My last box from the Pulse sale included a D&D Gelatenous Cube, glad to get this... figure(?) on discount, it was a late addition to the sale.

Got MOTU Vykron from Mattel Creations yesterday.

This morning I found a TMNT reissue Wingnut and Screwloose at Walmart.

More of a non haul than a haul.

Had the d&d gelatinous cube and gi joe classified mindbender on preorder. Mind bender was taking so long to be instock that the cube has been available on sale. But me being good, I kept my preorder which had deposit paid.

Indemand finally gets mindbender instock just before I was in America for three weeks. No invoice for the remainder to be paid. So I'm back, I have my remaining d&d toon figures from them though typically as I'm keeping boxes for them, some of the packaging is a bit damaged. I ask about Nindbender and they say its not instock anymore, they would have invoiced in August last year (they didn't, coz they haven't had mindbender instock before as far as I know) and can be given store credit for the deposit.

I've got a payment reminder from hasbro for serpentor (card issues coz bank) but with the way joe lines treat over here it's just another thing that says I might be best to stop with classifieds. Mind ender will prob be on discount as some point so I could look at it's just money saved. *that and to never preorder anything from hasbro pulse events ever, ever

Well... I'm going to have to contact hasbro and see if they will be okay with a wait on payment for Serpentor because my bank thinks when 'some one' buys tmnt and heman figures with it, is fraudulent suspicious activity for the 10th time...

Out of scale sentinel to go with my legends but it's a nice figure anyways and the 50% off is icing.

Wild force putrid, on sale despite uk starting to be gi joe on the rangers stuff and at prices I don't really want to be paying for them, so £14 a very happy purchase. - if the paint on the figure isn't anything like cover girl

Found TMNT reissue Genghis Frog and Baxter Stockman at Walmart this morning. Now the Foot Soldier is the only figure left that I want to get.

Small box (though it could definitely been a lot smaller) from AmiAmi:

Movie Compilation "SSSS.GRIDMAN" Rikka Takarada Articulated Plastic Model Kit


figma Fate/Grand Order Berserker/Mysterious Heroine X [Alter]

A shame that Prime Day doesn't apply to Japanese figures.

Had some good luck this morning. Picked up a MOTU Origins Roton for only $13 at Walmart. I don't know where these keep coming from, they must have had tons of them in the back, there's always more being crammed on the shelf. This time there was four on the bottom shelf of the MOTU section, another four further down on the middle shelf and 3 more of them on the top shelf over those. And that doesn't include the four that I saw in the clearance aisle a few weeks ago, those had the big yellow clearance stickers on the front and none of these had stickers just shelf tags.

Also found Target put a bunch of MOTU stuff (but not everything) on clearance like Sun Man 3 packs, Masterverse NA He-man and Beast-Man. Picked up the Revelations Deluxe Man-at-Arms for just over $16, glad I held off!

Randomly found at Dollarama, the Power Attack MOTU figures from that alternate universe show.
Bizarre design, but at only 5$can each, I took He-Man and Skeletor for representation.

Was going to pick up crosscut and decided i don't need another transformer and ended up with (too lazy or maybe creating more effort from not using my phone, with images from da web:

WWE superstars ring (sadly not for walmart superstars though it is the same base masters of the wwe ring) which I'll use for the Hordes ring, maybe customise it.



Another ALter Nation figure Quillroy, £5 for a 6 inch figure that will stand with my motu classics/masterverse. Bad seem lines on his head for the mohawk rubber spikes part but hey ho.





Home bargains has more of them in -frog guy dart which includes a little kinda m.a.s.k sized human and a smaller albert VII figure which includes fotnite style weapons for whatever reason.

and a pop up parade Maki Zenin (not for me) but for £25 at TK Max of all places it's cheaper than me buying a bishoujo as a gift.

Completed what I wanted of stardust memories-a whole 2 models! Gpo2 to go with full berniers Gpo1 as most of the show is gp01 chasing gp02. The final battle gundam is expensive and not sure if they ever did the final battle villain in scale or at all.

Sadly same can't be said for Zeta, which I thought I'd completed my must haves today. Still need Chars rick dias and I'm tempted for two more villains mecha.

Just starting on ZZ mecha but most of zetas suits are in ZZ so I have a head start and the build fighters mock is just for fun.

