Got these 3 figs a while ago from a friend for 50 bucks shipped.
Glad to fill two more gaps in the TCW lineup plus my first complete Lava Miner from 2005.

Nice to see some folks getting some Star Wars items. I have been sick for almost two weeks. Just starting to recover. Man, thank goodness it was the holiday break or I would be out of sick days!

I'm glad you feel better, Shawn! After a rollercoaster of a week, I can recover a bit today. It's been a lazy Saturday and I use the time to share some posts here.

Before I miss out on the most sought after TVC figures once again, I bit the lemon and bought some of them at full price at a Comic Shop across the country. I got free delivery and the seller packed them well as always. I thought before I pay full price on HasbroPulse or Amazon, I support a local vendor.




19.90€ a piece is a tough pill to swallow. Their quality make them worth every penny though.

LOL. If you can believe it I got covid last week! It has been a year for me to be sick evidently. Feeling a bit better now. See you are still finding some goodies.

I got one of those Disney parks First Order short range evacuation vehicles for $50 minus the droid. It's kinda cool, sort of, in It's own way.  I guess it's an escape pod like thing, but I'd like to make it into a ship or something. It doesn't have landing gear or anything to sit on, so it's wobbly. Lights are cool. The sounds I don't care for. Back in my day we made sounds with our mouths and we liked it and didn't complain. Paint job is good matte red with some writing and details.  I have no idea how to take it apart, there's no screws or anything. It's about a foot long and about 9 inches across.  I don't know what I'll do with it.  Make it like a small courier ship or space minivan. ?

Been curious about that ship/pod. Snap some more pics if you have time. I'll be curious to see what you do with it...you're plenty innovative.

Oh no, my last comment is lost...that's a bummer.

Anyways nice acquisition here JD! I love that ground vehicle and will try to find a review of it on YouTube. Maybe there are even files to print this one.

Didn't know the escape pod comes with lights! It looks so cool and I am really in love with that ground vehicle. Hasbro need to make more of them too for our Rebel Alliance bases!

Yeah, sorry DM. It has been an interesting few weeks just trying to keep my ISP from deleting everything.

Hump Day Mail Call!

My Amazon package containing 3 "Star Wars: The Mandalorian" Vintage Collection Darktroopers arrived! I refused to buy them at the original $27.99 price, but they were on sale for $9.99 so I got the sale limit of 3. I wanted 6 as I always squad build in groups of 6, but I am happy with what I was able to get. A friend has a 4th for me, and if they ever go this low again I will snag another 2 to meet my squad goal.

I've always been a sucker for the food products so I couldn't pass on these for $10.00 a piece.

Nice new additions, gentlemen!

Are those cereals a new product by FUNKO? Haven't seen those in a long while. Kellogg's used to make them 20 years ago...

Look what showed up today!




and "in action" :)


Its a really good figure. The face likeness is stunning! The lightning hand even looks good. I don't ever need another Dooku. My only concern was the knees were very tight and stiff out of the packaging. A little boiling water took care of it, but it would have been an expensive mistake to force them.
