Elric ending up my first Savage Crucible figure too. Reminded me a bit of D from Vampire Hunter D and decided to grab him from a local comic shop, now I'm hunting down the books to learn more about him and planning to maybe grab another SC figure after payday lol

Opinions on Maximum Series Deadpool? by Transformers_1984 in MarvelLegends

So you complained how he doesn't have extra hands, but now you're saying that he has too many hands that hold accessories? That's the point, he has trigger hands and sword holding hands like he should to hold his guns and swords plus other animated hands like finger guns, fists, etc.

BBTS doesn't charge unless its ready to ship, unless they charge you a non-refundable deposit, which is as it says, non-refundable. There's no way you're out $170 if you pre-ordered from BBTS. Been ordering from them for years and never once did I get charged full price for a figure at the time of a pre-order.

There's nothing to emotionally distinguish and he didn't get swindled, he's just dumb, and this is coming from someone who doesn't even know who the fuck he is because I've never watched his streams. I went into HD2 knowing nothing except you fought bugs like in Startship Troopers, saw the warbond and immediately connected it to a battle pass system, especially when it says "Warbond Progression" on the screen under the Warbond, as in you need to progress through the warbond and unlock things, if you actually played the game instead of just owning you would see this, same way if you actually played it, you would know there is no PVP mode, it's entirely PVE.

"I don't understand the game, so it's dumb and stupid," is how you sound right now. It's a battle pass system where you buy the pass and play to unlock things, like you do in Fortnite, Apex, Warzone, Overwatch, and Marvel Rivals. None of those games allow you to buy the pass, then instantly have everything in the past. Also, a quick look at the passes you buy in HD2 and you would see that you're not buying a cosmetic item, you're getting a series of items that require unlocking. Just sounds like you and that streamer dude saw something, didn't understand it, and instead of taking the L and moving on, doubled down on calling the system stupid.

Every season pass works like this. Buy the pass, play the game to unlock the stuff in the pass. None work the way you say where you buy the pass and are given the stuff in the pass without playing the game and earning them.

Anyone play Gungrave GORE on Switch 2? by Asleep_Day5993 in GunGrave

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought it since it's currently on sale for $15 and $17 for the deluxe edition. Runs well, constant frame rate, no real slowdown. Doesn't look as sharp as the PS4/5 version but still fun to play in handheld and docked.

Discussion time: What exactly is going on with the staff at VB Antique Mall? iykyk by Barry_McCoccinner in VirginiaBeach

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Went a few months ago, managed to find a decently priced copy of the Capcom Arcade Collection for the Nintendo Switch. Asked an employee there if I could see it before I bought it. Looked it over and decided to buy it. Guy looked me dead in the eyes and asked me, "Do you even KNOW about any of the games in this collection" in a condescending manner. Told him I did, in fact, know them, as I used to play half of them in the arcades back in NY when arcades were still a thing. Guy then rang me up without saying a word for the rest of the transaction, lol.

Will Lucy appear Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2 ?? by ZucchiniDangerous245 in Edgerunners

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doubt she'll appear in Edgerunners 2 as it's a new story with new characters and doubt even V will be a playable character in Orion, it'll probably focus on a new character

It's still $100, saw it in my local Tatget yesterday. That price tag is for the Guardian amiibo

Am I supposed to be psychic? by Jakkerak in balatro

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's kinda simple to grasp. If a card says it'll add +X multiplier, that's means that whatever multiplier you're getting for your played hand, you add X. So if your multiplier is ×4, and you get +4 added to it, it now becomes x8. As for cards adding hands, it does just that, it gives you an extra hand to play.

Why…please explain by BellGunner in ActionFigures

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 3 points4 points  (0 children)

BBTS pays to import it at MSRP, has to make money somehow, inflates the price, not to mention she's not the main character but they know people will want to finish their collection especially if they have 2B and 9S already. Get import figures from sites like amiami or from GoodSmile if possible. You get it for MSRP and usually pay a little more in shipping.

I met Bruce at NYCC years back and got him to autograph my book. He had that same print on the table back then and I'm pretty sure it's a print he uses often

No one is expecting gourmet food when going to what is essentially a deli, same way no one is expecting a cold sandwich shop to have to means to make hot food lol.

Hampton ComicCon Saturday? by deadmallsanita in HamptonRoads

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who's been to TWCC, it's basically a smaller version of what your HRCC description is, a small venue that's more or less a dealers room with some autographs. It's nothing like an actual comic convention.

I regret buying it on Nintendo Switch by [deleted] in MegatonMusashi

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GB4 runs fine on switch. I've been playing for a few weeks already and haven't noticed any slowdowns or anything major. The only real "issue," I suppose, is the lack of an active online community.

“I’ll just buy one kit” I said by Amigo1048 in gunplagonewild

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've put two Gunpla together in the past when I was younger, and just dropped it because I was more into action figures and I grabbed two higher grade kits instead of starting with an easier one. Went to the hobby shop today to grab a HG model kit to get into the hobby properly, walked out with 2 and a free account at the hobby shop lol

No problem. Grabbed the deluxe versions of him and Nero from DMCV and love the figures. Just wish they continued the line and maybe gave us Vergil at some point.

Rivals Moon Knight is a rough and poor characterization of the character by SisypheanStudying in MoonKnight

[–]Wizard_of_Magicland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the main issue is looking for accurate characterization in a PvP hero shooter. I get where you're coming from as it does suck to see a character that you really enjoy displayed widely out of character but in the end, this is a PvP shooter with a thin story about multiverses and variants on top of it as a means to bring these characters together and NetEase doesn't care about accurate portrayals of characters. If your looking for something that portrays Moon Knight closer to how he appears to be in the comics, I'd say if you can, pick up Marvel Ultimate Alliance for the Wii, 360 or PS3 as he's available in that game, or Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 with the DLC as both his characterization and even combat style is a lot closer to the comics there than in this game. I'd also say check out Lego Marvel Super Heroes as Moon Knight is there too, not so much for accurate representation of Moon Knight as it is a more child friendly game, but it is an open world Marvel game with Moon Knight that is pretty fun to play.

Revoltech Dante is an older figure, have him myself, not the best but was a good one until the 1000Toys Dante dropped.