So, I've been working on my Toy Story collection a bit this year.

In order of acquisition:
* Mr. Potato Head, with the parts set the movie referenced (minus the eyebrows/alt mustache). Plus some two extra pairs of eyes, an extra tongue, an extra toothy smile, and an extra round red nose.
* Disney Store Jessie, minus ribbon and hat. Was listed as working, but I haven't been able to get her to work despite there seemingly being nothing wrong with the voicebox. Anyone have advice?
* Disney Store Rex. Works fine, looks good, no complaints here.
* Toy Story Collection/Signature Collection Bullseye. Missing the stand, but I got him for $23 so I can't complain too much.
* Disney Store Woody. Unlike Jessie, he did work. However, my non-working (despite my best efforts) Lots of Laughs Woody has significantly better print quality, vest coverage, and belt buckle and holster sculpts, and also doesn't have his arms forced into an A-pose by stiff stuffing and seams, so I wound up transplanting this Woody's voicebox to him, relegating this one to a stunt doll.

Three things.


Cobra kai putty, generic enough just to be a putty in a Halloween costume apart from the big cobra kai logo on the back of him that actually makes it less karate kid some how. Nice figure and I'll get more of them if they are ever cheap enough to do that.

Web armor flame proof spidery. Dunno if the original figure bio was as wrong as this release. Says ceramic metal armor when really it's just his adjusted improved web fluid. Also no web shield with this release which was part of a firing gimmick on the original but something he used in the comics too. The silver is very shiny and it's too nice a suit to pass up on.


Motu slamurai. Not being able to remove his hood doesn't bother me unlike the ninjor figure. If going retro have all the retro features dang it. But for this guy it's fine, the paint if the face looks like a painted face rather than a face under the hood. Other than that, the white and blue really pop on this guy.

Still a little sour about Entertainment Earth cancelling my King Hiss and basically screwing me on the price of the Talon Fighter as a result so I ordered a CG series Talon fighter on Amazon marked down to only $17. It showed up Saturday for a quick turnaround.

I don't really have space for motu vehicles but the CG series Talon fighter looks nice. Megablocks point dread does me for my origins castle topper but I'll end up getting origins point dread at some point.

Built my two koopa troopers up, wondering if TurnA gundam could be painted up as Mario.

Got Ninjor in the mail last Monday. No sword, but with what I won him for I honestly can't complain too much.

I went to the dollar store to buy some glue for my customs. Then lo and behold, (The first wave?) Of some Masters of the WW Universe Origins MOTU Wresters.... At 5$can (3.79$US) each!

Well, don't mind if I do.

I wonder if they got those from Walmart? It's not the first wave UT it does seem to be the one they produced the most of. I'm guessing they thought everyone would be after that Goldberg and Ultimate Warrior.

Those were Walmarts exclusives and were clogging the shelves for a long time. Especially that girl.
What Dollarama got is most likely some overstock that Walmart no longer want. By looking a bit on eBay, I saw some clown asking 200$ for these four!
But I also saw that Mr T exist in this line and it's a shame I missed him. He's one of my childhood's heroes.

I wasn't clear, I meant more along the lines of Walmart Canada website overstock, they're still available on Walmart.com here on a perpetual clearance.

At walmart.ca, there's only ONE. Stephanie on clearance at 10$CAN.
Dollarama is yet to be beaten.

Warriors a nice figure, best thing is two punchy hands to swap onto origins figures

Two more deluxes down with out paying over priced. Thankfully skeletors dragon is 100% retro play and squirts water unlike cobra khan or the dragon that came with Ricky steamboat masters of wwe figure.
*The chains really nice quality, can see the padlock being a bit fragile.

Snake face loses points for not being retro play but most of the figure looks entirely new pieces/parts. It's def nice enough to buy two for each display option but shelf space and all that. He can have a staring contest with Mantenna at some point.

I got the namesake of the Hammond collection himself

Rolf Harris?

I got something in today that I have been eagerly awaiting since last November: the "Checkers or Wreckers" Ross Chastain 1:24 diecast car, commemorating the highly memorable "Hail Melon" move he pulled. He was already my favorite driver, and that move cemented him as my favorite for a good time to come. The diecast reproduces the final raced version of his car, including his wall riding damage

Got my SDCC MOTU Masterverse Revelations Motherboard today from Mattel Creations.
