect, I don’t think I can go to far with army building and keep up with new releases too. Did you army build with Parademons? I still have yet to see those at retail. I had to get both of mine from BigBadToyStore.

Believe me I feel your pain. I have been selling off some stuff I no longer collect to buy some of the new stuff coming out. As far as the Parademons, I only have one of each. Bought both at TRU online, at different times, still looking for the Blue and Yellow DR fate. I cannot wait for the Gigantic Battles sets, especially the Iron Man/Goliath set. In the Marvel Universe line I also picked up 2 Shield troopers, 2 Hydra, 2 White Hand Ninja, 5 Red Hand Ninja, as well as the Fury exclusive with the subscription.
I'm still considering the Fury exclusive. The completest part of me wants it, but I doubt I'll use the on-line comic subscription enough to justify buying it. Are you getting your money's worth from the subscription? I'm only missing the variant modern Dr. Fate from DCUC 8. I read that they are going to re-release him with the corrected gloves and cape later, so I'm holding off for awhile. I'm still missing Robot Mantis and black costume Wildcat from Wave 9. Did you get the Wonders Twins? I can't bring myself to pay $100.00 for a Gleek on E-Bay, so that's made me care less about being complete with DCUC.
I only signed up for a 3 month subscription, just to get the Fury. It was okay but I have since cancelled it. I try to be as complete as my wallet will allow, but there are still some I can't justify paying that much for. I did get Zan, the Eagle and the bucket of water for $14.00, but that's as far as I got. Maybe the rest later. I am waiting on half my order of DCUC wave 9, it's on pre order status. I did pick up Marvel Universe Wave 5 this morning, and the Iron Fist variant. Still looking for the Gigantic Battles.
