G.I. Joe Valor Vs. Venom - Cobra Commander

I can't stress enough how much fun It's been going through everything Derek ( Orniphus) of  Coolandunusual sent me about a week back.Prior to receiving the package,I had been snapping "one and done "   shots of figures In my collection that I had  already previously  taking pictures of. Having some new plastic to photograph Is definitely a good thing.Today we have Valor Vs. Venom Cobra Commander.What makes this version of C.C. cool Is the black color scheme.Also,considering how dis-proportioned alot of the figures In this particular line of Joes were,C.C. looks pretty damn good.I love the sophistication of the suit he's wearing, It screams  "I'm C.C. , Bi#*!" This version of Cobra Commander also comes with a cape that pegs into a small hole in his back.I'm currently watching one on eBay,because I think that cape would really set off the figure.I have a small amount of Valor Vs. Venom stuff In my stash so this figure Is more than welcomed into my collection.Once I have enough of the figures that I like from the line,I'll  put together a nice display.Enjoy the pics!





A couple of MIB!



"COOOOBRAAAAA!"

    I do like this guy, I love the design for his faceplate, the added lines of detail in there are pretty cool. His proportions aren't the wildest of that generation of Joes either.

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou...

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
