Stopped at Walmart and happened to see 27x six pack sets of Flash, Cyborg, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and Batman on a sale shelf. Scanned the barcode with the app, came up $5.

Told Spectre and he said they were $.83 each. I grabbed a set then found the cardboard shelves with Christmas stocking type toys. Saw the Spinmaster single card DC figures and went back to get 3x more 6 packs. Also snagged 5x Lex Luthor figures.

Stopped at Ollie's and snagged a 50th Anniversary Luke Skywalker (Endor) at 20% off.



Oh, and Ollie's is having the annual Ollie's Night next Sunday. 25% off toys and usually 15% off everything else.

Yeah, the app said in store those Spinmaster six packs were $5, but online they were $14.88.

Register said $14.88 and I said, "Nuh-uhhh...'

I had the cashier look at it to prove it wasn't $5 online and $14.88 in store...

Found Fortnite's Agent Jones this weekend. Another neat figure.

There are a few superhero characters I wouldn't mind making using some of the bodies from that pack. I haven't purchased it as a) it isn't available in my area and b) it damn sure wouldn't be that price if so. At $5 I'd have cleared the shelf of every set except 1.

Was this the pack you were referring to?

What I want to know is—if they were going for an approximation of the New 52 lineup, then A) why didn’t they use short-hair Aquaman, and B) where the heck is Green Lantern?

I'd have bought the set if Green Lantern were included.

As it stands i bought Green Lantern by himself. I could have used the Superman body.

I bought two of them for the Toys for Tots bin up front in the store. That is a great deal and some kids are going to have a blast with those.

I got the Skeletron skateboard, originally an Assembly Required item. I have a Classified BAT doing an ollie on it (with the help of a megaconstrux stand).

Got Classified Zarana today. I never cared for the character or the figures, but this might just make me a fan - really well-done.

Spectre clued me in earlier that several Marvel Retro figures were on clearance on the Gamestop website. I had checked before, but for the past few weeks nothing on clearance was available for delivery.

3x Marvel Retro Black Panther (fodder)
Marvel Retro Elektra (fodder)
Marvel Retro Mr. Fantastic (fodder-possible non flame Johnny Storm)
Marvel Retro Dark Phonix (fodder)
3x Marvel Retro Wolverine (fodder-possible various suit colors)
Marvel Retro Storm (fodder-possible Jabba's Palace/Sail Barge scenefiller)
Marvel Retro Carol Danvers (fodder)
Star Wars Fallen Order Scout Trooper (collection)
Star Wars Vintage Collection Greef Karga (collection)
Star Wars Retro Mando IG-11 (collection)

I’m sure I’m missing something from my latest hauls but here’s what I took pics of today

I had a table at a toy show yesterday and sadly it was a bust. I didn’t even break even. I did however do a trade. I traded one of my custom Battle Beast Cobra Commanders for 7 loose BB so I have a bunch of custom fodder.

Image

My local Warhammer store does a Secret Santa every year and I signed up again this year. All I really want are paints, brushes, and supplies but store rules say you have to pick other stuff too. I got everything from my list

Image

I had an Entertainment Earth box randomly show up. I forgot I had pre-ordered these. I now have 2 of Dusty and Zarana. This is my first Crimson Guard and WOW this might be the best Classified figure to date. I’ll be posting a video of it soon

Image

I’ve actually gotten a lot of the Classified figures lately; 2 PP Bats, 2 PP Vipers, Slaughter, Serpentor, and others. For a line I thought I’d never collect I sure am collecting them

I also got two new workbenches for my garage workshop. I’ve gotta set them up and move my printers onto them, right now my printers are on a plastic folding table

SO many boxes coming in the last few weeks. Hasbro Pulse preorders, Amazon preorders, Target preorders, Gamestop preorders, Sideshow orders arriving… the cardboard fort I could have built from all the boxes would have been EPIC.

Relevant to this group are…

G.I. Joe Classified Tiger Force Outback, Python Patrol B.A.T.s and Vipers, Serpentor w/ Air Chariot, Sgt. Slaughter, Kamakura and more Crimson Guard figures.

Star Wars Black Series NED-B, blue shirt Obi-wan, Andor Ferrix Imperial
Officer and Shoretroopers, Vintage Collection Obi-wan series Amazon 3-pack with Jawa Teeka, Purge Trooper and blue shirt Obi-wan that is unfortunately built on the same body as the wide release tan figure with the stubby lower legs. Preordered 3 sets but only opened 1 of the Obi-wan figures due to the leg issue. Purge Trooper and Jawa are decent but not worth the inflated exclusive price.

Power Rangers Lightning Collection Street Fighter Ryu and Chun-Li Morphed figures, MMPR Snizzard, Time Force Blue Ranger with Vector Cycle

Got some good deals from Pulse over the Thanksgiving holiday including some stuff I thought I had preordered but actually didn’t. Black Series Trapper Wolf helmet, Saw Gerrera, Comic inspired Leia and Darth Vader and Sgt. Kreel

Hasbro Ghostbusters Neutrona Wand replica showed up. I have a friend that has an extra HasLab Proton Pack that I’m going to get. Gonna be busting ghosts next year.

Marvel Legends retro carded Scorpion and Ghost Rider

Plus a whole slew of stuff from BBTS including some armybuilding SWTVC figures, Mythic Legions figures and accessories, 30 Minute Mission sets and some other stuff I’m forgetting.

AND there is more coming. Seriously, all the preorders that were said to be shipping next year are dropping now.

Best I could come up with for a few of your Marvel Retro fodder customs are:

-X-Men: Evolution costume and Astonishing X-Men costume Wolverine
-Original red-and-black costume Carol Danvers/Moonstone-as-Ms. Marvel
-'White Phoenix of the Crown' Jean Grey

I have a few other Marvel Retro figures as fodder already ,(Elektra, Loki, Electro, etc).

Thought about the black suit Elektra, white suit Elektra, black/red suit Elektra, 90s Psylocke...

For Wolverine the classic blue/yellow, black & gray, Fang, X-Men Evolution cartoon, X-Uniform (90s Blue and Gold teams).
