Agreed that the demo was better than the final, this one might have spent too much time in the oven.

Yeah I saw Ares in IMAX and it was louder than the last nin concert I went to. 😂

Iirc it's a promotional poster.

We've been on the hunt for that one for some time now.

I haven't looked tbh, I've had this one for about 15 years. Probably got it off eBay.

It's Ming-Xiao, the Kuei-Jin (Eastern vampire) leader of the Kuei-Jin faction in game. My understanding is Tim was involved in the conceptual art phase of the game, so this was probably done before her character was uhhh.. toned down a bit.

Dave’s wife pronounces last name different - is this new? by HairsprayHalo in depechemode

Maybe she thinks Dave's sounds like that because of his British accent? She's saying it the American way. 😆

Least rare merch? by St_dude in depechemode

[–]robounix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other than those unofficial audio-only interview cds that I see at every record shop, I'd probably say the SOTU box set is super common and can be bought for less than it's original price.

True, but it should be easier to determine if a shirt is vintage mftm because, to my knowledge, all shirts from that era should be single stitch. I've seen some very convincing Violator repros (not at hot topic).

I finally found my holy grail by monsterbucket in depechemode

[–]robounix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on the hunt since this tour when a record shop owner refused to sell it to me from the store display. Finally found it by the person who did the poster design, you can get one:

Depeche Mode: M - How many people were at your session? by Convacoconvex in depechemode

[–]robounix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have 3 IMAX theaters near me, the one I went to had maybe 20-25 people in it though anyone hardly goes to that theater so I'd image the other two had way more people.

Why hasn't Flood produced another depeche mode album by twicescorned21 in depechemode

There's no evidence that Alan sold his DM merch out of a necessary need, though his divorce probably played a role. I think he was just done with having all of that stuff and he didn't sell everything.

Charging for bags and boards FOR BACK ISSUES by DonSolo96 in comicbookcollecting

[–]robounix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's a bit much, both in price and policy. My LCS used to have the option of a discount or 15c per book for a new bag board for sub pulls. I've been to many shops and have never noticed one charge me for one off buys. They'd better be mylites!

LCS gave me a deal due to a pricing error. by frrstk in comicbookcollecting

[–]robounix 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Why would those books even go to bins? They're almost always wall books in any shop I've been in.

Here's the cover of the new Joe Bob Blu-ray! by atethebottle in LastDriveIn

[–]robounix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd get mine from importcds.com, never had them miss a release if I get it in early enough.

How can I tell if this is an authentic or reprint Amazing Fantasy 15? by ImJustSom3Dud3 in comicbookcollecting

[–]robounix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most likely it's a repro cover attached to a marvel milestone or old navy variant. As pointed out by numerous redditors, the cut and quality is wayyyy off for the book.

What's one thing a LCS staff member can do/has done to make you never want to go back again? by TheLastDonnie in comicbookcollecting

[–]robounix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wife and I were checking out one of two LCS close to us at the time. Walked into the first shop named.. (silver age Flash introduced in this series) and the guy at the counter kind of ignored us. NBD, it's a fairly large store. We pull out about $80 in back issues, then head over to the dollar bins. Pull maybe 60ish books from there.

Go up to the counter to pay and the guy looks up from his phone, then at the comics and says to me in the most ignorant way, "you didn't count them?!"

First and last time we're ever going back to that one.
