I got veeeery lucky. I check my Wishlist a few times a day and when I did it was available with "6 remaining". But they sold like hotcakes (the main reason I even went with two is the female figure for customs). It's okay, as long as I have the ODIN Space Station and SDCC figures, I'll al...

Just ordered two sets of Surface Troops. That's exciting.

Oh, for crying out loud, how do you keep scooping me? :D

I just ordered the Arctic Outpost. Now all I'm missing are the Urban Copter, Surface Troops, Anti-Tank Gun, and the as-yet unannounced sets (Heroes series 2 and the Pacific-themed WWII soldiers seen at NYTF).

Edit: Got the Urban Copter on the way, so that's everything that's been released so far.

I'm going to cop out and break it down by year, because the quality of the sets just keeps getting better. It's not really fair to directly compare the new, high-detail sets with the more simple first series. 2013: Light Armor Outpost - The first set I got. 2014: Hovercraft - Just barely edging out ...

I noticed that the latest Assault Drone set includes a second set of tracks, with instructions to throw out the original pair. I compared the two, and the new ones are indeed a bit longer and less shiny. I suspect that the wrong rubber was used for a time, which shrank after packing. My Battle Tank ...

Amazon really. It's just a matter of fiddling with the search settings so you list the ones that are not currently being sold. Add them to a wishlist and voila. It also helps I'm part of a couple other groups that list things like that. Yup, that worked and I've got the Series 1 Heroes on the way. ...

One of these days, you're going to have to clue me into your sources. I still can't find the Set 1 Heroes and only just ordered the jeep!

I wouldn't mind a Forward Unto Dawn to display alongside my Enterprise. (Speaking of great kits all over eBay, by the way, that one is down to $100-$125, and I *highly* recommend it. It's a fun build and the resulting ship is HUGE.)

I was wondering about that before it hit the site. I'd seen the ToyFair picture for the set, and the Amazon listing, but neither let us get a good view of the sculpt. I'm going to have to get two copies of this set most likely - I have heads from the HALO Heroes line that, while they came with fema...

One surprise: the "Surface Troops" set includes a female sculpt.
