Star Wars OT basic figs : I've been trying to stick with just the classic stuff, with a focus on ANH. I'll occasionally dip into PT stuff (usually for BAD parts for ANH droids I want)

Star Wars Galactic Heroes : Pretty much anything from ANH.

DC Universe Classics : Been a completist so far (with the exception of that Wal Mart wave) since I like all the BAF's and actually know most of the characters. This will probably change once all the big names are out of the way.

MOTUC Classics : I'm in it for the long haul with these as well. MOTU was my first toyline as a kid so I'm loving this line.

Marvel Legends : Mostly just filling in holes of key characters that I missed back in the day. Not much action on this front.

Transformers : Trying to pick up a couple stragglers from Classics/Universe. Also grabbing a bunch of the movie bots that I like the designs of, though theres just way too much of the stuff to bother being a completist.

Other Stuff: I grab the occasional thing from some other lines, occasionally NECA things that catch my interest...etc. but not much.

The Legacy Collection / Re: TLC Millenium Falcon

I finally cracked on one of these things, I've been to many of the local brick and mortars lately and they only had one left at a TRU at 30% off, so I figured I should grab it now before they're gone forever. Man oh man this thing is a beauty, huge, detailed and fun to play with! I feel like I'm a 10 year old in 1977! This is easily the crown jewel of my collection, well worth every penny!

The Bullpen / Marvel Universe

I don't suppose anyone has an extra MOC The End Hulk  that they'd be willing to part with? I've got almost the whole set but this one continues to elude me, and ebay seems pretty scare apart from loose figures as well.

I went ahead and signed up for the subscription sevice...knowing at least 2 of the 4 figures is ok by me, I don't mind getting a couple surprise ones, that and I know I'm gonna be away on the sale date in November so I figure what the heck....not sure if I'll renew the subscription by next year though, I'll wait and see how seelouts go once the Sept-Dec stuff goes on sale, maybe they'll have hit the right production number so it's less of a hassle to get them by then.

i think Zodak not seling out may be due to a number of factors, one being the character choice himself. Second, there was an increased shipment for Zodac which wasn't split in two like it was for Mer-man so the demand didn't seem as frenzied and many people got more Merman's than they'd wanted due to the site bugs giving people duplicate orders. Some people got as many as 30 when they'd only wanted 6-10.....plus it has been speculated that the resellers got burned with Mer-Man, thinking there was more fan demand than there actually was due to the fast sell-out the first time due to the site glitches. Theres still a ton of these on ebay just sitting there. It's my hope that maybe the shipping increase coupled with the site glitch being fixed will mean there's enough Hordak to go around.

Ordered mine smoothly for the first time in a while. It's nice to see a figure actually be in stock for a while for a change.

I believe July is Tri-Klops, and August is Man-At-Arms.  :)

Other way around, Man at Arms is July and Tri Clops is August.


I'm gonna be biting the subscription, I've gotten all of them so far, I might as well finish off the year and theres only two left to be revealed so I think the odds are good that it'll be good ones. I'm tired of the hassle of trying to score against thousands of other rabid fans, ehehe.

It doesn't really look more 200X per se, but incorperates some design elements from that version (the extra spider arms on the backpack, more eyes.) He uses the Skeletor body like the original figure did, so he lacks the spidery proportions of the 200X design. Either way though he looks pretty cool, a nice blending of design elements from both worlds.

In other news, for those not in the know, Mattel is offering a subscription service, which goes on sale near the end of May for the September-December figures, so anyone worried about not getting thier figure will be able to rest easy on the 15th of every month. Theres more details over at Matty Collector.

The Legacy Collection / Definitive character list?
« on: May 12, 2009, 10:45 PM »
Does anyone know where I can find a complete list of what individual characters (including different outfits) have been made over the years? I've been trying to fill in the gaps of my A New Hope collection of late but it's gotten quite large so I'm not 100% sure on what I'm still missing. Any help would be great, thanks!

The preview figures are supposedly being put out by various Wal Marts across Canada for anyone who is interested. I picked up Soundwave tonight, cool little guy, though I'm kind of hoping he gets the voyager treatment at some point as he's very short.

I don't actually have any of the figures in the Endor set so I may just pick it up. It's the only one that I have any interest in really.

The Legacy Collection / Yknow what I find kinda shocking?
« on: May 4, 2009, 10:22 AM »
That between the time we got our last Ben Kenobi between our current one, that Hasbro never repainted the spirit Obi Wan from the OTC into an alive version. I think everyone predicted they would at some point. Heh.
