I think it was
and what stupidity with Paypal?

NYCC was this past weekend indeed. I wished dearly that I could have gone.

The stupidity regarding my being unable to "verify" my account due to a lack of both credit card and bank account. :T They won't let me spend, otherwise. I think I can still make the money, but there's little use in that if I cannot spend it.

[Dragonrider1227]

that sucks. I'm sorry =(

[Dragonrider1227]

guys! guys! Sorry for the double post but I gotta show what I finally got...



He's great! And ever since getting him, he's become besties with my mother's Mickey Mouse.

Even offering him a soda from his home country.

He won't stop running our DVD of Peter Pan though
I got him at Playhouseth.com. An online toy store housed in Thailand.

It's currently out of stock. In fact, I think I got the last one. But keep an eye open. They might get more. At the $36 I paid for him (that includes shipping) it might still seem a wee bit pricey but it beats the $50 they want for him on Ebay. Plus, if I went with ebay...

I wouldn't have this amusing (and probably unlicensed) Mickey Mouse box he was shipped in. XD
So Funko, you're officially off the hook... for now :d evil:

[Little Brown Fox]

Well, that's nice. For you, anyway.

The worst part about all of this for me is that I could probably make that amount fairly easily... if it wasn't for the small, teeny problem of my Paypal's not verified and they're being jerks about it.

Nice, but if I got one I'd have to get the ochanomize and uran ones too. You pix of the box was a bit small, is there also a Cobalt in the series? Also it isn't double posting once the edit box on you last post goes away after 48 hrs.

[Dragonrider1227]

Yeah, I'm looking into Ochanomizu, Uran, and maybe even Pluto in the future myself. As far as I know, there are no plans for a Cobalt though.

That's good to know about double posting. Thanks

[Little Brown Fox]

Cobalt almost always gets left out. But he looks almost identical to Atom, anyways, so it's probably hard to make decent merch of him, anyways, even if they were so inclined to include such an unpopular character...

[Dragonrider1227]

Plus, the Astro Boy line appears to be based on The Worlds greatest robot arc and Cobalt didn't do anything in that
