Spoiler:

Both my parents say grime...i'm doubtful it may have been paint...looks grimey tho.

I ask this because...once it's gone, it is GONE! XD

Edit: ok, i verified it's actually metallic paint, just real worn out in many places... °3° wonder if i can sell this thing...i sure could use the money, but ebayers would probably prefer the real deal...i'll just shove it in my 'bootleg' shelf...if anybody wanted it lemme know i wouldn't even know what to charge for the thing & i'm not really into gobots.

never seen a boot leg cy kill before. it looks like he doesnt even transform.

[Nickokapo]

He didn't even transform i ended up trading it in at a figure store...it held no real value to me, nostalgic or otherwise ( i never watched GoBots )

But loose Shredder or Splinter always seem to go for $20 or over shipped to Argentina with the robe & belt...april may be cheaper but i haven't gotten her yet.

I could get 2012/2013 TMNT toys with help from my friend in USA, but i'm not too into them so far (They are nice but i favored characters i don't have, like finn & mordecai ^^' The classics line is nice, but over my budget )

I ALMOST landed a $3.50 2k3 figure here in argentina last month...except i did not get it, i got home and looked it up...it was a single figure made up from different "Fightin' Gear Turtles" and "Ninja Knights TMNT" parts...custom from hell i was disappointed...

dats cool! good luck bud

I've gotten this Yoshi in the mail this morning, it's pretty cute :p

[TheCanadiandrome]

haha! i love Yoshi

[Nickokapo]

Me too he's cool!
Today i got luigi & donkey kong in the mail i thought it'd take at least a week more to arrive.


(DK's head mold isn't the same as the popco/goldie one that is sold in the USA =_=; oh well)

[TheCanadiandrome]

lol those are too cute

[Shogun26]

those are very cute! Really love the Yoshi!

[Nickokapo]

Thank you i'm glad you guys liked them!
I really grew fond of these figures initially, i just wanted mario & DK, but they're very cute (specially yoshi X3)
I'm happy with them.
I earned some money unexpectedly, which will be enough to buy a Goomba & Bowser: http://dx.com/p/super-mario-king-bow...om-color-68432 http://dx.com/p/cute-mario-figure-di...y-goomba-28628 !
(They gave me a $2 gift card, so i'll probably use it to grab this koopa paratroopa plushie aswell: http://dx.com/p/cute-super-mario-fig...ratroopa-32213)
These are the remaining ones i'd like to have from this series, & maybe princess peach & toad that's about it.

I also found a place that sells used TMNT 2K12 don & raph figures for like $13 shipped to argentina from china o0, but, i gotta think about it still..
I can get the 4" 2011 thundercats for like $8 shipped, moc, or 2-3 of those mario figures, for that price, so it's cumbersome to decide ( 'w'; )

[TheCanadiandrome]

More cute Mario figures! And that site looks cool, sadly no TMNT items

[Nickokapo]

Yeah they have a bunch of legit stuff that i'm interested in (banpresto mario & dragonball figures, "Together Plus" south park figures..)
It's a good way for me to buy retail priced import stuff, since shipping is free to my neck o' the woods
Too bad there's no TMNT stuff...i'd be all over it!

Bump: Good news even tho i still haven't received the buzzlightyear or wilykit figures (it's been a month & a half now )
I got the Link plushy from the legend of zelda in the mail this morning! \( 'u')/ yay!

[Nickokapo]

Today i got Buzz Lightyear in the mail!

Send date: march 22.. :q mail was quite slow this time...but it's here and that's all that matters!
Now i can stop worrying about it!

[Nickokapo]

I got a Super Mario Bros mushroom plush keychain in the mail today X'D

[TheCanadiandrome]

cool additions! very cute keychain

[Nickokapo]

Thank you
Now i ordered the 3 inch bowser figure:
http://www.bbcw.com/product.php?prod...07&cat=&page=6
Because the 5 inch one looked like a bobblehead lol: http://dx.com/p/super-mario-king-bow...om-color-68432
There's a 7 inch one with correct proportions but i couldn't find it: http://thefwoosh.com/forum/viewtopic...t=180#p2048788

Also waiting for an 80's shredder with cape & belt!My friend helped out on the shipping so i could afford it

The other items i had ordered (wilykit, lucario & the goomba keychain) never arrived but ebay decided to rule in my favor & gave me a refund on one of the items...i mostly wanted wilykit x_x, maybe some other time...

Here's a random chinese lego clone i got on ebay for the hell of it (the auction ended at 42 cents w/ free shipping lol o.0 not bad considering the little single figure/vehicle lego brand bags go for like 4 bucks)

& you can 'buy it now' for like a dollar...i'm thinking of getting a bunch of them & making a lego people army

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEaaauurgh-- om nom nomz http://i43.tinypic.com/2yov0ch.jpg

[TheCanadiandrome]

Wow grats on that

[Nickokapo]

Thanks i so wanted it to keep completing the '88 line:
http://www.tmnttoys.com/88figures/series1.html
Only April & Splinter to go then i could move on to some more '89-'91 basic figures i like (Rat King, Mouser, Panda Khan, Krang & a few others )
Then maybe '03? (2003 style Shredder, Usagi Yojimbo & karai would be epic...the utrom's nice, but the price is bananas, so no dice )

Oh and my friend got me a tmnt book on his visit to the free comic book day event!

It's based on the nickelodeon toon, i had no idea that it was coming out, or that it'd be available on fcbd so i was surprised:
http://i40.tinypic.com/ou8jfs.jpg

I'll post pics once something arrives (bowser's gonna take like 3-4 weeks so it may be a while lol, but hey, their free shipping's one of the main reasons i was able to afford to stock up on mario figures so i'm not complainin' 8'D)

[TheCanadiandrome]

nice! yeah i'm happy i have the whole '88 line myself, and that comic is cool. i scored it as well from a fellow Dromer

[Nickokapo]

Yeah it's a good line, no obscure characters or "wacky feature/costume" versions of the same old characters that i feel plagued the line after '91.
Now i ordered '88 april but my friend will keep it for me, i probably won't discuss shipping it to argentina until IDW's "TMNT Villain Microseries: Alopex" comic is out.
Alopex is cool i was hoping to buy it & then combine shipping for both things to save costs.

Anyway, my goomba plush arrived today! 8'D

[TheCanadiandrome]
