  1. My review of Sideshow pieces is the exact opposite. Every piece I own from them is awesome.

     

    I own several

     

    Iron Man Mark 3 Life Size Bust

    Ultron Maquette

    Ultron Sitting Premium Format

    Captain America Premium Format

    Iron Man Mark 1

    Iron Man Mark 43

     

    Each statue is killer and beautiful. I also own pieces from XM, Hot Toys, Bowen, etc.

     

    I'm not denying that people have had issues with Sideshow statues but I'm just not one of them. I've been lucky it seems. (fingers crossed)

  2. What do you guys think about the prices on Showcase recently?

     

    There are a couple of very high recent sales with the 3.0 at 11k being the big jump for lower grade books. However, I don't see that as proof that a 3.0 is worth 11k again...its just one sale.

     

    What do you think a 2.0 would be worth?

     

    Thanks

  3. Just finished the series. I can see why the critics like it - it has a strong female lead and isn't as formulaic as the other series in the genres (no villain/monster of the week, for example).

     

    I think it was all right. Balancing everything out, I'd give it a B+. Given that there was really only one villain and one storyline, I felt like this could easily have been wrapped up in 6 episodes, 8 episodes tops, though. A lot of the middle episodes just seemed to blend together, and Kilgrave's powers just seemed to get boring and repetitious with each passing episode. Really wish they had wrapped up his story in the first half of the season and moved on to something else for the back half. Or, threw in some villain-of-the-week material in-between to better space it out.

     

    Aside from his exploits in the bedroom, this version of Luke Cage's super power isn't just unbreakable skin, it's his ability to bore the audience to death. zzz

     

    I thought the Daredevil series (an A in my book) was much better - better characters, beautifully choreographed fight scenes, less annoying supporting cast, and much stronger source material to work with. 2c

     

    I watched one episode and much of what you said here is why it is unlikely I will invest another 11 to 12 hours to finish it anytime soon...if at all.

     

    It's worth watching when you have time but I wouldn't rush to watch it over other things

  4. This show keeps producing! What an amazing mid-season finale (can't say much for the WD's mid-finale :( ). I am looking at characters good and bad in a whole new way.

     

     

    They screw up a little though. In the beginning of last nights episode, when Alfred is running from the bad guys in the dump, you can clearly see there's no damage to his jacket. There's no blood or a tear or anything, just a brand new coat. lol

     

     

    But all in all a great mid-finale

     

    I totally agree bro

  5. After seeing how horrible Luke Cage was portrayed in my opinion on Jessica Jones I know have no faith any future productions evolving Mike Randal Colter as Luke Cage.

     

    I would have rather seen Dave Chappelle at Luke Cage:

     

    So interesting how we all can see things so differently since I thought he did a great job as Luke in Jessica Jones.

     

    I agree. I liked Luke Cage on the show. They missed some opportunities with him but his introduction was good
