And in that spirit I would like to introduce anyone who may be interested to the McFarlane's Dragons : Quest for the Lost King series of figures.

I don't know as I'd go that far, have you seen his Twisted Tales Red Riding Hood ? He does go in for detail though, which I love to see.

I have no real interest in Dragons but a friend of mine would love those. I always love to remind him of that "dragon" guy in Starskey and Hutch the Movie.

Fig, I find your signature somewhat disturbing....

Except someone eating a fry through their nose. I've seen someone do that.

I have all the 1st series and I'm waiting to pounce on the 2nd one, but now with series 3 it seems Todd is running a bit low on ideas. His Water Clan Dragons are my first gripe , I loved the 1st one but they just keep getting weirder, I could over look it if they put a sunken ship or two on the bases to make them look larger. I guess he's walking a fine line between Sea Dragon and Sea Serpent. Lastly his Komodo Clan Dragon from Series 3 looks too much like a real Komodo Dragon that is standing upright with armor....at least give it wings..... :roll:

I have the complete Series 1.

I have begun my search in local stores for Series 2 (no luck, yet).

Now, I am going to start saving up for Series 3.

I've always loved dragons, longer than werewolves I think. It's hard for werewolves to compete for my cash though.. darn dragons are everywhere!

I know what you mean, I have a rather large flight of dragons myself. Though they are everywhere it's hard to find good detailed ones that are also reasonable, before Mcfarlane's came out I was collecting all the Dragonheart figures by Kenner, then I was buying Enchantica, now that's an expensive series I only have 5 of em' out of several hundred just for an example. Good werewolves are even harder to find than a good dragon though, I'm lucky if I find one or two good werewolf items a year.

Since I have so many Draco fans here, I'll tell you about a movie I just found out about that is coming out Holiday next year, it's called Eragon based on the book by the same name ( which I'm reading/it's great ! ).

I don't think the series 2 is out yet, Mcfarlane says October, Amazon says November 11th. The Eternal Clan Dragon boxset is December I think.

I'd like to collect a few dragon figures. But I have other plans with the money I have saved up. A-kon17 is one. Some DVD titles. A new HD-DVD player when it comes out. That or Bluray. And maybe a new gaming system. (Xbox360)

I'm waiting on a 360, 399.00 is just way too much for a system though when the games are 50 bucks each. After Christmas they may go down in price and if not then I'll hold off until Halo 3 releases.

This would be a great series to start with then, TRU carries them, Gamestop stores, and some comic shops. You can order them from Amazon.com also just search for Mcfarlane Dragons and type in the series # you want. The basic figures are around 10.00 while the boxsets are only 20.00 and since they are twice the size , it's worth it.

There will be 2 packages to choose from. One for $299.00, and the other for $399.00.

The one for $399.00 also comes with other stuff thats normally sold seperately. If you bought the Xbox360 alone and the accessories seperately, you'll be spending somewhere around $500.00

That's why if I was to buy one I'd purchase the 400.00 set..unfortunatly I need 400 first..... :wink:

I know this system is supposed to be great, but 400 ? Didn't Bill Gates learn his lesson with the orig. Xbox ?

Don't be suprised if the bundled PS3 costs a lot more than the bundled Xbox360.
