The Recent Toy Acquistion(s) thread

Sweet stuff Coheteboy. I have not seen the Turtles yet in the stores. You going to get the mouser set at SDCC to go with them?

[Lost Boy]

I have all three kids in the Yule Ball outfits, Harry in Hogwarts and Quiditch, but no Dooby - yet. I also have Draco and Voldemort. They are in the photos I posted earlier of the Magic Room.

Does anybody know if there will be any WALL-E restaurant promotions (kids meal toys)? Burger King? McDonald's? BK just did Iron Man, Indy and now they're rolling out the Incredible Hulk.

[Lost Boy]

I haven't heard anything about Wall-E promos at McDonalds or anywhere else. That seems to be the only thing that isn't promoting Wall-E though. I think this will be Pixar's biggest hit yet.

I'm wondering if McDonald's will get WALL-E. I just checked them out and currently they have Kung Fu Panda toys.

and the website shows nothing this time for the next toy set and they usually do.
but Wall-E could be next.

Ok, here is the newest stuff and some more photos of stuff I already have.

First up is King Drako the latest boxed dragon from McFarlane:





And here is the latest "Mini" Big Fig, Peter Pan in his own Ride above Neverland:



I had to rearrange the shelf to get the new figure in:



My Godson while he was here decided to do some rearranging of some of my action figures and here is what he did to the Kingdom Hearts Sora figures and Roxas. I had them just all standing with the key down and facing forward. he made them appear more action oriented and moving:



Here are some figure setting I made using a toy Pinocchio from the live action film staring Martin Landau and Jonathan Taylor Thomas. The big one even has a photo of Taylor under the water that the wooden Pinocchio is looking into, right from the movie. The one next to it is from a photo on the back of the CD Soundtrack. The toy they put out was OK but I made changes to bring out the wood tone and also altered the basic standing figure:



I do have one shelf left that is devoted to Star Wars. You will see both the 1st and 2nd set of little figures from Disneyland showing the Disney Characters as Star Wars Characters:







And just some Star Wars figures and the Think A Way Ultimate Star Wars Bank made up of three separate banks that click together in sets of two and three combinations. Each versions play different music and lines. They do fight as well and light up light sabers complete the effects. One of the best Think A Way banks ever made:













Some more Paper Models and stuff on a bottom shelf:



And last but not least, Aliens and Predators:





Hope you enjoyed these.

Oooh the new Star Wars / Disney figures have finally arrived at Disneyland??

[Lost Boy]

Yep, and they have plenty of Stitch as Yoda this time. I got mine last Tuesday while I was waiting for my Godson and his Uncle to ride TOT and Screamin over in DCA. The Star Trader had plenty of all the figures. Goofy as Jar Jar, Minnie as Amadala, Mickey as Anikin, Stitch as Yoda and Donald Duck as Darth Maul.

So LostBoy, did you hear that Mcfarlane toys has canceled all of their inhouse figure lines? That includes the Dragons line, the fantasy line, and the Warriors of the Zodiac. BOOO!

[Melonballer]

Speaking of McFarlane's Warriors of the Zodiac line, I have been forgetting to update with my new toys. Here are 3 of the 4. I was thinking about getting all 12, but with the line cancelled I am jsut getting these 3. The one not pictured is Gemini, which I skipped.

My sign, Taurus.



And 2 pics of Aries.

For Indiana Jones, I added another Cemetery Warrior to my collection. I still can't figure out if there are three in the movie or just two. The insert with the figure says three, I saw the movie twice and I think there may only be two, but it's hard to see because they're jumping around in the dark. Also got the Jungle Cutter (which completes wave 2 for me) and Lego Indiana Jones for the PC.



I'm still looking for two things from wave 1: Indy with Ark, and Marion with Cairo Henchman.

Wave 3, featuring Last Crusade toys is hitting store shelves now from what I've been reading on the boards over at The Raven.

Also got a couple of books: Indiana Jones The Ultimate Guide and Indiana Jones Omnibus Volume 1.

[Coheteboy]

I have an extra Marion w/ Cairo Swordsman if you like, barbossa.

Also, Last Crusade figures are reported to have started to ship!


edit: although i guess you're in canada so that would be pricey indeed!

Not me. It's Barbossa who is looking for it. I'm not collecting Indy Jones. I will keep my eyes open for wave 3 though. Who is in it? I know Elsa and Henry Sr, but who else?
