Wow, sizeable X-men haul. 

What's the deal with the bagged X-men in Christmas stockings?   Is that just for sounds/noises? 

I got a solid chuckle out of the company called Comic Images (Image Comics).   I'm going to start one called Comic Marvels. 

I really like that Jim Lee action figure case.   Definitely 80s-inspired with some cool art.  Not one I've seen in-person. 

Any chance the comic came with the board game?

The three bagged figures...I'm not really sure what they're from. Pulling the triggers makes them swing left and right...they're kind of like hand-held Rock'em, Sock'em Robots, except without the heads popping off.

The case was a nice find...no trays, but not surprised--I had the Transformers collector's case up until a few years ago, and the trays were such thin plastic that they were crumbling to the touch. These are likely the same way.

As for the board game, if you mean the abridged Survival's Guide, yep, that was with it. I think it's complete, but need to find what should've been inside--nothing's punched out, but it has cards and dice loose, so just need to make sure there are the right amounts. It also had no instruction booklet, assuming it was supposed to.

Pogs?!!!

Heck yeah! I had three others of these sheets, so this got added to those. I have a bunch of duplicates now, and still some missing, in case anyone's got some of these unpunched beauties for trade! I *believe* these came from Hardee's, but I'd need to check my list.

If anyone is kind enough to help me in my quest for 1990 TMNT Movie NECA turtles Michelangelo and Raphael, and you have a Twitter account, you could really help me. A rando guy is holding a give away of both 2 Packs. All you need to do is state your favourite moment from the 1990 film. Don't need to follow him or subscribe to anything, literally just reply to the thread with your favourite moment from the 1990 film. Easy! It closes on the 17th!!

You get to make money here, if you win. I'll pay full price for the pack I need, and I'm sure you'll have no problem with the other one. Hell, you might want it. Or I can trade you a Donnie single packed if you just want one to check out. 

Thanks to anyone who helps me! I'm genuinely grateful, and thankful, to anyone who helps me here.

Love it! I'm still hoping to find him on the pegs at some point, but I'm starting to think that may not happen. He looks terrific!

First he really utilizes a unique and high quality and well designed transformation.  Think “mini MP.”
 

He’s one per case and IF a store gets the assortment the allotment was supposedly one or two cases per store.  
 

I put up a FB add asking who could beat eBay prices and someone wrote me saying he would do $55 shipped. 
 

He lived in Arizona and was sending it priority so when I figured paying tax and shipping on eBay over the $25 retail price.  I was cool buying it for about $15 over retail.  I always liked Cosmos as a kid and I saved  
 

Now I don’t have to stop by Walmart on the way to Costco anymore.

And that's the ballgame, right there: not having to go to Walmart. Worth a premium in and of itself!

So, I’m aware of the complaints that folks have about the Super 7 ultimates figures (primarily price and quality control), but here’s one thing I do know: this Optimus Prime can palm a basketball, and ride a surfboard! So, that’s me sold.

I did get him on Amazon for about $40, which made it a bit more palatable. He has a ton of accessories, a beautiful cartoon likeness, and is a nice big chunk of plastic. I really dig him.

Why the hell does it come with a basketball? lol

 

I don't get it either.   Someone help a brother out. 

On a side note, found a 3rd Playschool Bigfoot today (2 in 1 week).   Couldn't leave it.
