I'd definitely put a few nails underneath it to help support the weight.

I happen to work early morning part-time at the store where they were at. On my break I was checking out the toy pallets that they were hoarding in penskie for Christmas season (yep...so we'll be selling toys which everyone got three-four months ago). Yesterday, I got Batman Legacy Wave 2, and I totally forgot about ThunderCats until I checked for them this morning and they had them!

A case has:
Lion-O x3
Mumm-Ra x3
Tygra x2
Panthro x1
Cheetara x1
Wilykit x1
Wilykat x1

I snagged one of each and a Thundertank. Panthro, Cheetara, Wilykit and Kat are one to a case, so you'll have to be early to get them, unless your store ordered multiple cases.

I did grab a 6" Mumm-Ra, but he's too big. Lion-O's head come up to the top of his belt. I guess it works if you like Mumm-Ra enormous.

I totally forgot about the deluxe figures like Grune and Mumm-Ra, so when I return 6" Mumm-Ra, I'll check to see if they have the other two!

Are the T-Cats TRU exc. or are they going to be available at other store chains?Could you post pics of the T-Cats you picked up?

From what I've heard so far the Thundercats are most available at K-Marts, and they will be carried through pretty much every major retailer (K-Mart, Target, Wal-Mart, TRU) there are just a lot of stores that haven't got them in or put them out yet.

The new ruler of my main toy shelf arrived this week:

I don't have any timekeepers, but I found a use for part of the armor, so Scarabus can have an undead minion too. I only wish I could have afforded Demon Fire Scarabus too.

Actually, the Sega Saturn version was pretty good. It had tremendous lag time but the gameplay was pretty spot-on.

I've seen and heard of people buying whole cases in store, is there like any particularly good time to attempt that and how do you go about it? Do you ask somebody or if there's a case there do ya just grab and pay?

Walmart and Target will have the cases out on the floor when they are delivered, some will say the Assortment others will have a number code. If you know what you want and you see it pick up the entire case and take it to checkout and they will open it and ring up each figure.

I have done this quite a few times, if any employees gives you crap you just tell them you are buying the whole thing and that will usually shut them up.

Yay! Now I know!

And while knowing is half the battle I never got a chance to learn the other half, shooting guns with pretty colored flashes coming out of it and hitting ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!

My latest score;

Obviously it is not my picture but I am glad to finally have a decent camera. Now I will know if my formerly bad pictures are because of a bad camera or if I am a bad photographer

I got the lastest additons to my Venture Bros. collection, Dr. Girlfriend and Hank Venture:

http://www.entertainmentearth.com/im...P09101DDlg.jpg

I really like these figures! Dr. Girlfriend has some really "interesting" uses of rear and frontal padding. I guess it's to give her more curves than a regular plastic form of it's own cannot provide. Even her undergarment is cartoon accurate.

Hank is also more cartoon accurate than the previous Dean Venture toy I feel. I can't wait for my Dr. Orpheus and Phantom Limb set to come in.

Masterpiece Rodimus Prime from Toys R Us (exclusive?). Opened it which I partially regretted instantly, but Hot Rod was my favourite Transformer when I was a kid, so I couldn't help myself.

I got the latest wave of Marvel Universe figures today...

http://www.manofactionfigures.com/si...e_set_of_5.jpg

I am most disappointed in the Dr. Doom figure which is just a straight re-deco of the Marvel Secret Wars Comic 2-pack version. I was expecting something of an update, maybe even at the very least new hands. I really like Doctor Strange and Falcon. Now, I need to get Doctor Strange's Astral form variant. The surprise hit for me is the Scarlet Spider. I hated the character and the uniform but in person, it looks pretty good. Skarr, I am apathetic to. Overall, a decent assortment for me.

I just got my Entertainment Earth exclusive Talky Tina, the killer toy from one of my favorite Twilight Zone episodes, "Living Doll". She's 18" tall and says her 5 signature phrases from the episode.

That episode taught me the valuable lesson that if you love your toys they will rub out anybody who treats you wrong!

I couldn't have that in my house. It would freak me the heck out.
