Great new toys. The Super Friends series should be fun to collect. I always love the Kenner inspired Super Powers series. Congrats.

Thank you. McFarlane can really crank figures out, so I'm hoping that they can get pretty deep into the Super Friends roster with the time they have left.

I saw lots of movie Superman, I wanted the one with Kryto but I don't see any of those.

You got the new GIJoe already! How come mine always ship later than everyone else's.

I haven't seen the Krypto version in stores anywhere.

I found the Joes at Target.

I haven't seen GIJoe Classified in Target for a long time! Walmart even longer.

The one by me only had the retro carded ones at various times for quite awhile. These are the first mainline releases I've seen there in months.

Nice new additions to the collection. The lion head superman looks very interesting.

Congrats.

Man... I always really liked the Mr. Terrific costume design, but it translated awful to the live action... lol

Did they make all the Superman Robots with different numbers ? It would be annoying for a completist to collect the same figure with only a different number on the chest, if they make them all. lol

Nope, they just made #4. It would have been easy enough to include stickers with different numbers on them, to get people to buy more, but I'm glad they didn't.

I have stopped collecting anything TMNT and sold off all but a handful. I have drastically scaled back horror-related figures.
DC is now my main IP for sure. I buy quite a few GI Joe and MOTU, but not nearly every release. I still sprinkle in some NECA and other odds and ends when the mood strikes me.

Did you back the Rattler? People are starting to receive theirs, no movement on mine yet.

I didn't, no. I'm trying to only stick with the vehicles I had as a kid, which weren't many.

I was surprised by the TMNT. However, it's best to collect whatever you want and enjoy. I support you in this.

I watched a lot of TMNT cartoons as a child and played the games on NES cartridges. Despite this, it's a series I've never really gotten into. I only have a few figures in my collection. I even sold the retro series.

I'm sure new toys are on the way.

I watched the TMNT cartoon when it first aired and read some of the Mirage comics, but that was really about it. I had a few of the Playmates figures, but I never went hard into the line. NECA hooked me with the cartoon line when it was still only available as con exclusives. I loved the sculpts and the matte paint finishes on the figures. Next thing I know, I'm all in on all the different TMNT sub-lines. I realized (probably too late) that I was spending tons of money and taking up tons of space on an IP that I really wasn't that deeply connected to. I had to break the habit of buying toys solely because "they look cool". Given limited resources, I decided only to collect the things that mean something more to me. I have much more love for DC, MOTU, and GI Joe, so those became my focus.

New toys are always on the way!
