Arctic mission, so Storm Shadow wears less white than normal. Makes sense.

Found cheap Playmaterss 90's Trek mint but they have little resell value. Still I (boldy) got the ones I never owned before...  $15 for all that. They had 20 more carded figures probably. |

I always hated the quality of that style of action figure.

It's a spotty line. You can tell that by Tasha Yar's big almost cartoon head. Early figures were strange and preposed. It got better later, but then they started dropping articulation, either for cheapness or because they realized most people never opened them. I've seen more carded figures than loose ones over the years.

Yeah, seems like either on card or into a young child's toy bin.

Last major city wide sale of the summer, and this year it disappointed. Less sellers, the place that always had junked vintage toys had nothing old. But found a few things. I got 8 of these for $5 and the newer red one for 50 cents. Dooku Lightsaber is worth something. They haven't reissued it since 2005, I think.  These were freebies from friday (not the HISS 4, though)  GI JOE late run issue with original trading card for a dollar. HISS 4 at another sale for 2 bucks (no missiles, driver or plug in sound attack weapon)  25 cent figures, 10 cent Batman and a free not really working Tomy wind-up chick.  |

Baroness booty on the cover! Silver Destro in his IG outfit seems so odd to me. Cute dinos. Hmmm, what do you do with all this odd stuff, Bravo?

Hoard it. LOL. I need to decide what to do with some old lego, or well, any legos. The dinos might be combined with others and sold at some point. The monsters are keepers. That Tim Mee toys armored car is maybe worth something even with the barrel tip damaged. The fridge magnet numbers were with the LEGO bricks, I'll see if they are worth anything or have them given to someone with young kids. Hopefully. All the lightsabers were to resale. I rarely mess with them, but I needed some ebay fodder. And I have sold some in the past. Forgot about Taun We mint on damaged card for a dollar. Same guy's had this out for the past 5 years. He wanted $3 but he went down to $1 eventually. He had a bad Luminara Unduli and her Padawan from that era on bad cards, too. But I passed...I went too long without lunch to make a good judgement.  |

 Well, nice mail call from my buddy. Last of the Target wave. Good thing I outsourced it to him as I would have only been able to find crazy man RB at my local Target lol. |

So not getting Cobra Commander?

Cobra Commander is apart of Wave 2 (GH/CC/RN)... my collector friend will get those through a distributor friend of his to save a couple bucks. Apparently, Red Ninja is 1 to a box, CC is 3, and Gung-Ho is two, thus, Red Ninja is going to end up being the rarest.
I also have the alt CC and Pimp Daddy Destro on order at the Pulse site. The only figure unaccounted for is the third alt of CC which should go up for pre-order soon enough.
I don't care about minor variants... color of Beachhead's eyes or minor paint differences on the Cobra Trooper.

That's the hitch with collecting all... even if a figure is a notch below... in a group, epic.
