Today's Target (Halo) and Walmart (Roblox) scores!

The male Roblox was primarily purchased for his awesome scythe as I want it for one of my trolls or ogres. I can do something with the figure as well.

   I got a Super7 Muckman. Many months ago I saw his preorder up on the front page bbts ad and it was love at first sight. But at the time I didn't want to get into another line and another scale, so I kind of forgot about him. Then I just kept seeing him and knew I had to have him. I like that everything about him is disgusting. That was kind of a big thing in the late 80s early 90s, with garbage pail kids, madballs, toxic avengers and ninja turtles. Modern toys are so minimalistic and clean. If the fortnite figures were gross looking id probably get them. Like if tomato head was rotten and grotesque like attack of the killer tomatoes, it would be badass. But I digress.

I like it.

And what you are explaining is exactly what I feel when I go by the MOTU pegs. Man, they are sure doing that line correctly.

Friday Mail Call!

Got a trade package full of "Halo" goodness from a fellow fanatic on Facebook!

He added a bunch of extras as well which really brightened my crappy work day :)

Today's Dollar Tree (ATVs) and Target (2" Fortnite) scores!

The ATVs were bought just for the rock display bases that they come with. The ATVs themselves will go in my Swap Shop. They work fairly well with both 4" and 2" figures, although the footboards are too high for 4" figures to use.

Grabbed this one a whim at Five Below while on Staten Island today.

Could be cool, could be crap. Best case scenario, I get a cool little dragon skeleton. Worst case scenario, I get some more bones for dioramas.

After work Dollar Tree score!

The mounted tanks will be used for diorama fodder and the bulldozers will be bashed for droid parts.

After work Dollar Tree score!

These rigid plastic stickers are embossed and three dimensional. They will be used as accents in dioramas. They will make great artwork/decorative tiles/mystic objects/crests/etc. depending on the style.

I got 6 of each of the first 4 styles and 10 of the final one (I want 2 more for an even dozen).

You cannot beat them for $1 each :)

After work Dollar Tree score!

The pen holders have some serious diorama potential.

Just a heads'-up to customizers:  the gray pen holders take glue WAY better than the white ones. The white ones have a very slight greasy surface, probably from mold releasers, and will need some prep before you can glue anything to them. The grey ones take glue just fine.
