New, Non-Star Wars Purchases
« on: August 20, 2011, 03:26:24 PM »
I figured this thread was long overdue, and not sure why we never created it before, but this is for anything you bought recently that was NOT Star Wars.

Yesterday, I got in the mail the Weasley Twins mini-busts from Gentle Giant's Harry Potter collection.  Fred and George in polystone glory!  Review to come soon.

Saw some The Hobbit figures today at TRU! Picked up Gandalf and a two pack of Legolas and Tauriel. The cool thing is that these figures are 1/18 scale.

Well... I haven't opened them up yet, but they look about as good as the Hasbro products. I don't think they are quite as good as the old 6" LOTR figures, but they still look good for 3 3/4" figures.

I think they must have tweeked the story a bit because he's such a popular character.

My local K-Mart has a floor dump set up by the door containing the entire 3 3/4" "The Hobbit" line except for the Goblin King boxed set. The best part: some numbskull employee tagged each and every section with the $7.99 single pack figure labels. I snagged Grinnah The Goblin like I wanted to complete my collection (the rest of the line I snagged from TRU when I got a ton of 20% off coupons last month) and a Bilbo/Gollum 2pk (I only wanted Gollum but he is not single packed) both for $7.99 apiece! :)
