JADA TOYS General Thread

Man, I always love adding to my Christmas collection, but that price tag is a TOUGH swallow. I'll probably break eventually, but it's far down the line as far as my toy finance priority goes.
Feel exactly the same way. I have a shelf by my front door and I like to swap out the figures on display for the seasons so I’ll probably cave but it feels a bit hefty
 
I got the old "Pre-order processing soon," email from BBTS for Frosty. I am somehow both excited by this one, but also have lowish expectations.

I am expecting the figure to be pretty good, but I also have mixed feelings about getting the email from bbts. At the price, I was not planning to get the figure, until my son saw it on my phone as got really excited for a Frosty figure. He has probably forgotten about it at this point, but I'm still torn whether or not to cancel my pre-order.
 
I should clarify that I think the figure will be fine, but I don't see it earning that price point, but maybe I'll be surprised.
 
I got Frosty in today. He's mostly as expected. He's very lightweight which gives him a bit of a cheap feel, but the presentation is nice and the joints are all smooth. They hit him with a slight pearlescent coat of paint to give him a little snow-like shimmer so he's not just bare, white, plastic. At first I thought his head sat too high, but it's on a double ball peg so you can just rock it forward to close any gaps present. Waist cut doesn't really do much so I question the need for it. Legs don't do much of anything, but I don't think folks were expecting a ton of posing potential out of him. Hocus is cute and his head comes off so you can put the other hat on him. Balance is tricky so I wish he had a stand. He also is mostly bare, white, plastic and could use a little extra something. Yeah, probably overpriced by a good 10 bucks, but I do find this goofy snowman incredibly charming so the price paid isn't exactly weighing heavily on my mind.
