A soldering gun. I have TNG Tricorder modification project that I've been "working on" for over 5 years. I bought the upgrade kit right before my wife and I started dating and... yeah, it's been sitting in the garage since. Nice to finally have some forward momentum on that project.
A new bed. My old one was pretty high, like 3 1/2 feet and I had to hop into it. The new one is considerably shorter.
And back to TF hauls: Core class Snarl. Did I mention this one yet? Cause I got it and now have the complete Volcanicus. Sigh.... Ok. I like having the individual Dinobots in core scale. Dear Hasbro: The Dinobots DO NO NEED TO COMBINE!!! Stop making them combine!!! I like the idea, but the execution leaves us with Dinobots with a LOT of sacrifices made in service of a combined mode that isn't worth the sacrifices. I would have preferred better individual bots that don't combine instead of what we got. Still, I appreciate that they're trying something new and I do hope this leads to other core class combiners like Devastator. Most of them actually do look pretty good in both modes, with the exception of Sludge. His robot mode legs took a hit that is... yikes. Anyway... are they great? No. Are they good for what they're meant to be? Yes, and it's better than nothing. But I expect better ones in the future.
The "not sure if I mentioned these already, apologies if I have" list:
Transmetal II Blackarachnia: Got this a while back but don't remember if I posted it. It's my favorite of the TF spiders.
Legacy Transmetal II Megatron: I love this one almost as much as the original. I'd love it as much if it had the same amount of vacuum metalized color on it.
Armada Universe Megatron: It's smaller and doesn't have the features of it's larger original inspiration. Which just feels cheap. I don't hate it, and it does a good job of representing the original figure well, but I can't help feeling you'd be better off just buying an original. Then you get the fun of all the features. Also, the bit that on the original would slide up to hide the face, is instead a pieces that folds into the chest. Even though the detail is there for the piece that you would use to slid it up and down. I seriously messed with that for about 10 minutes before figuring out that it doesn't slide

Legacy Evolution leader class Nova Prime: Got this yesterday and I love it!! Yes, it reuses a lot from Ultra Magnus and presumably Cybertron universe Optimus Prime, but it's different enough that he's definitely his own thing. Complete with White Optimus, which I love. My only complaint is that when he's not holding the big guns in robot mode, they flip up behind the back and you can see how hollow they are. Hasbro really should have made those more solid. But other than that, I love it.
