Can you guys post pics? I mean its cool reading what other people are buying, but lets show some pics...
If you insist.
Personally, I like to add mini-reviews/thoughts if I've had time to mess with them, regardless if I have pics.
Here's who's in the picture (Left to right, back row first)
Altitude - Like him more than I thought I would. The grampy old man face sells it. Plus, good reuse of parts. Just wish the hose on the mask plugged into something.
Hit & Run - This is the worst Joe I've gotten in a long time. Everything's reused from other figures and the parts used don't even work together (and some of them are crap to begin with). Plus, the duffel bag with retractable grappling hook isn't here.
Chuckles - They got the shirt right and that's about it (and some will say they didn't do that right either). The appeal of the original was the working shoulder holster. This one doesn't work and there's no excuse for it not to work. But I digress, I got him because the custom that represents my brother uses the original as a base. I was pleasantly surprised to see all the gear of the old custom fits.
Outback (Night Force) - Have the other Outback already. I normally hate sub-team repaints, but this one may be my favorite of the two. Plus, like Chuckles I've been using Outback's head as my own for a long time. Finally, upgrade time!
Wet-Suit - Not bad, but unless. I've never had much use for the niche Joes like Snow Job and Torpedo. Still, I've never owned this mold, so it ain't all bad.
Range Viper - Great reused parts, great new part, a grenade launcher, nice colors, and a mask that will give me nightmares. This guy is awesome!
Recondo - He has what is is known as "Duke arms" in the GI Joe fandom. The horror. Seriously though, it ain't that bad (for once). I do believe this is the first set of "fixed" Duke arms I've had, but I'm not sure if the upper arms are from the fixed duke arms or a different figure. If all fixed duke arms are like this, then I'm opening my Doc with the fixed arms.
Zap - I get sick of green in GI Joe real quick. I couldn't care less about the "first 13" because most of them look the same. This Zap, on the other hand, rocks. The new parts make him full of win. The bazooka is awesome and the missiles fit into the thing and can store on the backpack. The belt is really nice too. His head makes him look like he's from France (nothing wrong with that imo).
Night Creeper - Nothing like a ninja...from the desert? Not sure why, but I think desert ninja when I look at him. Think it's the hood. Odd colors and I don't like the arms, but overall a good figure. The vest and the crossbow make it worth it.
Alley Viper - I already had one, but if I haven't said it before, I love this figure. It's a huge shame this figure didn't get single carded. The only thing keeping this from being the best Joe figure ever made is the hook gun. It doesn't connect to the backpack even though it's meant to. Still very much worth buying.

Gorilla Alien (loose) from the old Kenner Aliens line. I had that one when I was younger, but sold it to my younger brother, so, when I saw it for cheap, I snagged it up. Didn't get the facehugger with it, but that's okay--and I still had the little Dark Horse mini-comic in my toy booklet box.

I really like the Kenner Aliens and Predators figures. I bought a few of them on ebay in 2007. I also have the Gorilla Alien, he's cool. My favorite is the Queen Alien with the tounge-jaw attack when the back of the head is squeezed.

I finally got my hands on not one, but two black-haired Majin Vegeta figures. Both were carded... I opened the less neat looking one (which still wasn't terrible). Together, including shipping, they cost about $60... which is better than it could have (http://cgi.ebay.com/Dragonball-Z-Majin-Vegeta-BABIDI-Saga-ULTRARARE_W0QQitemZ270360335231QQcmdZViewItemQQptZ LH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item3ef2bb537f&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14)....

Power Rangers RPM Moto-Morph Blue Ranger
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/kramwartap/pr_rpm.jpg
Hey Patraw, how is that Moto-Morph figure? I've passed on them because they seem underarticulated and kinda crappy (not to mention overpriced), but I wouldn't mind having one if they're halfway decent (I generally like to complete my teams by having one figure from each different assortment).
And how tall is that Exodia? That figure looks wicked cool. :)
Patraw
09-16-2009, 12:15 PM
The Power Ranger is so-so. It doesn't have much articulation, and what it does have isn't very useful. What you see in the pics is basically what you get, movement-wise. The sculpt is pretty nice though. The gun doesn't fire, although it looks like it would. I got him for free, so I can't complain, but I don't think I'd pay retail for him, unless you're a big fan of that particular incarnation of the Blue Ranger.
Exodia is pretty big--I'm not at home right now, so I can't measure him, but I'd say he's around 7-8 inches tall, and bulky.

