The rest. Some bent and damaged cards. I don't know, what am I gonna do with these othersized cards anyway? The only way to get these mint for MOC displayers is through either ebay or Pulse itself.

Baroness seems to come with Cobra Trooper(?) weapons, they have the pegs on them to be stored on their back, so that's kind of lazy. She is jet black removable glasses, but a peg is in her head if the glasses is out, the guns are black now. I like the figure. It's Baroness. She's in black leather, hot and has weapons.
Destro has a big different in the way his head is, the eye brows, his necklace has silver instead of gold, they also didn't make that gun holster completely red, so that eye sore is removed, the suit case cobra symbol is uncolored, but the money is a bit more good looking on the instead, the computer screen shows a mars logo, also mars logo on his belt. I think I like this version better, but I've seen other opinions.
Gung-Ho is huge. Biggest GIJoe Classified figure, looks much better, but the scale is a bit big. The tat is always controversial, but it is what it is.

That reminds me I was watching some old MacGyver* episode and there was some expo/carnival booths with some laser target game and the laser pistols were SHOCKWAVES or knock-offs in gun mode. *I prefer to think the new MacGyver doesn't exist. Shockwave appears in the movie ALIENS (maybe a couple of them?), he's on the table in the science lab, the Radioshack black version...if I remember right, he's not completely transformed. I played with those Soundwave tapes last night, they're pretty neat...beautifully painted. I was about to post this, then the door knock...a box, I open it up full of Transformers...another knock Several more boxes, full of Transformers :-) I'm pooped...all I could manage to do was briefly inspect a couple things...Arcee is cute in car mode :-) Also, part of my order from Target, Marvel Legends Rogue...she's beautiful, and the cards on these are really nice and crisp.

Today's finds, a 50 cent incomplete Playmobil dentist set...yeah. medical theme again. And Origins Sorceress was $13.49 at Meijer...I somehow talked myself into that and into opening the card (it was partially unglued). They had Buzz Off, Evil Lyn, fleshy Stratos and Jistu as well. Jitsu seems to be a pegwarmer exceptionale, since they had like 5 of him at Target (full price). Oh, boy, is the deluxe Masterverse stuff just clogging the shelf there...almost like they had stock for once. Spin Master 4" DC was under $3 but just a lone Superman left...passed. Recent Batman movie figures also $3, briefly considered Selina Kyle but nah...

The TMNT News box set got here...has a ding in the box, but oh well.
Box art is a vintage TV set with April's face on the screen...very nice.
Extremely overpriced for what it is though.

I looked at the news pack again... think it'd be easier to swallow at 120 even. That'd put each fig at 30 bucks, plus packaging and accessories. Agian, a bit easier. The moment you get up to 150, I need something amazing to justify that.

The moment you get up to 150, I need something amazing to justify that. My favorite toy purchase this year so far, hands down is NECA 1/4 scale Donatello. Most fun toy and well worth the money. Makes you wonder why even bother with these other toys...no joke. Donatello even cost less than the News Box set. Which I'm not thrilled with the price...but for Irma ;-)

Few more items today arrived
Kenner classics Ghostbusts, the 4 main guys and the Marshmallow Man. The cards are beautiful...it was always so easy for me to open them before...they just look so nostalgic. Really hope Hasbro releases the rest of the line.
Couple of the Neca Building sets got here...I haven't taken them out, but they're big and heavy. 2 feet wide, and 2 feet tall with the backdrop.
Also, Marvel Select Sabertooth got here, he's pretty huge....best looking Sabertooth I've seen.
Marvel Legends Storm, black uniform version. Marvel Legends Beast, gray version.
Select Sabertooth is bigger than Legends Beast.

Got the Machine-Robo versions of Go-Bots I ordered. Cy-Kill, the light blue teal tank...I already want to paint it dark blue, but he looks good! And the Mixer truck.
Also, xtransbots Quintessons got here...I need to get some batteries for them still...but the Quintessons are pretty big!
Here's a couple videos of what they look like in action :-)

Went to the store today, I never do this...
I didn't get anything, but I saw some stuff that was tempting
Origins Panthor Flocked $40 Seems pretty high to me, but I may be wrong.
Even saw some retro reaction figures at Target...Duke, Major Bludd, the dark blue Cobra Commander, Lady Jaye.
They looked pretty good!
