Halfway Point

Halfway point for the year! Got Deszaras! Will be getting deluxe Insecticons, Swoop, various cassettes, and Sureshot (eventually). Got Snarf and Ki-Adi Mundi, will get Yoda. Have got Legends Wolfsbane, will be getting Odin and a Lego X-Mansion. Real Ghostbusters figures expected. Not a bad year for the stuff I really want. What’s up next?!

*******************


Having finally got a Cosmic Legions figure, I really like it and…… I’ve ordered more! Time and time again I’ve looked at the pictures and struggled to make a decision - they’re expensive and the characters don’t mean anything but wow, they’re amazing looking figures! It’s quite liberating just getting the figures I want and not needing to complete any teams. I decided I can justify them on the basis that I can have a generic ‘cosmic’ display with them, Star Wars and some Marvel. Soooo expensive though. I’m going to try and restrict myself to one use per mold.





Got Squeezeplay, he’s great. He’s mostly great because it’s exactly the sort of character I want to be getting. It’s funny how we almost have all the Decepticon headmasters, Targetmasters, powermasters and pretenders that appeared in Headmasters and Masterforce (is it just Horri-Bull?), we don’t even have all the Autobot Targetmasters yet.



The deluxe Insecticons and Windsweeper turned up a little earlier than expected. This is the sort of stuff I want, I guess as time goes on it’s going to mostly be about exclusives and not so much mainstream. Looking forward to Ruckus and hope that Venom rumour is true.





I’ve spent less time thinking about toys this month, but somehow that hasn’t translated to spending less. Hopefully next month will be a little calmer!
