This is so lame. Seriously, I don't at all condone this type of behavior but you can at least kind of understand when someone does this with a boxed set or a vehicle with an exclusive figure or something. Still wrong, but you can get where some unhinged/ slightly evil person decides that they don't want to buy 4 figures they already have for one new figure. But one single figure that sells for under $10? That's lame.

It really pisses me off when I see collectors do this with heroic figures like Batman and Captain America. Something about it just seems so wrong. At least this dude stole a villain, which definitely suits them better. I like to think that when someone does this with heroic figures, they're eventually driven mad by the stares of the heroic action figures they own, silently judging them until the make things right.

Congratulations, Dan! I'm so happy for you and that everything went well!

My daughter, Adora, is now almost 5 months and it's amazing to watch what new things she learns to do every few days. I'm really glad to see you introducing Spencer to Grayskull so young! Adora laid down next to me while we put it together in her room. While He-Man and She-Ra were present, so was Leopold (her stuffed red duplo bunny whom seems to be her favorite toy). While I've heard so many people talk about having children as forcing you to "grow up" (and in many ways it does) for me it's also allowed me to begin approaching things with a mindset of childlike wonder again. While Adora's still too young to fully grasp everything about playing with her toys, it's a blast to watch her reactions to stuff. She loves the chunky little people and stuff that's red for some reason!

It's really quite amazing. I didn't think anything would be better in Grayskull in 2013, but a kid proved me wrong. ;) Sounds like you'll probably have to start reviewing some Fisher Price stuff now, eh?

Only problem I've had was with my Arkham Asylum Joker. My Lara Croft, Armored Batman, Harley Quinn, and all of my Final Fantasy figures have been perfectly fine. The Joker, though,was atrocious. Arm's fell off too easily.

This is a very incredibly cool exclusive and I definitely plan on picking one up. My gosh, NECA just comes up with the coolest ideas for exclusives and stuff. They really do pick stuff that's truly out of left field.

After seeing the disappointing Walking Dead figures this week, this is a sad reminder of what McFarlane was capable of previously. Honestly, there are still so many McFarlane figures from the late 90's/early 2000's that look as fantastic as some of the figures being released today.

Great picture, as well! I love the lighting and the ways that it reflects off of the figure.

That is about the coolest thing I have ever seen! Great work to whomever customized that.
