Well okay, I found the 30th Iron Grenadier, but IT'S NOT ENOUGH.
I just picked up GI*JOE: Steel Brigade…
…and Spiderman: Lizard.

I didn't find them anywhere near me. I went on a family vacation. I have young children so we had to take a lot of bathroom breaks. I just sort of happened to make all our stops at exits with Wal-Marts or Targets.Originally Posted by Alexx

I knew that Mexican guy in apartment 1 was bad news...
Did you have to push down any kids and snatch it away from their hands to get it?Found one of my "holy grails" at TRU today (it's the Deadpool 2-pack, though Cybertronian Soundwave is nice too).
That's mestizo to you!

I KNEW IT! He's probably down there right now, rolling in all those figures. Always beating me to the punch!

Latest really cool pick up for me was the SDCC Indiana Jones RotLA figure set.

I got some sweet deals at my local Dillions grocery store. I went to the clearance rack to check for some discounted bread and what do I find? DCUC figures for $5.99 and Transformers DOTM deluxe figures for $4.99.
And I also picked up a complete Marvel Secret Wars Wolverine at a comic/toy shop for just $10. Other than some paint missing on his belt he is just about perfect.

I'm jealous of the Wolvie.
I picked this up MISB for a good price at a consignment shop many years ago. I kept him sealed for a few years but I eventually caved and couldn’t resist opening him up. I don’t regret it one bit.
Man, that thing is awesome. My only disappointment is not with the vehicle itself but rather I wish it came with a vintage inspired Ace. I have the green outfit 25th Ace (the one that came with Skyduster and the black outfit Wild Bill) piloting mine but I did give him the helmet that came with that Skystriker.
The shop I picked him up at is a chain called Vintage Stock. I’ve got to say that I’ve never seen a chain of comic/toy shops with so many sweet deals. Most of their stuff is not incredibly cheap, but priced very fair. But I can always count on finding at least a few awesome things there for a steal of a deal.I'm jealous of the Wolvie.
- Vintage GoBots Leader-1 - $3
- 25th GI*JOE Stroto Viper (correct vintage color) no accessories - $2 (just what I needed to pilot the ROC Night Raven)
- Vintage GI*JOE mail away Hawk (bright neon one) still sealed in bag - $7
- Vintage Transformers mail away Overdrive no accessories - $8
- Bandai Macross 1/55 Valkyrie VF-1A reissues (Hikaru movie version and brown cannon fodder version) - $20 each (I was incredibly baffled by this insanely cheap price)

And you shouldn't. Toys are meant to be opened and enjoyed. How much did you pay for him if you don't mind me asking, F-Deuce? I'm just getting into the M.A.S.K. buying biz and have no clue as to what is fair or not. Not that it really matters but I'd like to know.

A bunch of Alien Conquest LEGOs
2012 Create a character Runners up Mini-Sub please!!! (While were at it a 4 Horseman MOTUC original Mini Sub too Please!!!)
That's a sweet find. I want a cheap Batman and Robin! I had the Toy Biz versions of each character from around the time of the Tim Burton Batman film. I don't collect DCUC at all, but i'd buy some 6 dolla Batman and Robins.

No pic this time (camera being ornery) but I got 2 Steel Brigade, 2 Iron Grenadiers, a Star Wars Vintage Jango Fett and a Generations Scourge.
Alexx, still the same Walmart for the Joes. I passed on 2 more Steel Brigades since I prefer to have the villains be more numerous. But they are very sweet figures.
Bought a couple of TNA Impact wrestling figures - Angelina Love & Velvet Sky.
Tonner Ms. Marvel... methinks Tonner is gonna bankrupt me... at least if they do Dazzler (Disco), Storm and Fire-Star. Bonus points for Monica Rambeau/Captain Marvel and Hell-Cat!
Today, I picked up the DCUC Crime Syndicate boxed set and the Superman/Wonder Woman... I dunno what they're called but they're like Marvel's Super Hero Squad.
