The "Look At What I Just Got!" Thread

Picked up this set from the local TRU. Closing sales had this set @ 50% off with an additional 20% off at the register. Walked away with the set for about $15.

I went to a local TrU recently and got Blade and (finally found) the Ghost Rider with motorcycle for 10% off both, which doesn't sound like very much off, but this is the first time I've ever seen the GR w/ motorcycle. the girl at the register tried to mark my Blade figure with a permanent marker and I was like WTF!?!?!?! she said they have to in case i try to bring it back, but i said i promise i wont, so she stopped halfway thru marking up Blade. so if you are a MoC collector (not that I am, but its the idea), let them know not to mark it with the marker heh

so then I went to a junk shop in Mineola, TX and found that dirty Bravestarr lunchbox (w/o thermos unfortunately) for about $8! not sure how to clean this, but I'll figure it out eventually. the label is kinda messed up too, so i'll have to be careful with it I reckon.

I went to my TRU for the last time on Friday, and bought a Funko and Amiibo and while checking out the guy covered the barcodes with a marker too. My heart skipped a beat, but won't be needing them mint, so I let it go. Still not cool though haha.

this is typical of a liquidation. the signs all say "no returns" but people try anything. or they try to "return" it to some other store, like say Wal-Mart, in an effort to make some small profit.
(I formerly worked for one of the big box home improvement stores. the individual stores had their own clearance items. a contractor was discovered to be buying items on clearance at location W and bringing them to location S to return without a receipt, therefore getting full price and profiting in the hundreds.)

I got the last one at my local Gamestop today

My pickups for the last 2 months as I decided to collect Neca ultimate and (select) retro cloth figs. Got some amazing deals that I couldn’t pass up and I knew it was now or never to start collecting. Not the worst way to spend $615

Sorry about the low quality
The Cyclops/Jean set was reduced $20 because someone swiped the alternate heads for jean so it seemed like a good deal

PROVOST · 03-28-2018, 01:48 AM

Wow $20 for that (assuming is from TRU AUS)?

Awesome scores!!!

thanks, yes it was tru aus
i wish my tru was that generous with its discounting XD
but nah it was $59 reduced from 79 (same price as vision and wanda)
wasn't that worried about the missing heads and i definitely needed a new cyclops as both of mine are very thin/lanky. it's been there for awhile but i didn't pull the trigger last time cause around here the marvel legends pricing is inconsistent, going from $35 to $45 each depending where u look

I also got Falcon and Nebula ordered tonight and Netflix punisher has been shipped so i should get him hopefully tomorrow
