Yeah, his Gormiti name is "Incandescent Phantom" but I call him Plasmus since that's who he looks like to me.

Gormiti figures are SO MUCH FUN.
I've collected them twice before dumping my collection twice. There's soooooo many to collect, but they're pretty much all dirt cheap too.

I personally think the Italian company that made them was inspired by BattleBeasts...Even the elemental forces in conflict theme that's a part of the Gormiti lore/mythos is quite similar.

Hope everyone is well; I've fallen into a bit of a TF collecting hole lately. Here's the latest addition.

Some Super7store MUSCLE yesterday I now have at least a sample of each line. I missed the initial red of Iron Maiden ones but while watching a red pack on Ebay that was at a few bucks, black ones appeared on the store site. (That red pack ended up going for about $20.)

"This is some real pretty **** now, man!!"
Of course I had to get the 3-pack with Bill Paxton's character, Hudson.
Under coming soon, Shogun Figures is still listed and there's a new addition of Lucha Libre. So more actual MUSCLE wrestlers coming sometime! I just hope they don't do too much of the huge head and short body proportions.
EDIT: I just noticed that Iron Maiden is the only one to ever override the MUSCLE font.

Woah those are cool! Oozarian Bognar, especially with the one head, looks like a modified mutant of He-man himself! Looks like you got an alternate head to make Abyssal Demon Warrior look like Cthulhu.
The sum of two packages today (while getting easily over a foot of snow), plus the 9 Super7 figures from two days ago.

24 awesome Kinkeshi from Kayfabe (23+1 bonus) 14 MUSCLE from ebay. And the Super 7 nine.
You can see the last column of 4 kinkeshi would be Super Rares if they were MUSCLE. More common as kinkeshi but still really cool, bringing my count of those to 17 of about 21 and 10 of those 17 are full size vintage.
I always open my Super 7 3-packs carefully with a razor on a few sides of the plastic. I do have an original MUSCLE 4-pack I keep sealed. Unfortunately the Robotech and Aliens wave 2 flesh color are like MOTU wave 3 which is a little too close to the awful rancid hot dog color Megaman ones. They still have good detail though, unlike the Megaman. The wave 2 actual Aliens have much more detail on their heads than wave 1, but are lacking some detail elsewhere that wave 1 had.
EDIT: Comparing in better light, the Aliens wave 2 flesh has a more pinkish tone and looks pretty decent. It's still a little too glossy looking though. Robotech while a pretty bad color, doesn't have the annoying glossy look at least.
I remember when I was a kid, a neighborhood kid got a green caped six-armer (who I now know is Ashuraman's father) and we were like wow! Now I got it and a transparent green keshi of him at the same time! Got two more awesome acquisitions of Buffaloman. The box to the board game taunts us with the existence of a green MUSCLE of the 20 Million Powers style one and now I have a cool keshi of him. I like MUSCLE green but the Keshi shade of green is the coolest. And now I just need one more grape and one more green of the boardgame figures, but at least I have a green keshi of the green MUSCLE I'm missing.
Freaking awesome:

Look at the Vice's eyes glowing. Eating Gyudon (or Cow & Rice in Ultimate Muscle) is my favorite sculpt of Suguru Kinnikuman though not sure my pic captures the chopsticks very well.

Hey, if you ever want to make unreasonable, crazy demands as in the movie, Airheads.... Demand transparent green Black Noodles. They will have no idea what you're talking about but they might try to make them for you!
You gotta respect a man who serenades his food.

I had one as a kid, and wanted to get him back, ever since restarting my collection back in college.
Now I need to get my Lucky Yucky.
Latest mail delivery
It still baffles me that OMFG was able to replicate the proper Pink, but Super 7, the people cranking out OFFICIALLY LICENSED M.U.S.C.L.E. product, can't.

Got these in the mail today (they came as a set): Two vintage Red Part 30 #408 (my second; If anyone is dying to have a Part 30 Mammoth Man #408 I might be tempted to let it go) & #409
The Red #409 has me two sculpts away from having a complete all Red vintage Part 30.
It also puts me two sculpts away from completing my second 418 vintage Kinkeshi set.
And finally it has me at 285/418 Red vintage Kinkeshi total.
Thats a big deal to me only in that I never imagined ever completing a 418 set, let alone having two or having any single sculpt from Part 30

From the MUSKLES guy or Inventions from Another Dimension. This is an awesome figure and my favorite version of Geronimo. And for my patience, he rewarded me with a bonus Superman. He's still working on the six-armed Laughing Hyenas Kung Fu Beast.

Firstly the parcel from Ericnilla
The GITD Anomalies I was chasing, I must add a massive thanks and a huge thumbs up to Ericnilla for stepping in as a middle man to enable international postage on these. Also I picked up an awesome full red colour set of his GPK s2 Cheap Toys. A much needed GPK s1 Flesh Double Heather that puts me at two needed for a Base colour set.
Secondly an ebay purchase
A Thundercats Felino/Wileykat figure I've been chasing for over 2 years uncarded

I got my A-Bomb today from Hasbro's 3.75" line. I'm calling him a frost giant though, because he looks more like the frost giants in the Thor comics, IMO. And I got a Rhino too...
