2 MINUTE TOY BREAK !

Just when I thought all was lost and the prospect of toy hunting was becoming  more daunting than the actual hunt , this happened! I'll be looking at both figures more closely in the next couple of days. Also, stay tuned for my Marvel Legends Retro fig opening post😉

I stopped in my local Walmart a few minutes ago and came across this! I couldn't believe my eyes! I thought I was dreaming. I almost told the lady standing next to me to pinch me but I don't think her husband would have liked that very much. What did I bring home you ask? Stay tuned for the follow up post.

I've held out long enough. Toy pick ups have been  few and far between so I'm finally going to crack open my Marvel Legends 3.75 Retro figures! I'm going to try something different , though. I'll be carefully cutting out a small opening at the top of the blister to see If I can slide the figure out. Hopefully both the figure and card will come out of this unharmed. I'll let you guys know how it goes! 

If you haven't been over to  GIJigsaw's  site to check out his awesome custom action figure artwork, I suggest you do so. Recently Jigs put the word out and gave readers of his site the chance to pick out 4 characters from any action figure line to be immortalized on canvas and I chose a few Mattel Marvel Secret Wars classics!  Jigs even added the lightning bolt to the deep blue background, staying true to the vintage card art!  The colors used match the figures perfectly! Even Dr. Doom got the metallic silver treatment. Black suit Spidey!!! I'm really digging these and appreciate the "First Four" freebie deal! Jigs completely knocked it out of the park and It's cool to know that I have the first series of Mattel Marvel Secret Wars figure paintings! Many thanks Jigs💥 This was truly a thoughtful and kind gesture on your part and I will forever be indebted 🙏
