Just to spread the word - We will be doing a Memorial Day Sale for the remaining stock of Grim Brims from C2e2 over at my buddy (and fellow collaborator on this mini figure project) Kyle's Bigcartel store.

Click on the link for the deets!

For the record, in case anyone was wondering or curious, the Chicago Horde has officially disbanded.

**ChgoMarc** · June 5, 2013, 04:32pm

Vote was taken last night. All those present voted "aye".

**Son of Keldor** · June 6, 2013, 09:44am

The ceremony to burn all horde member shirts will commence this Saturday @ Wrigley Field prior to the game!

I dont have a Horde shirt. But if you need, I can make it rain when it's time to put the blaze out

**Son of Keldor** · June 14, 2013, 12:09am

Like I mentioned to some of you I'm selling some of my customs including my Custom Fuerza T figures and you guys get first dibs.

All 8 of the original figures have been created using MOTUC parts and sculpted parts.

Here is a group shot of the figs, only one I need to take pics of is the the last one I did , shidoshi (jitzu)

Please PM for prices. Pimp Skeletor is not for Sale!!!

This former Chicago boy, presently residing directly across the lake from the Windy City -- and if the wind is blowing in the right direction, occasionally able to catch a whiff of Mr. Beef or Uno's -- is interested to learn how it is that this thread has over a million views.

**Son of Keldor** · June 19, 2013, 01:46pm

Mainly cuz it's over 8 years old.

**Heeeere's Olesker!** · June 19, 2013, 02:44pm

The Australian thread's nine years old, and Chicago has twice as many posts as an entire country?!!!

We just simply rock

**fisto power** · June 22, 2013, 03:21pm

If anyone needs a spirit of hordak I ordered a few extras. I can do a better price if you want one and a fighting foe men three pack. Also willing to trade for clamp champ

**Shankor** · June 25, 2013, 10:10am

Who's up for getting the Horde back together one last time for a meet up Friday?

**ChgoMarc** · June 25, 2013, 02:51pm

I'm out. Sorry.

**Shankor** · June 26, 2013, 03:26pm

Friday morning, Grant Park. Roll out if y'all want

**Red Trinity** · June 26, 2013, 11:33pm

Hey Jack- thanks for poppin' in. We used to post here A LOT. Mostly nonsense, but we formed strong friendships through the years and talked about anything and nothing.

That's why.

I may be interested in trading Clampy when he comes in for s SoH... I'm in Des Plaines, so not too far from you!

**fisto power** · July 2, 2013, 03:36pm

Sorry to hi jack this thread but going to Chicago tomorrow and was curious about a couple things.

1st are there any really great toy stores?

2nd does it make more sense to leave our car at the hotel and just get taxis to go to museums and what not or drive myself?

Thanks

You might also want to try Rad Vintage in Andersonville here is their site: http://www.radvintage.com/ all accessible by the CTA from downtown, either by train or bus. While they don't have a hugely massive selection of toys, they have more MOTU vintage than Quake does, at least they did the last time I went in

Also I'll update the KA POW collectibles address, as Goluphi put Quake's address in twice: 711 W. Belmont Ave, Chicago, IL. 60657. This is about a 5 minute walk from the Belmont Red Lin 'El' stop. I haven't actually been to this place, so thanks Goluphi for the heads up!

If you're downtown at a hotel, I'd leave the car there and get a day pass for the CTA. The museums down in the loop, or on Lake Shore Drive are either within walking distance, or a short bus ride.

Enjoy your stay!!

**chrisbryan** · July 29, 2013, 07:45pm

Thanks guys! Is graham crackers any good? The hotel we are staying at is close.

**Thunderkill** · July 29, 2013, 09:48pm

What Goluphi said

It's a cool comic store, but full of what you'd expect in a comic store.

If you're close to Graham Crackers, you'll be close to the EL train, so the city is your oyster really. Head up to Clark and Belmont, go hit up The Alley, Ka POW, go grab some Kumas if you like gourmet burgers with names of metal bands, and then head up to Lincoln Square and Andersonville to check out some other toy stores
