I don't think there's another toy thread in the forums so your collection is as good as anyone else's here :)

It's a good collection and the setup is much better than anything I have.

Silver is his Ultra Instinct form. If you don’t like these, then Dragon Ball Z/Super probably isn’t for you.

This the tease where he hasn’t fully attained the form.

They added a final unlockable to the Sentinel for a last push.

16k backers unlocks a Tri-Sentinel head. It's currently at 14.6k.



That means if you want to display each head variation you need to buy 6 Sentinels.

I only watched the original version of Z up to the end of the Cell Saga so everything in the franchise before and after those end points is completely baffling and foreign to me.

Those're WCT figures. They're pretty nice for the size/price. About $12 at retail, 2" or so, and really nicely detailed.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. :unsmith:

Nice! My collection is pretty sparse and I mostly lurk the thread but you and I have the most overlap I think. Pretty much all I have is Dragonball Figuarts and Revoltech Gurren Lagann, with a stray MonsterArts Godzilla and a couple Gundams. Got a few WCFs on my desk too!

Waiting on that Oozaru Vegeta to come in and gently caress up my whole set up...

I slimmed down the Dragon Ball collection a few months back, and I think I did it just in time. That Vegeta is no joke. He needs a whole Detolf shelf to himself!

There have been some non-Revoltech Gurren Lagann figures coming out lately that look ridiculously nice, but have some hefty price tags. I'm happy with my collection, but they're tempting...



It's close to $250 before shipping, though...

Or... 4?

The Tri-Head is a specific sentinel head look, the head itself is the display, the faces are supposed to rotate as needed. Kinda loses something without the wings it's supposed to have, though.

This is probably true. The previously stupid hard to get Seeker 2 pack just restocked at stores all over the country and online.

I cannot verify if this is true or not, but someone posted on a facebook group that these are set a certain way in Targets system to have them auto order / restock once sold out.

In all my ML collecting, I don't recall store exclusives ever really getting restocked. So I'm skeptical this dumb Cobra Island line will buck that trend. I can see these figures get re-released with different decos in the main line. This more classic Baroness is an obvious redeco for the real one they intend to release based off the promo art. But this is going to be the Baroness everyone wants instead.

I had no idea G.I. Joe would be so popular in 2020 after being close to dead for 2.5 decades.

I gotta dig around, but I might be able to scrounge up another ~$100 for destro.

Again, I have done NO RESEARCH on this, I just know that the baroness figure looks cool, and I still hate myself for missing out on the Cobra Commander that had the faceplate and the globe squishing hand.

You can drop me a PM if you decide to sell em. If you find a buyer willing to throw a ton of cash at you, dude go for it, I'm not gonna be upset.

They are going for 250-350 each on ebay right now. I've got a set of them as well because I love that baroness figure, hard not to sell them though.

I'll be honest, I never find anything decent for any lines out here in the Chicago area. 9 times out of 10 the shelves at all the Targets/ Walmarts have been picked clean except for a handful of peg warms. Now that I think about it the only time I find any decent exclusives is when I go to Gamestop, but their markup is always too high.

Yeah that has mostly been my experience as well. I have gotten most of what I got either by ordering online or my friend who lives in a more rural area has picked them up for me. Only stuff I have had real problems with is the Walgreens exclusives.

My experiences of the greater Chicago area have been fine so long as you’re out in St Charles or so.

I saw exactly one back in the day, which I bought. Him and the metalized Mando are the only non-Neca Target exclusives that I've ever seen just one of in the wild. Hell, I even saw the ER seekers more than once (though not since).

I want Baroness, yes, but if I can't get her for retail it won't be the end of the world.

Now, if she glowed in the dark, that'd be a different story.

Yup. Easily my favorite Batman figure ever (until the black one is out next year and replaces it)

I don’t think I’ll ever need another comic book inspired Batman figure. Though I’m totally down for more Mafex figures based on the DCAU and the new The Batman movie.
