My wife is a member of a local "Mom's Facebook yard sale group."

She found these for me on there. Love 90's Toy Biz X-Men. Was thinking of selling or trading the Skeleton Warrior, but that dragon sidekick figure is sweet!

[peaces]

ahh, the correct versions of havok and polaris.

Great C3PO for $16, indeed. I can hardly see minuses you described

[Startaiger]

Better late than never, I suppose.

The more I own it the more I don't mind some of the missing articulation considering he's such a stiff droid most of the time in the movies. He can get into some tai chi Buddhist/Hindu looking stances though which is fun. I get why he doesn't have elbow articulation though since he has those pistons/sticks joining his upper and lower arms.

Purchases from today and the last few days :

I have no interest in that red-armed TFA 6" C-3PO, lol, so I was excited to finally find the Walgreens exclusive C-3PO !



Today was the grand opening of a new Think Geek store in my city, so I swung by and snagged a few Pops on sale.
Silver Surfer has been one of the missing cornerstones from my Marvel Pop collection, so I was glad to finally find him.

I absolutely abhor the new tradition of shopping on Thanksgiving day.

Lol, sorry if I sound self-righteous, but I grew up celebrating very traditional Thanksgivings in rural Georgia on my Aunt's farm, where we were far from any major shopping area, and the entire day was spent with family.
And, I hate how so many retail employees have to pretty much sacrifice their holiday to deal with crowds of crazed shoppers.

But anyways...
Those days of my traditional Thanksgivings are long over, and this year's festivities ended early, so I decided to set my principles aside, lol, and brave a local mall to snag Hot Topic's exclusive 2016 Black Friday BB-8 Pop.

Some EE droids I got off eBay -

Here are all of the purchases that I've gotten over the past couple of weeks. The one with the movies was from last night. I apologize about the sideways pics.

I had that Polaris. She was just Rogue repainted.

[Phantomcrow]

YeaHHHHHH, Skeleton Warriors!!! Those were some crazy sculpted figures for the time they were made. I still have a full set.

It's been kinda slow since Force Friday, I haven't found much I have actually "wanted" to buy.

So I just went back and filled out some stuff I had on the back burner. Finished Doomsday C&C which was annoying as my area is very short on Robin figures (every one I did come across had huge paint issues).

A new Go Calender's store opened in my local mall and I found a Ultimate Jason 6 figure, one I had seen a year prior but totally missed out on.

Director Krennick just popped up at Target on Black Friday so I picked him up, also saw TFA C-3PO and the new Trooper but I've already got the Walgreen's 3PO and am waiting to find the Walmart Shoretrooper before I get anymore common figures.

Bonus California Raisin from an estate sale that had entirely too much vintage Star Trek collectibles.

Nice man, I've seen a bunch of this wave all over here. Of course this is after my brother bought me the ones I wanted and hasn't shipped them to me yet.

Flea market finds today. Punisher was $20, Bane car was $3, and Shockwave was $20. Despite not having proper trigger fingers and the confusing choice of a plain white shotgun I am really glad to have this Punisher and still at retail price. I didn't get into the Transformers Animated line but as a fan of the character and someone who generally enjoyed the cartoon I decided to haggle for Shockwave and it is a pretty cool figure in hand.

[SpasticPlastic]

Went hunting for the NECA DC figures again, to no avail, but I was shocked and delighted to find and buy the new Mezco Pinhead. Man, that figure is fantastic! The head sculpt is superb.

That's actually a tommygun not a shotgun. That IS an odd color for a gun.

It is actually the Armsel Street Sweeper shotgun, a shotgun from South Africa more commonly known as the Striker.

The Thompson has not been done by Marvel Legends in its street sweeper, round drum form (although it was with the DCUC S3 Two-Face,) but has been done with it's standard issue 20 round magazine. That weapon came with the Ultimate Captain America 2 pack with Ultimate Nick Fury, and most recently with the Chameleon.

I stand corrected, I didn't even know they had shotguns like that thanks.

So after getting some good stuff at the flea market yesterday I found this guy at Wal-Mart while grocery shopping last night. I've always liked the original two triple formers so it's nice to finally have a good Astrotrain to go with the really cool Generations Blitzwing from a few years ago. In a surprise twist I actually like Astrotrain's train mode a lot more than his shuttle mode, it's just a much more unique transformation. Funny because you'd figure the space thing would be cooler than the track-bound thing.

Was in Atlanta the week before Thanksgiving and did a lot of hunting to catch up on the TF Headmasters and stuff.
