Those BFS Figures are just fantastic. They easily seem to be about the top action figures in terms of sculpt and articulation and detail right now imo.

I picked up this cool "Dinofroz" Gladiator T-Rex figure at TJ Maxx on clearance for $8.

With a repaint he will make a cool 3.75" scale monster. The orange and black armor is almost organic looking.

I had a 20% off coupon for TRU so I grabbed the 6th and final "Mech-X4" Chameleo Wasp I wanted for my swarm.

After getting the $20 adjustment on that Schleich set I bought a few weeks back, I figured I would order that Lontic dinosaur set from Amazon that had the Pachyrinosaurus I was missing despite the price being higher than I have paid for any other Lontic set. The package arrives today with the wrong Lontic set in it. I called Amazon and they said that they did not have any of the sets that were on their website in any of their warehouses so a different set of the same value was sent. I told them I had ordered the specific set on their site for a reason. They told me that they will refund my card for the price of the missing set and to keep the set they sent for the trouble.

I did not get the set I had wanted but, hey, free dinosaurs! :)

I also broke down and bought the NYCC Funko "Stranger Things" 3pk as I was getting tired of wasting gas going to all of my local Targets each week looking for the closed mouth Demogorgon.

I finished up my latest Stranger Things Marathon this weekend as an early birthday treat. I love that show. It is so me. I could have been one of those kids. So tempted to get the AFs for this line.

I got 2 awesome trade packages in the mail today!

The second package contained a pair of real metal Orc swords my friend Chris (2DARK2C) from www.JoeCustoms.com made me. They have working razor sharp blades!

Hit up your local Game Stops!

They are having a 50% off all clearance items sale this weekend!

I scored all of this across the 5 closest Game Stops to my house (both Cliftons, both Waynes and Lodi).

The Star Wars Rathtars and Probe Droids were $7.49 each. The Cyborgs were $4.97 each. The Rogue One 4pk was $9.99. The Skyrim skeletal dragon was $7.49.

The stores I visited had tons of collectibles (mostly 6" scale and larger) so it's time to hunt!

Gamestop clearance is the best. Its even better that you can check the stock of any item in store (BTW) on the webpage.

Had no idea they popped the creature sets down... Time to hunt.

*update* -----
Hit my local GS tonight (going two more tomorrow). Found:

Vader probe x2
Rathtar x1
Han/boba x2

WalMart next door had the leia/dj/exile wave and the exclusive ponda wave (minus boba... Of course right?). Passed on it all I just don't care to spend $$$ on this stuff anymore on sight. The GS sale is exactly why 😉 lol!
