I was supposed to be finalizing my Christmas shopping for my friends and family, but I couldn't help but pick up a few things for myself:



I believe it was Arker TimothyR who was talking about the diminishing quality in all of the TF series, even Generations, and I have to agree. Arcee and Chromia are tolerable. Adequate at best. I'm glad to have a Gen 1-styled Arcee, but she leaves a lot to be desired. Chromia is a little more disappointing. When compared to the Prime version of Arcee, who Chromia's body was "borrowed" from, Arcee is much more substantial and feels like she is just of a higher quality.
Oh well, I still like them, I'm just not blown away, or even really impressed, like I had hoped.

Conversely, I was exceedingly paranoid about the durability and quality of the Robocop Vs. Terminator Endoskeleton Gunner, but he is AWESOME ! I want to get the rest of the line now, I'm that happy with him. I have mixed feelings about NECA, due to their hit-or-miss QC, but this guy, although slightly delicate, is quite impressive.

Also picked up some Hot Wheels, but I'll post them in the HW/Matchbox thread.
