Man, you got that G1 Starscream for just $20?

I'll pay you $40 to sell it to me.

Super deals mate, well done.

Found the guardians today. I saw this IM too. I really like how bulky he is.

trebleshot · 11-11-2011, 08:22 PM

Well, this is a couple weeks worth, and shout-outs to CLASSIFIED and iLegends73 for the first two pics (minus the DOTM toy in the first pic) and Wal-Mart for the last one.

DOTM HA Sandstorm w/Private Dedcliff , G1 Wheeljack, Mirage and Hound.

ML War Machine, DCUC Azrael, MU X-Force 3-Pack Deadpool, MU CP Taskmaster.

PR Samurai Gold Ranger (Samurai version) and Hot Wheels A-Team Van.

Mac Gargan bonded with the Venom symbiote after Eddie finally rejected it once and for all. Dark Spider-Man was also Mac Venom. Can't say I really cared for him, either, but it finally make Venom a completely irredeemable villain instead of some anti-hero.

Excellent deal, man, defnitely. Ratchet and Ironhide were each ¥6000 ($79 USD) and Starscream was ¥2980 ($39 USD) when they were released at retail back in 2000/2001. That's not even including shipping or the price bump from an importer (like BBTS). The Prime reissue was about $35 IIRC and I'm not sure how complete Trypticon is, but based on the pic, he alone was probably worth what you paid for all of it.

Wow, awesome haul sir! You definitely got a deal on Prime, Starscream and Trypticon for FREE! Even though one of his claws is broke, I'm sure you can find a junker for cheap to swap it out and maybe any other parts I'm not seeing. Blame me? What did I do?

This older release of the Black Costume Spider-Man looks more in-line with what I can picture Spider-Man using as an accessory. The Venom figure looks like it has nice detailing on it.

I just bought him last week. It's an awesome Venom.

..and you can just not put the tail on.

That is a cool lookin' Venom. Is that the 6" line? May have to keep an eye out for one of those...

Found MK Scorpian at TRU yesterday. I saw the other set for $19.99 but it didn't look that great to me. In the words of Scorp.

"Get Over Here!!

Awesome pics, I'm liking that Scorpion figure more and more now... cept I WISH they made his spear attach to his open palm and either make the connecting chain piece plyable to be able to make dynamic poses or they could of made 1 straight piece, 1 weaving back and forth and another could of been a half spear just coming out! common haha, now I have to make all this awesomeness.

I saw the 6 pack at Toys R Us last night where they had at least 7. I'm not really into the video game toys so I thought nothing of it

tgbobafett · 11-12-2011, 11:38 AM

B&W Grimes!!! Looks like TrU dropped the price once again cuz now they cost only $16.99 each

Thank you. I got them from BBTS. I heard they've been hitting the shelves at Wally World recently. The forums here had a few sightings as well.
