Epilogue – Week of September 25th


A Dark Emperor auction will be coming soon. I also think this might bump DE down to a Beta rating. What do you guys think?
Key phrase, “…at this point…”
My oldest would flipout, in the best way, if he saw me in this.
90 figures plus two Class A figures – but steep shipping from Australia.
Five lots of figures all starting at $0.99.
How long did that sit in the sun? Jesus.
35 Flesh figures for $0.99.
Always like a $0.99 auction.
Seems like a nice ring with the box.
Or you could pick-up this one for $45.
Or this one for $50.
41 rare figures.
I like starting my auctions with 666 ($6.66), but this is funny too.
112 Flesh figures.
Great chance to overpay on something that is a bath toy in our house.
Nice cheap lot.
Looking for 10 awesome, rare figures? Read!
I think the mini Man-At-Arms makes this a decent lot.
$99 – is he crazy? Half that, tops!
– This seller has three MUSCLEMANIA figures: Green #4, Yellow #7, and Light Blue #10.
– This seller has two MUSCLEMANIA figures: Light Blue #1 and Red #9.
– This seller has $20 BIN’s for four Kinnikuman parts: Part 5, Part 6, Part 7, and Part 9. Seems pretty good to me – very tempted by Part 9.
Based on the above Kinnikuman kinkesi prices this seems high. Anyone has some insight for me?
Awful screen name, but might have some stuff people like.
Did you vote for the 1st Frankenstein-like Amalgam figure name?
There is still time to submit names for the other Frankenstein-like Amalgam figures.
For $20, this is a great set of Avengers figures.
Good place to keep track of SolarColorDust.com promotions.
Not a M.U.S.C.L.E. figure, but a very cool contemporary cousin.
This was going to be the Picture of the Week. But then I though about how this ruined his chance of ever getting sex. (no need for “again”)

This might not be cool to admit within the confines of nerdom, but I didn’t really know much about Jean Claude Van Damn’s involvement with the movie Predator. I knew that he was supposed to wear the suit, but ended up not doing it. So after I saw the picture below on Ain’t It Cool News, I had to do a little more digging.

Picture From: Ain't It Cool News

This video is what turned up. I thought it was awesome. Not only into the insight regarding JCVD, but in terms of the Predator design, and the important of the word “no” in film making. Even if a film maker isn’t surrounded by yes-men, CGI seems to be the default solution.

    Question about Dark Emperor should be down grade to a Beta? I say yes. Simply becuase theres more than one now to be classified as alpha. Same as the Drunken Master.

    That video on the predator was very cool. I remember reading about it years ago in a Fangoria Magazine.
