    Third Party Figures

    I have one of the Romankey blanks out for delivery. With the cold and the snow, my mail delivery has been a bit wonky lately with an occasional delay by a day, so delivery today is not a guarantee. Questionable action figure instructions. This one's from a 1/6 Verycool Mai Shiranui:

    Wrestling Toys (Mattel WWE, Jazwares AEW, etc.)

    Target put up their WWE preorders around 3am eastern. I missed Austin's LJN. I've been up since 4:30, but who knew 🤷 Do you know how many whiny complaints I've heard over the years from west coasters because Target preorders are up at 6 am in their time zone? Just thought of something, this...

    Toy Reviewers/Influencers

    I remember an early Storm Coll. Tyris Flare review. If it's still up and anyone tries to search for it, you'll instantly know this must be the one MrBo is talking about. Is it Johnny Nostalgia? He's grown on me recently. I've been watching some of his reviews even if I don't plan on purchasing...

    MPG Line

    I can't speak for third party MP style Soundwaves since I don't have one, but the official Takara/Hasbro versions are mostly the same figure. That includes the current version on preorder, MPG-19. I see people complaining this new release is the same mold from over a dozen years ago, but I still...

    Missing Link

    I went with BBTS for my Grimlock preorder. Tfsource has had him at $150 for a while, while hlj and Amiami were around $100. But with BBTS at $120, the price will be really close to one of the Japan stores. I'll just wait for BBTS stock. Even the exchange rate has the yen up compared to USD, right?

    MAFEX DC Figures

    A few points from Kaijudaddy's talk with a source in his "Sinking Ship" video. Mafex trying to crush CT with reissues. He says they're obsessed with CT Toys, compares it to Ahab and Moby Dick. Higher prices on new releases balances the law requirement to sell reissues at the original price...

    LPZZ Toys (UPF)

    Feels like a I've been waiting forever for Deathstroke (from gundammit) and SHF Cyclops (from BBTS) and the stores just happen to come collecting their money on the same day.

    Mattel DC Figures

    The other "kiddie" I used to buy regularly until they took away the ankle articulation was Hasbro Mashers. This might kill any interest I have in buying these DC figures Mattle Ankle Trivia: Which Basic wrestler continues to get the old style ankle articulation?-- Hulk Hogan

    Mattel DC Figures

    They have double jointed knees, that's a step up from WWE. Their basic figures seem to have ridiculously stiff single jointed knees in recent years. Non-articulated ankles looks like a carry over from WWE. I hate that because they at least had pinned up and down movement for nearly 10 years.

    Deathstroke seems like old news, but I got the payment request from gundammit.

    MAFEX DC Figures

    I canceled all my Japan based Mafex preorders with the tariff uncertainty, immediately preordered Rogue at BBTS (and recently at Amiami), but the only other figure I re-preordered was the Punisher. Not buying an Iceman or Jubilee would've been unthinkable a year ago With Mezco, I sold almost...

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    Someone allowing Hot Toys Joker to be dipped in chocolate milk could only be the result of a marital dispute. I would expect this sort of behavior at a Waffle House, followed by a flying chair, and someone filming the fracas in portrait mode. The eBay listing would be interesting. No box...

    G.I. Joe Toys on Sale

    The last Classified I found at Burlingon was the Roadblock with non-gold shin armor. Must be two or three years ago. I find Burlington to be a step above Marshalls/TJ Maxx, like there's an occasional chance at finding something good in toys. I could use that pack since it's one I've passed on.

    Harvinger Studios, Savage Crucible

    @Damien I found the Spotlight and I see @TheSameIdiot also chose a Savage Crucible. That's a little concerning, am I going to immediately want another right after the first one arrives?

    Harvinger Studios, Savage Crucible

    I've been wanting to test out one of the human barbarian type dudes. Took me about twenty minutes to settle on Warrior with Ball & Chain.

    I got Summer Slam Chyna from Ringside. This is one I was planning to wait for Target/Walmart/Amazon, but then the new articulated waist was pointed out on the RSC livestream and I had to preorder. I don't know about that hairdo, I can't recognize it, maybe it's from the day she didn't blow dry...

    Star Wars TVC Discussion

    Last night I ordered a Padme while waiting in Target to checkout with Shaak Ti. When I ordered, I think it had an early February date, but now it's arriving Saturday when the wind chill is -20 degrees, but before Sunday with a forecast of 10" to 18" of snow. Hoth like conditions.

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    I feel like the source protection is mostly specific to Hasbro. One reason why I don't watch early release videos. I don't see it as much in 1/6. "Limited to 1,500? Who the fuck cares, this store has it or try that one."

    Studio Series

    My current Transformers collection is very small and Megatron was delivered the day after I found Thundercracker, so it was a little jarring having those two so close together, and going back and forth playing around with them. I still have Coraonation Starscream from a Walmart clearance, but I...

    Wrestling Toys (Mattel WWE, Jazwares AEW, etc.)

    Target moved a stack of AEW to a clearance endcap and there was a Roddy Strong I was interested in buying at the right price. I scanned him, but it came up as not on file. That usually means it's not going any lower and will be sent to a Goodwill Store. I noticed a Target employee working the...

    Tracking toy tariffs

    @altcunningham Down here, I get a second tracking number for the local carrier. I'm waiting on something from Giantoy. They send an email with tracking for the overseas carrier. If I copy/paste that number into 4px.com, I can see a second tracking number, in this case, USPS. Then I can...

    G.I. Joe Toys on Sale

    What was the price on the Polar Bear with coupon? When I click the link, it's $81.39 shipped and sold by Amazon. I might as well go to GameStop. What am I funding other people's coupons?

    Age of Primes

    My Target had the Ultra Magnus, Bumper, Horri-Bull, and Nemesis Prime pack down to $27. Not something I was necessarily planning to add, but hard to pass up at that price. It had a $76.49 clearance sticker and I gave it a scan just in case, expecting to see 50% off. $90 to $27, not bad.

    Wrestling Toys (Mattel WWE, Jazwares AEW, etc.)

    I might have to buy the Outlaws if I want the Charles Robinson parts. During RSC's holiday '24 sales I bought the re-releases, "From the Vault" versions. Those would've been good enough since these aren't a huge upgrade. The Vault version of Dogg had some iffy face printing, maybe a little too...
