The "Look At What I Just Got!" Thread

Phantomcrow · 08-03-2014, 10:06 PM

With the TRU Clearance event ending this past week. I made some purchases this past Wednesday that I would not have made normally but ALL Yellow, Green , Blue, and Brown tag stuff was 90% OFF!!!!

Bought 15 boxes of Disney Infinity display cases for $1.50 a box!!
That is 45 cases total, and you can fit just about any small toy in them.

Bought 2 of the giant Kre-o Devastator for $6 each! (actually bought 4 but 2 went to a friend who is Kre-o K-razy)

Star Trek Kre-o sets. The Vengeance ship for $4.50, Bird of Prey for $2.80, Shuttle for $1.80 and the Space Dive for $0.90.

Radagast for $1.60

I tried that, but the STICKERS were removed from the STAR TREK Kre-O sets so they were NOT 90% off at my store.

Impressive!

The only time I ever saw Boba @ retail was in the Disney store.

Thats strange?? This TRU never even stickered the Trek Kreo, but they rung up just fine when they were scanned. They never stickered the Infinity cases either. I knew they were part of the clearance, but I am glad they never stickered them or they might have been sold.

they didn't. I tried. I scanned them. I would have bought them all since I could at least use the dirt-cheap bricks for anything else.

Phantom..the infinity cases were 1.50 each?? do they keep them with the other infinity stuff?? I wish I had known about them

cobracobra · 08-04-2014, 10:17 AM

Turtle blimp is up on TRU.com I went for it because I have a fever and the only cure is more turtles.

Yep, Dirt Cheap. They kept them with all the other Infinity stuff on the lower shelves but I believe the sale ended this weekend. Most stores were sold out for a while cause they got tagged properly. The TRU I got them from never brown tagged them so no one ever thought they were on clearance. The cases were 15$ normally and still are at places like Gamestop. For the $1.50 for a box of 3 cases , I stockpiled. I even had a lady with her kid ask me why I was filling a cart with all of them, I told her and gave her and the kid 5 boxes (there were 20 to start with in the store). I was prepping for all of the new Marvel Infinity figures coming.

not sure, I'll figure out the scale. a Real skateboard is about 30 inches, the mini one is 3.75" so... 0.125 ratio: it's really 1/8 scale. It's too big for him.

I think 1/8 scale is a 9 inch figure...9x8=72 which is the accepted 6 feet normal height of man on which scales are designed.
is there a 9" figure? maybe one of those 9" Star Trek figures from Playmates?

unleashed boba might be but if it is, it isn't very poseable!!

That's called a fingerboard. They are scaled to your hand, not any particular figure. There might be some import toys that could work with it, but I'm not sure.

Falconhood · 08-07-2014, 05:41 PM

i know it's a fingerboard, I'm not completely stupid. I just know it can be used to have fun...the purpose of toys.

#starwars by SacredKnightOfTomorrow, on Flickr
6" Greedo is 12th scale and the board is 8th scale

No insult intended. Just pointing out they aren't made for any particular toy scale or size class.

Never said that meant you couldn't use it with other toys.
