The "Look At What I Just Got!" Thread

What I like about the Pops is that as somewhat caricatures they really capture the essential attributes for geeks lol.

The store has a ton of cool stuff but they seem to sell half of it above even MSRP (which no one pays). They wanted to fail. Hopefully the sales will be huge.

their facebook page just posted that everything is 30% off now!!

BUT I managed to snag some good deals. The Sarah Connor and Tom Petty figures I posted earlier this week were less than $10 each, the Teen Titans Blu-Ray (with Damien figure) was only $12, and I scored about 10 ReAction figures for about $3 or $4 each. As much as I like that line, $10 is far too much to pay, IMO, but I can rationalize $3 or $4 for them.

I paid like $15 for my Tom Petty Simpson's figure, but i didnt want to miss out, so i grabbed it up! heh it sucks that they never did much price matching over the years...I remember one time seeing a game i wanted that was down to maybe $20 everywhere else, but hastings still had it for about $60!! damn shame! the manager of the one by me said they have a warehouse full of stuff somewhere or another, so maybe they'll find some awesome gems as far as toys and such goes that are hard to find nowadays lol

Does this include the website, too? Ive been buying tons of figures through them, since their price (until recently) was great.

EDIT: Just went to the site and there's nothing there, but a Going Out Of Business page. Sucks. I had 31 figures in my shopping cart yesterday I was going to get today.

YAZ..Before I was collecting Legends, I bought that Giant Man and stuck him with 3.75 Collection...and that's where he'll stay.

I've bought a ton of cool stuff at marshals. Last night they had legends 6", 3.75" (singles and 2 packs) and combiner wars transformers. They also have these comic book 5 packs for $5. They had the 5th part of "a lonely place of dying" which used to be a really hard TPB (or graphic novel) to track down. I typically have to look around and scan the toy section two or three times to spot something tho as its not a typical toy aisle. Check it out when you got time DarkToyLord (hopefully you no longer dislike me lol)

En Sabah Nerd · 07-23-2016, 09:47 PM

I didn't even know this burnt Stay Puft was a thing until I found it tonight I thought the only Wal-Mart exclusives were the original 4 members.

For any of you that may have been collecting Disney Infinity Characters (the now defunct line)..a Walmart I was in yesterday had every figure (marvel, star wars, disney) for $5.00 a pop. I bought the 3.0 Star Wars infinity game (with two characters) for the Wii U for 20.00 for my nieces.

Also found this antman finally:

CxGVoodooDoll · 07-24-2016, 12:40 PM

Found this at my LCS today. I might send this in to get graded.

Wouldn't this be considered Deadpool's "ROOKIE" for figures?

Dr Kain · 07-24-2016, 02:42 PM

I used to have that Deadpool toy. Hated the hand with the knife molded into it.

Made it absolutely pointless for him to have two daggers.

Hmmm. Interesting. Lol. I just realized that and I even watched a couple YouTube videos on it...

Found these guys earlier in the week.
Prehapes $7 or so dollars too much for what they are, but the spidey is a fantastic figure never the less.

I've actually had cap longer but returned him for one in store that didn't have mongoliod derp eyes painted on to him

Lazer · 07-25-2016, 01:57 AM

I like me some ninja turtles, didn't pick up the original classic movie versions so the ooze ones will have to do.

I own the original Neca turtles, fighting to keep Leonardo's swords from snapping in half is becoming a pain so I like a low maintenance set.

I had that Deadpool as a kid, and if memory serves, he had scabbards/sheaths on his back to hold the swords, so I always assumed he had an extra sword to store on his back, for aesthetic purposes, to give him that overly-armed look he's known for.

EDIT :
Oops, yeah, just saw the pics of the back of the card, and he can definitely store his swords on his back.
