Today's hauls!

The "Halo" ODST Rookie/ Drop Pods were on clearance for $6.49 each and the "Fortnite" Foundation figure was full price at Target.

The plant watering bulbs were $2.99 each at Big Lots and were picked up for the very alien texture on them. I couldn't decide which color I liked best so I bought 1 of each. You can see how they scale with a 4" figure in the last image.

I got the Creature from the Black Lagoon fossilized hand from EE. https://www.entertainmentearth.com/product/universal-monsters-creature-from-the-black-lagoon-fossilized-creature-hand-scaled-prop-replica/ft408908  It's some kind of die-cast metal, so it has some weight to it, which is nice, but it seems very underscaled like 1/2. Still cool though.

JDeck: Very nice addition to your collection! I love fossils and replicas of them. Fossils were the first things I collected as a boy. They made me want to become a paleontologist. Also thanks for the links!


TheSpectre: Wow, what a lucky strike on that Epic Battle Pack! Was just browsing through TARGET's online store. Congrats!

Had to hit Walmart for a new electric Razor as my old one died on me last night and scored 4 more of the feathered Atrociraptors!

Don't know if you all have seen this. The Armadillo from the Buzz Lightyear toy line. Its really too small for the five inch figures, except for the cockpit. The cockpit is designed to fit a Buzz 5" figure, so its way to open for a Star Wars figure. I'll modify it with a new seat so I can maybe fit two figures in there. Anyway, its available on Amazon for anyone whose interested:

Awesome stuff, that's a nice design for a cargo ship in the Star Wars universe in my opinion! Thanks for sharing!

It's a little small to haul much "cargo" but can work as a "courier" ship, or small troop transport. I'm pretty happy with it, given the lack of vehicles in the Star Wars line.

Marshalls clearance score!

$4.50 each!

The 2 different sets each have some great mini dinos that can be used as hatchlings with my 3.75" figures.

Yeah, Dan. I already had the XL-01 and the XL-15. I think they are calling them "Crystal Grade" as opposed to the smaller "Hyperspeed" ships. I hadn't seen the Armadillo, but happened to find it accidentally on Amazon - can't skip a decently priced ship! Especially when it is actually better scaled to 1:18 scale. So I've got all three also. I know they'd announced others, but I don't think those will ever materialize. :( Anyway, I've mostly finished customizing the XL-15 as a two-seater for Star Wars and hopefully it will show up in my figure thread one of these days soon (not sure I want to start a whole new vehicle thread). We'll see.  :)

Today's after work scores!

The 2 "Lightyear" robots are from DII, the discount store near my job. They were $5.99 each.

The dinosaurs and the old Lanard "Buzz Lightyear Of Star Command" tank are from American Thrift. Everything from there came to $21!
