Still rolling in the loot Dan!

I have been fortunate that there are so many cool places to shop in my area and they all have great clearance sales :)

Finally picked up a Bowser World of Nintendo figure, this one is the 6" deluxe. I wish I had the room to display this one, its a phenomenal figure.

And the last purchases from my Amazon gift card from Christmas were DVDs of Big Train and Spaced. Both star Simon Pegg, who is one of my favorite actors. Big Train is a sketch comedy show, I remember seeing clips on youtube. Spaced is a British sitcom with a lot of Star Wars references. They actually had the guy who voiced Darth Maul in Episode I in a few episodes.

Also picked up Seasons 1-4 of Kenan & Kel, a favorite tv show of mine as a kid.

I went back to Big Lots and picked up some more of the near 1/18 scale fantasy diorama fodder!

FINAL toy haul of 2016!



How do you get sweet TRU coupons?  I have my eyes on a few Animal Planet sets, but retail aint gonna happen.
Thanks to some 50% & 55% off coupons, 50% off sales, uber clearance and R Rewards, I decided to splurge a bit on the final day of 2016.

My "The Corps!" Beast Strike sets from Amazon arrived today!



Spec we have very similar tastes.  Those two are running about $75 on Amazon.  Is that how much you paid?  They are real sweet, but that is too rich for me.

I could so see that second set being made into some type of SW Bunker Dio. Great sets.

After work clearance scores!



The "Jurassic World" Raptor 4pk was $10.48 at Target.

The TFA figure was $2.30 at Target (I have been wanting the vibro-axes he comes with since it was released).

The Schleich figure was $0.03 at Toys R Us.

The only full priced purchase was the "G.I.Joe" Zombie-Viper 2pk.

The 50% and 55% off coupons were from Michaels and A.C. Moore respectively. I get them by subscribing to their email newsletters.

The R Rewards are from Toys R Us, but you have to sign up for their R Rewards card to get them.

I scored them for $56 each. That was before they sold out of the first shipment in a single day. When they restocked, the price had jumped to $75 each.

There is a rumor that Walmart may get them in February for sub $50 prices, but that has not been confirmed as of yet. We will know more next month.
