The "Look At What I Just Got!" Thread

Couple of things to report- I just got the Sinestro package from the Eaglemoss Publications series of DC Superhero Collections (#28). Basically, these are lead-cast figurines with a colorful biography comic included. I have one for Dr. Doom as well.

Also, I completed my lantern T-shirt collection:

Another Sinestro Update: I picked up the Mattel JLU version of him, MIP. Normally, I could care less about packages, but I think on this one, I'm going to keep him in it.

ROTF RAVAGE! He makes a pretty spiffy Predator X.

Oh and I've had moonknight, torch and X-force wolvie from a previous bbts order too. Ravage I stumbled on at wally world trying to find any remaining jet twins two packs.

Ravage is awesome. Got him for Father's Day yesterday, along with Wheelie, MU Hobgoblin, and $20. I will probably use the money to pick up Skids and Mudflap, depending on what they're like in the movie. The robot modes are a little iffy, but I might overlook it if the characters are good.

You can always do what the rest of the fandom is lol, and just get the ICT version. xD

That's what I plan on doing anyway.

My newest haul today is just the Jet Twins. I've been putting it off forever, and today got the last one at TRU, so no more stock of them. =(
My animated collection is complete now minus Magnus and Wreckgar and if the new wave makes it shelves (I NEEEEEEEEEEDS ARCEE! Repaints too!).

Almost picked up the last pieces I need to finish my X-23 custom and a movie fallen, but needs moneys for tomorrow night. =D

I gotta say, the Jet Twins are more awesome than anyone has really let on. But I may be biased since one of my alltime favorite characters are the magnetic twins from inhumanoids too.

I've been looking for red and gray MU hulk for awhile now with no such luck. I got Hordak in the mail today. Will post pics later.

Oh, I'm getting the ICT version when it comes out, simply because it's the first Ice Cream truck Transformer (and a combiner of sorts). I might even get two, just to customize one into Twisted Metal's Sweet Tooth.

I also might get the individual deluxe versions of the twins as well, depending on how they are in the movie.

Yes, the Jet twins are great. One of my favorites of the whole line. And as far as the last wave of Animated is concerned, chances are they will end up at retail or HTS eventually. We've already seen painted prototypes and I think packaging. It's very rare for any toy that's reached that stage of production not to be released in some fashion.

It's more of a question of who will carry them and when they'll get released. Of course, there is always the possibility that this will be an exception to the rule.

I'm all for getting several of the ICT myself. Seeker brigade of baskin robbins. Since we never got the dewbot seeker brigade.

And yeah I hope they make it to shelves, but I'm also worried about scarcity. Cause I plan on picking up several Arcees, only one hot Rod, and maybe only one of the rest. Debating on skipping ratchet for Ironhide instead, but those Defib paddles rock.

Almost bought an Allspark Rubics cube today too at target, but I don't have that kind of money to waste, just yet.

trebleshot · 06-23-2009, 07:57 AM

I picked up an Allspark Rubic over the weekend. It's a nice mix of pop culture, but obviously no different from a regular Rubic's Cube.

I will say I had forgotten how entertaining and frustrating that damned cube is, especially when you come home after a night of drinking and fiddle with it for 10 minutes before you go to bed. XD

scarecrow · 06-25-2009, 02:22 PM

Finally got a new Gundam yesterday... A Gundam of one of my favorite characters from 00. Anyway, here's Dynames

Runamuck · 06-25-2009, 05:21 PM

G1 Slag. A little floppy, arms are tight, though. Has a little chrome wear too. Never had a G1 Slag, though, and he's always been my fave of the Dinobots!

Moose · 06-28-2009, 06:25 PM

The one toy I picked up from RoTF so far was Mixmaster. Man, what a bitch to transform. I might get the upcoming Devastator set, but for now, this is the only one that really interested me.

trebleshot · 06-29-2009, 06:50 AM

So far, I have almost every ROTF scout released, 1 voyager and 5 deluxes. To think I was only going to get one, maybe two.

As for what I got recently, I saw ROTF last Wednesday and bought the twins later that same evening. I thought they were hilarious in the movie. Also got Scalpel and HA Bumblebee (though haven't had a chance to open HA BB yet).

scarecrow · 07-01-2009, 11:02 PM

I went down to my local target tonight and found Shipwreck from ROC!

He, along with everyone but Duke, Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow were there(not even sure if they were in this wave). They only had one Shipwreck and he looked really cool to me. It's ironic because when I first saw him I hated him, but he came with a nice lot of accessories and I couldn't resist.

I hope to put up at least one photo by the end of the night.. He's surprisingly worth it.. A very cool figure. Anyone else been lucky enough to find ROC stuff yet?

I'm afraid that's how I'm going to be. I planned on not buy much from ROC but I don't know that plan will go once I see them in person. I might not be able to resist either.

scarecrow · 07-02-2009, 02:19 AM

Yeah... I'm mainly sticking to Snake-Eyes for the Joes... And the repaint of Beachhead and the other visually appealing repaints.

Some Cobra figures look pretty cool though. The Destro with the Nazi-esque suit looks very awesome, and the Neo Vipers are starting to grow on me. The Cobra that drives the truck/van thing is amazing.

EDIT: Here's Shipwreck with Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes

MegaPrime33 · 07-05-2009, 11:29 AM

Finally nabbed me a MU Red Hulk.

Runamuck · 07-05-2009, 01:34 PM

scarecrow · 07-05-2009, 01:56 PM

Man, I want that Firefly. Is that out in stores yet? Or did you get it off ebay?

Runamuck · 07-05-2009, 01:58 PM

It's in stores. Came out with everything else yesterday. He's a TRU Exclusive along with Barbebue. They come in their own cases too, 6 of each one, so there should be plenty.

scarecrow · 07-05-2009, 02:01 PM

Ahhhh, I went to TRU yesterday and saw neither of those. Is Deep Six an exclusive as well? I saw him but couldn't justify buying it.

Nope, he's part of Wave 2 C1 or C2...I have no idea...how these damn assortments are put out now. I just know he's part of Wave 2.
