  1. I'll be "that guy"

     

    I stopped reading Chew pretty early on - I'm assuming it's from the book - so - what's a Chog?

     

    And what exactly is that figurine/model/Toy?

     

    It's obviously very cool judging by the comments - can anyone fill in the blanks?

     

    Thanks!

     

    Ask your good friend Google, he knows!

     

    CHOGS!

     

    Thanks for that - I guess I need to read Chew!

    They are called Frickens or Chogs; pormanteau words made from the words Frog + Chicken or Chicken + Frog.

     

    Early on in the book, it is revealed that Ray Jack Montero had been changing Frog DNA to make them taste (and look) more like chickens, creating a creature called Frickens, or Chogs and packaging their meat and calling it Poult-Free, a chicken substitute.

    :takeit: Option 3! Thanks! Getting my offering together :fear:

     

    ^^ Excellent choice! PM me your address, please. :applause:

  4. I wonder how CGC will score some of the idiosyncrasies with Five Ghosts. For example. #1 ECCC unsigned/unnumbered variant is much harder to get than one that is signed and numbered.

     

    They prob will have the SS scored higher, than we will have to add it to the "Hey These Scores Need Fixing" thread.

     

    Actually, at least in the Census, there isn't much difference between the Blues and Yellows.

     

    Blue 9.9 - 1

    Blue 9.8 - 16

     

    Yellow 9.9 - 0

    Yellow 9.8 - 20

     

     

    Some of the blues have "number" written on the label, but there are also some blues that were not numbered. I don't think there was any differentiation made by CGC. I wonder which there are more of...

    If you guys haven't noticed I love me some Bats and especially the Joker and I think it's time to add some oldies Batman books to my collection, so :takeit:

     

    Will post my offer later today, after I awake from round two of slumber... lol

     

     

  8. EB’s RAK :hehe:

     

    Free to the next boardie who hasn’t already claimed or received any other freebie(s) in this thread. I’ll cover postage in the CONUS and the first $10 for International.

     

    If they’re unclaimed after 48 hours, then anyone can have at ‘em. These are big books that will make for good summer reading… I'll prob also throw in some other X-related books. :grin:

     

    X-MenEssentials_zps3631b8f8.jpg

     

    :takeit: if I'm eligible. Two days short of three months but I don't know if that applies to RAKs.

     

    ^^ PM me your address! (Thumbs u

  10. What's the rule about taking an offer but only wanting part of it? Using the current offer as an example; taking the current offer but only wanting the bat or the donation? Could the ASM 90 be a RAK and then I post my offer? Just wanted some clarification.

     

    I'd take the offer and after I receive it I'd offer up what I'm not interested in as a RAK!

     

     

    :gossip: Or sell it on ebay...

     

    :kidaround::jokealert:

     

  11. I wonder if he's doing one set per person.

     

     

    because the way some are acting, like dope fiends lol , it might be worth standing in line and buying all the sets and flipping them x 3-4 cost to y'all.

     

    :baiting: Wanting 1 set of a limited 50 hardly qualifies someone as a dope fiend. Get me a NM/M set!

  12. I am NOT going to be able to make it to SDCC this year is there any way i would be able to get one of the new SDCC sets?

     

    Find someone who is going, figure out what it will take to get them to wait in Frank's line to get one for you.

     

    Or eBay

     

    This!

     

    Plus... Who's going to SDCC and what'll it take to to get you to wait in Frank's line to get one for me???
