Two sorely needed figures have been crossed off the list.I can finally move on from these two and focus on the other MU figures that are currently on my want list.
The list of MU figures on my want list is an extensive one.I still need Juggernaut,Storm,Nightcrawler,Rhino,Magneto,Wonder Man and the real Nick Fury.But yeah,these two were long overdue.
Loved these- had collected many before I gave up- still keep a huge tote full, on card still- see the Marvel Universe tag on my blog sidebar for an eyeful!
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 think It was one of those things where the journey was more enjoyable than the destination.After all,we were free!Like Toy Box mentioned In his Round Robin post,back In the days there were no terror threats,Ebola outbreaks or ballsy pedophiles on the prowl.We all came from the same hood so everybody knew everybody and all the crazies knew better than to mess with anybody's kids.Corner store visits was our time to walk the streets on our own,free of any parental guidance.The sidewalks were ours to speed on with our bikes and skateboards.Parks,even if chained up,always had a weak link and a...
I can´t believe I got these before you did! And down here!!! HAHA

ReplyDeleteHow do you not get tempted to open those suckers up?!?!They have been pretty much my favorite modern figures to date.
