Dom is a fantastic sidekick. One of those figures I hope to acquire one day but I don't really make it my mission.

If I get it, I get it. But he is pretty sweet.

[Ridureyu]

He's flexible rubber, too!

[fisheye]

I need to look for Spine. He is the sidekick for the X-Force Genesis figure. Spine was also made of flexible rubber/plastic. I might not even have it anymore. If so I'll have to pick one up sometime. 

 

Again, thanks for all the great memories. Collecting Toybiz action figures was a big part of the mid 90's for me. So many good times. To bad I also played with them to the point of most of them breaking and the paint rubbing off. I ended up giving most of them away or throwing the broken ones out. I have very few left. I'll have to see what I got left.

Second of my Masterpiece toys came in; Masterpiece Acid Storm. Never had many of the MPs when I was collecting (only a few had been released). Fricking love the strange and bright colors on this guy. I've been told his retool of the Starscream mold is a lot better.

Won this lot on Ebay for around $25 CAD shipped. (Each TIE retails for about $20 CAD, and the Lambda retails for $40 CAD.)

They've got these funky-as-all-hell paint jobs on them, but that can always be painted over. The ONLY downside is that these didn't come with cards or stands.

Funny thing is, Spine isn't even on Marvel's wikia (Dominic is, in case you're wondering).

[fisheye]

I spelled the name wrong. It's actually Spyne. And he is in the database. Weird they misspelled his name for the figure.

They're both cool none the less. 

[Ridureyu]

Well, Dom's name was misspelled for the figure, too.

Comic Day at my shop, my SH figure Arts Fujiko came is; smaller than I thought she would be, but frickin awesome. She comes with 2 extra faces, 2 extra sets of hands and a small pistol.

You've become the new Rid with regular "WYJGITM" entries!

You've become the new Rid with regular "WYJGITM" entries!

 

not sure if that's a good or bad thing. I run a comic shop so I tend to get fun stuff in now and then.

[Draznar]

I don't mind, I love seeing people's new stuff. Plus I get to see a lot of figures I otherwise would know nothing about. I was merely poking fun as he used to be the dominator of the thread. He's got some competition in you lately!

[BaltanII]

It doesn't help that I have been atrocious about pulling out my camera for anything. The things I could've been showing off the past few months (that aren't Magic cards)!

The battery compartment is unusable due to nasty blue battery leakage but the electronics on the old Kenner stuff was never too impressive anyway. The Interceptor is my favorite TIE variation and so far the only vintage Kenner TIE I own.

The interceptor is fixable!!! I have revived 6 Kenner star wars ships now all with blue battery terminals. All you need to do is soak it in white vinegar overnight. It will strip the corrosion and allow the flow of electricity. Those Kenner motors are invincible as well (Same goes for the lights). A Vinegar soak, WD-40 spray and about 5 min of manually spinning and that motor will come back. Seriously hit me up if you need help, they are really easy to get up and running.

So, I opened the mailbox to find this.

 

 

I did not order a pink skeleton from anybody.

 

Well, after some investigation, I found that this is connected to my Vitruvian HACKS Medusa by Boss Fight Studios - they sent skeletons to all their kickstarter supporters because they were late in producing and shipping stuff.  So hey, pink skeleton!

 

 

 

 

 

And then we have Darius, from He-Man.  He's... uh... he uh... they were going to make a toy, but didn't.  Fr the New Adventures cartoon that nobody likes.

 

 

 

And you can strip him down to his PJs!

Oh yeah!

I'm sure most muscle heads have one of these but I didn't.
Not sure why the pics keep posting sideway

Are you posting from your phone?

[ironmask]

Schleich mini Triceratops, Mojo mini Tyrannosaurus...

The Mojo minis are good... But the Schleich minis are on a whole other level with the sculpted and painted details.

So, the second set of those Five Nights At Freddy's mini figures came in - which means, of course, a review coming soon.

 

We finally got Freddy!  And Bonnie!  So the original group is now in.

 

And then there's the Balloon Boy, from the second game.  He's the only animatronic who can't kill you.  So just ignore those corpses back there.

 

 

And Springtrap the sole antagonist of the third game, which contains the putefrying corpse of a serial killer.  Of course it's possessed.

 

 

Apparently, the official soundtrack to Five Nights At Freddy's is just a voice screaming "NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!" for twenty minutes straight. Whoda thunk?

That pink skeleton is killer!

[fisheye]

Who makes those FNAF figures? I'v only seen the Funko Pop/mini versions. These that you got in look great. And your pictures never disappoint. 

 

I also like those poses you done with the pink skeleton. For some reason I think of Dark Souls when I saw them.

I did post from my phone but I always do and most times it's fine

Had some luck on a business trip this week. A few Sunshines I rescued from the wild (shout out to A New Hope Comics in Madison) and a very special addition to the strange and mysterious THOR LORDS line on the left was waiting on my doorstep when I got back home. (Shout out to fkro for the heads up on that auction, I'd have totally missed it otherwise)