Here's another one I used to have when I was a kid that I've recently reacquired: Magnokor from Inhumanoids (either my younger brother, or myself, sold ours to a local antique store many years ago, along with a crapload of other toys, mainly vintage Star Wars). He's missing the front, hollow half of his body, that snaps over the fiery lava form, to make a complete rock creature, but, seeing as how I never liked that part of the toy much anyway (it was just an unarticulated shell after all), it's no huge loss. The hips joints are on the loose side, but the paint is in pretty good condition. My brother and I used to have the two tree dudes too, both the orange and grey ones. Never had any of the other Inhumanoids figures unfortunately--I would have liked to have had Tendril and D'compose in particular.

Transformers ROTF Skids [I'm not sure if I've got the transformation 100% correct--mine came packed with the wrong instructions (Mudflap's), so I had to wing it using only the two photos on the cardback as a guide].

Here's some more random loose stuff I bought, or was given, this past week:
Transformers Beast Wars Depthcharge. Missing his accessories, but otherwise intact. Arguably one of the worst examples of kibble ever--getting him to stand is no easy feat with all that crap on his back. Pretty cool figure overall though.
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/kramwartap/depthcharge.jpg
Two Starscreams, Transformers Armada and a Burger King movie version (with battle damage chest action, a la MOTU). The Energon one is missing numerous parts, most noticeably the wings, but the electronic sounds still work. Oddly enough, even without all the parts, the jet mode still looks decent.
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/kramwartap/starscreamduo.jpg
Burger King Fantastic Four figures, Doctor Doom, Silver Surfer, Mr. Fantastic, and the Human Torch. One of my nieces gave me the Thing months ago too, but I can't remember where I put it. The Silver Surfer is almost impossible to get to stand with that crazy pose. I love this version of Victor Von Doom--the huge fists just suit him somehow, and I like that they went the extra mile and vac-metallized his face.
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/kramwartap/FF4bk.jpg
And, continuing with the FF4 theme, a large, kiddy-style Thing figure. He's goofy looking, but I adore him.
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/kramwartap/FF4kidthing.jpg
Some random, camouflaged, African American 12" G.I.JOE. I don't know if the pants belong to him or not, but he came with them. If anybody knows more about him, please share (I think he's just a generic one, rather than a specific RAH character, but I may be wrong).
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/kramwartap/camouflagejoe.jpg
No idea (Robotech maybe?). He's some kind of Power Ranger-esque Police dude. The copyright date is 1988 Toho/Takara. If anybody knows who, or what, this is, please let me know. It's got a mighty impressive amount of articulation for a late 80s figure, and has some peg holes for attaching pieces of armor/accessories.
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/kramwartap/spacepolice.jpg
Pocahontas' plush raccoon from the Disney movie of the same name (I think the animal's name is Miko, but I don't remember). His hands are velcro and stick together, and, if you squeeze his belly, there's a mechasim inside that emits a raccoon-like chittering sound. I wasn't all that fond of the movie (not that I got to be objective about it when I watched it, as I was in a Native American studies class in college at the time, and the only reason the professor had us watching it was so that we could identify and pick apart the negative stereotypes), but I do like raccoons.

My most recent action figure purchase is 'The Dark Knight' Movie Masters Harvey Dent. He is 6" tall, fully articulated, and will fit in nicely with my other Dark Knight action figures. I hope he arrives in the mail soon. I think this may be the first figure made of Harvey Dent, before he became Two-Face.
I bought him from:

Spawn Series 12 "The Heap" (1998). This is loose/second-hand. Some of the junk that's supposed to be on his body is missing/broken off (a shovel handle, vertebrae column, pipes, several pieces of broken glass, etc). I'm contemplating sculpting/fabricating replacements to fix him up properly. Seeing as how he's a creature composed of garbage anyway, it's not as big a deal as it would be for other figures that he's missing a few details here and there. I always wanted this guy, but never got one till now--one of McFarlane Toy's better monster figures in my opinion.

