Never knew this existed before your post. Here's an example of British Racing Green. Man, how bad did I want an MGB-GT. Maybe my next life. Exactly. Both greens are legendary. I always wanted a British racing green Jaguar XK-E type as a kid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggs Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 As long as the Uniform and helmet is white, I'm good. Green pants should never be an option, ever. The 80's helmet sucked. The only redeeming quality of them was the color didn't match and whenever our OL or DL lined up it was obvious. It sort of had a campy feeling about them not matching.

Very rare to find someone else whose favorite character is Moon Knight. Good friend of mine turned me on to him about 12 years ago and he's been my collecting focus ever since, knocking Punisher, Spidey, and Ghost Rider out of the lime light. The Lemire and Ellis runs are particularly magnificent. I have nearly every MK book. Nearly every Thanos Book. Huge fan of Swamp thing and anything Alan Moore. My disposable income has always lagged behind my collecting goals and I have had to make some tough choices (see: no ASM 129 or MS 5 on my wall) Would love to get some of my other gems graded like my ASM 300, NM Demon #1, NM Swamp thing 37 but the year long turnaround time at CGC is too much to deal with. I was worried about the MK show coming out. They definitely made him way too OP and added too much Egyptian God Magic into his repertoire than there should have been but I get it in terms of needs for the show and the MCU. I just made sure to separate the books and the show in my mind as much as possible. My biggest worry was too much Steven Grant and a lack of Jake Lockley... that was assuaged by the end. We could pick it apart but I decided to let it be what it was and enjoy it as much as possible. Kind of like the Jets . I thought Oscar Isaac was a great pick and did an excellent job... Ethan Hawke was a nice touch as well. Here's to us turning this place into the CGC boards for a brief moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE BARON Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 The new uniforms are horrible, especially the black ones. We dont need another Oakland Radiers uniform. The Jets should only have one uniform that would ever be in consideration. The legacy uniforms. Totally Jets and one of the sharpest, most "professional" looking uniforms in league history. Especially, the all whites. Clean, sharp & serious. Go back to the real Jet unis. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitonti Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 8 hours ago, Chrebetfan80 said: Everyone needs to settle down about it because these uniforms as a whole are not going anywhere for a while. A lot of fans may hate them, but the team just changed them and realistically couldnt redo them for another few years I believe. However, youd be surprised what a difference just a small easy change could make. If someone was good at photoshop, take the current uniforms and just swap in a white facemask instead of the black we have in right now. In my opinion makes the uniform look better instantly. this is the correct answer OP asks "Can we reopen the discussion?" the answer is NO Chris Johnson aka "the genius" made this call in 2019 or whatever and the league has a 5 year limit in between uniform changes they could add an alt-uniform but the main uniforms cannot be changed more frequently than every 5 years I know it was you Chris you broke my heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a copy that's ungraded, found it for 15 bucks, so not nearly as nice as your copy. I like the non mainstream characters, Moon Knight, Darkhawk, Nova, Jack of Hearts, and Iron Fist. Actually own an entire run of the original Deadly Hands of Kung Fu. DC was less of a focus for me but generally love Mister Miracle, Lobo, Hawkman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Miracles FA was always on my list but I've kept putting it off and now it actully costs a few hundred bucks in decent grade SS3 has gotten completely out of reach, Having little kids has really eaten into my book budget. Lobo is fun I have his FA as well.
