After work DII (discount store) score!

I was wanting 3 more of these silver droids to make a squad of 6 and now I have them!

Anyone want some He-Man and Skeletor figures?

Today's pre-birthday hauls!

The "Jurassic World" Super Colossal Indoraptor is from Target.

The "Lightyear" miniature sets and the cream/burgundy dinosaur are from Kohl's ("Lightyear" sets were $3.69 each and the dino was $2.12 after applying my $5 birthday bonus Kohl's Cash!).

The bagged action figures and dinosaurs are from Once Upon A Child and were $8.34 total after applying my $5 birthday bonus.

The feathered Atrociraptors were $1.97 each at Walmart. I still want 1 more for a total of 36 of them.

I still have a few more birthday certificates to redeem (Gamestop, and a few other places), I will do so tomorrow :)

Tuesday thrift store score!

All but the 3 on the right and the bright yellow one on the bottom are Hasbro "Jurassic World" (the green Rex with the spines is one of the HTF second series "Hybrid" releases!).

The 3 on the right are Chap Mei (top bright green is a CM knock-off) and the bright yellow is from Hasbro's "Jurassic World Jr." line.

The entire lot cost $27!

Thanks!

I never really picked up any of the Hasbro JW line as the obvious action features break up the sculpt really badly, plus they were expensive for what they were. But for what I paid for these ($.99 and $1.99 for most with the Rex being $7.99), I didn't mind the cost.

Today's thrift store haul.

The Triceratops is from Geoworld and the Protoceratops is from Lontic/Tedco/Happy Kin Toys.

The Triceratops is made from a very heavy, dense vinyl and has poseable/removable head/tail/legs. I wonder if it was made to be swappable with other dinos in the line?

They were $.99 each.

Today's thrift store score!

The Therizinosaurus and Alligator are Chap Mei and the Parasauralophus is an original "The Lost World: Jurassic Park" release from 1997!

Everything came to $4.18!

Wednesday Mail Call and Gamestop clearance score!

I treated myself to that awesome Boss Fight Studio 10 Orc bundle as an extra birthday present to myself!

I picked up the 2 Jaru "Five Surprise Dino Strike" blind packages for $1.03 after applying my $5 rewards certificate. I am REALLY hoping that I got dinosaurs and not the capture vehicles. I will know after dinner when I open them.

EDIT: I opened the Dino Strike blind balls and got a Stegosaurus and the RARE Volcano Wrangler variant jeep.

If anyone wants/needs the Volcano Wrangler, it will be going into my Swap Shop.

After work thrift shop haul!

The "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" Super Colossal T-Rex is one of the color variants I didn't have and was only $14.99! It has some paint scuffs on some of the upper front teeth and the toenails on the left foot, but both are easily fixed.

The purple "Sonic The Hedgehog" playset was $1.99, and is worth it for the tech pieces. This is the 2nd one I have picked up at this price to bash for parts.

The big red and tan Chap Mei Rex is one of the only CM dinos I have never owned as it only came in huge sets. It was $6.99, I saw one at the other thrift store last week for $15 and passed on it.

The magic wand toy was $.99 and purchased for the piece on top with the dragon wrapped around the ball. It will get a metallic paint job and be used as part of a fantasy diorama.

The small vinyl Rex is the 3rd one I have found for $2.99 at this thrift store, all in different colors! The first one was brown with darker brown tiger stripes, the 2nd was green with darker green tiger stripes and this one is tan.

The Chap Mei "Animal Planet" hammerhead sub is only missing the removeable missile launcher that goes on the sub's belly and was $.99.

The plastic bag is FULL of "Tech Deck" playset parts and was only $4.99! There are a ton of parts in the bag including several staircases, which are worth the $5 I paid for the whole bag. I will do a full inventory on all of the parts over the weekend.

After work thrift store haul!

I found a second rare Hasbro "Jurassic World: Hybrid" Tyrannosaurus Rex!

I also found the repaint of the giant crocodillian prehistoric reptile from the "Jurassic World: Dino Rivals" line and a 2014 electronic "Godzilla".

Everything came to $21 after my $5 birthday coupon!

Swung by the thrift store on my walk this morning and found another Hasbro "Jurassic World" Velociraptor (Hasbro made a major mistake on the feet of all of their various Raptors- no sickle toes). They work for nice sized mounts for my 3.75"/4" figures once saddles and reigns are added.
