cackling. with. GLEEEEEE!!!

This is mostly powrhug's fault, but I will admit to being weak & easily corruptible. (Also, these are way cheaper than the minifigs.)





I really only need Fury to have a workable set, but I'm sure I'll keep going until I get Bruce & Steve & Iron Man. Stay tuned for the continuing adventures...

So how many sets did you buy to get this lot? (I.e. I don't mind getting them for the kids if I've SOME chance at a Thor for my baby.)

[topaz119.livejournal.com]

That was 6 sets of 3 and I ended up with 8 of the 12 possible characters.

I got them @ Target on the way to the office this morning but I might take a look on eBay later to see what it might cost to fill out the set w/o the random packs.

[katieupsidedown.livejournal.com]

I bought a ton of those because I bought 2 packs and realized there was a Coulson, so I decided to buy more till I got him. That wound up taking me to the point where I have 11/12 figures - all but Captain America!

[topaz119.livejournal.com]

I have an extra Captain America I could send you--you wouldn't happen to have an extra Nick Fury, would you?

Also, this set having Coulson was a huge plus -- I might be a tiny bit attached to the guy. :D

Sorry, I only have one Fury! My unclaimed extras right now are just Black Widow, Hawkeye, Thor, Loki, Hulk, and Tony. I've been slowly dispersing them to my local fangirl friends.

I bought some of the trading cards too but the only good thing in them is the stickers - I got a SHIELD sticker! And I got 2 dogtags and promptly got the SHIELD one with Fury, Hill, and Coulson so I stopped there. One of my LJ friends said there are slap bracelets too but I haven't seen those.

If they made Coulson action figures I would buy them ALL. Right now we just have a biggish Iron Man and one of the cute POP! Iron Man bobbleheads.

I'm in the middle of writing a Clint/Coulson, so I am all about our favorite agent-in-charge.

I did see the slap bracelets this morning, and the dog tags, but held strong and did not clean them out. I did weaken on some kind of "puzzle eraser" which I have yet to put together but I got a Captain America who is seriously adorable.

Swag is so important, right? don't answer that

I am super into the Clint/Coulson and Natasha/Clint/Coulson (and even Natasha/Clint) lately as Steve/Tony has seemingly taken a dive post-movie in favor of Tony/Loki and Tony/Bruce.

Coulson is my favorite always, though. :| Competence kink, I has it. This is why my group has been so into The Losers since it came out - everyone knows how to do their damn job and they look hot doing it.

There may be some slap bracelets in my future.

Clint is turning out to be my little black dress in this fandom--I have another one started that's Natasha/Clint, and one that's Coulson and Clint gen. (Well, it's more that Renner is turning out to be the little black dress of *everything* this year, as I haven't written much without him in 2012.)

I am waffling on the dog tags. sigh.

Is Cap still available? Do you need an Iron Man and Steve Rogers? Within four sets, I got triplicates of those two. :)

[topaz119.livejournal.com]

Cap is still available--I'll let you know on the IM & Steve (I broke down and hit ebay; with any luck I'll win the silly auctions tonight and have my set and return to just obsessively writing about these characters, but if I don't, I'll definitely ping you.)

[topaz119.livejournal.com]

I managed to get the rest of my set on eBay, so I'm good there. PM me an address & I'll send you my extra Cap.

I feel like I'm back in my popslash days, sharing swag around. :D

Yay!!!! I'm hiting Target over lunch.

There are a couple of dealers on eBay who have individuals for $0.99...with shipping I'm sure it's more, but that's still pretty reasonable if you don't want to have to keep buying the sets in hopes of getting a single.

[topaz119.livejournal.com]

I found one dealer who has all of the ones I'm missing and put a bid in on them; with any luck I'll get a couple of them and save on shipping and be done with it.

Let me know who you need when you get through with your first pass; I'll be happy to send along any extras.

[kare.livejournal.com]

Oh thank you! I actually struck out at two Targets today (KC must be one swag-lovin town), and have one more to try tomorrow. If that fails, I'll just go ahead and do the eBay route.