Toy Biz Spider-Man Stunt System "Slide 'N Trap Post Office" (2005). Still haven't decided yet if I'm going to leave it hanging MOC on the walls with all of my other unopened toys or not. This isn't the type of toy I usually purchase, Marvel Comics characters or otherwise, but I got it for free. I might be able to use the little, unarticulated Kraven The Hunter for something or another . . .

Cool figures, Patraw. That's an interesting feature Spider-Man has, with the magnets. Although, his lack of hands doesn't look right to me.
I went to Toys R Us today, and I bought a Spider-Man from Spider-Man classics, Shocker from Spectacular Spider-Man, and Original Spock from Star Trek. My favorite of my new figures would be Shocker.

I don't have any pics (yet), but all of the Marvel Universe and associated figures (Wolverine Origins, Spider-Man, Iron Man 2) have been on sale/clearance in these parts for a while, so I've been nabbing some of them on occasion, since I thought they were way too expensive at their standard price point. I just wish there were still some Wolverine & The X-Men figs still on shelves.
The latest batch included Hand Ninja (MU), Mark 01 Iron Man (IM2), and Toxic Blast Venom (SM), which, strangely, not only comes with an axe made out of webbing (!!), but appears to be Eddie Brock Venom, despite the character art on the packaging plainly showing the Mac Gargan version.

Been an avid collector of Pete Fowler's Monsterisms for a few years now. Got myself quite a collection but I started it with what is classed as vol 2, having totally missed vol 1. They are pretty rare, and whilst I do regular searches on ebay, they very rarely pop up, and when they do they cost an arm and a leg. (This, I believe is actually vol 1.5 - different colourways - but that is not the kind of thing I mind). So much to my surprise, last night I won this for £51.00. May seem expensive to some, but I would probably've paid twice that if need be. I've wanted these for so long. Anyway, can't wait to actually receive them!

I hope so too with Megatron, I was dumb enough not to get bumblebee as well. The next day I decided to buy him too, he was gone.
Watched Optibotimus review of Cybertronian Soundwave, and I really want that figure too, even thought I have a Soundwave in that scale from before.
I like the color scheme of Axor, not sure if I have seen him at the store. Only found one store that sells transformers, the local Forbidden Planet.
Sorry Kappa, I thought you were based stateside. :)
Bumblebee is well worth the acquisition. I've never played WFC, but I like that there is a Cybertron mode figure of Bee all the same. He is a pretty darn decent figure and I may even get the Cliffjumper repaint.

That's a great box set. I spent a long time tracking it down the year it came out, and got it for Christmas that year. It was amazing. It still hangs out on my collection shelf. One of the best McFarlane boxsets. As much as I love the Ash/Evil Ash set, it isnt really as unique.

My MOTUC He-Man and Skeletor (both reissue) arrived today. And wow, they are awesome-sauce.
Read the Name Demo-Man on Skeletor's card and googled it, ho boy it's fun to see the debate about this new character (he's based off the original concept of Skeletor, for those of you who did not know it) And that he and Keldor merged by the power of Hordak seems to get many into a fan-rage.
Honestly I really don't mind that Keldor gets stronger by being merged by Demo-Man

^ They really are so GREAT! I have 'em battle posed on my desk, facing eachother and duplicates hung on the wall. They're the only two I've collected from this line of MOTU figures, although I have just about every modern repaint of Skeletor at this point and the SDCC Keldor exclusive. Glad they arrived sooner than later! The anticipation is a killer.
Don't forget to join the sword halves!

