You have great taste skullshine. That Zombie Viper is the hottest thing on the block right now, Tank is one of the greatest action figures ever made, Dark Tower rocks and Hellraiser rocks, and I'm originally from Baltimore and have been intrigued by that Mignola book. And those WoW figures are some of, if not the best sculpts on the market today but are too rich for my blood. This haul gets a 10/10.

Just figured it would keep the board a little neater if we had a single thread for this stuff. Haven't posted a haul since the old board, so: Damn you. Once I saw your pics of the Techno-Viper and Zombie-Viper, I had to find 'em. Sure as shit, TRU had one of each. The ZV had a dicked-up card but I bought him anyways. Techno was a no-brainer. I loved that figure when I was a kid and I LOVE this re-imagined version even better. Oh, and ZV has something I've never seen on a 3-3/4" figure before: double jointed knees. That is almost unheard of in that figure size. Kudos to Has$bro for that one. And thanks to you, SS, for posting!

^I gave up the hunt but I guess these are showing up at retail again finally? I'm pretty sure all of the recent Joes and MU figures have the double knee joint. It is great, new Joes especially are just amazing for the scale.

Sweet haul! How are the Sideshow troopers? Been considering looking into those, but I haven't asked anyone who collected them their opinions yet.

Damn! Yeah, gohastings.com does have some good deals sometimes. I got a couple of Sideshow G.I. Joe figs from there awhile back for roughly half the original retail price. Great haul, by the way!

Yeah it's a pretty great site that I'll be returning to! A couple of the figures were less than $1! I love that some of them still have the $17.99 price tag still on them

Great deal mags, I probably spent close to that much on The Comedian alone.

^ Cool. It's the little things that count a lot sometimes. In this case it really was an actual little thing.

That's a kickass haul. I always preferred Aliens as a kid so I'm not sure why I only ended up with the Predator Micro Machines. I've also thought about picking them up on ebay but it is really hard to justify the price.

It's in surprisingly good shape too. Not a scratch. ...Doctor, not a scratch.

Great pose-ability, paint, variety - You should get at least one and see. Sideshow still have exclusive Gree in stock - Get him, hella impressive fig. As for the clones, they still have the yellow clone commander, which is a great figure!

I haven't posted a haul on this board yet, so here's my first one. I got all of this stuff for $60 at a flea market. A much better deal than the 3 MLs I would have gotten at TRU at this price. Holy crap the flea market is never hat good to me!

Found Spawn the Black Heart at my LCS for $14.99. That is a badass figure nightmare. I never had that one. Thought about picking it up a couple years ago but never got around to it. Your pics make it look even more awesome.

Thanks Raz! ;D Got my layaway out at K-mart! With this, I was finally able to complete the Anti-Monitor. In my opinion, this was a very cool wave, but then again, I'm a sucker for this whole Corps thing by now. First up is Blue Lantern Flash. He's not very exciting, being a repainted Flash figure, so I suspect most will pass him up unless they want to finish A-M, or they want to build a Blue Lantern Corps. There's nothing wrong with him, however; No messed up paint apps or stuck joints or anything like that. I like him well enough. Star Sapphire Wonder Woman is a little more exciting. Some reuse here and there, but there are a few newly sculpted parts here. No stuck joints or bad paint on this one either. The neck joint is hampered a bit by the hair and collar, and the torso joint has been switched from the usual ab crunch to a cut joint just below the ribs, for some reason. Kind of wished they'd kept the usual joint, to be honest. Not bad, but not great. I'm kind of disappointed with my Indigo Lantern Atom. The right shoulder joint on mine is completely stuck. I can move it up and down, but there's no forward or backward motion possible, and no signs that it can ever become un-stuck. His left ankle is the same way. There's nothing else wrong with him, but I feel like these issues really bring down the figure. Orange Lantern Lex Luthor is probably my favorite of the four. No stuck joints, and the joint that replaces the usual ab-crunch actually works a lot better. The only weird thing about him is that he has no wrist joint in his right hand. I guess when they sculpted the new hand with the ring, they forgot to put a joint in. Here's a picture that shows what I'm talking about. (Yes, those are my hands. And my lights. ) Anti-monitor is probably my favorite DCU BAF yet. He was a bit hard to put together at first, but after I got him together, I was really happy with how he turned out. The cloth cape looks nice, but I wish it had a wire running through it like Trigon's does. The tubes on the arms kind of restrict their movement unless you turn the forearm gauntlets the right way. All in all, an excellent figure.
