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

[Cat]

Hah, I've also been staying away from the line. But my mate insisted I take this Snake Eyes and at least check the line out, and he's giving me a good price, so I can't say no. I'm collecting too many lines as it is. It helped that the 2 figures I wanted most, Beachhead and COBRA Viper were American Target exclusives, so that was an instant turn-off. 

Thanks Target and Hasbro!

Joes are pretty much the only toy line I regularly collect so it’s not so bad for me. Still it’s hard to keep up sometimes. I’m just glad they don’t regularly come out in waves of 6 like marvel legends.

Thats the creepiest thing i saw today how did he move in a carbonised state!

1 of the tin toys.  Can't find any info of value on the net.  Not complaining for $2.  Made by Suzuki in Japan.  Great colors.

Finding that in THAT good condition warrants buying the figure by itself to complete the set.    Nice score.

Thanks! 

Crazy info.  It was the only action figure item in a huge estate sale.  Also, it lasted 5 rounds of sales!

No joke, I nearly walked past it.  Too little in a sea of items.

I'm not very up on new TFs. 

Is that a modern version of Octane?  If you transform it, I'd love to see a pic.

Sure, here he is. And yeah it's a modern version of Octane from hasbro but with some slight new twists. Firstly, the toy is marketed as Octone and he is a headmaster, meaning his head can be removed and turned into a little robot that rides inside the tanker.

Awesome, thanks for posting. 

He always deserved to be larger than the G1 version. 

Also love that he's a Headmaster now.

I honestly was assuming this was some type of scam. These go for $40+ depending on condition. Got this for $8 shipped on Facebook Marketplace. Package is in great condition.

Upcoming mezco One 1:12 Collective Fantastic Four. I've already given in and preordered this. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/167328

I don't always like Mezco's updates to characters, but thank goodness for the FF it's just a nice, classic team.

I broke my vow not to get involved with a GI Joe 6" Classified figure that I intended to keep. 

Same, I also pre-ordered two entirely for the dog which has a swappable head.  Super-articulated animals are actually pretty difficult to find--I bought the Dungeons and Dragons Drizzt 2-pack below entirely for the articulated panther and sword effects, which are AWESOME and work great for Silver Samurai.  I use the panther in Black Panther displays, and Drizzt makes a fine random elf for Thor displays.

I use the small handful of GI Joe figures I have in SHIELD vs HYDRA displays.
