Damn. Where do you get your money to be able to spend this much?!

Optimus Scourge · 12-22-2008, 01:20 PM

What? A rub symbol? I thought you only did pre rub AFA tfs?

Based on his avi, I'm thinking Soundwave is an exception to the rule.

Very nice, DL2W. I just want to crack that case open and free them both. Of course, that's one reason why I don't generally collect MOSC or MISB - I have a hard time letting them remain sealed.

The Christmas presents start early! I got a call from my girlfriend telling me she was going to get my mom a present from the antique store, and that she had found something for me. I thought it was going to be something lame but when she got here she handed me this:

ACK! I know it's not MOC or anything but next to Snake-Eyes, Beachhead is my favorite Joe, and I've never had the original version of anything being a 90's kid and all. I'm totally stoked about this. My girlfriend rocks

It's joints are very tight, it's not complete but his gun came with it(pictured above) and I guess it was only $18. Awesome way to start off this Christmas!

NICE! That is awesome, dude, that is my favorite version of him, as well, although, I don't have any of my vintage 'Joes, anymore

I do have that version 25th style from the comic 2 pack, He is my new default Beachhead. I have heard a few people not like it, I love it, myself.

scarecrow · 12-24-2008, 09:03 PM

I just got the 25th Comic pack from her too

I'm really digging the more classic 25th
Beachhead, but the Wave 3 one is still one of my favorite figures in the whole line.

I also got some other really cool stuff, so I'll be posting when I get time!

scarecrow · 12-24-2008, 09:27 PM

First off I just gotta say I am so blessed to be twenty years old and my family is still willing to aid my habit. Not to mention my awesome girlfriend who supports it as well. Anyway, I got a big haul, probably the last. Sorry in advance for the less than aesthetic photos

My dad picked these up, more for the army-building.

More army builders! Duke-wrist hell! But I love the blue Firefly.

I started this with Beachhead, and I might as well end the Joe section with Beachhead. It's a damn slick figure, as Optimus Scourge mentioned. Mainframe is pretty neat too.

I've been collecting Castle since my wee days... and I haven't had a set this big in awhile. Awesome! Love the troll

I was distraught when I saw that the only figure left by the ravens here from the Red Hulk wave was Wolverine... Fortunately I got the figure I wanted most.

Finally, here is one of my favorite Gundams. I've been wanting this guy for some time now and finally have him.

What a haul. I hope everyone's Christmas is as good as mine has been. It's been great not only because I got a lot of good stuff, but I was also financially stable enough to get my friends and family things as well, and that feels great. I got a little something of everything, and it all added to pure awesome! God bless

That's just wow. So impressive! Thank you for sharing

This is our Christmas (toy) haul, kids and mine combined.

(I have noticed there's highs & lows thread up here as well. If this is more appropriate for that thread, I'm sorry.)

trebleshot · 12-26-2008, 08:25 PM

Nice haul, scarecrow.

As for me, most of my stuff revolved around a new DS and accessories, but I did get a few new toys to add to the collection (pics forthcoming):

Joes:
25th HISS Tank w/HISS Commander
25th HISS Driver (my second so I can have him drive the HISS)

Transformers:
Universe Hound w/Ravage
Titanium 6" WWI Grimlock
Titanium 6" WWI Prowl

I got my girlfriend a DS for Christmas... So I basically got three games

(the ones she got). I really got nothing other than these toys though heh

How is the Titanium Grimlock? It looked very cool but I wasn't down with the alt. mode. The Prowl looked cool as well.

P.S. Awesome for all you guys who got cool stuff. I can't wait till I have kids so I can enjoy Christmas with them like you got to SydneyY. Well, I can wait, but you know what I mean

Optimus Scourge · 12-26-2008, 08:55 PM

I got goodness from HTS, my Cyclonus, Hound, G1 Starscream, Inferno and the G1 legends.

Also got some GI Joe stuff, couple BATs, a HISS driver, Black Destro comic pack to name a few.

My wife got me a remote car starter this year instead of toys, I live in New England, so that trumps just about any toy

trebleshot · 12-26-2008, 09:48 PM

I've thought about getting a remote car starter for my wife (and possibly one for me). Though, Ohio weather can be so unpredicable, so I'm still undecided on the matter. Monday we had snow, but tomorrow it's supposed to be 60 degrees F. It feels like Spring outside (rain included).

Apparently, this state doesn't give a fig what season the calendar says it's supposed to be. XD

Grimlock and Prowl are pretty nice, as Titaniums go (I'm only missing four). I actually prefer Prowl, oddly enough.

I like Grimlock's robot mode and the way his weapons are incorporated into his alt mode, but I wish he had lateral shoulder movement (out to the sides). I also wish his upper chest piece would lock into his alt mode "cab" halves instead of sitting on top.

For Prowl, my only complaint is that he doesn't come with a handheld weapon (his fists are molded closed, so he can't even hold someone else's).

I know this is a little late and kinda off topic now but what the heck...

The claw attachment will clip around the small yellow thing hanging off his belt on his right side. Just close the claw around that and it hangs perfectly for a 2 handed, gun toting BAT. Wish I had a pic...
