A 37" would be swell, but I'm in a small room with my bed, computer, tv, game consoles, dresser, a portion of my comic collection and my TFs. Soooo...yeah. Precious little room.
Oh, and I work for only slightly more than minimum wage :P

Universe Legends Megatron- Neat enough little toy, though the prices on these are edging towards absurd. I wish his turret turned in tank mode, and that his elbows bent in robot mode. Still, the transformation has some nice twists (I like the trick with the head turning on its side to get the turret oriented), and I like the way the green helmet looks.

You are not the only one who is complaining about the newly expensive "Legends" scale figures. I will probably be skipping them as well, aside from the 3 I have on the way now.

Could be. I dunno, I'll wind up with Shipwreck, Tripwire, and whoever comes with Nemesis Enforcer in the Two-packs, but, then what? Then I end up thinking, ah, hell, I should get Gung-Ho. Or Bazooka..

You see where this leads? I'm just trying to keep myself from going ape with these things, Dom. Ape!

Heh, if my "Platoon" Willem DaFoe figure is drafted into the Joes, then he's got all of my Cobra army to deal with. He can do it, he has the powers of Jesus, the Green Goblin, and the "Boondock Saints" cop combined!

Lt. Falcon comes with Nemesis Immortal. These are also out now.

Also, when this line started, I made a simple resolution--I'd buy figures of characters I liked and that I thought looked cool. Coincidentally, I happen to like, er, almost all the Cobra characters, so I ended up getting them. And the Original Thirteen Joes was the resolution--or at least some kind of vague facsimile. And then guys like Falcon and Red Star snuck in via two-packs, and I gotta get Mainframe because I like Mainframe, and whenever they get around to doing Shockwave, I'm getting him too. And I got Jetpack Duke because I guess I need a Duke and I could give his backpack to Grand Slam.

Hey....give the jetpack to Grandslam.....of course, that still leaves me with an extra Duke.....


I started off with 2 simple categories: Iconic and Sentimental favorites. Of course, "sentimental" is a vague categorie. Hasbro getting lax with Doc-gate snapped me out of it. I am back to where I actually started with the line, having skipped much of the last 2 waves. There are 3 upcoming figures I want. And, I am still holding out hope for Mindbender, Law and Order, and Raptor. And, if Hasbro makes any more 25A DDP characters, I would love Sei-Tin, Kamakura, Philip Rey, Alexander McCullen and any member of the Plague team.

Dom
-oh yeah, also got Movie Grindcore.

It boggles my mind (heh) that they haven't made a 25A Mindbender! Especially considering that the guy has been popping up in a lot of the two-pack comics...

I'm hoping for Law as well, if only so I can pose him with Shipwreck, Spirit, and...I dunno, Roadblock or Gung-Ho in my "Village People" display...
