Picked up Origins Trap Jaw today.
Got some old origins loose stuff from my uncle's house too. Land Shark, Wind Raider, Thunder Punch He-Man...King Hiss.

The vehicles are pretty fun
Trap-Jaw is a neat figure, easy play patterns for kids with the different attachments. I think RoboCop being such a hit put Cyborgs in a sweat spot for children and surprisingly I can't think of too many big time toy cyborg figures. Hmmm

  So, it was supposed to be 15 issues, not 14. Seller forgot one. I contacted him. Good deals, though, 99 Cent auctions w/shipping 2 bucks about an issue. |

Yeah, they'll mail out the missing issue soon. The seller on hipcomic is legit and got back to me quickly.

Mistakes happen, that's just the way life is.
The question is, are they going to try and make it right?
Glad they are gonna fix the mistake, that's cool.

  Love the She-Hulk/Aliens alt cover. 40th Anniversary Transformers 1 with Skybound banner. Nice swimsuit alt cover for Wonder Woman. Typical helping of the Skybound stuff. |

NICE HAUL! Never knew She-Hulk took on the xenomorphs  Spider-Man and Secret Wars covers look outstanding. She-Hulk is a babe, lol :-) |

I think Marvel is publishing a Avengers vs Aliens crossover comic, so plenty of characters get a xenomorph alt cover (they aren't in the issue here, its just a promotional alt cover)

 There. She comes with a comb and some stickers as well. Scented. Her 'mirror' IP, I wonder if there's a Rainbow Brite fig out there (that isn't a plush doll type deal... hmmm) |

LOOKING GOOD! So, Jinx... display her with her masked, unmasked, unmasked with blindfold? I would go with the blind fold. |

Yeah, I tihnk the blind fold is the best choice, can take it off easily as opposed to a head swap

I made a trip into the city today, and low and behold... They had MOTU ORIGINS Filmation stuff and Turtles of Grayskull. I grabbed Raphael, Shredder and Mutated Ram Man. General Review: Ram Man is AWESOME!!! My friend thought he looked really cool too. Raphael looks better than I thought he would. Glad I got this version, because the next one they are doing does not appeal to me at all. His helmet, looks like he borrowed from Ram Man maybe and threw a turtle shell on top. Still not a fan of the giant sai, or the sai arm attachment. But I do like that his leg wraps are red. They didn't do anything special for Michelangelo's, his are just bland brown. Like c'mon Mattel, it isn't rocket science, 4 turtles, 4 colors. Shredder is very evil looking. Mini-Comic is foreign, so no word balloons. Here is my interpretation of the comic, please don't read further if you do not want the Turtles of Grayskull mini-comic spoiled. OKAY, LAST CHANCE!!!! :-) He-Man takes off on his own...
Turtles are hanging out at Grayskull while Man-At-Arms works on the turtle robot.
Michelangelo shares his pizza with Man-At-Arms maybe.
Raphael and Leonardo are either arguing or sparring.
Beast-Man tries to sneak in, and Teela knocks him down.
He is in a jail with Mouse Jaw next to him.
Beast-Man tells them how sad he was at Snake Mountain, seems like Skeletor and Krang get along great.
He tells them they are mutating their friends.
And helps lead them to Snake Mountain through Eternia sewers/tunnels.
Surprise, it is a trap. Beast-Man double crossed them.
Mutated He-Man attacks them with Moss-Man, Mer-Man, Ram Man, ect.
The Talon Fighter shows up, and the turtle build a figure robot jumps out.
He holds off the bad guys, while the turtles and Teela hop in the Talon Fighter and escape.
Turtle robot looks doomed with the bad guys closing in.
Turtles and friends are back at Grayskull...but hanging out in front of the castle.
Teela consoles Man-At-Arms about having to leave turtle bot behind.
Some kind of spooky noise is coming from inside the castle and that's the end.
