So my Chinese ebay purchases arrived...the last Ebay Buck usage...that what was it, 31 cents? Hey, it movitated me. Technically incomplete, no shoulder armor or belt. I can borrow the belt from an extra Overkill. Of course I just promoted him to Emperor. This is formerly Copperhead's club, after all. Punk ass won't fit in vintage Water Mocassin cockpit.

Copperheads Club :-)
hehehe :-)
The Water Moccasin has a special memory for me. My parents got it for me, and when we got home, my mom, dad and sister were so excited about putting it together...to this day, I don't know why, lol, but they were. I remembered not even caring about the toy, and standing back watching how much fun they were all having together from some little toy boat that was supposed to be for me, and that made me happier than anything else :-)

Cool that the China seller purchase got to you, Bravo. Poor Copperhead, definitely one of the glossed over early Cobras.

Snoopy is a vintage toy from the 60's or 70's maybe? It's hard to tell with copyrights on toys.
The crates are Burger King kids meal toys from Kingdom of Crystal Skull. More on those later.

Web of Spider-Man comics are pretty cheap looking around on eBay, but it is one of his b-list titles, not his flag ship title, Amazing Spider-Man. I remember as a kid selling alot of my Spider-Man stuff because I was deep in X-Men and Spider-Man was stale and getting into the Spider-Clone Saga. A lot of the Amazing Spider-Man issues I used to have are pricy these days, so I do regret it now. On the other hand, they did do One More Day which damaged alot of Spider-Man canon. I so remember that Mary Jane cover as a kid. LOL Pretty cheap haul off of eBay, but took quite a while to get here.

I got some more Mythics stuff while I was gone...
Xylona, the ivory deer chick. *This falls into the category of things I never thought I would be getting.
Faunus, I might as well say it now, Tree-Man.
Goblin King, he rocks.
Gwendolynn, kind of gold female knight.
Shadow Elf Malachi, that anime prince Bravo pointed out.
Faustia, It's a red, black and gold female, with the insignia of Tartaria.
Delphina, female Templar knight (haven't opened yet).
And the green She-Elf.
I'll try to post some pics tomorrow.

Hmm... animal humanoid warriors kind of remind me of battle beasts.
Gwendolyn is a babe.
Where are you gonna put all those figures, Felix?
I did get Castle Greyskull today. Hmmm... I hate applying stickers.
Sorceress is a very nice figure. Good head sculpt, the moveable wings work well, and you got the bird detailing on her chest and crotch parts. Obviously, the cartoon version will trump this one, but it kind of reminds me the wise female characters in all white in some media properties.
Turns out Kronis uses a repaint of the gun included with the weapons.

I used to have the Temple of Darkness Sorceress for Classics. She was kind of my Galadriel from LOTR.
"Battle Beasts" is a great connection.

*Side note* Lately I've been tempted to get the Aliens 1/18 Hiya Toys APC and Robocop ED-209, I think it would be great to have in the JOE world.

I put Zodac in the chair in Greyskull. The throne does have pegs to keep his feet in place. I got these off of a eBay storefront. Pretty cheap comics and it was what is called a cheap bin. All in pretty good shape. One thing is the seller seems to be a smaller seller, so he gave a card and some stickers included thanking me for my purchase.
