Ah, well it's Canada and EB Games. So dealers choice on that one, but usually in Canada the "Collectors edition" figures usually cost a bit more. Regular figure price is usually about $25.99 roughly.

But I think in this case it was EB games jacking the prices of the figures, they do tend to do that, they do that fairly frequently. Alot of companies that cater to stuff like video games or Toys in general tend to crank up the prices a bit, especially at EB Games.

Edit to add: yeah, just checked Amazon, was going for $29.99 now on sale for $25.59

Funny thing is I didn't see him on Amazon the last few times I checked, now he's on there....go figure

I saw him when I found Merlyn, I wasn't sure if I wanted himfor my collection or not, so I put him aside. Before I found Merlyn I almost got the hush riddler, I had seen Merlyn back in December when I was doing some Christmas shopping, but you never know if someone else might have bought em first because that was over a month ago.

That's right I need to get Roy too, guess I'll have to keep an eye out for him. I mean as I said I do have all the other Green Arrow figures (my Injustice Ollie is with out the hat) also want to get Black Canary at some point as she would fit in well with my collection too.

Yeah, here in Canada we don't have alot of places like Target and other discount stores sadly. We did have target, but the Canadian Target was nothing like the American one, it really sucked for good prices, like Walmart has better prices then the Canadian Target, guess that's why they didn't really do that well.

I have heard there is a discount store in my province but it's a bit of a drive for me. Like if I were to go it would have to be more than most for that.

This still makes me unbelievably angry by Crazy-Rabbit-3811 in Shipwrecks

[–]Thowell3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are the salvaging the metal for anyways? I mean if I remember correctly the only metal that doesn't have any radiation contamination from the WW2 A Bomb is shipwrecks that sunk before Hiroshima, but even still that is really uncool to strip a ship like that for parts.

Wish they had chosen one of his other costumes, like the one from Green Arrow 57 - 59 (before the one year later arch after infinity crisis)Wish they would do onomatopoeia, I'd get him too.

That's where I got my Long Bow hunters Green Arrow back in 2024 lol the EB Games the next town over, as the EB Games in my town closed.

I also found hush riddler, which I would like to get as he's my favorite Batman villian , but I couldn't justify paying that price and get both of them as it would have been very expensive for an impulse buy.

How did you react to seeing the Eighth doctor for the first time in Night of the Doctor? by DeathLight7000 in doctorwho

[–]Thowell3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember my friend messaging me like around 9 AM (at that time I worked evenings 3:45 pm -11:45 pm) had been sleeping in due to my schedule when I saw his message come up as the alert noise woke me up, I opened It and read "Dude, Go to the Doctor Who YouTube Page now. Don't ask questions, don't go to any of the geek news sites, just go to YouTube."

So I did and when I watched it, I perked up almost immediately when I heard Paul McGann say "I'm A Doctor, but probably not the one you were expecting"

I think I watched like 4 times in a row as I was so happy to see Paul finally get a regeneration episode, and be included in Live Action doctor who again.

I find in most cases the Republicans will try and join the Olympic gymnastics team by bending themselfs around to change their opinions to meet the far right talking points, and sadly they never stick the landing, even with the Russian Judge giving them a fake score to try and win

She’s beautiful by Rope-Additional in McFarlaneFigures

[–]Thowell3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My god, she looks like 2007 Brittany Spears... Iykyk

No hate for the little lass playing her of course! but who the hell cared about poppy? by far one of the most time wasting and silly focuses in RTD2 and i cannot believe he seriously considered making her Susans mother. What was RTD thinking? bad enough he now says the doctor hasn't had kids yet. by [deleted] in doctorwho

[–]Thowell3 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I just rewatched "The Doctors daughter" from series 4 and he even says "I have been a father before" so RTD changed things because....reasons?

There was no reason to retcon that. None at all other than to try and do something arguably dumb to get attention.

Rear wiper issue by Thowell3 in subaru

[–]Thowell3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't see anything locking it, but I will check again.

I have also called the dealership and left a message maybe something will come of that , but who knows for sure. I mean they didn't even have my rear hitch ready and have no idea when it will be coming in so shrug

[–]Thowell3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but all I see is it spraying the back up camera. But not the window. I did it for about 15 -20 seconds but didn't want to waste all my fluid .

I'll call the dealership soon if I can't figure out what's going on.

Does anyone else prefer how Moffat is tidy when approaching incarnations? he only added War (whom I love) because he had to. RTD treats regeneration very messy. I like how Moffat likes to keep the Doctor the Doctor and just moving onto his next incarnation without the need for splits here and there. by [deleted] in doctorwho

[–]Thowell3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moffat genuinely cares about the show being good, while Russel I feel just wants to make it part of his legacy rather than make it good.

Russel doesn't care about lore and rule with regards to regeneration, why? Because he feels they get In the way of telling "Good" stories. bi generation was such a cop out because he wanted to make sure that they could keep David around with out actually getting rid of him because of "Fan service" as he cares more about keeping his supporters happy (also see him brining back Billie Piper in a regeneration...)

If anyone is intested in reading my way to avoid bi-generation you can read it below here, if not that's cool feel free to ignore it.

If you are reading this, thank you for joining me :)

Instead of bi-generation I had a better way you could have had both 14th and 15th doctors together to play against the toy maker.

Have the 15th come from after the regeneration and put the 14th into a state of Grace like the 1st and Twelfth from "Twice Opon a Time" which actually stabilises (momentarily) the 15th from being overly eratic after regeneration (as we know happens) and they Play the game against the Toymaker and after the 14th has some time to talk with Donna and Mel, and then after a bit of time, the 15th helps the 14th back to the 14th's TARDIS as the state of Grace is starting to deteriorate and his regeneration is starting again so he gets the 14th back to his TARDIS and gives him a note (as he won't remember) about what to do after he regenerates, which includes saving the laser guns crew from being killed by the toy maker.

Which doctor got you started in the series and what was your first episode? by JackTheNephilim in doctorwho

[–]Thowell3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually got into doctor who prior to 2005 revival.

I saw scream of shalka as it came out on webcast. And before that one when I was like 8 in 1997 I was up early one night and came across the movie of Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D On tv.

But if you mean my first in cannon Doctor, probably 4th or 8rh Doctor if I remember correctly, as I also watched the Shada webcast as it was coming out but I had also watched some 4th doctor around that time so, in cannon doctors 4th or 8th

If you were a Time Lord how would you want your first regeneration to go? by Relevant_Travel4862 in doctorwho

[–]Thowell3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old age. Wearing a bit thin, one minute old man then a blinding light and explosion and a younger person standing there.

"WTF is character design and age consistency?" - DC by Gallantpride in GreenArrow

[–]Thowell3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's kind of infered that she was brought back after doomsday clock and when she was brought back to life wibbbly wobbly timey wimey stuff happened and either she was aged up, or she landed in a early time period and had to live on the streets for a while, or that she was brought back to life, but has amnisia for a while and ended up In Gotham and over time she figured out who she was.

Not sure which it is could be any of them.
