Congratulations on finishing another semester of school. LEMAX does some fun stuff, how appropriate for a train diorama. My trains have all been HO scale, and I was building models fir them before Star Wars.

We're currently finishing an indoors setup in G scale. It's 1/24 scale like most of Hasbro's vehicles for Star Wars 3.75" figures.

Today's Target clearance and Dollar Tree scores!

The "Fortnite" Menace (Undefeated) figures were $11.06 (originally $35.99) and were bought primarily for the weapon racks. The figures will probably be used for trolls or titans.

The "Gundam" mechs were $1.25 each at Dollar Tree. These are in French/Spanish packaging, probably produced for the European market. Last Christmas, they were something like $12.99 at Target. They will be customized into military or security droids.

Stopped by Target and found the Guardians spaceship (kind of cheesy, but potentially useful) on clearance for 70% off ($10.42 or something like that) I bought a couple - the raccoon figure inside can be used as a smaller body for customs and who knows what else can be done with the set.


They also have the Epic scale (1:18) X-men in stock now ($10.99). I picked up Rogue, they also had Woverine and Cyclops on the rack:


Finally, the DC Blue Beetle figures (same size as Flash movie, so a little smaller stature than our Star Wars figures) are in stock ($8.99) there is the "hero" version (see below) and the "battle" version, with a hand cannon and two beetle spikes:

It will be interesting to see what you can do with that ship. It sure didn't impress me much.

That ship just looks too cheap to me (I hate hollow reverse sides of toys) even at $10. I hope that they go lower (like $5) before they disappear off of the shelves so I don't miss out on Rocket.

I just want a Rocket Racoon to finish off my MCU team. I bought extra Star-Lord/Drax figures to make Kraglin and Adam Warlock as they appear in the mid-credits scene. I also bought extra Mantis figures to make Nebula and Gamora (she doesn't wear that uniform in the movie, but I still want to me her in it for unity sake).

Friday Mail Call!

I got a box full of awesomeness from Car AR!

I absolutely LOVE the custom zombie Clonetrooper and fantasy weapons he made as gifts for me!

Well, looks like they got inspired by one of the UFO sightings of the past decade...lol

Yeah - Rocket Raccoon was the reason I bought the sets. I was initially thinking about cutting the ships up for the scrapyard dio. I hope to get to some day. But when I have some vacation time, I'll look at them more closely and see if there is something else to do that paint and custom work can't significantly improve.

I stumbled across this online shop while looking for ALF! They had him on pre-order for 39€. The MRSP for this figure is 49,99€ here in Germany. And I haven't found a better price for a new ALF, yet.
I just love this figure and my favorite accessory is the cat sandwich. But don't tell anyone.
The Client came with it for a convenient discount price of 9€. Shipping was 6,95€.
Check them out, they have some cool stuff and offer international shipping, too!

Monday Mail Call and Gamestop rewards!

The 2 "The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen" books were from Amazon (the third volume that I ordered is arriving tomorrow).

The "5 Surprise Volcano Dino Strike" was free with my monthly Gamestop rewards. I got another stegosaurus (I was hoping for either the Amargosaurus, Pteranodon or Dilophosaurus).

Humpday Mail Call and clearance scores!

The last volume of "The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen" that I was waiting on arrived from Amazon!

My Hasbro Pulse order of the "Dungeons & Dragons: Golden Archive" Xanathar FINALLY arrived after FedEx dicked around with it and sending it on a tour up and down the east coast since Friday.

The "Halo" Drop Pod was $6.49 at Target. I just got it for the pod. The ODST Rookie will be available for sale/trade later tonight.

The brand new "Jurassic World: Dino Trackers" dinosaur was $7 at Walmart.

The cool reptile tank decoration was $11.87 at Petsmart, down from $19.99. It makes for an EXCELLENT mini diorama accessory.
