2 MINUTE TOY BREAK !

Yes,I'm still on my Marvel Universe grind people!Recently I was able to sell off some DOTM Transformers  In order to continue filling out my  Marvel Universe shelf.Of course Magneto Is a must have ,but I wasn't about to shell out most of what I made off my TF sale for his Marvel Universe figure.So I took the Marvel Legends Showdown route.For those of you not hip to the Showdown line,they are some of the first 3 3/4 ,highly articulated Marvel action figures ever to be released.Some came individually carded and others came In two packs.These figures were hit and miss.Some of the sculpts looked great for some characters while others looked downright scary.Don't believe me? Click here.  Also,some of the skinnier characters suffered from loose limb syndrome.So be warned If your looking to these figures to hold a place In your Marvel Universe collection.Lately I've been on this X-Men kick  and I've been wanting to add some more mutants to my collection.Magneto has been hi...

Cross off another big name off  the Marvel Universe "Want List".Nightcrawler was a must have for my small team of  X-Men .He was always a favorite of mine In the comics and  In video games.This Is another one of those MU figs with an overblown price tag.why?I don't know.Not sure If he was short packed as a single carded figure or If It's just because of his popularity.Anyway,I was able to find him super cheap (It's the only way I roll) form a vendor who seemed to be selling off a large portion of his collection.$9 and some change later,I finally have a Nightcrawler figure!I won't post a team pic yet because I'm waiting on a couple other figures for my X-Men universe to arrive to do that.Stay tuned!

Brother Midnight's Round Robin Challenge Is the stuff of dreams.Damn,I would flip If someone left me $5,000.00  just to spend on toys!!!Now I'm not exactly sure what everything In my list sells for but I'm pretty sure It's up there. Lets get started! Brand spanking new and sealed ,this baby goes well over $1,000.00 .This would be the first thing I track down. These are going well into the hundreds,new maybe more.I used to have a Rolling Thunder as a kid and would love to be able to find one mint!     Brand new In box,Castle Grayskull goes for about $500.00.I need this thing!  This Is way expensive factory sealed.Lets say $1,000.00 ,bringing my total so far to about $3,500.00,lol! I would have to haggle the price down on one of these suckers,used!I can probably get one complete for about $500.00 bucks. $200.00 for a new Marvel Universe Galactus. I had a strange relationship with my Boglin as a kid.I used to believe he wo...

I regret  passing on all the earlier waves of Marvel Universe figures.Who would have known that most would shoot up In price and be nearly impossible to reattain.Until now,my go to classic Cap was  Heavy Artillery Captain America from the movie line of figures.He did a great job of filling In until I could finally get my hands on what I feel Is the best Captain America figure out there, to date.Unbeknownst to me at the time of purchase,this was not the shield that came  with this figure originally.Not a problem at all because this shield with the straps  Is  sooo much better than the clip on ones. It took nearly 8 years for this figure to start coming down In price ,hence the reason I was able to finally snag one up. As you can see ,Secret Wars Cap stands taller than Heavy Artillery and the Super Combat Movie Versions.  I also dig the similarities this figure has with the original 1980's Secret Wars Captain America.The lighter shade of blue ...