I got the power sword halves combined, but they don't stay on very well. So I used a clear rubber band that was under skeletors head. It fits nicely om the guard keeping the halves together.
So now I got 3 MOTUC figures. He-Man, Skeletor and Stratos.
I got MOTUC Teela.
Also just acquired not purchased Darkmount from TF generations

Baiken from Guilty Gear and Koyori from Sengoku Ace. Two additions to my video game figures.
Baiken, although she was packed well enough, had her katana and a finger broken that I had to glue back on. I'm not faulting the shipper on this one because there was a lot of effort made trying to make sure it didn't break.
Koyori came in the box and in perfect condition, but I had no idea that her top came off. This doesn't bother me in the least, but it really is something that I think at least the box would've indicated if not the seller. Gotta keep it out of my perverted little brother's reach though ;)

It was the first reissue S-16 from 2000 I found it locally for $50 bucks brand new. I have a G1 megatron that almost in same condition but the stickers just went sour over the years. Hopefully in few days I will have the masterpiece megatron in hands but probably wont open him being afraid something will break on it
I've heard the MP Megatron has a few QC problems. Certainly needs handling with care.
I recentley acquired: Transformers: Reveal The Sheild - Windcharger (scout class), Tailcutter, Prowl, Gold Bumblebee (Goldbug), Megatron, and Starscream (legends class).
Windcharger is not out in the states yet, so I hear. I guess that's something for the UK considering no more Generations figures are being released here. No Kup or Scourge for us Brits I am afraid.

And man does this figure look awesome, but it sucks major ass! first hour after unboxing the neck snaps when I tried to change his head. SO now the neck is glued and I can not use the extra 2 heads he came with.

Now, for my purchase of the year...
A highly detailed, repainted Johnny Five robot figure from the Short Circuit films. A friend of mine is one of the creators of this masterpiece, of which there are only 100 in existence. (They're making a second run however, so you can get one as well.) It stands 13" tall, can be posed in several positions, has real working rubber treads and comes with both the laser and red tool box accessories. There's also a battery compartment available for an RC conversion, should one desire it.
This really made my day, as I had passed on the figure when it was first released and had regretted it ever since. That is, until today when a kind and talented stranger in need of some urgent funds posted it for sale! The $ went to a good cause and I'm soooo relieved that I don't have to order one from the second batch and attempt a custom paint job that wouldn't look anywhere near as good as this.

That sounds like a good new action figure. The store I went to was sold out of Hal Jordan figures in the green costume. It seems like there was some kind of sparkling looking Hal, like in a dark costume. I don't know what it was. Sinestro looks like a cool figure, but I wish he was in his yellow costume.
Yesterday I bought Green Lantern's Kilowog, and from the Thor movie I bought the Frost Giant. They're cool dudes.
I agree, the 4" Green Lantern movie figures should cost less than $7, or have more articulation. The store I went to sold Kilowog for $12.99. I got ripped off.

I unintentionally kicked up my Marvel Universe collection.
Initially, I had just picked up a Planet Hulk figure, but the leg popped off, so I e-mailed Hasbro---They sent me a replacement. I was able to fix the leg, but the replacement they sent wasn't the Hulk at all, it was Spider-Woman. So I replied to them again, and they issued another replacement. I returned SW to a store and got a US Agent figure (close enough to MU) to replace her.
Then I stumbled across an Apocalypse, so I snagged him (I tend to usually stick to getting larger MU figures, cause it feels like less of a waste of $8--Hence my initial collection consisted of Red Hulk, Hulkbuster Iron Man, etc). Then the second replacement from Hasbro came, and much to my surprise, it was one of the figures I'd really been hoping to find--Cable.
It was the Cable variant without Baby Hope, so I was stoked.
Then the next night I happened to look in a toy aisle and find a Crossbones figure (who I'd originally been looking for when I picked up US Agent), and for some odd reason a Dark Hawkeye just happened to be at a store where they'd only had a bajillion Iron Men MU figures, Mystique, and 1st Appearance Wolverine. So, I grabbed Crossbones and Hawkeye (who I'd seen go for about 45 on ebay the night prior).
Now, does anyone know how the distribution/timeline of the release of these figures works? Cause I know that Dark Hawkeye is from series 2, and most of the figures I'm seeing now are series 3. Yet, there are countless figures from series 1 and 2 that I've never seen. That, and each series seems to be getting bigger. Does anyone know how many figures are in each series?
I also found a gallery for figures from the line from comicon, and I guess I need to keep my eyes peeled more often, cause theres a ton of those I want.
Also, Marvel Legends seems to be coming back? I haven't bought any of Hasbro's Marvel legends (cause they were terrible), but the line-up thus far isn't bad.

