Those DB are looking mighty nice, Draz.

 

Thanks broski!

They're great little figures. I wish I discovered them sooner!

[ironmask]

I find that once people get their hands on some, they're generally hooked from that point on.

[Draznar]

I can agree with you on that!

(I'm just thankful that they're borderline worthless.)

Never thought I would see Moshi Monsters for sale again at US retail.  These are designs that were not sold in the US during their 2011 run, though undoubtedly common in the UK.  These are © 2011 on the figures and © 2013 on the packaging.  Distribution is/was by Schleich (another surprise).  Anyway, get to Tuesday Morning, they come in packs of 5 for $3. Four are visible and the fifth is hidden. Here are the contents of two packs.

You guys didn't see these?

Even Canada got to dip their feet with Moshi Monsters. That's wild!

I had that snail in gold, once upon a time.

Hmm. I wonder what figure of Dagarla that actually is. Perhaps the Yutaka release, since it never got a High Grade figure.

[Ridureyu]

The new TMNT movie is probably going to suck, but... but it's got Bebop and Rocksteady, and Krang!  The new Krang figure shows how determined they are to screw up their toys - he does't really fiti inside the robot, and the strain on the rubber will damage it if left inside.  But on its own, it is safer.

Not going to lie, I had to google that to figure out what you were talking about.

I'll take a peek at the writing on him and get back to you in a bit. It seems like a pretty legit figure!

I went and got it in hand at the store because Krang is the best bad guy ever. I was so disappointed I couldn't buy it. The paint on the android was so bad. Just looking at the fingers I noticed that 50% of them had no silver paint on them, the glasses the android is wearing were missing paint on the bottom part and it just looked so tacky. All I could think was if this was a vintage figure it would go at a beater price due to so much paint loss. The sad part was the figure wasn't so bad but the execution was terrible. I didn't want to pay to have it painted so I put it back.


Yours looks 1000 times better than the one at the store though so maybe it was a bad one. I may give it one more try.

I... caved and grabbed some Slugterra.  I must stop before it takes me over.

 

 

AND THEN OOKAMURO

[steverotters]

Slugterra is nuts.  I was never able to find them all.  The rarest one that I was able to find I sold for $90.  Wish I hadn't.  But still, I can't find them all, so whatever.

Boss Fight Studios finally sent their kickstarter stuff, so I got Medusa!

 

 

And from NECA, the AvP Grid Alien!

I had a great weekend this week!

Found my first Computer Warriors Virus at the bottom of the Anime bin at my local shop. I was only even digging in it because they had some Godzilla keshi in there one time.

These FANTASTIC How to Train Your Dragon micro figures, (yes, micro. Slightly larger than the Nintendoland stuff, but only by like milimeters). Packs of 4 figures, 3 of which are blind packed in the eggs, are only ONE FRIGGIN' BUCK at Wal-Mart.

This ZOIDS thing was at a yard sale for $5. I couldn't pass it up. I've really had an itch to build something lately, and this will certainly do at $5. I'm just hoping all the pieces are there!

Going to have to check for those micros, look nice, material?

 

Also, jealous of the zoid, I want some of the old school ones again. Got my boy into collecting Starriors a while back and that was awesome!

Firm but bendy is my best response. Not quite as firm as MUSCLE, but I don't think they're quite as bendy as MIMP either. Let me know if you can't find any! The two wal-marts in my town had heaps of them not long ago, and I don't see them moving any quicker at $1.

I was surprised to find the Zoid! Never seen one in a box, or even "in the wild." I don't collect them, but at $5 I would have been a fool to say no!

That's a great price on those HTTYD micro figures, I bought six eggs last year at Toys R Us for £4.49 each, and that was with 25% off.

 

I am sure I should have got 24 different figures from the six different coloured eggs but I ended up with a couple of duplicates, which is irritating.

[EpicusFuror]

Where in the store were those dragon eggs located?

[Draznar]

In the toys section. I'm going to assume our wal-marts are different, so that's probably the best description I can give you.

Keep in mind that I am also in Canada, so our inventory may differ. (I know you guys have all kinds of stuff that I've never seen up here!)

[DaHumorist]

Picked up some L.U.T.T.E.U.R.S. from Clawfreak. Super stoked about these dudes. Always wanted this 6-armed guy.

My final package from that Japanese power seller, (as he has come to be known), came in today.

I saw these neat Final Fantasy figures, tossed on a bid and walked away. I, obviously, won! Cooler yet: They're Coca Cola Final Fantasy figures, (what in the actual eff, right?) My Grandfather used to work for Coke a million years ago, so my family owns all kinds of really cool Coke memorabilia already. These are an AWESOME addition.

This (very tiny) Boba Fett bust. It's smaller than a MUSCLE.

This Japanese seller is the real MVP. No matter how big or small your order is, he always packs an extra. This time it was a build-able Oviraptor set.
