Noted! Does anyone else have any thoughts on a "Notes" field for Haves and Wants?

(spent the day doing a TF live-action movie marathon instead (wife's idea but I couldn't say no, lol)) Still not 100% today but feeling much better than yesterday.

Get better, mate! And I have to say, it sounds like your wife's awesome. Not many women would suggest that =P

I think that it would be a good addition for the Wants since you could put down some info on pending offers you may be considering on a particular figure.

yes, but we have the pic of overlord's tank only as the pic being shown in the catalogue, when the full robot mode is the one i selected as the primary, why is that? i can upload a pic of the box if itr{s needed, but what about blind packed figures (eg. smallest) they all have the same box basically, so one pic would do them all, never liked the in package pics for these types of things, here or shmax

You're right! Thanks for reporting that, brr-icy. I've just fixed this. Eg:
http://shelflifex.com/catalogs/trans...od-masterforce

UPDATE: We prefer photos of the product sealed in its packaging. However, we plan to make this a configurable option within your account, so you'll be able to say "Screw Nick and James' preference, I want to see MLC photos!" =P

Also worth noting that in near future blind boxed figures will be represented as both their "potential" versions and opened versions so we'll have proper pics across the board.

After we submit catalogs for approval, can we still go back and make changes, or should we wait until you guys check it out?

I know (based on our emails) that I need to fix the Build-a-Figures in the DC section. Should I do it now, or just wait it out?

I have no idea what number is next, but I'd like to sign up

I think it is a great idea. If you don't want to use it, it stays blank. Otherwise, it conveys information that the catalog system can't. I would certainly use it on my figures to note irregularites or unusual wear.

Feel free to make the changes after submitting the catalog for approval.
