After work thrift store score!

The "Jurassic World: Dominion" Megaraptor was $2.99!

The "Lightyear" truck was $1.99! This is either the 5th or 6th one of these I have now as I grab every one I see for this price at the thrift store 😁

I picked up these awesome GITD hermit crab and reptile bowls at Corrado's Pets, which is closing and everything was 50% off!

These will be used in dioramas. Each package contains 2 bowls.

The 2 photos show the bowl sets with a 4" "Fortnite" figure for scale.

I picked up a bag full of "Fortnite" figures and accessories, as well as a bunch of random other figures (mostly junk that went right into the trash) for $6.99!

Aside from all of the "Fortnite" stuff, the second picture shows what useful items I was able to salvage from the junk.

After work thrift store score!

I found this 6" "Imdiana Jones" figure with display diorama for $3.99! The only marking on it are "China" and "Lucasfilm 2007", which makes me think it might be some kind for park exclusive item.

I bought it for the display diorama, which looks great with 4" figures as shown in the 3rd photo!

Indy will go into my Swap Shop.

You're right, it was a Disney exclusive 7" figure back in 2007. I found sealed sets for $45-100.
Awesome find here!

Today's Target score!

This "Godzilla x Kong: The Frozen Empire" Giant Shimo was $24.99 and a complete surprise as there was no announcement that Playmates was making one!

The 2nd and 3rd pics show the size difference between the Giant, standard and mini Shimos made by Playmates.

Happy Early Birthday to me!

The "Animal Quest" vinyl dinosaurs were from Party City and only $7.99 each! I covered the "Animal Quest" line at Toy Fair last year and this is the first time seeing them at retail. They are really nicely sized as you can see in the 3rd photo (I have huge gorilla hands, so these are big hunks of vinyl 🤣).

The "Jurassic World: Chaos Theory" figures were from Walmart and were $8.47 each. This wave was not expected until the fall so I was very surprised to find them already!

Birthday presents to myself!

The "Marvel Mech Strike" Ultron was $7.49 (originally $32.99) on clearance at Macy's.

The "Diablo IV" Blood Bishop was $36.97 (originally $49.99) on clearance at GameStop, and since the clearance items are "buy 1 get 1 free", I got the "Star Wars" 6" Black Series figure for free! The Blood Bishop will be some kind of Chaos God for my fantasy figures and the Star Wars figure will be customized into a troll (bonus that I wanted his weapon for like 2 years now and I have it 😁).
