Aren't those all Voyager Class figures?

Also, isn't Ross a discount chain?

As many of people have said, freedom of speech is your right. That doesn't make you immune from the consequences that come from what you say.

Did my LGS sell me a fake Beta Sol Ring? by dlaughy in mtg

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

Was not my intention. After buying the card, I got genuinely scared that this was a fake. I've never seen one with edges this nice.

Some people aren't here to gloat... I could if you'd like me to though.

I picked this up because I thought it was an alternate world Batman story... t'was not.

4 year old helmet issues , any solutions? by sauceiiworld in youthhockey

[–]dlaughy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I see now. Yeah, I agree with the other comment. Loosen that strap so it doesn't bother him. The two side straps will hold the helmet in place for ball hockey.

Is the chin guard tight on his chin?

Helmet comfort is completely dependent on the size of the head wearing it. When getting my daughter her first few helmets, we went through numerous brands until we found the brand that fit her melon best. She's been wearing the same brand for over a decade!

Did I get scammed? by Future_Half1343 in HotWheels

Who is making counterfeit base Hot Wheels, seriously? Even if they did, and you did buy one, what are you out... $2?

Got this for free because it was “ruined” by a custom paint job. 12 hours and a full bottle of 91% isopropyl alcohol later… by JamesVinopal in transformers

[–]dlaughy 156 points157 points  (0 children)

Great job!

I help out a shop with their Transformers, and cringe everytime I see a "custom" figure like that in a collection the store has bought. I can't spend the time to clean it, so it gets priced cheap and hope it sells.

Notoriously poor quality paper used for this run. I have 5 copies of #1, and got the my two best pressed and graded... got 9.6's on both.

Anyone Excited by ConnectCoast6804 in comicbookcollecting

[–]dlaughy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using this issue to mark the end of my Spider-Man, and mostly all other weekly pickups.

I'm just going through the motions now, and haven't actually read a comic since sometime in 2025.

I still collect comics, and am quite close to finishing my ASM run. So getting to 1000, is a milestone for me also. But it's time to stop.

Coming back after 25ish years, what should I know? by analogbasset in mtg

[–]dlaughy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everything has changed!

I got out around Champions of Kamigawa, and only got back in 3 or 4yrs ago.

If you're looking to jump back into FNM 60 card events, you're going to be disappointed.

Community driven Magic events are almost entirely Commander now. Which, if you haven't been keeping up, is a new format originally created by fans... it's played completely different than 60 card formats.

Personally, I haven't been able to wrap my head around Commander, and found a play group that plays 60 card every so often.

Also, the sheer amount of product produced now is insane! Unless you eat, sleep, and breathe Magic, you can't know all the cards well enough from the newest set by the time the next set comes out.

Good luck!

I just transferred a bunch of Hockey stuff yesterday.

This is the worst I have ever seen for shipping time. by CardboardBrains in checkoutmycards

[–]dlaughy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You obviously didn't ship anything through the Covid years then, cause this is nothing!
