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

[B2D327]

Just arrived today and I've gotta say it's probably one of the coolest action figures of Thor ever produced

[Cocomonkey]

Found some more X-Men pencils, some Eaglemoss figures, and while I was on a vacation, my brother-in-law took his kids to a toy store and snagged me some nice 90s X-Men playing cards!

Finally finished a 1982 Hawk figure so that I could have the OG 13 complete with all the 82 vehicles be it 1982/83 figures.  Been waiting awhile to fix my original Hawk and do this picture.  Just need one more of those UZi's to be 100% complete.

Sweet! Never get tired of seeing the OG13.

More new stuff has arrived .The Marvel Legends Giant-Man & The Wasp 2-pack is really nice. Several accessories and display options, I am really digging it. My classic Avengers lineup is getting pretty close to complete.

Also, these two grumpy little guys arrived. Brawn is great, but so happy to finally have Gears. He was one of the first figures I received as a kid, so I've always had a place in my heart for the little guy.

This is just a personal opinion but for the Tomax and Xamot that should have been a deluxe set.  I know they did the one with Baroness but still.  I remember when I was a kid and got them and thinking the packaging with the mirrors and such was amazing.  I think this was a lost opportunity on Hasbro's part.

Agreed. And then they could have also included the zip-line thing the OG figures came with.

That Silver Age Wasp is awesome. Will you be getting the Haslab Giant-Man?

Yes! I've already paid for him, but I'm not sure when he actually ships. In the meantime, the "Little Giant Man" is a placeholder, but honestly, once the Haslab shows up, I have zero idea where I'm going to put it, so he may have to just go off on a shelf by himself somewhere.

I think you're right, and the evidence is that you can still buy these guys on clearance for about $6. If they'd just gone ahead and made it a 2-pack with some extra accessories, I think they would have sold much better.

I thought it could be used to represent him growing, kinda like in this image.

That's a good idea! I just don't think I have a shelf big enough to put him on ha He may have to be in a "Casually Seated" Action Pose.

Had a guy send me a free Serpentor's fan knob for the Air Chariot.  Still need a mint cape since mine has some rips which is common which I know will be hard to get since the mailaways didn't all come with capes.  But still Its completed in my mind.

I got this from a local toy show. The seller 3D prints these. He made them in gold, blue, and red. Gold looked the best to me. Has a secret compartment under the gold bars and a separate stand and glove. I displayed my favorite Cobra Commander on it. I asked if he sells them online in case there's interest here, but he does not.

Finished my Star Wars mail in display stand this week. I'm so happy with it. Looks just like the one I had on my shelf as a kid. Bonus pictures of the rest of the figures on the top of the bookshelf. 😎

My son (who is 39) had to move to Phoenix Az. for work and didn't want these old Turtle action figures anymore.  They were his when he was a kid and are NOT NMIB !! 

I was thinking of putting them on craigslist but decided to run it by you guys first.  Anything good here?   Maybe a Christmas raffle offering?  

I notice a number of them in the top row have broken/ missing right arms. Weird no left arms are broke.

I'm sure someone with more expertise than I can give you a better answer, but I will tell you the lobster-looking guy in the first pic (first fig, top left) is Mantenna from Masters of the Universe, not TMNT.

And the Raphael in the middle bottom of pic 3 (with the brain-looking head) is the Metaluna Raph, and is like a $150-200 figure loose.
