I picked up two more of the new Star Wars die cast vehicles today at the Disney Store. Both are exclusives and are readily available on their store website.

First Order TIE Fighter

First Order Special Forces TIE Fighter

So....Under the weather today and watching some reviews on figures and decided to try my hand at one too. Just grabbed my most recent purchases unopened. Definitely needs work, better lighting, and me not weazing through it sick, but check it out. LOL

Saturday's Hauls
My FAVORITE HAUL is the STAR WARS PLAYSET!
Star Wars Disney Infinity Rise Against the Empire playset!!!

Star Wars Disney Infinity Rise Against the Empire playset (1) by Tsak Knight, on Flickr
quick story:

and the other stuff:
Marvel Legends White Tiger (they had ALL of the Rhino series at my TRU)
Batman Classic TV Series Catwoman...$20 is TOO much for her, but so is driving to other stores to never find her, or paying twice as much on Amazon/eBay...so I bit the bullet on her

Saturday hauls by Tsak Knight, on Flickr
Target had a bunch of $1 Star Wars stuff: Key Chains, bags, and candy in a Darth Vader head
amiibo Dr. Mario

Saturday hauls by Tsak Knight, on Flickr
my favorite Target Star Wars bag of all three is this one!
I heard that the Tomorrowland Disney Infinity pack was good, so I bought a set at Target.
While I was at Wal-Mart I found this Resistance Trooper (they have the best prices on the 5 POA figures)...not sure why my iPad camera is blurry, I DID just drop the iPad before taking the pics

Target Star Wars bag
amiibo Samus and Ganondorf
and the RED version of Lightning McQueen makes my Disney Infinity 1.0 set COMPLETE!

I might get Grevious just for all of those extra lightsabers alone...

So far, they haven't fallen apart...but then again, during the week I have no time to play with them. They extra Lightsabers are cool.

That exclusive cover is amazing! Who's the artist ? Whoever it is, they did a good job of replicating Bruce Timm's aesthetic.

the cover artist is Rick Burchet. looks slightly similar.... i didn't take a peek inside because i was planning on getting this sent off to CGC for grading sometime this month. i've already that the original years ago.

donmeca2020 · 09-13-2015, 01:04 PM

long story short, i won a chunk of cash this past friday. today i decide i want to buy a toy or something locally, because i have the cash in hand and i want something NOW!!! lol. so i went to my local Walmart and NADA.... went to a target, shelves were stocked but nothing that i wanted or needed. i then had to run to the grocery store, so for the hell of it i stoped at a wal greens and i found these !!! i recall they were getting released but didn't remember when. so i jumped on them. last 2 left

For any minimate collector, can you tell me if the packages are supposed to be taped on the sides like that? or is that a walgreens thing or what?? i feel as though they might have been tampered with maybe.

Taped on the side like what? Can't really see from the photo, but yes, usually Minimate boxes are taped with clear tape on both sides, 2 on each side, one in the middle and one near the top at the slant of the box.

is there tape on the upper portion of your boxes? your lucky to find those... around these parts these things are hot commodities. hell i still havent found a spiderman 2099 funko or black costume spidey funko in stores and they've been out for how long????

Goldengreg · 09-13-2015, 07:36 PM

First week in Tokyo...

The Ultraman toys on the right were kindly given to me by Tsuburaya (producers of the original show) when I visited their office.
"We have tons of this stuff, please take some and don't hesitate to trash it if it doesn't fit your suitcase"
I was o_O

The Havok and Zombie Viper were on a second-hand store, unusually stuffed of MU. I think a guy just sold them all his US toy collection. Too bad there wasn't much of what I was searching.

They were only exclusive for a limited time. Fear, Ezra, Zeb, Mulan, Sabine, and Kanan are supposed to be released everywhere this week. They are even in the weekly ad from Hastings. Looks like TRU jumped the gun before the 15th. I believe Boba Fett is supposed to be released everywhere when Darth Vader and Darth Maul hit stores.

I didn't take a look but that's how most minimates are. I just sold 2 of the 2099 sets. I never saw any of the Marvel Pops at Walgreens and they are probably not distributing any more. I still need a Yoda.

Defzombie · 09-13-2015, 10:20 PM

I love minimates.

Falcon hood where did you get those notebooks?

Me too, but I struggle to get the new stuff as my LCS refuses to sell them due to low demand.
