    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Sticky Bun(ny) It feels like the paint did not cure, and is for lack of a better term 'tacky'. Similair to when you are waiting for paint to dry, but it aint quite there. I thought it might have something to do with the metalic paint having a different composition than the other 'flat'...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    My Bunny's All Sticky! I just opened my Dr Honeydew, and the robo-bunny is quite sticky, almost as if the paint weren't dry. Has anybody else had this happen? I considered spraying him with some hairspray as a fixative, but i am afraid that might dull him down a bit. Any suggestions would be...

    Sideshow Toys did a 12" Marty Feldman from YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN. And Neca has a 12" Vincent Price due later this month. Art Asylum has an 18" Alice Cooper. I am pretty sure Mego did a 12" Cheryl Ladd, back in the Charlies Angels days. Sideshow is gearing up a James Bond line, with all the actors...

    The Collector's Club...

    I think if they started a club and the initial dues were $30-$35, and for that you received a VC Beaker, as well as the opportunity to buy the other figures as they became available for $20 delivered, that would be fair to everyone. With the retail of $15 for Beaker at Wizard World, we will be...

    The Collector's Club...

    Luke, the $35.00 mejmbership fee would serve two purposes: 1) It would be considered as earnest money, to show Palisades that we are indeed sincere in our commitment to the club. (also with most clubs, the $35.00 fee includes your membership kit with the first figure). Also it could be the seed...

    The Collector's Club...

    Collector Club I think such a club is the way to go. Here is my reply to Ken, followed by my further comments..... "Kenneth, A canned reply is better than none at all, so although your apology is appreciated, it is far from necessary. I think that forming a dues paying collector's club is a...

    Most obscure TMS character you'd like to see as a figure

    Too Many Choices Since Sweetums is already in the works. I would have to cast my vote for Uncle Deadly. I really liked the monsters. I also would like to see variants based on the Star Wars episode, or the main figures as superheros. Wayne and Wanda would be a fun exclusive. Even a Pig...

    Virus alert!! re: ebay auction...

    That' s just flipping outrageous. Since I also emailed him, I will definately be on alert. A thought, do you have the address of the person who sent the virus? if so do an ebay search and see if it comes up as the same person. Regardless, this seller is suspect at best. We all know he is...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Kane, Sorry bro, but the WOS line died after the assortment that had Willy, Ralph and Itchy & Scratchy. If you go to Entertainment Earth, you can pick up the recent cases for about half price currently. You are correct that the WOS figures were always meant for the mass market. Remember the...

    Disgraceful E-Bay Auction

    BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I emailed the seller, and told him I just got back from the mall, where I saw a dozen Hooenydews at various strores. However all of them were green! So as a result I do not need his 'error' figure, but would pay him $50.00 for the YELLOW one he claims to have. Lets see if...

    Disgraceful E-Bay Auction

    Other "errrors" After reading that auction, I realized that my Miss Piggy figure is an error also. It does not look like the photo! The photo has long "real" hair, and the figure has short sculpted hair! :confused: what a mix-up! I will put it up straight away (sarcasm) :D

    Disgraceful E-Bay Auction

    Actually since he has a Buy it now on it, someone should Place a bid to de-activate that. If ebay ends the auction early (as it should) the bid will be cancelled. If not you can recind your bid yourself, and in the explination state the fraudulent claims of the seller.
