This Week In Your Plastic Crack, Action Figures and Toy Collection 26 26

[Azkaban]

Just had a guy drop these by the house along with some of the ships and playsets will go thru those maybe tomorrow but couldn't wait to pull out these figures. Most of them still have that nice plastic smell.  These might be going to the next Con with me or I might have to buy some to put in my PC  looks like most still have the original weapons

I really do not think you know what you have there by the fact that you did not focus on the most expensive figure sitting in the lot. 

Go put the Blue Snaggletooth on up high and keep it away from any pets you might have or the kids. 

There are others that will get you a nice chunk of change since you have the weapons like a complete Yoda with staff.

Came across this during the Amazon Prime Deals 

https://www.amazon.com/JOJO-Peach-Transform-Building-Collectible/dp/B0B28RQY83/

I am tempted to leave a review with a creative backstory despite never buying it.

"Damaged after the Decepticon "Iceberg" attacked him in the North Atlantic, the Autobot, "Titanic" was helpless as he sank to the bottom of the ocean with thousands of passengers on board.  Now awakened after a seismic activity near his body, his spark is awakened to carry him from the depths of the ocean back to our world to join Optimus Prime and protect the Earth."

Yeah, my eyes went immediately to the blue Snaggletooth. Well done, @Azkaban those are really sweet! I don't collect SW anymore, but if a collection that nice fell into my lap, I'd have a hard time giving them up!

I'd love to get back, the last couple of shows have fallen when I've been out of town or had other things booked. Staying too busy, need to take a break and come buy some comics!

 Apparently Amazon was letting scalpers order 30 at a time.

I've never seen Amazon put up the types of order limits that other retailers like Target or Walmart do where they will limit collector's items to max quantities of 2 to 5.  If anyone has seen that please do share.

[Azkaban]

started unpacking some of the other boxes and this is what I worked on today at work

What's the deal with the Blue Snaggletooth?  I think I might have one in a collection that I picked up years ago.

Was a prerelease really.  So the figure was first released with the Sears Cantina playset and then it was immediately changed for the next run since Kenner did not make the figure to the specifications of Lucasfilm.

Double points and some excellent gift with purchases from Lego.  Finally picked up this year's modular building, the Jazz club, for Lego city.   They gave me the Blacktron Retro Set, the Bionicle Retro Set. a Blue Key Chain of a Blue Minifigure, and a parts package. 

I will wait for the next Double Points to for the Retro Pirates set and I want that Indiana Jones Boulder set but will look for that on an eventual Amazon sale.  The modular buildings never go on sale. 

The soon to be announced (SDCC?) Giant Avengers Tower is also on my radar.

got these two cleaned up and together, so far it looks like all the pieces to the sets have been complete only problem so far the old stickers have fallen off or some have come off. Trash compacter looks to still have all the foam with it

 Maybe submerge some of the non electronic, non stickered white components in peroxide and leave it out in the sun for a day to lighten those yellow lines.

should I take off the peeling stickers and just clean it up real good or try to glue some of them back on or just leave them as is?

[Azkaban]
