    It's a contest to see who gets me Jitsu first, my sister who found one and is notoriously bad at mailing me anything, and BBTS. So far they're neck and neck. :lol

    I couldn't wait so I shipped hit ship on my POL last Thursday, got shipping notification on Monday Jan 10th with estimated delivery date on Thursday 13th then it moved to 14th then to 17th :(  is moving painfully slow, I can't believe that in a span of 12 hours, my POL went from concord NC to charlotte NC o_O  I'm located all the way to Miami. I don't even know if it will be here by Monday 17th at that pace lol.

    Lol I bet that it will be a tie

    Aw. I opened up my new He-Man and one of the brackets for his shield was bent completely in right out of the pack. A lot of boiling water and gentle nudging got the bracket back into place but left big stressmarks that just don't want to shift. It's on the back of the shield so it's not visible, but I know it's there and that does still kinda irk my OCD.

    I have been told that you can make stress marks disappear…or at least subside…using a hair dryer. I have never tried it myself, though.

    Yeah, I have Buzz-Off and Mosquitor in my POL. They are clogging the pegs, now.

    what's the blue plane from?

    I want them to reissue figures from waves 1,2,3 so I can "catch up" without spending an arm.

    The winner is: Target, which had Jitsu, LOP Beast Man, and mini-comic Stratos. Grabbed the first two! I was going to skip that Beast Man but grabbed it on a whim since I currently have both versions of Mer-Man.

    The blue plane is a model kit of the Blue Angels F-18. I was big on aircraft models when I was a kid.

    I really want a King Grayskull for Origins and the whole play pattern of swapping parts makes things so much easier. But I need the Parts to make said character. I have been looking and waiting patiently and may have struck Eternium. Base body is He-man(Duh). The heads on the Masterverse figures from reviews have shown to be in some scale with the Origins bodies and have the same peg on the neck. Savage He-mans head seems to be as close as it comes until something else comes along. The armor I will just use my 200X He-Man Armor. It dose fit I posted a pic showing it pages back. Now for the cape. I do not know, maybe I might have to get the Masterverse King Grayskull(That I do not want) just for that cape. If I do get Mastervers King Grayskull I may as well pick up another Clamp Champ so I can attach one of King Grayskulls heads for a new character.

    Robot or human?
    Could try the cape from this ultimate warrior. It fits origins bodies.

    I considered it, but decided against using it for King Grayskull. Ultimate Warriors cape is better used for Vikor.
