Some punk stole the ark out of the only deluxe pack at Walmart.

I noticed that at my local Wal-Mart, but with the Cairo Thug/Marion Ravenwood 2pk, the thug was missing and with the German Bike, the german guy was missing, freaking thieves.

I suspect that as toy prices continue to escalate we'll all see more swapping and outright theft.

I picked up a Monkey Man, Mutt w/jacket, and the russian chick. Half way to the send off.

Guess I'm just a little annoyed that one of the Russian soldiers I bought came with a pre broken hand. But other then that one issue I rather like the Indy line.

anyone know what kind of stands work with these figures?

Probably. Companies are raising their prices and instead of re-evaluating are hoping on customers taking the hit-which is usually the case. Companies tend to pad the profits they need to make by a rather large amount. This allows them to have some give here and there. However it seems to me that companies are being exceptionally greedy with this current market. They don't seem to realize if you make it too expensive for someone to buy,
THEY WON"T BUY IT.

With this attitude though that is definitely pushing the more fanatical group in this hobby to take more desperate measures and we are already seeing that.

Most of us will simply not buy as much but for the "plastic-crack addict". They'll resort to stealing get their fix.

In the past two days I've managed to find seven more of the Russian Soldiers.

I almost missed one of them because it had a 'Monkeyman' insert in the front.

I wonder if I should put it on eBay as a 'RARE VARIANT'?

So far I've had luck with the round black stands that are made for the newer Star Wars figures. I'll see if I can find a link.

that would be great. Thanks!

I never would have believed it. I'm now army-building Ugha Warriors and strategizing ways to obtain 13 Crystal Skeletons...

I've got one of my Ughas on a new Joe stand. Works just fine!
