what do you do with your orphaned figures
ok so i completed a deal where i bought a 1000 pieces well i finally finished sorting them and i am happy with most of it but there is one thing that i did not exspect. 85 figures did not have bases and 28 did not have a figure that met there base. so this is my question what do you guys do with your figures that do not have bases most i don't care that much about but a few i really would like. are there people who are in simular positions who trade for one part or another or what. i guese what i am asking is what would you guys do in this situation.

if the figures/ dials are important, for figures you need, i would obtain the ROOKIE version, for the dials, then you could get REV. or... you just snap the flight stands off and use em as future supply.

You see more orphaned figures with sets like supernova, and avengers. The older sets didnt really come with half and half figs, (although some did every once in a while). This guy just lost the top/bottom halves. I dont think there is a big trade thread for older halved figs....

You could always throw them up on a trade thread and trade them out. There are plenty of modders out there who might want the extra flight stand/figures/bases/whatever to make cool stuff.



And I am done with my graceless heart

So, tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

I did it awhile back with a bunch of figures that had broken pieces or were mismatched. It wasn't a great deal, but it got rid of the extras and helped someone out to make some cool mods!

We could all start a charity for them. It would go something like:

For just pennies a day, you can help with an orphaned Heroclix. We will send you the picture of a clix. Many of these clix don't have a base of figure of there own, but that can change with your help.

Chase figures and a sold out WF = the stabbing pain in your seat from WizKids!

And now, another price increase, it just keeps getting better!
