Just got delivered.

Mezco One:12 DMX Supreme Blackout Bats.

Had to put a pic of my cat checking it out.:lol:

Lucky, I really wanted that one. I would've traded him out into my Mezco One 12 Justice League, I like Ascending Knight Batman, but I like this suit design and these darker colors much more. 

I got in a package from HLJ, after hearing about disappointments with the first Figuarts Mando release I was worried, but he's great, a tad fiddly but he looks fantastic. The Child is a bummer, stellar faces but super fiddly, the cup accessory is a pain and nearly pointless. Toei Spider-Man is great, his faithful robot Leopardon as well! A week before this rerelease was announced I almost bought the original version, glad I waited, Spidey's henshin device is a cool addition.

After the recent talk in the 1/55 thread and the constant itch I always have, I went ahead and just found a decent deal and bought another one so I can open and play immediately instead of digging through my collection for my old ones. More CFs never hurt right?

@sqidd You got plenty of room for a Cobra Hiss! :D

Right!!!

That to me is probably the most nostalgic GI Joe. When I was 10-12ish my grandmother sent me one out of the blue from across the country. I had no idea it was coming. I got home from school one day and it was just there. I loved my grandmother like a mother. I miss her a lot.:sorry:

The other one for me just because it was my favorite was the the F-14 Skystriker. I'd like to have one of those too. No idea where I would put it through. I remember it being HUGE! Any idea how long that thing is? Your brother has 37 of them right?:lol:

 

UPDATED:

Cobra HISS purchased. They're so cheap, why not?:unknw:

@sqidd Since he gave me a skystiker I have the measurements of it.  It’s 23L x 15W (wings swept back) by 5H.  23W with the wings out.  
 

I got a 25th anniversary Cobra Rattler coming next week to dogfight with it!! :p

Thank you sir!

I think the Skystriker would have to hang from the ceiling. 

Is the Rattler the A10? I've always loved the A10's.

25th anniversary Rattler was a target exclusive.

Target.....Wally World.......whatever it takes.

Let's see if you get this pop culture reference. This by far my favorite "shop guy" thing to say.:lol:

Same here. But I just can’t justify it for all the real estate play space it would eat up.

Who knows maybe I’ll change my mind later on.

LOL, that thing is measured in acreage!:lol:

Another Marvel Legends Movie Wolverine and a Matchbox Audi R8.

My 5th Marvel Legends Storm and Thunderbird set.  2 arrived from Target yesterday and I’ll pick them up tomorrow.

Regarding GI Joe vehicles, I’ll get most or all of the ones released in the Retro line and if they rerelease the same ones as before then I’ll be sure to get a Rattler and Skystriker.

I checked my collection and I must have passed on the Skystriker reissues back then.  The only 2 Skystrikers that I have are of Starscream and Jetfire.  I somehow missed the last GI Joe Transformers set but I’ll be sure to get it.

A couple of JetFire's just landed. The one in Fighter mode is actually a Matsushiro. It has a Macross symbol on the wing. It's on B+ shape. I have some re-pop stickers on the way. I'm 50/50 on getting it opposed to a real JetFire.

Holy smokes JetFire's are starting to go for some pretty big money. I was bidding on a few auctions that went up past $500 and then some. Those were with boxes. But not perfect. Finding one in decent shape without a box is tough. I had one that was bright white in the box about a year ago and sold it for some reason. I should have kept it.
