Hardtop. Has his mic. No gun. Came with miniature toy box of the Defiant :-) Maybe at some point I will try to fake a moon landing ;-)    Also got some upgraded parts for the Night Striker, so yay :-) Got a new fan case, and repo parts for the little arms that hold the missile launchers. Much better plastic than what they made these parts out of originally. Got the rest of the missing Night Striker parts on the way. |

Man, you are making a push getting some rarer figures.

Saturday finds, probably the last within-reasonable-driving-range city wide garage sale event of the season, used to find great stuff. This year, less people and my bad attitude (I needed to stop and eat lunch but didn't, because...cheapness) that made me quit earlier than usual.   They had more 90's Batman, but all Batman and had play wear...don't even know why I got that one. |

What is the red headed skull guy? He is the most interesting.

One of those Roadchamps motocross whatever sets. They are the "bad guys" I guess.  |

 Wave 5 and the Wind Raider. Just came. I really have no place for these He-Man figures and I just keep getting more and more. I tired to Pile of Loot game these and it never worked. Ran out of days. Cards are unpunched, ashame I am an opener. Wind Raider is HUGE! Evil-Lynn is definitely an upgrade over the Simpsons version of her. |

An eBay lot that came. 5 more chipped off Excalibur. An Uncanny and 2 Spider-Man to round out the order.  |

Yeah, The "Spider-Man" comic was made for Todd McFarlane as a showcare for him. Then he left Marvel. Larsen followed him on it and did a six part "Revenge of the Sinister Six" and I believe there's an issue with Beast where Spider-Man is searching for answers if he were to have a baby with MJ.
Once Todd and Erik were both gone, the book really served no purpose as it was supposed to showcase the A list Spider-Man artists. I added those two issues just to fill out the eBay order. I'm not really focused on Spider-Man collecting.

UK Tiger Force Tunnel Rat.  You can kind of see the theme of this box, each tray is going to be a sub-team. Marauders, Tiger Force and Night Force.  Fixed the fans on the Night Striker...still waiting on a few things. Those fans are so delicate, every single red piece has multiple pegs and if one of the pegs break, ruins the whole part. I strongly advise anyone thinking about getting this, to pass and not get this item just because of the fragility of all of the pieces. Makes it pretty frustrating when a piece breaks.  |

Tiger Force Jinx always reminds me of Battle Cat.  Good stuff, Felix. I can't even imagine how all this vintage stuff is costing you. Night Force Whale coming along. |

Thanks :-)
I was going to pass on the sub-teams, and getting any foreign figures...
But finding those tackle boxes, a voice was telling me to get them and use them for Joe's :-)

    Wellll... this came today. LOL Why do mail tracking tell EE they lost the pack, why did it arrive a day after EE and I settled this? The EE package was VERY beat up whatever happened to it, but the Turtle pack was fine within it. I have no complaints for what they are as retro reproductions. Nice slice of the 90s. I was never a fan of Shredder as an action figure. His pose is the most unnatural and his eyebrows creep me out. He gets no unique weapons on his weapons tree and its odd for him to hold them. Splinter looks like he has his nose in the air. Raphael has a slot on his back of one of the generic weapons from the weapons tree which I find surprising. Favorite Turtle: Donatello |

Looks like fun :-)
In the arcade game, I always chose Donetello. Bow staff rules :-)
The turtles are so great :-)
I got the rest of the parts for the Night Striker, even stupid little motorcycle. One tab on one of the fans is still broke, but holds in place...pretty amazing to get her completed.
Also some Marauders showed up, Barbecue, Mutt, Footloose and Lowlight.
*Sigh* Lowlight is missing part of his thumb. I try to be real observant about stuff like that. Oh well.
Also got a Devilfish, never had one before, always liked these, so it's great to finally have one :-)

Vintage Shredder is just awful, I guess they didn't want him towering over the good guys, but that pose was too much.
