Yo Joe! Cobra!
What does 2022 have in store for our wallets and space and emotional needs? LOL

At some point last year, I got Career Opportunities on DVD and shortly thereafter, it was released on Blu Ray. Oops. I finally upgraded.  |

Whatever I can find on clearance.
Are the new O-rings going to be Hasbro Pulse only? Will that make more or less likely to get any of them?
Will there be anything Star Wars related I will go to any effort to get? (Last year, there apparently was not)
Will I bother with any MOTU anything? I dunno.
Will Five Below ever get anything good again?

Quite an interesting comic book lot!
I really liked Cable on the animated X-men series.

  Green Goddess is very nice. Her green goes well with the Castle. Still not quite she what role she actually serves. Not really a fan on the Spector Creative explanation. Hmmm Stinkor, another meme character. A shield he can't hold very well and the smell is very weak. Not a great figure. LOP Beast Man has no weapons, but his figure really leans into pro wrestling. I like it. Webstor's string is hard to account for. I do like him visually, but hard to really do anything with him with the string all over the place. |

Well, that sucks, Swindle. Isn't this the second con thing you've had problems with?
You're spirit of Grayskull looks better than some others I've seen.
I wanted Lords of Power Beastman...actually I don't know what I want. I think I like that MOTU Origins exist more than I actually like the toys. That might be true of Star Wars and GI JOE now, too.

Yeah, with She-Ra, at least the arm was easily replaced with an extra retail version. I wonder if it's possible they'll refund me the entire Horde pack. If I got it for free, the sting of the head would be a lot less, but I kind of want the damn head. But they aren't gonna send me the proper head.
The Secrets of Greyskull stuff is probably the least of the con packs, but I do like the space suit for its outwordly quality.

FAKER!!!! Nice dude!
Bravo is right, your Spirit of Grayskull looks good.
That's a nice big lot for the Horde!
Goddess looks nice. Classics used transparent green plastic for the body.
I think they made a smart decision with Origins Goddess. It's common for the Classics Goddess to have bobble heads, probably a problem with manufacturing that kind of plastic.

The Horde packaging is really nice. The slider deal allows an outside look at Fright Zone/Slime pit, while the inside the depths of the Fight Zone, throne room as well as this pit that seems like basically hell. Buzz Off in jail. LOL

I prefer smiling Hordak over angry Hordak. Maybe it's a blessing.
The bad guys can get be pretty dark sometimes :-|
Fakers eyes are different. What is Fakers (robotic?) animal companions name?

Non-collecting report Meijer.
4 Cobra Commander's and 4 Lady Jayes. I think they were all there pre-Xmas, too. I think most Classified stuff would SIT if it arrived anywhere in quantity or at least the less scalpable characters. But then what was their two mass retail waves all of last year? One being for the Snake Eyes movie. The rest exclusives?
MOTU Origins, IIRC they didn't carry these, but there's the tag and still says $14.99...one figure pale Evil-Lyn with ripped hanger top and smudged paint on torso.
Star Wars Black 6 inch series. ESB card Leias and 1 AT-AT Driver. Old Yavin Ceremony Luke and Zorii Bliss. No 3 3/4".
Meijer's sucked since they rearranged their aisles/store plan. Shorter shelves, less stock. Actually, they probably sucked before that.
