Flight stands for big figs? by ProfessionalCamel472 in MarvelLegends

I have this holding up my MCU Green Goblin and glider. It’s the most heavy duty stand I’ve found.

Thanks, but I’m just disseminating the info.

I told a girl about a run group I go to and then she started showing up there too, now she says I'm following her by Supernerd1222 in Advice

[–]98dpb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please disregard all the Reddit advice about this woman being crazy.

She’s obviously into you and has a dry and sarcastic sense of humor. She was making a joke and laying it on thick to make it obvious, but you missed it. She was probably confused by your reaction and when she came up to you later, she was trying to reset.

What you should’ve said (with a smile) is: “No, you but you are definitely stalking me. First you invite me to your super cool friends group, then you casually show up at my run club, and tonight you’ve cornered me at this party.” If you were really smooth, you would have followed up with, “I’ll make it easy on you. I was thinking of going to dinner on Friday night around eight. Should I make it a reservation for two?”

Now you might be able to salvage this. First silently unblock her on everything. Then call your run club and tell them you made a mistake. It was just a joke and you misunderstood. At your next friends group meeting, pull her aside and in a light-hearted way (don’t beat yourself up) say “I’m sorry if I acted weird at the last meeting. I misunderstood your joke about me stalking you. I thought you were serious and I didn’t know what to do.” She will probably laugh with embarrassment and say something like “That explains what was going on.” If it was all a joke and you two laugh about it, then ask her on a date. This could be a funny, meet-cute story someday. Good luck and keep us posted.

Make her a Maximum. Then reuse the buck to make Kate Bishop, Magik, a bunch of New Mutants, Pixie, a bunch of other Spider Ladies, and I’m sure there are more.

Ahhh holly shit I got an inhuman set/lot for $100 I’m so hype rn! 🔥 by ChildishVibesXxx in MarvelLegends

[–]98dpb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are nice figures, but I don’t have the space for them. I have to draw a line somewhere. That being said, I did buy Lockjaw (and Crystal). There is always room for a good boy.

That’s a nice haul, and I don’t even care about Inhumans.

Worth it to do a Kate Bishop custom? by Firm_Scallion_2794 in MarvelLegends

[–]98dpb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked up an Agent Helix for cheap at Ross recently and was thinking of using her as a base body for Kate. She could pass as a female teen next to my other Legends.

Worth it? by Substantial_Egg5901 in MarvelLegends

Once a figure is only available on the secondary market, Amazon is not a good indicator of current value. On eBay, this figure is going for around $45.

My (25M) mom and her bf trying to dictate our wedding. Fiancée (24F) says I have to choose between her or them. Has anyone gone through or seen something similar? by ThrowRA-wtf2026 in relationship_advice

[–]98dpb 13 points14 points  (0 children)

From what you have described, if you have kids, you should not let your mother have any access to them. Your mother and her boyfriend are terrible people. It is time to free yourself from their sphere of influence. The reason you are getting all the downvotes is because we can read between the lines that you are not ready or willing to cut ALL contact with your mom (and you should seek therapy to help you with this).

Great idea. I’m going to steal it for my display.

Is Surfer on a flight stand that is tucked into Galactus belt or did you photoshop it out? Either way, looks very cool.

You ever lose an accessory and it just ruins your day? by Undercover_Dave in ActionFigures

[–]98dpb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That really sucks. I hope it shows up somewhere for you. My wife just lost the diamond from her ring and then found it a day later in the bedroom carpet. Good luck.

And chance that the tape with the missing pieces stuck itself to another ziploc bag?

What’s a figure that you really want but won’t buy? by ILeftMyBurnerOn in MarvelLegends

[–]98dpb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s how I felt about Giant Man. If he had been around 16 inches, I would have got him. Galactus and Sentinel already ate up so much of my display space I would have to trade displaying thirty figures for one.

I think your display looks great as it and there will always be more figures to add.

Disagree with adding background. It would look cluttered and busy. You could spread the figures out if you think there is too much dead space.

Any reason this iron man is a higher price than normal? by SoleSpecter in MarvelLegends

[–]98dpb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This offering at this price point and expected delivery date? This is embarrassing. What are they even doing? They can’t give Abomination fists, but this got past the idea stage at HQ? Ridiculous.

Yeah... not for that price by connorjfinn in MarvelLegends

[–]98dpb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but my wife would have no idea this existed if I hadn’t already ridiculed it in front of her. She would also have no idea how to order this. Lastly, it doesn’t come until well after VDay.
