I've never picked up any of the Disney character stuff, but if they start doing Muppet versions - ruh roh :).

DITTO! I was never really into the Disney/SW stuff either but that Fozzbacca and Darth Gonzo are AWESOME! I'm totally down for those. This reminds me so much of the Muppet Babies SW episode...

I finally found the Bumblebee DLX figure. It's not too bad but it feels bit cheap for $10 if you ask me. The only other pieces i'm waiting for are Unleashed Prime and the Optimash Prime Potato Head...

I intended to limit myself this year but it has NOT been an easy task. So far i've been into:

- Kubricks/Bearbricks: I've been catching up on the 400% collection while waiting for word of new SW pieces. However, I have cut back alot and sold all my SW exclusives and chases in an effort to stick solely to the basic sets... As for non-SW, i'm eyeing the new Spawn and Alien sets as well as Bearbrick series 13 and any new 400% pieces that catch my eye...

- Star Wars: I've set a goal for the McQuarrie figs and a few basic figures. The coins have also really caught my eye and i'm hoping to get as many as possible...

- South Park: With my recent addition of Tooth Fairy Cartman, i've managed to get all the Cartman's up to date. I plan on keeping this up as long as they keep making them...

- Family Guy: With so much other stuff on my plate, i've failed to pick up the last series but the character selection is getting weak. I've decided to only get new figures and Peter variants. I don't think this line is going to go on much longer...

- Hellboy: The new animated movies have breathed some life into this license. I really only collect HB himself so i've picked up the Bust Ups and i'm waiting for the GG animated figures later this year. I might even cave and get the Mini-busts...

- Futurama: Now HERE is the line i've been waiting for. They're supposed to hit later this month. I'm going to try and complete the set with all the exclusives...

- G.I. Joe: The 25th line is looking sharp. As for now, I have the 2 box sets on order and plan on getting the carded Cobra Commander...

- Hot Wheels: BATMOBILES! The 1/18th and 1/24th scale drop later this year, they will be mine... After much thought, i'm trying to nail the whole Treasure Hunt set. I've had some great luck this year and might be able to make this a reality for once. As for the basic line, the cars are getting nicer and nicer and i'm finding it harder and harder to resist them...

As you can see, i'm not doing so well in the cutting back... :P

It looks like the animated Chewie has been revealed at C4.  Looks pretty cool.

 :o NICE! That will be my one and only Animated maquette. I still just really wish that GG could make a nice Chewie piece where he's not holding the bowcaster...

I stopped in the PO this morning and picked up my 3 sheets and they look AWESOME in person, so much that i'm thinking about framing a set. The clerk told me that each PO only received a certain amount and they were much more limited than other stamp releases...

SDCC would be pointless as they aren't allowed to straight up sell the Kubs here in the US, though I wish they would/could...

Well, i'm in a new place now and have picked up 2 of those nifty Ikea jobbers though i'm thinking I need another. Here are some updated collection pics:

Detolf 1: Chewbacca









Detolf 2: Mixed Favorite Figures and 400% Kubricks

Mixed favs & Cartman:

400% SW Kubricks:

400% Misc. Kubricks:

Hellboy (work in progress):


Now my wife had the idea of doing the bathroom in red/black/white so she told me to put any toys matching the description up. This is what I have so far:




The Stormtrooper makes sure you brush your teeth correctly OR ELSE!


It's all still a work in progress and i'm hoping to get another in the next month for all the regular sized Kubricks...

That Aliens boxset is amazing and a definite buy. All my Alien army building done in one shot. NICE!

I'm also stoked that the next series of Be@rbricks has the Pig-Head Jigsaw Killer from SAW as the Horror themed bear this time around...

I don't have any but currently have the Robocop 3 w/Flight Pack on pre-order. I wasn't going to get that version but it has a removeable helmet so that sealed the deal for me...

It means we wait until June 23rd for the next update... :-\

Plus that's the start date of the next Parco exhibition so it's VERY likely something will be shown then...

That new Aliens set is INSANE!!!

I picked up the Spider-Man 3 kubricks, both versions of Spider-Man. First marvel kubricks since the promo FF figures  :-[

NICE! Are they the HMV versions? I really want the 400% Spidey but I haven't seen them hit Ebay yet...

Speaking of vintage GI Joes, I stopped at a flea market in Absecon on the way to Atlantic City this past weekend and found this beauty for $10:




It looks to be complete and the Wildcard figure is STILL SEALED!!!

I still hate this show, but howbout this for a voter attrocity, Melindas out and the pretty bad 16 year old and gay guy are in the finale.

Wait, is he really? I had a theory and my wife thought I was crazy...

I'm actually pissed that Melinda's out. I still think that she is hands down the best female singer they've ever had on the show. The only good thing about her being out early is that she is free to do her own thing and not be stuck under their control for the rest of her career...

I'm not big into this line but I recently saw the Leia Boushh/Han 2 pack and had to get it. It's just waaaay too cool looking not to have. They really did a great job with this one, especially including the Carbonite Block...
