You can get those at TRU, back near the videogames somewhere. My local TRU has a bunch that's been pegwarming for a long time.

Roses...and just $2!!! Aren't they STILL $15 at other stores?

Not a toy, but definitely toy related.. Came in from Amazon.com, Robotech Extras DVD #4

it's not much, but I'm looking to just complete my Robotech DVDs collection, and I only need a few things.

Picked up another BH Sharkticon Megatron to open for display as I vastly prefer this one.



Scored a MOC McFarlane Endoskeleton from eBay for $15 bucks. I already have a few of these in my collection but there's nothing wrong with building an army.

Another Toy Related DVD came yesterday, the first DVD in Robotech.

Mine original was lost a decade ago, so this is a replacement to complete my set on the shelf.

I picked up a couple blind boxes today. Snagged a vinylmation Disney Wild West Huey. Pretty awesome for $2.99

Also tried my luck with the Funko Horror Mystery Minis. Got Sam, which is better than I expected.

Aside from that, I also finally tracked down a decently priced Runaway Brain Mickey Mouse UDF. Goes well with the Sorcerer Mickey & Tron Mickey I got a while back.

I just bought the Hot Toys Man of Steel Henry Cavill for $199 after a promotion from sideshow. Should get it in February. These things are almost sold out.

Sega Master System and Game Gear Arcade Gamer Portable
I bought this today at Family Dollar because of the BOGO50% off sale, and will play after I warm-up and dry-off (it's been raining all day today).
Has anyone else bought one of these? I was sad to see there was no SD card port, as I recall there were some GENESIS portables that had that feature, and if they aren't going to make a retro slot to let me put my Game Gear games in and play (like they did with the SEGA GENESIS TV PNP 80 Games System) they should at least put a way to let me upload the roms of the games I own...right?
Well, $30 for 30 games is good enough for some fun.

Guess. It's the BIG HUGE THING that everyone is getting, and it only can be bought online (not at a Wal-Mart)

I don't think so, the image on the back of the box, with the contents is below(click it for a bigger pic, I always put front-back pics of all boxed toys on my flickr)
Week-End Hauls:
After getting the Sega GameGear/MasterSystem,

I pursued the Sega Genesis 2013 Portable Game Player:

WWE Disco Ball Battle Pack with Naomi and Cameron

Hot Wheels Race 2014 Night Storm HyperTruck (I like translucent stuff!)

DVD Fantasy 14 Movie Collection

BRD The Goonies

It's marked 2010, but I could SWEAR that this summer there was news that it is TO BE RELEASED by autumn...???
Either way, I'm excited to have this on BLU-RAY, because THIS DVD is the reason I HATED DVDs when they first came out. The DVD had compression artifacts on it(looks like pixelation) and that was weird for me to see, since you NEVER see that on Laserdiscs.
The Laserdisc has been elusive for this, at least at an affordable price, so I've been hoping for the BRD of Goonies. Don't get me wrong, I still want the LD of Goonies, but now the search is not as pressing.
whoa! I thought CEDs ended marketing before Goonies would have come out, but I guess not! In 1986, the CED came out: http://www.lddb.com/ced/00740/11474/Goonies-The-(1985)
The LD I want is the Letterbox: http://www.lddb.com/laserdisc/09070/...nies-The-(1985)
Not the Pan-and-Scan.

I got some neat stuff for my birthday.

My girlfriend got me a UDF Stitch, and some Duck Tales ornaments. Along with another Funko Horror mystery box. Leatherface!

My mom sent along a New 52 Skinned-face Joker figure. Its amazing. And made better that my mom is the one who sent it.

Aaaaand, because the prices were insane, I ordered myself the 60s era Batman & Robin set for $13.

Okay these aren't my "most recent" purchase.... but I recently found them again!

What's funny is that I got them within a week of each other from 2 different sources and cities (one was in a bin from a storage locker auction and the other at a garage sale for 10 cents)

Anybody else remember these Transformer wanna-be Happy Meal toys from the 90s? I remember thinking they were so cool, was really stoked when I accidently came across these two. Nice Blast from the Past!

Got two Tom's for Christmas. Had to open one. Switched to a true type narrow shoulder body, and handmade aluminum sonic. It catches the light better than the BCS one. The factory body was nice but a tad short and loose right ankle.Factory hands also fit nice on the Hot Toys pegs. The ankle on the BCS body has a different barbell than the hot toys. So have to use the HToys barbell which needs to be sanded a few microns to fit the Baker feet. The BCS barbell has the ball on one end and rod on the other. Also the case with the neck. I had to warm the factory neck with hair dryer to fit on HToys neck joint, snug fit but no floppy neck.
