my "Thursday after Force-Friday" pick-ups.

I had to move my TV and entertainment center yesterday and THIS was behind it. I chuckled at it because i have no idea what this is or how it got back there.

First part: Nice, I was certainly happy to find both of those on the day after Force-Friday. I had to compare through a few Thrawns to find one with mostly clean paint, his uniform being white makes little thing stand out.

Second part: LOL wut?

Picked up the Batman Animated Series Rogue's Gallery set this week. I go it for 30$ off MSRP and used a whole bunch of store credit at my local Vintage Stock. But really if you think 25$ per figure, I only payed 20$ more for the light up box, soooo not that bad really.

Each cell has on overhead light in it that is a different color for each character.

Each cell cardboard has differences also. Snow, Vines, Scratches, and punch marks.

No skimping on the accessories here...

Really like the classic Ivy ( she even has her little arm bow) but the prize to me is classic Freeze!!

Freeze even comes with his snow globe. I was able to get the pieces apart so I will be able to paint the dancer inside properly.

Is that a "Homie"? I think it is, anyway.

i just googled that and...




lol...Hilarious....where the fugg did these things come from..and how do you even know about them...

*edit*...AND WHY WAS ONE IN MY HOUSE..HAHA..

[SpasticPlastic]

This was in 2002, or somewhere around. I believe i first saw them in a grocery store. They were in one of those little toy machines. Came in little bubbles. I bought quite a few of them, maybe 20. If memory serves, they then went on to become slightly popular and you could order all kinds of stuff from their website. Carrying cases, vehicles, etc. I quickly lost interest, though. Not sure if they are still around or whatever became of them.

I actually remember those now! I thought that little thing looked familiar. I also remember one time on the Venture bros Dr Orpheus used one to trap somebody's soul in or at least he referenced the act.

Wow, very nice!! I mellowed out on the TAS figures after the Christmas Joker and Expressions Batman. I even saw BBTS had discounted this set the other day to $140 w/ bonus commissioner but it still wasn't on my radar. Have to say though you got me pulling the trigger on it - that box is too damn sweet!

Went back out over weekend to find more Force Friday stuff but no exclusives at GS or Walgreens, did pick up the Silencer and while out hunting finally found a Thrall and picked up Reaper plus added several duplicate NF Knights Legends that not going to picture again - as said before TRU shorted the SW merch but restocked a lot of others so added another Cyclops Phoenix and SM Mary Jane Legends two pack as well. Hoping to find Last Jedi 2nd wave and a Sphero R2 to complete my bot set this weekend.

Awesome!!

My two fave figures from the new wave!!!

[Riddick]

Got my Jinn from CDJapan yesterday.

Love the figure. Great sculpt, paint and articulation as usual. Just another winner from Figuarts!

Also got Neca Resident Evil Hunk from a friend for 5 bucks. Used the Hot Toys Ada Wong's Virus case with him. It's perfect scale for him, even looks like the game art from Racoon City.

You mean finding Qui Gon? My nearest Gamestop has 6 of him and my nearest Vintage Stock has 3 of him just sitting there.

If you are worried about finding Black series Last Jedi wave 2 , You can Pre Order the whole wave at Gamestop online or in store if you don't mind the couple bucks extra for each. I pre ordered all 5, an extra Praetorian Guard, the Snoke w/throne, and 2 of the Guardians of Evil 4 packs, as well as the Battlefront exclusive Tie Pilot. They seem to be about the only place to pre order the figure singles and not have to get the whole case.

In my experience Lando and Qui Gon are very easy to find but only at Gamestop and Thinkgeek because until now with the new force Friday push all the other stores were still sitting on RO junk.

[Augustus_Cole]

i've only seen the Qui's in ONE gamestop...and there were about 5 of them at the time.
it was that time..and never again..
i don't see him anywhere near me...

As an added bonus I was able to round out the set with Ecto 1 And Ecto 2. I really hope that in the future there will be more of these types of figures show up at the Dollar Store as it's a crazy good value. Lastly I had to pick up another Captain America for the final missing Onslaught BAF piece; I really hate having to buy it again, but I'll just display him with the wolf head.

At those prices, I definitely need to complete my Mattel GB set !

Which dollar store did you find them at ? Here in GA, we have Dollar General, Dollar Tree, and Family Dollar, among others.

Still full price currently.

Weekend haul , got from different sellers

[Early Cuyler]

Nice! I love that Macho Man, but I wish his trunks were more the shade of pink he wore and not lilac. Mattel cannot figure out purple and pink. They did it with a HHH and New Day figures too.

[Riddick]

Got a cool 1/12 scale money briefcase.

Punisher is taking from the Mob and he's ready to buy some more guns!

I was hoping and praying that another weekend wouldn't go by without Boss Fight Series 2 figures arriving. Finally two of them showed up!

I had an order from 3 different online stores and finally one order arrived.





If feels like these suckers have been on order for so long. The quality is still amazing and I'm really enjoying Series 2 already.

...I just need to find a proper place to display them. I'm totally out of room.

[tgbobafett]

Not a toy but i bought one of these cool ass Soundwave comic book boxes for about $9 from a comic/game store up in the Dallas area this week!

Man, these pictures make me wish we could get a brand new fully posseable, 100% cartoon accurate Gargoyles toyline.

IKR but as long as you keep it in the box no one is going notice that
