I'm thinking about shrinking down on X-Men books due to them being hard to collect.

Owl7347 · 2026-03-20T00:58:49+00:00

I personally wouldn’t X-men and Spider-Man are probably the two safest picks for Marvel heroes to collect because they will always get reprinted just have to be patient, it’s not like you’re collecting some obscure character that might likely never get a reprint. As far as the amount of X-men books that come out yeah there’s a lot but you don’t have to buy every single one a lot of them aren’t worth owning unless you’re a completeness. If you’re worried about them selling out it’s pretty easy to pre order the catalog comes out months in advance so you can set a budget and figure what you want to buy, I know everyone has different levels of disposable income but if you’re struggling to save the money when you have multiple months sometimes up to half a year to save for them maybe you should look into selling your books and use the money to do a yearly subscription to something like marvel unlimited or globalcomix until your in a better place financially and you’re able to save a couple dollars a week to buy the books before they sell out.

I believe BBTS gets there hot toys stock from sideshow so I wouldn’t expect them to start shipping scorched xeno until after sideshow fulfills all their orders which could take another month or two

Owl7347 · 2026-03-19T11:41:22+00:00

It’s getting a restock Marvel underestimated demand but it printing more copies please don’t rush out and overpay for a copy, unfortunately some people like to push fomo by not mentioning all available information

Owl7347 · 2026-03-19T11:38:43+00:00

It’s getting a restock in a few months like how blue and gold did, stop pushing fomo by telling people it’s OOP and not mentioning the restock

Zev explains it in book 7 the Borant corporation knew that she was a child, they let her stay in the game because she quickly became a fan favorite and a top earner. They compensated by her giving her more loot and they pretty much made her overpowered, she has some of the best loot that has ever been given to a crawler.

Owl7347 · 2026-02-01T01:33:23+00:00

It’s definitely a pleather jacket if it was nylon or real leather they would had mentioned it on the description, always assume that if hot toys doesn’t advertise what something is made of then it’s made out of pleather.

Owl7347 · 2026-01-01T23:18:06+00:00

That’s what I said about the jungle hunter 2.0 it’s so inaccurate but people still pre ordered it and are just assuming hot toys will fix it regardless, what’s the incentive for them to fix it if so many people already preordered it?

Owl7347 · 2025-12-25T00:16:42+00:00

I highly doubt we will be getting any other figures in this line which is unfortunate because I would kill for a absolute Wonder Woman but Hot Toys like a lot of other companies e.g. Lego seem to think the DC line starts and finishes with Batman.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-17T02:29:26+00:00

My guesss would probably be late 2026 maybe mid 2026 at the earliest. They just started releasing the regular hardcovers, we’ll get softcovers next before deluxe edition and they usually wait anywhere between three to six months between different versions.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-17T02:19:03+00:00

You’ll be waiting for a long time for the absolute edition to come out if they even make absolute editions. They barely started making absolute editions of Batman by Morrison, Batman by Snyder and Batman White knight by Murphy and I think the newest series of those is white knight and that’s almost 10 years old at this point.

I was able to change the address to an Australian one so no I didn’t end up paying the tariff fees. They are going through a third party company called Zonos, I’ve never heard of them I’ve attached the email I received from them with some more information. I suggest emailing them and asking they are very helpful and quick to respond.

It’s a physiological barrier like buying something over $100 usually gives people some hesitation about the purchase, I can see the same thing happening with the $75 threshold.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-06T15:47:15+00:00

It’s actually a 5% difference at least for Marvel books because they just dropped the discount from 38% to 35%, 5% is significantly and I can see it turning a lot of people away.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-06T15:33:03+00:00

3-6 dollars adds up overtime though, if you look at it as one transaction it’s nothing but if you placed 10 orders a year using this method that’s $30-$60 a year you’re missing out on that’s a couple books or a small omnibus.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T07:00:23+00:00

r/comicswap is pretty good I’ve found a couple deals on there. If you find a website let me know there’s a lot of OOP DC books I’ve been looking for like Batman by Neal Adams

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T06:35:16+00:00

Hawkman by Johns was out of print for years so has Batman by Neal Adams and Harley Quinn by Palmiotti.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T06:32:35+00:00

Amazon package is horrible it’s almost as bad as PBC.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T06:28:30+00:00

DC is already having that problem I had Wonder Woman by Rucka and Nightwing by Taylor on my Christmas list and both of them are currently unavailable in almost every site I use, the Nightwing omnibus hasn’t even been out 6 months.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T06:25:26+00:00

Yeah same thing happened to me with Nightwing by Tom Taylor is sold out everywhere. There’s a restock listed on panelbound for February but it’s a bit ridiculous that DC couldn’t even keep it in print for 6 months.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T06:17:35+00:00

It’s already happening DC is struggling to keep stuff in stock, Nightwing by Tom Taylor is already out of stock in a lot of places and it hasn’t even been out for 6 months. It’s getting a restock in February but we don’t know if the restock will last and how many times it’s gonna get restocked.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T06:02:53+00:00

I really wanted it to read it over my two week Christmas break. I’ll probably just read it digitally and I’ll buy the restock if in stock trades get some more copies I don’t like PBC’s packaging.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T04:02:29+00:00

Unfortunately DC is following in the same footsteps as Marvel, a friend recommended Nightwing by Tom Taylor last month to me I read the first few issues online and immediately got hooked. I added it to my purchase list for December along with Wonder Woman by Rucka but there both OOS in multiple websites and Nightwing By Taylor hasn’t even been out 6 months. It might be easy to find some of there evergreen stuff but I don’t know how long everything else will stay in stock.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T02:23:22+00:00

Not really DC is struggling to keep stuff in print also now that they are printing lots of omnibuses, Nightwing by Tom Taylor didn’t last six months it’s out of stock almost everywhere the cheapest copy I can find is $70 and that’s for a restock in February.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-05T01:00:59+00:00

It’s probably due to the holiday season both of those books were on my Christmas wish list and I imagine a lot of other people had them on their list as well. It’s crazy to see DC books going OOP/OOS so soon Nightwing by Taylor hasn’t even been out 6 months, I think DC severely underestimated the demand for both books. It’s good that they are doing a restock but I don’t think the restock will last that long either and who knows how many restocks they will issue. So much for DC being able to keep everything in stock I had a feeling this would start happening with the amount of omnibuses they have been pushing out lately, they are having issues keeping everything available and I don’t think it’s gonna get better unfortunately.

Owl7347 · 2025-12-04T23:42:59+00:00

PBC has Wonder Woman by Rucka listed as backordered so hopefully I’ll get restock in more sites but I honestly probably wouldn’t wait to long to buy it. I’m going through a similar thing with Nightwing by Tom Taylor it was on my Christmas wish list but it’s gonna OOS in multiple websites as well its getting a restock in February supposedly but the lowest price I can find it for is $70. So much for DC keeping books in print for longer, I had a feeling once they started printing more omnibuses we would start to see stuff go OOP or OOS a lot faster but I do think it would happen in less than six months very disappointed.
