I just picked up Blind Cowboy minus Dead Horse from evilbay under $200. I found the set today for $430 shipped. I have a learning curve to master buying these things. The mark up is crazy when you look at original cost then if you have discount to boot.
 
No problem. I also see that they just made the announcement for the portable Caesar and Heavy TK's! Booyah!

Portable is the smaller versions right? Heavy TK's look sweet.

Will they announce when the pre-order will be available on facebook then that day go to Bambaland to pre-order?
 
Yes, the portable is 1/12 scale. The robots in 1/12 match really well (though slightly smaller) to the 1/6 figs.
They'll make the announcement of the date things go on sale generally a few days or weeks before, depending. We know Sham will be very soon but no official date yet, same for Caesar Jobs. Sale dates and lengths can vary greatly. A resident sale (Caesar Jobs) means it will be in the store for more than 24 hours available to anyone, but some sales that are called "limited" can be a few seconds to just a few minutes. That's when you can see grown men cry. Some sales are also limited to 3AA members only, and you can only apply to be a member on one day every year in Jan.

Dang. No wonder some of these are pricey and impossible to find.

Congrats on the BC ! I managed to get Shadow II on Retail for about $90.00 from Sideshow. If SS didn't get shipments in she'd be going for double on Ebay. Penumbra was steep until SS's shipments arrived bringing down the price on Ebay.

Great pics. Where does the backgrounds come from?

Unfortunately, everything I own this far is thru trade or eBay. I did land Tommy Red for retail. I soon discovered I enjoy WWR pieces better , so I'll have Tommy and Blind Cowboy then everything else WWR related. I am hoping to get a Bramble and Dropcloth via trade
 
^ i got Tommy Red at retail with OSB, i was waiting for Shadow 2 in-hand pics before ordering and BAM! It sold out just as i went to order :lol

Congrats on the Blind Cowboy get Darkseed :hi5:

Thanks. I picked up a few more via trade (De Plumes and Commanders). The only thing I am looking for is a grunt (or two) then give it a rest for awhile.

I received BarGuest De Plume and Tommy yesterday. Amazing...their ability to hold extreme poses an extra plus. Something drastically missing from the much more subdue HT poses.

I been watching you tube video's for some ideas, legion collector's have great vision when setting these up. Fantastic displays.

Thanks a lot Nova ! :hi5:
 
Dunno why, but I'm just not that interested in the 'bots. I got one Armstrong and it's pretty cool, but I got too much on my plate to get sucked into ceasars and whatnot.
