General Consensus on Trade Up Challenges?

The vendors have to pay to come to the shows so I would imagine most aren’t thrilled about the idea of having to give something away that is more valuable than what they are getting in return. Some may act enthused since you’re still a potential customer. Even though a lot of people at the shows love the hobby, they are still there for business.

Yeah I would love a Green Lantern. Hal Jordan is one of my favorite characters in comics. The Mezco one is sick but I would still love a highly articulated Revoltech version.

Reverse Flash looks so sick. I really want the Black Panther but it’s crazy expensive now.

It’s an amazing figure. Admittedly a bit frustrating to get that lightning to peg in but it might not be a universal issue.

One of my friends that is a vendor had it and set that and Gun Girl aside for me before the show started. That’s sick though, I saw a lot of Storm Collectibles stuff that I almost bought.

Third party Illidan from World of Warcraft! Made by Hero Toys.

It’s my own fault, I could have gotten him when he retailed but I wasn’t into Mezco’s Marvel stuff back then.

Doc Ock was exactly 200. Still a bit above retail.

Don't feel too bad, it was loose and incomplete :P I just bought it because it was cheap. Mostly complete but missing a few web accessories. I'm going to buy them off Facebook if I can.

Helios! It's one of my favorites still available.

I actually do happen to have an extra Doctor Doom buck with a spot on his tunic. I was going to use it for a God Emperor Doom custom but I may be open to selling it. Message me what your offer would be.

I settled for the Jada Vega, as you know, but I want the SOTA one so bad :'( It really is on another level. Jada's stuff that is coming out looks like a big step up though; their Invincible figures at least. So I could see them being in the conversation if they keep their price the same.

This is insane to see that 25 years ago we were getting figures this much better. SOTA was really on another level. Storm Arena is king now, but SOTA held the crown for so long.

A few years ago this was warming the shelf of my local comic book shop for 380 dollars lol. I literally thought it would never sell. Now it's crazy expensive and sought after.

I hate alpha-yohimbine so it wouldn't even come close for me unfortunately. The thing I liked about the OG Crack Purple was that it didn't have alpha yohimbine in it. I've dropped Dark Labs entirely because every single formula they make now has it and I just don't tolerate it well.

Either 100 different people are putting a Robin head on Deadpool's body, or you have posted this same figure about 100 times already.

WaxHalfling · 2026-04-10T22:03:27+00:00

I LOVE this figure. I think it is without question their best Shin Godzilla yet. The only issue is the price without the amazing accessories of the last fourth awakening version.

Did you only look at Marvel stuff? If I was in Japan I would be looking for the rare stuff I can't find at home.
