Got an order of some of the MTF figurs today. Took advantage of the special they are running and snagged some of the color variants I hadn't picked up yet.

I got two of the Hit & Run/Torpedo/Zartan 3-packs and another Spirit/Storm Shadow in the mail today.

TRU never updated the shipping info.

Also no word on the True Heroes Hovercraft I ordered days before that, since tracking info only says "Shipped"...

Got a ML Mockingbird for around $16 at Walmart. I'm assuming the UPCs are the same as the older Avengers waves that are clearanced for the same price. I've been able to pick up Scourge and Cottonmouth for that price, too.

Kmart was doing a save $20 on a purchase of $25 deal for their members or whatever a week or two ago. I got the Machine Man/Iron Man comic pack and the little Clampdown from the newest TFs toon for $6 and change. Not a bad deal. The Iron Man should be boring, considering how many times we've seen that mold, but those colors are just so great, it makes me love it anyway.

I hit up the 2 TRUs in Paramus (Rts 4 + 17) after work and scored more Schleich cleance goodies!

The Rt 17 TRU had 5 more of the "Eldrador" set but I will wait for them to be clearanced lower before getting the rest.



The dungeon creatures are small but really nicely detailed. The paint on the bug and dragon is not as complex as the paint on the lizard, but I can rectify that



Here you can see that the Hay and Straw bundles act as "supplies" inside my castle walls. Eventually they will be split between the 2 castles when the second one eventually gets set up again.

Very cool score and excellent set up.

Snagged the Schleich bush plane for cheep off Amazon. But now I'm wondering if I should leave it as-is, or Adventure-Team this "LASER BLAST" out of it.

Ooh - or build some pontoons and do an Adventure People homage....

I found one at Walmart about a year back with the pontoons on it. It's from that cheap line, adventure wheels I think

Got the same plane Chief. Got it for a song on clearance too. Figured it would make a great airplane for Lara Croft customs.

Need a small favor, since we are without a car for a while. These are still on clearance for $4.99 I believe and I could use it for a custom. If anyone could pick one up for me, then I'll mail the cash and the shipping as soon as I get it:


I'm planning on an attempt at making her:


Any help would be appreciated.

Those are clearanced already?

Didn't they just come out?

These at TRU Cap? I'll swing by tomorrow, since I have to get my windshield fixed and it's right nearby.

I'll keep an eye out to. If anyone snags Cap one, post it here so I know not to duplicate.

Spec, did you find the Saddle and Bridle kits where you found those hay bales? I snagged a ton of saddle kits for $2.98 each. Now all my cheap dollar tree horses can properly hold a cowboy or such. I never knew they sold the saddles separate - more than once I bought a $15 horse and rider just for the gear

They had a few at each of the TRUs I went to this week. I didn't check the price though.

Neat!

Well, I got my order of the True Heroes Hovercraft from TRU yesterday, but had to pick it up inside today.

Apparently the box was too big to fit in my post office box. Seriously though, there was enough room for another hovercraft box and about a dozen JOE 3-packs if someone was good at packing.

Also got the Captain America Ultimate Guide, Batman Character Encyclopedia, and the new Star Wars Character Encyclopedia.

Went to Free Comic Book day and got some free stuff, along with my subscription stuff/.

Then went to Barnes & Noble and got three Star Wars t-shirts for 75% off.
