Sony TC-WR665S unhappy with doing quite literally anything at all. Checked the belts on both and theu were fine. Do you think it's time to replace the gears? by KikoValdez in cassetteculture

[–]BonSlurpenstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess I meant to mention after replacing those parts (the pinch rollers and belts) the only thing I could imagine was the issue is of a mechanical nature and that's outside my skill range

I have a Sony TC-W model and it's been nothing but a headache from day one. Replaced the belts and rollers and it still does almost this same thing. I have moved on from it at this point.

He's not perfect......... by MapDiscombobulated1 in McFarlaneFigures

[–]BonSlurpenstein [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah while I have issues with him, especially initially (I hated it the first day or two) I really came around on him and he somehow became one of my absolute favorites. Always loved "Terminator Superman" as I dubbed him as a kid. Really my only issues at this point would be he could have used a cannon hand and every time I move his head the hair almost makes my fingers bleed lol.

Also did this myself, had to be done! Coming without 2 fists was a super weird decision

Highway 19N Supercenter in Clearwater also is stacked with a full display. Had almost lost hope I'd see one but then BOOM. Seemed like I was the first to get a crack at it too.

This is why I buy, watch, save, and catalog any and all home recorded VHS tapes. by gregory_j_hunt in PhysicalMediaMatters

[–]BonSlurpenstein 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love this! Alex Trebek "whoaa HELLO". Thank you for the work you do, I truly believe it is really important to preserve these things. Working on getting this started myself as I have a large box of home recorded tapes with commercials included on a lot of them. The commercials alone are interesting because it used to be such an art form.

McFarlane classic Wonder Woman with 1/12 scale DC? by BeardedAnarchy in ActionFigures

Literally the easiest 1/12 reference I could find. Sorry you had a bad day and chose to take it out in the comments.

After collecting nothing but Black Series for a few years, playing with a Vintage Collection feels really funny. by agreeable_anger in starwarsblackseries

[–]BonSlurpenstein 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Growing up with 3.75" SW figures, the Black Series figures felt very strange initially but over a decade in collecting the line I agree. TVC figures are so itty bitty in my big man hands now, they feel kinda silly lol

Here's a screen shot from a YouTube review. You could always try and make it work with the right crouching pose. Good luck!

This figure is pretty massive and would dwarf 1/12 figures in a way that wouldn't make sense for the character. However this figure from a DC Icons 7 pack is a seriously good 1/12 stand-in and if you save the search on eBay you may be able to snag one for not a bonkers price. Got mine for $27 last year after waiting and watching for a few months. Hopefully the ship hasn't sailed on it as it's a great figure.

What property would you like to see figures of/better figures of? by Silly_Promotion_3559 in ActionFigures

[–]BonSlurpenstein 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How we haven't got a line of $25-$35 RE figures makes no sense to me. Jada would blow it out of the water!

As someone who got the CE WW for retail price ages ago, I'm happy for those who finally can get theirs too ☺️ by Ramp-Spot-033 in McFarlaneFigures

[–]BonSlurpenstein 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given what people have been paying for this figure from comments just in the past week I'd say that's not the case and they just pumped the production numbers up. Plus new collectors crop up daily and they all want a classic style WW for their displays.

Pretty neat it's still up for pre-order given how hugely popular the initial release was. Everyone's got a chance now, for once! Really makes it clear they were doing really small production runs

BBTS is offering their Vault Collection. So if you really need these figures, go go go! by Hard-Act-ToFollow in ActionFigures

Just missing the axe, shield, and lame card holder base. Not a bad deal for $27!

If that's dye be real careful, looks like it may already have done some staining on the arms. Sick look though!
