Post a Pic of the last thing you purchased Vol. 2

Went to a toy con (NJCC) a couple weeks ago. Here's part 1 of the haul (accessories). And, yes, it's my first Grayskull.

Stuff from the last few weeks . . .

There was a Doom figure you didn't have?

He's got a lot of options. How are you displaying him?

I forgot I got these movies (and one game) at the same con (for $1 each):

@SC - he just came out. That version, I mean. Had him on pre-order the day he was announced.

Returned to Best Buy for the first time in like half a year or more last week. Dropped $100, but think I did well:

Jealous. I literally heard about him today--the pitfall of not having social media and forgetting to visit the Mattel Creations page.

@SC

You're only option now is evilbay, unless you can find him elsewhere for relatively low money. I think a friend told me about him first, or it may have been a Mattel Creations email/ad on Instagram. I think I'm pretty much caught up on all the bad guy Origins exclusives now, but I did have to get a few through ebay.

My last Amazon order was to replace my laptap that died (thankfully after I backed up my files). It's small and basic, but well under $200 and has everything I need (I stream and such from my iPad).

Yeah, I missed Frog Monger too (one of the Grayskull grate monsters), but I heard even people in the know missed him because he sold so quick. Well, if you hear something’s coming up and don’t mind, drop me a line.

BTW: Pixel Dan’s video on this one was cool. He did say how it’s a shame they didn’t do what the character’s real design is—He-Man’s cross made with Skeletor bones on the armor.

I started watching the Mandalorian from episode 1 onwards to season 3, and that included the Fett show, which is still, IMO, an excellent show as is The Mandalorian. Found these on BBTS and they arrived today: 20230423_171733.jpg

Stopped at Big Lots after my dentist visit this week and took advantage of their bargain DVDs and blu-rays:


The GL infinity cube fidget was featured on the Emerald Enthusiast's Youtube channel, but this was the first I had spotted it in person.
The Superman set was a lucky $5 find. I've had vol. 1 for years. Now, I'll be more desperate to get vol. 3 and finish the cartoon (though that's going for a fair amount more than $5 online).

So, BBTS is your supplier too? I have a shipment coming from one of their flash sales myself.

@SC, my apologies I did not notice your question sooner. The answer is "I shop at specific places according to what I'm buying". Lol

For BBTS, they are great for MOTU origins. My pre-orders usually arrive ahead of schedule and are immediately shipped out. I'm in a place now where I'm trying to cut down on Transformers because the price on everything has gone sky high. However, if there is a particular character I'm looking for, I will look at my 3 online stores to compare prices (BBTS, TFSource, Amazon) and see who has what for the best price.

For Transformers, it's usually TFSource because they seem to get in both HasTak and 3rd party faster than the other two, but I still check the other two anyways.

For everything else, it boils down to BBTS and Amazon based on what's in stock and what the price is. I.E. Star Wars, Universal Monsters, etc.

Since I'm a prime member of Amazon, I buy everything from dog treats to clothes to guitar accessories and beyond.

Oh, I should also mention I'm now a member of Pulse and frequent the Mattel site often, and this Friday at 9am, Origins Snake Mountain is going up for pre-sale at BBTS.

Speaking of Hasbro Pulse, this order came in from them over the weekend. It breaks my "rule" for GI Joe Classified of one-of-each character only, but for "good" reasons: (1) My (red) Barbecue took a fall and broke his backpack; (2) the two versions of Outback are different ages and although I got and liked the gray-haired version from Tiger Force, I also wanted the classic one that looks like Chuck Norris. So, now, I have a smaller shelf with the extra characters (because it would bother me to have two Snake Eyes next to each other):

I would never hold it against you, bud... Screenshot_20230425_232331_Instagram.jpg
Even if there were 47 versions of CC like Snake Eyes, I would buy them all.
