HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

 


What's good people? Just checking in on everyone, making sure the kids are all right ;)  I've been super busy with work and now more than ever with the holiday season. Another reason why I haven't been posting much is because of this shitty little camera I've been using ever since my phone's screen shattered. 
I can't believe phones are better cameras than actual cameras are. It is what it is, I guess. That aside, I thought I'd update everyone on the new pad and what I plan on collecting moving forward. So, because of my limited space, added expenses and time constraints, action figure buying has slowed a bit. Every now and again I'll pick up a MOTU origins figure from Wal-Mart or GIJoe Classified figure on-line. I've also taken to Ollie's variety shops as they have a little bit of everything including super cheap comics, games and action figures! Besides that It's been full steam ahead with everything else I have going on. I will say that I miss the unique comradery of the toy blogosphere and hope to get back into the swing of things sooner rather than later. I'd like to shout out

I leave you with Holiday Wishes and a few pics of the Christmasized Man-Pad!

    Looks good, man. You're definitely all decked out for Christmas! And, yes, Ollie's is a great place to find some good deals. Ollie's Bargain Hunt, and some of those bin stores like Quick Lotz have netted me some treasures for sure.

    Likewise, Jigs😉 I've always loved this time of year. The holidays always seem to get me in blogging mode.

    I was starting to wonder if you'd be coming back or not. And in case you don't post again before then, Merry Christmas!

      Just an FYI, I do have a non-card blog as well. I don't know if it would be of any interest to you, but it's a little bit of everything; with even some toy stuff coming up after the first of the year.

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.
