This is on Amazon, I can't pay those prices though.

AmazonSmile: Star Wars Anakin's Jedi Starfighter Green ROTS with Action Figure: Toys & Games

I saw a Lego minifigure scale version of this Jedi Starfighter with Anakin in store, but I'm just going to wait for re-issue of TVC version.

Yup. Car got some speed, although one of my fantasy cars can go head to head with it. I only have the blue one, but I heard there is a red and another color that may be out. Haven't seen it yet.

I'd guess the trucks or Tooned versions with oversized wheels are fast.

Had to stop myself, bought a Bowen Sabretooth and a Kobayashi Wolverine for my shelf.

Then I wanted this, wanted that. I’m tired of money pits. Instead I invested another 5% into my Roth.

I'm going to tune in, but expect junk pegwarmers like new characters similar to Snoke, Rey, Jyn Erso.

Slave I demand will probably go up. I heard on podcast the Amazon exclusive one from few yrs ago was as low as $20, but shipped in TVC box with labels stuck on it.

Leaning towards not pre-ordering Star Wars Black Series Archive re-do Thrawn. Doesn't look exciting enough.

Wonder if they will keep the dad bod on a eventual new Boba Fett figure.

It's all over the place to be honest. Often times the 5 pack sets have fast cars (fantasy or real). I would say the majority of my top 20 fastest cars came from a 5 pack. There is a 2019 5 pack of trucks I want because I heard one of the trucks is super fast, but I just never saw it and don't want to pay double resale price for it. So hard to find stuff most of the time since scalpers take them all first. It's ridiculous and sad at the same time.

Here the scalpers are many and are very fast and thorough. Whenever there's something good or Japanese, you'll be lucky to see one once.

I didn't notice dad bod with the Tusken Raider dress/skirt on. I like the fresh paint job on the armor, but I prefer him wearing pants instead of skirt. KK better not retcon Boba into a crossdresser.

Didn't buy any TVC or BS Cara Dune, but likely will pre-order Fennec Shand/Ming Na Wen.

If Disney is smart, they'll mix in some cool old characters and old vehicles that Hasbro already invested money tooling into the Mando show. I'll buy a Slave I and a Jedi Starfighter (let Ahsoka have "borrowed" one before leaving the Jedi Order). Maybe multiple weight division Gina is to sell a fatter Cara Dune figure next year so collectors will have to buy fat Cara and fatter Cara.

Got an email last night my Kenner Hot Toys Vader finally shipped after a nine month delay.

Cannot wait til it gets here.

1st impression: I'll skip Black Series Bo-Katan.

2nd thought: I'll try to pre-order Bo-Katan. I like the color scheme and looks like new casting, not looking like re-use of Sabine tooling.

3rd: Is it available late or did scalpers wipe them out instantly?

4th: Successfully pre-ordered Bo-Katan after seeing it appear a while after the Archive pre-orders went up.

So is there only one Mando Monday left after the season finale?

Saw a G.I. Joe Retro Scarlett by itself with creased card. The face doesn't look as bad as in internet pics. I'm guessing it was a Walmart.com order that was returned due to damaged cardback. If I see one again, I might buy it. At least face doesn't look as bad as Baroness.

Hasbro will do 10 inch GI JOE figures in their cheap kids Titan series line. Sad part is they look more like the classic figures than their current more collector oriented classified and the retro line LOL.

got into an eggnog white russian induced bidding war w/ someone who had an auto thing set up until i eclipsed their limit w/ $89 for this Ghost Rider action figure:

i’d love to have this thing for my Nicolas shrine, but i was sweating for the few days i held on as the winning bid. i cannot in good conscience spend almost $100 on a goddamn action figure lol

 

[GSP_37]

I'm gonna skip the G.I. Joe shampoo bottle figures since I'm already committed to 6" and 3.75".

I did see Best Buy had a lot of the xmas Black Series stormtroopers and Credit Collection Heavy Mando.

My boy just got in his Snake Mountain and I am jealous. It looks so freaking cool.

Side by side with the original.

Dam I want one.

 

[ModernMatt]

I miss my old ninja turtle toys sometimes. Wish I could show them to my kids haha

Same, i started buying a few of them in package from eBay...so far have Donatello, Slash, Super Shredder, Ray Fillet, Metal Head

 

[ModernMatt]

No longer collect toys, but for a brief moment in time I bought/sold/traded in toys.

Full original TMNT line, mint in packaging.

Full original G.I.Joe line, mint packaging.

Transformers, 80's/90's Marvel figures/trading cards/comics, etc.

All of it.

I used to do really well attached to my grandfather's coin business. We'd go to coin shows all over, and I'd make a killing on the grandsons of other old coin collectors.

How much did you make from the TMNT line?

Which is the original? One is way bigger. Is that the current scale available at Walmart exclusively? I only bought He-Man and Skeletor and that's it. Didn't open them yet.

Original is the small one Mattel. The one that will be released at Walmart will be that size.

The Big One was a Kickstarter one by Super 7 2yrs ago I think and just now be shipped.
