I dunno which part you're laughing at.

Target sells a KO of the IKEA Kallax that people seem to like. Target card might get you free shipping.

Stopped by Target to check in on the newest toy offerings and they got the new Playmate Star Trek collection in. I actually think I saw everyone in the sets represented except for the Discovery cast. Couldn't help myself and picked up Picard. Not bad for $12.99. The facial likeness is pretty darn good!

I live in the rear end end of the rear end end of nowhere near IKEA, was the laughter.

Seriously though thanks, genuinely, for the help. I'll have to check out Target- though the nearest to me is an hours drive give or take. But that's still more doable!

I have a complete mythic collection including the dozen. I have all the Gothitropolis birds and timekeepers. Need four more scarabus. Working on that and seventh kingdom. Need six minotaurs, an elephant, the boar, and four from the female wave. Are you (or anyone else) going to legionscon?

Yeah I have three Valgards and two Eathyrons. Told you I was far down the rabbit hole and put rhyno to shame!

Just got around to unpacking angry chippendale's Superman and other than the wonky arm he looks surprisingly good.

Not a big fan of the grey at the temples but to be fair, he has been through some poo poo lately.

Really glad I got in now, so I can get the rest at retail.

FYI, not sure what the market is like today, but people were paying about $100 just for the packaging on this set at one point. If you don't keep your packaging it might be with selling to recoup some of the cost.

Same, we need to have a conversation about how weak I can be when it comes to cool fantasy toys.

I just snagged that huge troll that went up with the latest wave on BBTS, a cool vampire lord, what I assume to be a tribute to Scare Glow, and preordered a pair of evil Templars.

This is on top of Poxxus/Phlogeon, which I preordered, and a whole loving swack of the all-stars wave five I also preordered from ML's store.

I don't want to keep them carded. I have a pair of detolf shelves that are coming my way this Friday, and I'd like to display them that way.

I know saber collecting is an easy hole to fall down, but I think I’m pretty happy with the 3 main Jedi styles from the OT. Zero interest in any prequel poo poo and the sequel trilogy is kind of ehhh.

It's just a third or so of my carded figures. You should see my loose collection!

Aphrodite posted:

One of my goals was to have enough bodies to display all the alternate heads for each character. I have my last one of those in the mail (extra Deltigar). At this point I consider my Mythic Legions set to be complete. I did some legion building with some of my favorite characters. Plus, I generally go to shows so a good 2/3rds are either wholesale from FHM or retail from BBTS (got a lot through the Advent of Decay sale). And I bought a good number of lots so a fair bit came from under market value on the rest. Once I get the last from the Gothitropolis and Seventh Kingdom lines I'll likely not buy any previously released Legions. So everything will slow down and be cheaper on pre-orders. There are still a few figures I don't have carded but I really don't care about cards despite what you see. I eventually plan to take everything out but wanted a complete set picture first.

Also realized I've had this good boy for months, and never took any pics:

They're comparable to amiibo size. Knight and Hornet should 100% be in the next Smash Bros.! :argh:

You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it.
While everything else seems to keep getting delayed, my Hot Toys Boba Fett (Repaint Armor) came in last week.





And this week came the Hot Toys Iron Man Mk. 46 reissue for Hot Toy's Shanghai store grand opening.





I'm a bit disappointed the reissue doesn't come with the Tony Stark head or Captain America helmet, but instead a redesigned diorama base I'm not going to use.

Oh speaking of, have you spotted any reasonable pre-orders on reliable Japanese sites? I moved my Cloud pre-order over to a Japanese site thanks to your suggestion but am just about ready to just pre-order Tifa and Aeris direct on the Squeenix store for FOMO.

Not yet. I’ve been keeping an eye out, but put in a BBTS order for now because they’re very easy to cancel with no questions asked, and I’d rather pay the $130 each than not have them ultimately.

drat, I was holding out on putting a pre-order in on BBTS but I bit the bullet too as I'm with you in that I guess I'm okay with paying a bit more than not end up getting them.

Time again for more Sailors. Jupiter was always one of my favorites, but Mercury's been growing on me during my rewatch.


My Sailors so far:


I have Moon and Uranus sitting in my PoL on BBTS, so I only need two more, Saturn and Chibiusa. Unfortunately, they're my least favorite. But I've come this far, so I may as well finish the set, right? :shepspends:
