    Well, I set the clock - made coffee, was all set for 7 am to roll around - BAM new stuff came up. Put four Skullbarins in my cart (one was the Warp Fushion #1 on my list - I was so excited.)moved on, bam two more lesser figures. Then it was all over. Go to my cart to check out and all four of the Brains had been sold before I could - What the fuck is up with that? I thought that if it's in the cart it's yours! So being disillusioned - I removed the remaining two lesser figures and left never to glance at thier website again................ :cry:

    Those of you who know what I speakith shall understand!

    The filter on my clients corporate interweb will not grant me access to such frustrations. I do feel your pain from previous attempts though :)

    Was this an advertised update? As there's some nice stuff up for sale on there (or was up for sale)

    They had a little blurb on the main Kaiju page, but not on the store front page or in any emails like the last couple

    Also, is the rainyday brain still up? I need that and I cant get to the site from this office! Oh well, I'm guessing someone already snagged it

    I feel your pain, red skullwing there and gone...

    I've heard many a people mention filling their cart only to have it emptied by the time they get to the checkout. I think the secret is too pick you battles and get one or two and call it good.

    If you got a confirmation you pretty much got it.

    Congrats. I guess I should of taken the few I saw pop up first and called good.

    No more reaching for the Sky!

    It's hard though right? So many good deals and a chance to boost the size of the collection at a reasonable price...

    But yeah the few times I've been on point for the auction I've never come away with anything because I was in hog heaven and took to long loading up my cart. You think I would have learned after the first time.

    I feel for you, the WARP was #1 on my list for the longest time.

    Hey guys, fortunately being in the midwest, I didn't have to get up at 7 for the Mandarake sale. Also by some divine intervention, I was able to get that Warp brain...I'm excited!! I also had the rainy day in my cart but it was gone when checking out...

    yeah, this was at 10 AM EST so I was at work.

    I was able to sneak on and got most of the good stuff guys, hope you don't hate me. I picked up:

    rainy day skull brain
    one of the secretter 5 brains
    purple walder skull brain

    mason, I almost grabbed that red skullwing too. I'm glad to hear you got it though.

    guys, I'm truly sorry. you know when something like this happens it's always going to be us going against each other to a certain extent. there are only so many figures and more of us, but I mean, that's part of the fun, right (he he)?

    since I'm always shopping around, if I ever see figures I already have and you guys need them, I'll let you know. just let me know what you want/need.

    Skylar - once again I need to not be so sarcastic on the boards. It got me in trouble with VGA last week. I am good. I was mainly just fucking around. We are all cool here (most of us anyway - I am looking in that wiener Laffin's direction) LOL!!!! We all collect the same thing - right? We are all bound to step on each other every once in awhile as you said. I'm cool with it. And my credit card thanks you!!!!! ;)

    haha no no, I wasn't trying to say you were being a jerk or anything. I honestly feel guilty. I figured that there probably a bunch of people on here trying for them and I knew it would be like that.

    but for real, I'll keep an eye out for anyone. I'm all for unity via toy collecting; you watch for me, I'll watch for you.

    Isn't that Ramos's point with this board?

    Helpin other collectors out with friendly competition and camadrie?

    I guess we should share if there is a special one were looking for.

    Kozik always tells what he needs and usually gets it!

    Part of the fun is the hunt and hunting for someone else! 8)
