Star Wars The Force Awakens (so did I ,just now,coincidentally) - Snow Trooper

What a snazzy little figure!This is the figure  that came with the Star Wars -The Force Awakens snow speeder set I just reviewed.I was gonna save this for my 5 Points and Proud blog but I thought why not post It here.I get more traffic here at 2 Minute Toy Break anyways.But yeah,I like this figure.It's got limited articulation(5 points) ,like most of the Force Awakens line ,but look at all that detail.Hasbro did an amazing job with these figures and I'm soooo tempted to go after others In this line even though I know nothing at all about them . It even came with a removable back pack. You really can't tell the difference when displaying him next to the figures with more points of articulation.He looks great imo.I think he's still a little pissed at Doom for jacking his snow speeder but what the hell,according to  Toy Box  It was a deleted scene anyways and the vehicle never really showed up in the film ,so.

Doom's New Ride!

This couldn't have been a better fit.I know Doom has a jet pack and his doombots fly as well,but sometimes you gotta bring out the big guns.I picked up this Star Wars snow speeder on a hunch and it paid off.The cool thing about it lies in its simplicity.It doesn't  necessarily look like a snow themed vehicle at all.Its generic design makes it perfect for re purposing.Dr.Doom fits in the drivers seat nicely without his cape on and even though this is a two seater ,you have the option of standing the passenger figure up to man the gun turret.                                         The ship gives off that Doom vibe ,doesn't it?                                            Another cool feature  is the removeable turret. I suppose you could make this a vessel for good if you chose too.Cap and the crew look cool in the cockpit but not nearly as cool as Doom does imo.   No fantasticar here.It only seats two and Thing did not agree with the passenger se

I know what your thinking.That's Star Wars.Nope.This will be  re purposed  to be used as an armed  land speeder of sorts for my Marvel Universe figures.I figured ,It's generic looking enough to pass for it.I'm not sure If my MU figures will even fit inside  but i'm gonna give it a try.Results later on today :)

Marvel Universe - Daredevil

The price of Marvel Universe and G.I. Joe action figures have been flip flopping as far as what they sell for online.Marvel Universe used to be the more expensive of the two but now ,with the high demand for G.I. Joe figures and lack of product ,their prices have increased.This is a good thing for collectors who missed out on alot of the earlier waves of  Marvel Universe figures .Like many,I have had to settle for re paints and more modern versions of characters that I would  much rather have in their original comic costumes.I missed out on the original Daredevil release and had to settle for  the dark red  version of him.Later on ,Marvel Infinite series released a nicer and more articulated DD figure which I picked up,but still,the shade of red coupled with intense black washing wasn't my favorite. I've always wanted the  solid bright red figure.It took a few years for the price to drop  ,but my patience paid off as I was finally able to add it to my collection.
