Merry Christmas To Me Pt. 3

After watching several YouTube reviews of Super 7's line of cartoon themed GIJoe figures, I decided to give them shot and I'm glad I did. This figure came in a character specific box. I think that's how they ship directly from Super 7 because I've seen them sans box on the pegs at Walmart. 
The box inside is also bagged for added security and protection. Once you get this out of the bag you'll notice that there is yet another protective sleeve that slides off the actual figure packaging. 


One thing I noticed after getting Snake Eyes out of the packaging is that the plastic used isn't nearly as hefty/heavy as Hasbro's Classified. I also spotted a little bit of dried glue on the head sculpt which seems to be a constant with this particular figure. That  said, this is a beautiful and faithful cartoon representation of one  my all time favorites! 
I'm not crazy about extra hands with my action figures but these work well and help Snake Eyes hold his blaster, rifle and radio nicely. 
Here are a couple of size comparisons. 
Marvel Select Hawkeye stands a bit taller while Marvel Select Wolverine comes in a little shorter than Super 7's Ultimates Snake Eyes.
Super 7's Snake Eyes towers over Hasbro's Classified Snake Eyes while Hasbro's Timber gets the nod over Super 7's offering. 
Don't let my lazy posing mislead you. This is a very posable Snake Eyes figure. Not quite Classified posable but good enough to get some cool shots. 
You'll find Gi Joe Super 7 Ultimate figures in the  video game collectibles section at Walmart. They are pretty pricey, though. I recommend buying on ebay if you want to save a couple bucks.

    Minor QC issues aside, it's a nice figure.

    Cool figure. Amazon has these on sale for almost 50% off. I'm tempted, but my budget is pretty tapped after the holiday season.

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.
