Where the hell...

did McFarlane toys go?

I was just checking their site and I remember I haven't bought anything from them for over a year. The main reason because I hadn't found any, I go to the US a fe times a year and always look out for them but hadn't seen any in a while. Not at Walmart nor KB Toys nor Toys R Us, just a few in Hot Topic or Specers but they're very limited and rarely have the really good ones.

So where the hell can I buy McFarlane toys now?

I was hoping this would be about Carmen Sandiego.

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:02pm

It is! She's inside that robot suit.

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:02pm

Also, grow up and stop playing with robots!!!!

*plays with tiny plastic Yoda and Kodos*

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:03pm

She is? Damn it! I don't have the warrent yet!

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:06pm

Robots are badass, like this one

And this one, which I own

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:07pm

Also, who the hell is Carmen Sandiego?

DaniellesGarden on Jul 17 '08 at 1:08pm

geez i havent looked in a long time.. lol.. but next time Im at the toy store ab, ill take a look for ya

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:10pm

The best PBS show ever (besides Reading Rainbow):

It was also an awesome computer game. For nerds.

skeev on Jul 17 '08 at 1:10pm

I have noticed a decrease in them as well. On occasion I'd see the dragons or Army figs they've been doing but not so much anymore.

martiandrivein on Jul 17 '08 at 1:13pm

I thought this blog was about Carmen Sandiego as well

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:19pm

Daniella-Thanks!

Dee-I'll watch it when I'm home.

Skeev-Yeah, dragons is what I've seen most, but still very few, but no regular spawn figures.

Martian-Is she hot at least?

Dee-On second thought, if she's not hot I might not watch it.

professorE on Jul 17 '08 at 1:21pm

She sports a fedora and a scarf.

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:23pm

You be the judge?

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:24pm

Although, she's not doing well lately:

professorE on Jul 17 '08 at 1:26pm

I dunno, DeeAnn. I've seen hotter babes.

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:27pm

ACK!

ISABOA on Jul 17 '08 at 1:27pm

ahhh carmen - we had fun times together

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:29pm

Ok, I'll watch it, then, hopefully she was in better shape than in the second picture.

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:30pm

And also, I just saw this, and i like it

ISABOA on Jul 17 '08 at 1:32pm

AB - I was REALLY into mcfarlane when they first came out -

i still have every toy they made through series 5

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:33pm

You don't like them anymore or just didn't follow up?

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:35pm

This one is still among my favorites but I never got it (cause I never found it), I just got the viking Spawn sans horse

ISABOA on Jul 17 '08 at 1:35pm

I had kids...

and started buying transformers and such for my boy

I was able to afford continuing to collect my comics but the toys had to go -

also - my wife is not keen on the house being covered in toys - so they are all kept in lether suitcases - every now and again I pull a suitcase out and let my kids play with them -

but these are all 10-12 years old

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:37pm

Hahahaha.....I forgot MacFarlene was the "Spawn" guy.

I always confuse him with Seth MacFarlane, who created Family Guy.

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jul 17 '08 at 1:37pm

I was wondering what robots had to do with the Griffens...

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:40pm

Well that's understandable, but perhaps later you can buy them "for your kids".

skeev on Jul 17 '08 at 1:41pm

I still have a passing interest in the sports figures, whenever I see a Pittsburgh player come out I generally try to find it.

Also, when he would do a tie in for a movie/game/other comic that was a fan of. I loved his Marv figures.

It's just to damn expensive to keep up with anymore though.

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:42pm

Oh no, Seth McFarlane's toys are pretty different

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:43pm

Yeah Skeev, yesterday I saw Hellboy 2 and was hoping they were doing a series about them, that's why I was checking their site today.

bcrider on Jul 17 '08 at 1:48pm

Isn't there a McFarlane store in Arizona?

*runs off to Google*

bcrider on Jul 17 '08 at 1:50pm

Hey, there is. It used to be in Tempe, but now it's in Glendale.

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 1:51pm

Damn, Arizona is too far from me, I usually just go to Brownsville, TX, and it's merely for shopping.

bcrider on Jul 17 '08 at 2:02pm

Oh, well, fart.

What about FYE? They're in Brownsville. They show that they carry McFarlane. So does Suncoast, and their website shows they're in Brownsville.

Maybe??? :D

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 2:06pm

Yeah, I bought my HR Giger's Li 2 from FYE, but haven't seen any as of late. I'm not aquainted with Suncoast.

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 2:09pm

This one, probably my favorite that I own

bcrider on Jul 17 '08 at 2:09pm

Suncoast, at least what I remember of it, was solely for movies; they carried (ours shut down) DVDs, VHS tapes, movie posters, toys and clothes with movie themes, stuff like that. They had a ton of Nightmare Before Christmas stuff when it came out.

bcrider on Jul 17 '08 at 2:09pm

I really really like that viking dude and the horse.

skeev on Jul 17 '08 at 2:09pm

I think all Suncoasts shut down. I know all the ones around here did.

bcrider on Jul 17 '08 at 2:11pm

Well, CRAP. I found them online!!! I wonder if they just do internet stuff now.

xiv on Jul 17 '08 at 2:31pm

i have like 50 of those spawn things. i use to be able to buy them at walmart and target for 12-15bucks each.

where did the spawn toys go... more like where did all toys go....

the toy section in most stores suck these days. stupid electronics have taken over.

againstbound on Jul 17 '08 at 2:36pm

Yeah, I liked Walmart cause they sold them for 3-4 bucks cheaper than other stores.

Malcolm Man on Jul 17 '08 at 2:42pm

Not McFarlane, but I totally bought Morpheus a couple years ago.

A lot of my toys went "missing" when I moved out of my parents house a few years ago.

Malcolm Man on Jul 17 '08 at 2:44pm

Acyually, I think these are from McFarlane

Phlebegothnyarre. on Jul 18 '08 at 7:55am

Last time i saw some of them in a target store ;P , still i have one more terrific idea, i could sell you mine!
(Hell yhea! finally i made this F%$#&/ Account!)

Kookaberry on Jul 18 '08 at 11:49am

I don't know what MacFarlane is but I know what Glendale is. If I'm ever up in the Phoenix area for shopping again (gas is prohibitively expensive these days) I'll hop over and take a lookie lou for ya.

againstbound on Jul 18 '08 at 12:19pm

McFarlane Toys

I don't know what Glendale is.

martiandrivein on Jul 18 '08 at 12:22pm

I still see this blog and think Carmen Sandiego.

EricDiaz on Jul 18 '08 at 12:26pm

McFarlane kicks ass! I also enjoyed The Maxx comics back in the day.

Kookaberry on Jul 18 '08 at 12:41pm

Dingus that's where Becky said the McFarlane toy store is.

bcrider on Jul 18 '08 at 12:57pm

LOL @ Dingus

I haven't heard that one in a while. :)

I called my softball coach a pecker-head a couple days ago and I thought he was going to piss himself laughing.
