Found something interesting at Dollar Tree today.

I don't actively collect SW figures, but $1 each for decent Vader and Stormtrooper figures is hard to resist. They had a bunch of other Rogue One figures, not just these two.

Taeyang Nosferatu

This is one suave vampire!

Yeah our dollar stores got these in too. The rogue 1 line did not sell too well (and then worse for TLJ)

Dang! That really sucks. Granted, a lot of my MotU figures from my childhood ended up that way, but not right out of the package!

Anyway, my latest figma:

Fate/Apocrypha Saber of "Red" (Mordred)

# ihas a large box

Got my hands on a used SOC Gunbuster (GX-34) via Mandarake. Considering the high price of the figure on eBay, I think I got it for a pretty good price. Got it for under $200 including EMS shipping. The box was slightly beat up, but other than a few of the soft rubber pieces bent a little out of shape, the figure is in great condition. The figure is pretty great, probably my 2nd fav SOC after Voltron. I'm not familiar with the anime but now I have to go watch it.

Got Marvel Legends Ebony Maw. He is becoming ridiculously hard to find. I really hope they rerelase a black obsidian figure eventually, not gonna do the BAF thing with him.

Congrats on getting Mr Creepy, Will!
Are you going to build that Thanos?

Not a big deal but worth posting anyhow.

Got myself a nice custom Pullip mini and a cheap Hatsune Miku figure. That Miku is quite sexy but she make a bit of a derp face. Still look nice.

I think one of those red guard would make short work of any Jedi. :-?

Okay, here's mine.
To enjoy the 10$ off a 60$ purchase coupon, I bought my Siege Hound and two Hairdorables dolls to try them out.

Before I reveal what's inside those boxes, please watch this short classic commercial:

And now, here's what it took to pack two scout/legend sized dolls:

18$ each. At least 10$ of that 18 could have been saved by not overpacking and skipping on the sticker sheets. But now just look at that sad display.

Overpriced, and VULGARILY overpacked. This is what the Hairdorables are.
Avoid.

Fortunately it wasn't strictly necessary for the Samurai Gigazord/Samurai Ha-Oh:

I also finally jumped down the Figuarts rabbit hole:

(Not all of regular Red and Gold's accessories shown).

That's quite a lot!
Or is it, quite some lots?

Thu Jun 20, 2019 4:56 am

Took a chance on seeing what your reply was.

It's multiple lots (and Target hauls in the case of the 35th anniversary MLP stuff). Each entry in the list is a separate purchase.
The Shinken-Oh + Daikai-Oh + Ika Origami lot was a great score - I won it for $40 (plus $15 for shipping). And I got the Kabuto + Tora + Kajiki lot for $34 plus $25 shipping.

Oh yeah, you are that over sensitive guy who take everything on personal level.

Hah! As expected, only weirdos can get into girly stuff.

....wait...

On a serious note, those Power Ranger hauls were indeed great catches!
Didn't knew some G1 Ponies had "glass" eyes. Interesting.

Thu Jun 20, 2019 9:51 pm

Yeah, a lot of the foals had fancy blinking eyes rather than painted ones. They were called Beddy-Bye Eye Baby Ponies. Most collectors shorten it to BBE. It's rare for the irises to get dislodged - mine was the first instance people I asked had heard of.

Oh! I forgot to mention a couple of things: The Shogun Megazord's blasted helmet, and the weapons for the Black and Pink/White Shogunzords! EDIT: And the handle for the Power Staff.

Very nice to get the damn accessories. Those are a racket on Ebay.
Also, in my personal opinion, I always found "glass" eyes on dolls to be WAY superior than painted ones. This give a "soul" to the doll.

On my end, most of my budget went to non-TF stuff lately so my "waiting room" is pretty full. Got something epic coming soon, but I fear that the custom charges will be epic as well...
