One of my Targets got in their Fall Clearance Runway for Marvel and GI Joe with the Banner/Gray Hulk 2 pack, Monica/Doom, Thor/Destroyer, Hawkeye with cycle, first appearance Iron Man, movie Ant-Man, Karnak, the Iron Man from that Hulk BAF wave, Spider-Woman, purple Prowler looking Spider-man, all of the kiddie X-Men 97 stuff, Rock n Roll, Scrap Iron, Shipwreck, Python Cobra Soldiers, TF Dusty, Copperhead, and Torpedo. No Snow Job, Serpents, or Eels though.

Eels were an Amazon exclusive and Snow Job was a Pulse exclusive, I believe.

I picked up Shipwreck the other day. His ankle peg snapped like a corn chip. I still need to return him.

Also, in my area at least, Walmart has Shipwreck and Rock N' Roll ~$21 instead of $24.99 like Target and Pulse.

My Walmarts still have Lady Jaye and the movie figures.

My Eel arrived this morning (Amazon), and this is his harpoon gun. It's so comically warped I almost don't want to fix it.

JESUS! It's like it was rolled in a ball then packaged. LOL

My Eel's harpoon gun has some curving to it, but no where near as bad as that. They should of wrapped it in cardboard like they have done with some of Sgt. Slaughter's accessories and the swords in the blue ninja pack.

Drop it in a container filled with boiled water for 1 minute. Remove the gun and flex it while it cools. It only take about a minute. The gun will straighten out perfectly. You can do this with any Classified weapon. Package warp isn't a big deal because plastic has "mold memory".

What is the recipe, besides the obvious Infinity War Natasha head?

The belt and arms are from the retro card Lady Jaye and everything else is movie Scarlett

Bubble boy is here.

That's a well thought out stand. Fantastic range. Any chance you will be selling an all white version? I'd like to purchase one.

I think the Trubble Bubble needs foot plates/supports/rests of some kind. I get the original didn't have them but, it seems a strange omission for the revised design. Feet just dangling from the bottom of a fast moving flying vehicle is weird.

I got Tunnel Rat in the mail today from Amazon. Overall it's a nice figure, but I am surprised that they didn't use the shoulders with the deep grooves that allowed the arms to swing up higher. His machine gun is slightly warped, so it'll have to be heated and straightened (which I feel like I shouldn't have to do). My only complaint is that I wish that the night vision goggles would of been a separate piece from the head gear so it could hinge up and down. Like what Hasbro did with the Rise of Cobra Duke figure that had goggles on his helmet. I mean if they could do it 14 years ago at a smaller scale I don't see why they couldn't do it now.

Oh yeah and the Trouble Bubble is nice but has manufacturing problems. Like the pegs for the bubble not lining up with the holes in the base. But I am glad I have it. It's such a dumb but fun vehicle.

Tunnel Rat arrived today.



Seems pretty cool, but I wish there was a place to store his goggles, especially given how big his bag is. Surely they could have put some sort of tab to stick them in, right?

I wish the backpacks, especially the larger ones, were all hollow and could tab open or something. Even if they just pegged together. Seems it would take very little added tooling.

Went to four Targets that were on our pathway to home tonight. First one had all of the Avengers multipacks on clearance for 50% off, but they did not have Hawkeye (nor Scrap Iron for GI Joe). Second Target was the same, but for GI Joe they had Shipwreck for 50% off and Rock n Roll for 25%. Third Target had everything instock, but none of them were on clearance. Fourth Target had 2 Hawkeyes and 1 Scrap-Iron. Oh, and two of those Targets had the new Black Widow for 50% off as well. The Target with all of those Indiana Jones figures I posted a few days ago also had all of them for 50% off, so I decided to grab myself an Indy.

Oh, and that fourth one had Shipwreck for 50% off along with a tag for Rock n Roll at that price, but no RnRs were left.

[firmpulse]

A lot of the Targets around me have Grunt in stock. But the best part is the price. Obviously a mistake. So y'all take advantage of the error.

I would, but I walked in Target yesterday just as someone was walking to the register with 4 Grunts. The fact that he's meant to be an army builder doesn't help.

Honestly though, I would have done the same if I got there 1 minute sooner. So it's all fair.

I preordered Shockwave, Ripper, Buzzer, and Hawk from Amazon.

The reveals today were mixed for me. Some are awesome, some I don't need, and some I'm like, "That's cool I guess."

Don't care about Big Boa or Metal Head, but they do look pretty cool.

Mad about Airborne because he renders my Dragonfly one obsolete. I mean, we all knew they would do a regular version given the one with the Dragonfly is a Night Force version, but they should have waited until AFTER the Dragonfly was shipped next year to do him.

The new Scarlet does look spectacular, but I have to say I think the original Duke is better. Not the colors mind you, but I feel like the older one has better gear and a superior headsculpt. This new Duke doesn't even look like he has a scar on his face. This looks like, "The Origin Story" version of Duke. If I get him, it will be for the pinless joints and color scheme.

At first, I thought Quick Kick was just a repainted Shang-Chi, but nope, it's a new figure. :lol

I might pick Junkyard up, but I'll probably wait for a sale. Same goes for Recondo, who I would probably only buy when Target puts him 50% off.

Is the Crimson Strike Team set $30 per figure or $90 for red Baroness with free twins?

[Veronica Mars]

Been a good week

Snowjob is a solid figure

My Mindbender has the stains on the shoulders (not removable with acetone) and his cape(?) Doesn't feel as good quality as Serpentor's
