Using some holiday money from my mother, I placed an order with Safari Ltd. for the last 3 dragons I was missing.

I got the Desert, Cabe and Guardian Dragons in the mail today.

I have been wanting the Desert Dragon since I saw it at Toy Fair last year :)

For Christmas I got an amazon gift card, which came in handy as I've been watching this for a while - Fenway Park: Home of the Boston Red Sox (100th Anniversary Collector's Set). There's 12 discs, with old games, highlights and a documentary. It also comes with a 28 page tribute.

Also picked up The Walking Dead Season 5 on blu-ray. There were 2 left, the first one the sleeve was a bit wrinkled. I grabbed the other one and unfortunately this one was also a bit mangled. However, the entire fifth season, 16 episodes on blu-ray for 30 bucks? Sounds like a win.

Forgot to post this the other day, I picked up a World of Nintendo 8-bit Mario figure. I would like to get 8-bit Luigi as well.

Today I picked up some UDF Mario figures. These are fairly new, and UDF stands for Ultra Detail Figure. They are very nice figures. I picked up Fire Mario from New Super Mario Bros. U, Tanooki Mario from Super Mario Bros. 3 and Yoshi from Super Mario World.

I got this awesome Davros Christmas ornament from my friend Eric. It looks AWESOME with the 3.75" "Doctor Who" figures :)

Thanks.

I use my phone for quick pics like this. I have an LG G4, which has the best camera available in a phone right now. I use my regular camera for taking lots of pics at places like NYCC and Toy Fair. My regular camera is a 16 megapixel Canon PHD (Push Here Dummy), nothing too fancy but it gets the job done :)

I got a great box full of Schleich Eldrador goodies!

I picked up the red version of the Blue Dragon w/Rider that I got for Christmas, the last 3 Dragons I was missing (Battering Ram, Hunter, and Warrior) as well as 2 accessory sets.

The accessory sets are not as nice as the dragons unfortunately.

The sword from the Dragon's Treasure is cheap looking but I think I can save it with one of my paintjobs :)

The crystal base from the Magic Fire Sword is not nearly as well executed as the protoype was but it is still servicable.

I love the dragon stuff. I had a dragon shelf once upon a time. Still one of my favorite books is the Dragonlance Book called Legend of Huma. I will go so see any movie with a feature focus on dragons no matter how awful.

I like the sword in the stone, with your paint work it will be something special.

At Toys R Us I picked up a Gold Mario figure from the World of Nintendo line. They also had Cat Luigi, and while I'm not a fan of that power-up, I'm always welcomed to more Luigi figures. They only had one and the paint job was a bit spotty so I passed.
