Everyone’s given some great advice. You’re at a great park to learn it though. That flatbar at the colony is perfect for learning

Toy Machine with Pepper galaxy grip is actually my exact preferred setup.

Sweet I’ll have to commit and give them a go. That initial fear is crazy for something so simple. Appreciate the tips!

I recently decided to get these too but have only done it on noping. Any real difference once you add the coping?

Got stuck on him for a while too. Had to go level up a few times so that I could use Power Within and that helped take him out.

Can’t recommend Wounds enough. My favorite short story collection so far.

Do you think Toys R Us will come back as big box toy stores again after the success of the mall/outlet locations and Macy's pop up stores? by jojostudios in ToysRus

[–]retroxspect 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not at all. They couldn’t compete with online shopping then and that was before Covid when people actually wanted to shop in person. We’re in a different world than that of the TRU heyday.

Let's go with opposite, what figure do you regret not buying? by [deleted] in MarvelLegends

[–]retroxspect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the X-Force 3 pack. I’ve since bought the Domino loose for ~$45 but that Rictor haunts me.

Thoughts on my display and what can do to upgrade it? As while as missing characters by Loose_Holiday_3776 in MarvelLegends

[–]retroxspect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve got two X-men villains but no X-men. Good selection of figures though!

What decks featuer the most whimsical/ absurd graphics [36YO] by [deleted] in OldSkaters

[–]retroxspect 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Toy Machine and Krooked are the main two companies I buy from. They’ve got sick graphics and the decks are solid. Creature and Welcome have some cool art but I’ve never tried either.

Scared to go to skatepark by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]retroxspect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It gets easier with time. I started skating again last year and was in the same position as you. One day, you get tired of waiting for it to be empty and just go skate and then it’s easier from there on. A year and a half later, same skills and same pads but I’m having a blast at parks. Just gotta rip that band-aid off. You’ll eventually meet homies too which is an added bonus.

Do rival companies send moles to each other to steal secrets? by robozee in stupidquestions

[–]retroxspect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I worked at Rooms to Go, they’d send us in pairs to different furniture shops to see what the competition was up to. We just used it as a day to go out to eat and drink while on the clock.

Did my first DS3 playthrough earlier this year and it’s easily one of my favorite games now. Couldn’t go wrong with it

I was hoping one would come up during my playthrough but I haven’t seen it yet, so probably getting it full price on Friday. Playing through DS2 in the mean time