Yeah, Hasbro's Marvel Legends haven't been very good, but I think I'm gonna get the Extremis Iron Man and Heroic Age Thor from the new line. I think they look pretty good.

You got hella lucky in your finds, bro. I never get chains of awesome like that.
Series release confuses me for MU, so I'm unable to help you there.

More oddities: More series 2 is randomly hitting, I spotted a MU Winter Soldier (passed), and some others...But picked up a THANOS, from series 2.
FYI too, dunno if this is everywhere (should be), I snagged Thanos, assuming itd be the 7.99 price point, but on my reciept, it came up as 6.99, with a dollar off sale. It was at Target, so I'm assuming this week MU/Cap toys are a dollar off? Unsure, all I know is that I was watching an auction for Thanos last night, and he was getting crazy expensive, and I stumbled into him for cheap.
I think I'm good until the next series comes out though. Unless I find a sweet deal on 90s Cyclops, or I see the X-Force 3 pack in stores (doubtful).
Edit: Saw the Young Justice figures at Target tonight also, and made a pass. 20 for the 6 inch and 10 solid for the 4 inch? No thanks. They also had the new Batman line, and 2 packs (like the Arkham city 2 pack). No 2 packs of YJ though.

This is sadly why I've stopped collecting. I never got into the 4 inch figures, and the 6 inchers I do collect are way to rich for my blood anymore, unless I see a character I really want, I guess.

I feel the same. If I break down and spend 20 bucks on a figure, its most likely a Marvel Select figure. Or goddamn huge.

I remember when you could get an awesome 6-inch Marvel Legends figure with a bunch Of accessories for $8. Now all $8 buys you is a little 4-inch figure with a base.
Now all the 6-inchers around are nearly $20. Yesterday I saw a Golden Age Batman Legacy figure with Bat-mite, a small poster, and a stand at K-Mart for $16. In 2004 I bought the Marvel Legends Silver Surfer with board, flying base, comic book and Howard The Duck. All for $8.
We just keep getting less and less, but prices still go higher and higher.

I need to move where you guys are. MU is always $9-10 unless on sale/clearance, here.
EDIT: I remember when my parents told me $3 was too expensive for a Ninja Turtle figure once. lawl.

Need to snag Tygra and Lion-O.
FYI, Toys r us is currently doing a buy 2 for $10.99 deal on all Captain America/Thor/Iron Man/Marvel universe/etc figures.
Might see if I can snag some MU fillers, like Scarlet Spider, 90s Cyclops or Colossus.

I saw their little sale, but sadly, the last four or five times I've been to TRU they've had the exact same stock of MU (and just about everything). That and I'm a bit skint right now. Woe.
Wait, when did Scarlet Spider come out?
Brodie
08-12-2011, 06:38 PM
A week or so ago. Saw it at target with Doc Strange and Doc Doom.
Similarly, I went to 2 TRUs last night and they had ****all.

Well s**t. I finally just finally tracked down all I wanted of the previous wave at the tail end of last month online, after finding nothing but 1 First Appearance Wolverine and a few Gladiators in stores.

I got the New Blood Jason Voorhees rerelase from NECA.
Great figure, and IMO definitely worth $10.

Yeah, that articulation on Pikachu looks phenomenal.
His eyes look pretty terrible. Ash looks neat though.

Well I was referring to Ash as I'm sure you know. He's pretty decent, especially considering the sh*t quality of most Jakks toys.
My pikachu's nose for example is basically painted into the mouth.

I Pre ordered the Hot Toys Spider-Man a few months ago and it just got here.
Excluding the 18 inch Toy Biz one, this is the best Spider-Man figure of all time. So, so worth it.
