Marvel Universe - Archangel

Image
Slowly but surely , I've been able to add key figures to my Marvel Universe collection by waiting It out. Had I known these figures were going to be so scarce and expensive today  I would have picked them up back when they first released years ago. Like the cliche saying goes " Hindsight is 20/20 ". So ,that aside. Lets move on to the figure! One of the nicer figures In the Marvel Universe  action figure line,Archangel is a series 2 release , numbered 015. I never understood the "Fans Choice Winner!" designation on the left hand corner of the packaging. Was there some kind of an  official pole for collectors to vote on their favorite figures? It felt great to have a carded figure in my hands again . Loose figures are cool but like most collectors will tell you,nothing beats the smell of a new action figure. It's chemically delicious!

Accessory Needs/Wants

These figures  are high priority In my collection right now .I don't need to complete any of them, but I would like to have at least one or a couple of their integral accessories.Starting things off with ... John Matrix.That Uzi isn't even his ,I think I grabbed that off of a Chap Mei fig .All I really want for this figure Is his vest.Guns he originally came with would be nice but really all I  need Is that darned vest.Too bad It sells for about the price of one vintage G.I. Joe on ebay.  I'm not about to pay the 12 to 20 bucks some nutty seller out there Is asking for.Hell to the no.  Next up Is Rambos Bazooka.Very seldom will you find the bazooka sold individually on ebay.Most of the time it'll be coupled with  other accessories to up the value ,forcing you to pay about the same price you would pay for the Rambo figure loose. Not happening.    Skitor has been a mainstay In my collection .He and Waspax were the first two Sectaurs ...

I'm at the point In toy collecting where I have most of what I sought after when I began this whole action figure blogging thing back In 2011.Remember Action Figs and Things?If not , here Is a link  to my very first action figure post, ever !Since then I've acquired a nice amount of figures ,not an astounding amount,but enough to keep me blogging and my display case full.With that being said,there are still a couple figures out there that are on my radar.Here are my vintage wants-                                                           SECTAURS- SPIDRAX Doesn't have to come with all accessories ,but I'd like to find one with his harness and at least 1 pistol.Spidrax came with an Insect hand puppet  which I'm really not interested In.This Is a figure I had as a kid  so the nostalgic value alone makes this number 1 one on my w...
