Same price up here in Maine...

forgot to mention that we have an 8 month old dog that I'm worried about spraying around...do they make pet-friendly sprays? -matt

Title says it all, started killing 1-2 ants/day about a week ago in my 2nd floor bathroom. I thought ants only showed up in the spring/summer, not when it's single digits outside and our neighborhood is covered in 2 feet of snow? I'm assuming these are carpenter ants, killed around 5-6 of them...

my Minas Morgul showed up over the weekend, I'm happy with it, not as much detail as Minas Tirith but a nice companion piece, I've got them bookending my LOTR EE dvd's in the movie room...happy to get a low number as well, 254/8500! -matt

a quick bump to mention that rumor has it you can grab this set for $16.99 @ FYE right now, have to check this out tonight! -matt

I just tried Three Olives last weekend (on sale, $20 for a handle) and it was pretty decent for the money... -matt

the crown won't ship out until May or June, I think... -matt

hmmm, been looking to pick up both the 12" Alien and Predators...then I find out that there are 3 different versions of the Alien out there...clear head with brown claws (fingernails :D ), clear head with black nails, and a milky colored head with black nails...been a while since I popped the...

some pretty cool news today regarding NECA's Cult Classics line...Leatherface has been bumped to Series 2 while Mohawk (gremlins 2) is added to Series 1. And the mystery figure is revealed to be Patrick Bateman from American Psycho...sounds like a good start to me...

just wanted to share the good find I had at the mall last night...had pretty much given up hope of finding an 18" Pinhead w/ sound but luckily the Spencers Gifts I went to had one left and an 18" Chatterer...the best part? $19.99 for Pinhead and $9.99 (!) for Chatterer...nice! These were my...

went to best buy at lunch, tags were up for this set, yet it was nowhere on the floor...asked an employee where they were, his reply was "we didn't get them in yet, maybe tomorrow." Luckily, I saw a manager nearby and asked him, 1 minute after he went out back, returned with a whole cart full of...

I actually just got into figures this past year, seems like it was good timing since the majority of my stuff is NECA...a couple of movie maniacs from McFarlane and some Mezco stuff as well (family guy, scarface)...just another way for my money to disappear!

well, I went ahead and ordered Minas Morgul as well...the free crown (shipping only) pushed me over the edge, damn them! ;)

big fan of NECA here. I've got a couple of their 7" Hellraiser figs, the Freddy vs. Jason boxset and will be picking up the Michael Myers/Dr. Loomis boxset ASAP. That one looks very nice (and the reviews have been great too). Looking forward to their "Cult Classics" figures in 2005!

To answer Chris W.'s question from page 19...my Minas Tirith also has the grey knob. Maybe they decided the White Tree was too fragile to include? Also haven't received a confirmation email from the slipcase offer (ordered at 9am EST today), not sweating it though...great looking set! -matt...
