    I know right? I was able to secure my preorders from them after about an hour of waiting. So I'm just going to cancel my preorder with bombusbee later on today

    But how far around can you swivel your waist? That’s all that matters.

    Come to U*ah where when it’s 90° we say “whew, finally a break from the heat”

    I’m trying to watch a movie while laying on a couch with the brace on and no matter how I prop my leg - flat, on a pillow, etc - it still is uncomfortable.

    0/10 articulation. I do not buy figures that don’t have an ab crunch.

    That's what I'm talking about! Except here in Phoenix make that 100 for a break! When we get those times of year where it's closer to 120 during the day and doesn't get below 110 at night, it sucks! No moving air and when it does it feels like a heat gun blasting your skin. Add any amount of humidity to that and it gets bad!

    Lol nope. At 90, I’m still inside, refusing to go out. Thankfully due to Covid, I can now pay a tiny amount more and have peons bring groceries, restaurant food, and almost anything else direct to my door. Leaving for work and to come home are the only times I am outside above 85.

    I’m usually still inside at that that heat too, in my nice, cool, air conditioned basement. I want to go out hiking but it’s just… miserable.. no thanks.

    Yeah, I put my pre-orders in through tfsexpress after waiting for an hour and a half because the savings are fairly significant compared to American e-tailers. I cancelled my pre-order with tfsource already.

    The lack of advance notice on some of these pre-orders is getting somewhat frustrating - I'd have been in for those cassettes, mainly for the Lazerbeak.

    Lol, look at our forecast here in Vegas for the next week.

    And I work in a profession where I frequently have to drive around in that in a suit.

    It sucks but you learn to tolerate it. For me, I spend most of June through September daydreaming about November and December weather.

    Maybe we can program a bot to respond to any post with the words "Sold out" with links to Bombusbee.

    Has there ever been a response like "Got one thanks!" Cause I've only ever seen "Is this place reliable?" and then dead silence until the next "Sold out already?! Eat my ass Fans Toys!" And the cycle begins anew.

    Show.Z still has the tapes available. Look further than just the usual suspects and there are plenty of sources where you can get the figures you want.

    Even as someone who loves Showz and recommends them to everyone.... don’t use them for the tapes unless you have to. It’s a $50 deposit...

    Do you plan on combining the preorders to get discounted shipping? I was thinking of doing that but I don't know yet.
