    So I read an article on a leaked image today of Super 7's v2 Storm Shadow and I am shocked at the laziness and just no energy put into Super 7 version of v2 Storm Shadow.  Its horrible.  All they did was add stripes/camo to the first SS they did, no hood, no remodeling, no arm tattoo, nothing..  This is getting ridiculous.  Like do these companies not realize that SSv2 figure is one of the most popular of the SS figures.  Super 7 on the V1 Storm Shadow I thought was excellent and the thought and design of the extra features and weapons was very well done.  This figure is garbage and what a crappy year on releases of Storm Shadow V2.  Junk across the board.  I am so disappointed that my favourite Joe figure can't even be done right and actually is depressing because truly that is the only figure I wanted from any company.  I have talked to so many of my online Joe friends and they are all disappointed as well and think they both look like garbage.  I actually canceled my Hasbro V2SS preorder because just looking at it makes me angry and depressed I won't support it.  So with that news looks like we won't be getting a decent Storm Shadow V2.   Man these companies don't know their customers.  Hasbro classified Storm Shadows have been a let down across the board.  I truly thought Super 7 would save us since they have some really nice looking stuff and they are known for paying attention to details and being cartoon/comic accurate.  Just an example of Super 7 was the Panthro and people mentioned the harness was not the proper colours so they released a second v2 of Panthro to fix it along with sent all people a new harness for the V1.  Now super 7 is being lazy, cheaping out  and so on and so on.  Example is they now don't do the shipping boxes for the figure and just wrap in plastic now.  I have no more to say my mind is just blown and just so disappointed that we can't have a fan favourite figure done right.

    I found this tucked away in a 1972 DC, but it's obviously later than that. It's a strange mix of characters. No X-Men, no Thor. I'm trying to date it but could use some help.lt appears to be cut out of a newspaper, but has no TM info.

    @greggy I just saw your post in thee MMMS thread. Do you think this newsprint was something from that? Thoughts? I thought it was from FOOM or something. It's so familiar but there are probably hundreds of similar things.

  3. Michael is a cool dude. I've been following his account since pretty much I joined to learn the ropes of this forum. (Watch out for that @lizards2 guy though.) :shy:

    Saw he was selling some Cherry books and I snagged a couple at a good price. He posts very good pix and is an excellent shipper. Shipped from IL to NJ and had it in 5 days.
