    G.I. Joe Classified - The Best of 2025

    I take a look at Desert Scorpion almost every time I'm in Target, but not ready to buy yet. Out of the figures I bought this year, I would go with these ten. I disqualified Mindbender and Bludd because they were too close to previous releases. Almost everything else I bought can be considered...

    Blokees Transformers

    I've never seen a sealed case at Walmart. No matter how many are on the shelf, they always crack them open. I did try scanning the case barcode, it said, "see associate".

    G.I. Joe Classified - The Best of 2025

    Just thought of something, I haven't bought Snake-Eyes and the Polar Bear because I don't really care for that Snake-Eyes and I haven't bought Desert Scorpion because I don't need a giant scorpion. The perfect two pack would be Desert Scorpion with a Polar Bear. I'm waiting on a discount.

    McFarlane Spawn

    That's the thumb of a man who knows how to play the long game. I went to see No Other Choice at an out of town theater because it wasn't playing at my nearest. Then I stopped in the Walmart nearby to see if they had this so called $50 - $60 Spawn figure I've been hearing about. Reduced on 1/16

    Action Force and Valaverse

    I'll typically bail on a show, but Sutter had me staying to the end of SoA and The Shield is one of my all time favorites. Although, I can't remember if he stepped back on the last seasons of either show. Either way, I enjoyed both.

    Blokees Transformers

    One of the Walmart employees put out two unwrapped cases of Galaxy 6. Those are $1.24 each on Walmart com, so I figured I would see I could price match and buy all nine to guarantee completing the wave. I took it up to the service desk, asked if I could price match, and explained they should be...

    Action Force and Valaverse

    I'm sure I seen every episode of Sons of Anarchy, but it's kind of a ridiculous show. Katey Segal sings Bohemian Rhapsody on the final episode. One of the more amusing compliments/comparisons I got was from the woman behind the bakery counter. She said I had "movie star" hair. I think she was...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series: The Chatty Pointless Thread & Performance Art

    There was a non-animated take on a 1/6 Blue Eye Samurai shown, but later canceled. I can't remember if a reason was given. Considering the Chinese seldom get scared over copywriter reasons, I guess low preorder numbers. It got a good reaction from what I seen on the boards.

    Xesray Combatants Fight For Glory figures.

    I have to apologize for besmirching bbts' fine reputation. Hldr dropped in my POL.

    Amazon hit a price point on UE Shango/Warrior that was difficult to pass on at $37.95. This set catches me up on the Colosseum figures. If anyone hasn't seen them, the Colosseum Collection, has one of the packages I always regret having to toss. A heavy cardboard box holding two heavy card backs...

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    In one of the early 90s Fox shows, Tea Leoni played a wild party type girl in NYC and begins a relationship with a nerdy live at home with the parents guy. He takes her back to his bedroom, she falls on his bed and lets out an "oww". When she sits up, she pulls out a Don Mattingly Starting...

    I seen it much later, but Debbie Harry on Sugarman's Midnight Special from 1979 performing Heart of Glass is always worth a watch. I don't know about the outfit, but she pulls it off and I'm sure she was on some sugar at the time. I must've been 11 when I saw Blade Runner for the first time...

    Mr. And Mrs. Potatohead must be so disappointed, where did they go wrong raising their spud. Jesus, imagine scrolling Instagram and this pops up.

    Action Force and Valaverse

    @canprime I haven't seen the latest episode. That's kind of a surprise Weber left, but also maybe not really. Bobby is likely an insufferable jerk of a boss. Did Webber feel underutilized? What was his role, it sounded like he was doing a lot of order fulfilment, like packing and shipping. I...

    I think the two I have so far make nicer stand alone Transformers compared to the Aerialbots and Constructicons.

    Sometime between 6 & 8, I thought the lady truck drivers on BJ & the Bear were hot. Btw, that's not one of the ladies sitting on the door window by the mirror. That's Bear, he would drive around the country with his human, BJ McKay, in their 18 wheeler trying to avoid Sheriff Lobo. Then there...

    Age of Primes

    Target's sale put me on the road to Bruticus. Here's how it's gone so far. On Friday, I saw Brawl at Target, but didn't buy him because I wasn't committed yet. That was the same day I bought Starscream at Walmart and realized Walmart and Target are still at the lower prices. Brawl was gone on...

    Tracking toy tariffs

    KaijuDaddy's guest said he had something at Amiami waiting to ship since early December!? I took BBTS up on their tariff surcharge policy of refunding nrds. They said $30 would be added to a Verycool Mai Shiranui. That would push it to nearly $80 over Giantoy's price. Three to four months...

    Xesray Combatants Fight For Glory figures.

    It's looking like BBTS oversold on this one. Maybe I was too late or the algorithm is punishing me for too many Transformer cancellations. I don't need another one, but I could've got one from 5K when they released their stock after the 2nd payment window. My preorder is still up, but are they...

    I said my Nikki figure had loose torso, no idea what you guys are going on about.

    I guess the best we can say is we should have it sooner than BBTS. I'm still waiting on BBTS for SHF Cyclops

    The Nikki I got from RSC also had a loose torso. Sometimes I think Viet Nam doesn't fully have Mattel's manufacturing dialed in yet. I got Amazon's UE HBK today. I noticed I didn't preorder UE Rhea. I thought I did and now I had to order for the backorder window in April. Back...order...

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    I just thought of one of the mistakes I made as a seller. For the first five years or so as a frequent seller, any money coming in was going back out toward new toys. It's only been in the last three or four years where I've seen an appreciable decrease in the amount I have, mostly by pulling...

    Currently assessing my bagged and binned GI Joes, also should be in the market for a label maker because nothing is classier than labeling bins with blue painter's tape and a sharpie. Gotta work on cutting back on new Classified purchases. I was mostly happy with ML 2025 where I got down to a...
