Wednesday Mail Call!

Got a box FULL of awesomeness from 2DARK2C of Joe Customs! I need to really explore all of the great stuff he sent, but that has to wait for a day where I am less exhausted than I am today.

Today's Dollar Tree haul!

The domes will be specimen containment units after customization and the blue boxes will be cargo crates after getting painted.

Really like these domes and boxes! I wish we had Dollar Tree here as well, but sometimes dollar stores have some neat nonsense here in Germany as well. Great finds, Dan!

Maisie was tough to find everywhere!

I lucked out and ended up with about 8 of her over the course of about 6 months. I even found 3 at once during an early morning Target trip as they had just finished stocking the pegs (the employee was walking away with the empty boxes when I entered the aisle).

That's super cool! Never saw her on shelves here. Glad you got so many! So it was worth the hunt and patience. It's evident that MATTEL got distribution right where Hasbro fails.

Got lucky with Amazon once again:



They sent all 3 items in good condition, so scratches or bent boxes, only minor edging. You can see more images here.

Thanks.

The last 2-3 weeks have been terrible. I have been doing 10.5-11.5 hour days in this heat :(

I remember having toy boxes with miscellaneous stuff as a kid. Now I can only imagine you must have shipping containers full of awesome figures, parts & accessories! It's great how you score so many nice items, Dan! Really like the stuff you share with us!

I got 5 Indy figs with removable hat off ebay for $14.27 including shipping & tax. I'm going to use them for custom figures of Mr Bezos, Dr. Alan Grant and Roland Tembo seen in Jurassic Park: The Lost World.
The figures came in good condition, smell factory fresh. But the baggies were all greasy and really gross, so I washed the figures and repacked them all.

So glad I still got them, after watching them for months. Those power sellers from Asia seem to slowly run out of most of their Indy figures. So get yours while supplies last using the yellow affiliate link above!

Today's Sam's Club score!

This is a new Lontic/Tedco dinosaur 6pk consisting of 3 all new dinosaurs and 3 reissues of extremely hard to find older releases.

The "wooly" Velociraptor is awesome!

The Final Faction figures were purchased mostly for the accessories. The Halo and JW stuff will mostly stay as is. The Halo mech will get some New Republic markings and some weathering.

I like your idea about that Halo Mech. I think it would fit in nicely into the SW Verse.

Shame we can't get mini-rigs and things like this again in the SW Line.
