I didn't know anything about that until you posted. Didn't have Fury yet, so figured it was worth getting the limited edition version today.



Man, all these Infinity figures take up so much space, it's a little ridiculous.

I did not know anything about it until I saw it in the Sunday Best Buy weekly ad. I had never gotten Fury either. I figured the case was worth the few extra bucks. There is also a Gamestop Exclusive Rocket Raccoon the same way that is due out soon. He has a blue base and a space background.

Oh and google up Disney Infinity Dispaly and you can see some really nice wall display shelves people have built. I like a lot of the custom printed backgrounds to go in the cases and the Broken Wreck it Ralph one is pretty cool. I have about 50 of the display cases with the red bases from when TRU clearenced them out. Got down to about (90% off) $1.50 per box of 3 , so I bought about 20 boxes :-)

Crap. I just bought Rocket recently, too. Oh well.

I remember those display cases being on clearance. I'm kicking myself now for ignoring it, but I had no interest in Disney Infinity at the time. I didn't know about 2.0/Marvel Heroes yet. D'oh!

[flipwilson]

I picked up Captain Marvel, Scarlet Witch, and Machine Man today at target. I think out of that whole series, I'm most excited about machine man. I just finished up reading paradise x and the rest of the x series with him taking the watcher's place and it's just such a whacked out and great storyline.

[Trivial Psychic]

I finally gave into the dark side (or in this case...would it be the light?) and picked up Yoda after running into him again at Walgreens. I really do like him though, despite my earlier complaints...although, at 20 bucks, would it have been too much to ask for a bicep swivel? What I wouldn't give to have him be able to hold the cane in his classic two handed pose...

[Phantomcrow]

I saw a couple Machine Man yesterday, but both had terrible face paint apps so I had to pass. Passed on the first Sentry I saw, it had some pretty major paint mistakes, but the second one I found was near perfect, even the yellow highlight is spot on, can barely tell there are two shades on him so I grabbed him. Also grabbed a Hawkeye. I will grab the other 3 later. (got Witch and Marvel from TRU online monday)

[Frank Richards]

Although I typically don't care for Funko's Pop Vinyls, I knew that at some point I would give in and pick up at least a couple.
I'm so excited about "Better Call Saul" premiering this weekend, that when I saw these two Breaking Bad Pop Vinyls, I had to have them.



And, my box of Bandai Tamashii Stage Act.5 figure stands, that I ordered from Amazon, showed up today. I'm going to be posing figures in these things all night

[Trivial Psychic]

With Valentine's Day falling on a Friday the 13th weekend this year, my GF got me a nice little Valentine's present a little early (the two Jason's on the right, as well as the loose Tiny Terror, which she said was given to her as a gift from her ebay seller) while I finally filled out some holes in my collection with some tax return cash (the boxed Tiny Terror, which came in a lot with the Cinema of Fear Jason, not knowing she already had one on the way. It's cool though, as hers was a bloody washed variant...)

[En Sabah Nerd]

That Tiny Terrors Jason is adorable. Like how Star Wars had galactic heroes or Marvel had super hero squad, but little horror guys.

I wasn't sure about Viper but I saw him in my LCS a couple of weeks ago and thought he looked great so picked him up. His mask is a absolutely brilliant! So much detail!

How dare you spoil his fun! Though I have heard of some people calling it Valentine's weekend this year since some people get really into it and will start on Friday.

I thought I had said Friday the 13th weekend in my post, but I guess I made a typo and forgot the weekend part when proof reading it. Damn those late night posts when you are half asleep. My bad. I'll update my Google Calendar.

Precisely Nerd, one thing I have learned over the years is that it is a foolish thing to celebrate Valentine's Day on Valentine's Day. Movie theaters and restaurants are always packed, traffic is terrible, and so on. Being that my girlfriend and I are huge Friday the 13th fans, we thought what better way to celebrate than on Friday the 13th this year, the day before Valentines Day. Works out for us in both We get to nerd out watching movies of our favorite slasher at home, and avoid those crazy Valentine's Day crowds flocking to 50 Shades of Grey.

[Comedian]

I am a horror collector and with the Friday the 13th talk I thought this was interesting. I also collect trains....at last the two have become one.

[brawl 56]

A new addition to my Arkham collection:

I got Zsasz really cheap and boxed from a local comic shop in Luxembourg, where a friend of mine helped me out getting this figure! I'm so happy that I can add him to my collection, because the second market prices for Zsasz are way beyond reasonable.

And also the probably last figure, I'll add to my Mad Max collection:


There's still one missing, Max with gas can, but it's so hard to find one still unopened... :/

Prices on the Arkham Asylum figures are way stupid. On ebay and amazon the Bane is over $80 on average, for comparison I got the updated Bane two pack (where he had a LOT more pose) with a Batman for only $40.

I was just messing with you, not like anyone is actually upset you stated a fact. Your apology is quite unnecessary good sir.

Indeed. Zsasz goes from 60$ up to over 100$! Insane!
I'm happy I paid the regular retail price of an Arkham figure, which is roughly 28$.

I honestly don't know what regular price is, I've gotten most of mine (however little that may be) on clearance so I wouldn't know. I guess the only one I got at regular price was Arkham Origins Batman, which I got for $27 free shipping. Origins Killer Croc was $18 in store, Ra's Al Ghul was $13 free shipping, Origins Deadshot was $17 free shipping, and the Bane/Batman pack was $40 free shipping for me (at retail I've seen it as being closer to $60). I really hope the Arkham Knight Scarecrow is good and easy to get, because I passed on the Asylum version once in hoping the new one is better.

I think ~27$ is quite the normal price for them.
Most of the named figures are not so popular, so you can get them for a really good price.
On the other hand, some of the figures are pretty hard to find these days.
Like I said, I'm still surprised that this little shop had a Zsasz figure just lying around.

For the new figures, especially Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight, I recommend to preorder them.
And I can't wait to get Scarecrow, too! He looks awesome, and I love his Mad-Max-like leg brace.But I will pass on Batman and Harley. I already got 4 Batman figures and two of Harley Quinn. I don't need more of the same characters.

[Trivial Psychic]

Finally got around to picking up this guy...


And I can cross one more seeker off my bucket list, finally grabbing Animated Sunstorm (and Ratchet I suppose....you can tell who I really wanted. )
