I have been an Aircooled VW fan for decades, and Im on my 3rd (1:1 scale) car now.
I have been collecting these toys for at least the past 25 years.
I sold all of my Hotwheels blister packs, but kept all of these (plus) and I still don't have enough room in my curio.

From last night to today, Amazon's ML ROM listing page looks like it's back in stock, but when you log in to buy, oops, none to sell.

I don't understand the extreme popularity and demand when I don't think there's been any comics or cartoon in ages of ROM.

Well a lot of Gen-X'ers who're now into collectables remember the comic and are going bonkers over the new figures. Man, I hope they don't make the Dire Wraiths (Rom's enemies) were super creepy.

I vaguely remember ROM had some buddies who had their own armor or color schemes. I barely remember anything from the old comics.

Yes, Rom's girlfriend volunteered to become a spaceknight to fight the Dire Wraiths. Her codename was Starshine.

How in the blue blazes do I just have instant recall of this stuff from when I was a kid?

Yeah I like the color scheme, purple and teal. Haven’t seen something like that in awhile. Monster High uses too much pink in G3 imo so this is kind of refreshing.

So I got my Mega(TM) Godzilla set in today.

I'm 3 bags in and seriously feel like committing a war crime. These fucking instructions are complete ass.

That being said, I do like there are no stickers and some of the building techniques are pretty cool.

EDIT: for some reason this didn't post and that's probably a good thing.





Turned out kind of cool, but really bland color wise. 543 pieces and had to take apart sections over half a dozen times because the directions where freaking horrible.

Still not bad for $37 and it's freaking Godzilla.

^ I think Megabloks makes Pokemon too, so maybe Charizard wants a shot at the title.

Never got into Pokemon. Would like to see him up against the D&D Dragon.
