Saw this same figure at Kohls and I was excited for like two seconds cus I thought huh maybe I can find the Mandarin and then I saw it wasn't the right ultimate Iron man so i said oh never mind as all they really had was the same 3 crappy movie figures

*note*: I don't mind the movie figures per se just prefer the comic ones

Decided to pick up the Power Team Elite watchtower today.

Still a pretty good grab. I went to my TRU this weekend. I didn't see what I was looking for The DCUC Mad Love 2 pack but I get the 6" NECA Robocop and at Wally World I got The 3.75" Lizard. Photos up tomorrow

Yeh I picked up that version of the ultimate armour and was impressed, but not as much as the other version from the Mandarin wave with the extra helmet... have an ebay seller hooking me up... just depends on the paycheck.

Thanks! I used the barbed wire that came with the POC Cobra Troopers.
More pics in my collection thread.

[miketime]

Finally found a Thor Destroyer and the warriors 3 at Target. Pics after work. I knew if I was patient I would find them at retail. As promised:

Hit up a flea market in Marshfield MA. This is all I got but it only cost my 2.25.

This is the first time I have seen these. Are they compatition for mini mates? Same size and all that. They look interesting but an easy pass for me

[updatedude]

Ironman's just for scale.

I might have to get the OOOs candy toys then to fill up his slot in the motion revive figures I have. Are those minicon ports on Birth/REbirth?

Unfortunately, nope. I tried fitting some PCC Minicons in, but alas... they're too big.



Speaking of too big, the Combo Change Candy Toys are alas, too large for MRS. They're closer to the Decade Hissatsu candy toys. Although with FAR superior sculpting and articulation.

While they wouldn't fit with MRS or old Joes, they'll fit in well with modern movie toys such as Ironman and Thor etc. Considering that MRS are kinda too small for that, the fact that the CCCToys are compatible is SUBARASHI!

I don't mind a little variance. I use the decade candy toys to fill his slot. They are only slightly off. I use MRS to fit in with MU, and with some it fits in fine, with others like the movie toys, yeah it doesn't work. Some like the first couple waves of MU and ROC GI joe are perfect though. The size variance to me elicits a little bit of armor variance mixed with character height variance. Like kabuto and series before except for blade can be considered more streamlined armors outside of the masked forms, and kuuga is a more organic rider anyway whereas Decade and Diend are more armor and need that slight 2 milimeter height difference. Same to OOOs for me though, I mostly just want Sagohzo and he needs to be slightly bigger because of his earth shattering nature.





Also guess what I got today?
Yes that's right....


X-23 x2
Darkhawk
Commander Rogers
Thanos!!!

I almost bought 2 of each, cept for thanos.

I went target hunting today and saw thanos, just missed Skaar, so he's still missing from my collection. On the way back I passed the Walmart I kept checking that told me they had 20 instock but no clue where, and a new shipment coming october 10th. I thought why not, maybe they found those 20...

My zune was playing as I was heading back from target, all of a sudden "Don't forget about the omen" line played on it from the techno mixed Omen III ( http://youtu.be/cuJPviMC43o that's the original, can't find the remix I have on youtube), "Show you the light, show you where." It just kept going. Love that song. I pulled into walmart, and turned it off, walked in and erupted in glee as the peg was full! All the ones I was looking for except for Skaar!!! (Too excited to write this good durr.)

That's officially now my favorite song too (the techno remix from the 90s, not the original). I swear my zune is possessed some days when it does stuff like that. It's as bad as the closing songs for true blood.

Oh, they also had the captain britain spider-man two packs, and the power-man Ironfist two packs. I'm not interested in those so I passed, but they're on shelves now too if it hadn't been confirmed yet.

Finally a Way Big figure in several lines, the new figures like those are just epic. I keep meaning to pick up a Highbreed and Vilgax in that scale. All around the line just keeps getting better though I'm not a fan of this new malfunctioned color swapped aliens line. I'd rather they just repacked all the aliens from the lines and started putting them back on the market including their ultimate forms.

Coolness on what you got.

Well, you could have things like MRS Blade etc be regular Blade and SIC KT Blade as like, super organic "berserk" Blade.

Picked up figure 000 today

[ersico]

oh wow. ive never seen this,,is the b/w?

It's Ultimate Agregor. The main baddy from ultimate alien. He absorbs other aliens abilities, and did so in a bid to become the ultimate being. This led to the follow up season of Ben and Gwen trying to save Kevin after he absorbed all the abilities of the omnimatrix to stop Agregor. Kevin's a half breed of the same kind of aline Agregor is. That's why Kevin can absorb materials and other abilities. As a kid he only knew of electricity, but when he absorbed the omnimatrix originally it revealed his lineage. More of it came to light in the newer seasons. I love the tongue in cheek humor they use sometimes with the ep titles. "Whom continuity would destroy" is the episode all about kevin. It was named that because the future episodes with Ben 10,000 show that Kevin is evil with all the alien powers. So they had poked fun at that.

What?
I follow Ben 10 stuff as much as I do MU, and DC. It's hillarious to me because it's essentially an amalgamation of DC and Marvel with Kirby-esque jokes and references. Ben 10 was originally supposed to be DC's dial H for hero, but CN wanted something they could profit more off of. They do still make plenty of references about that though and just have fun with the premise all around besides the serious episodes.
