I haven't gotten my hands on any of the Joes yet. What makes it worse is that I want them all. But it's almost birthday time for me so I will be getting them soon for myself.

My “Little Bit of the Bubbly” figure set came yesterday. I couldn’t bring myself to open the bottle to take the stuff out. Might have to grab another one and display it both open and closed.
I need to stop watching what Cardona and Myers do...

I had wave 1 pre-ordered through BBTS. Gave up canceled that order and got them through Amazon. They came in yesterday (Didn't get the normal Snake Eyes as I've got the Pulse Exclusive pre-ordered through Pulse). Haven't really done much with them yet. Like them so far though. Real irritated at the Target Exclusives selling out so fast. Hope they are easier to get when they release. Custom Mythic Legion figure I did up. Head, Shoulder Armor, Chest Piece all from Planetary Dog Toys. Everything else stock ML pieces I painted. -edit- Oops. Arms were from a WWE Create a Wrestler thing.

I have a bunch of stuff from GI Joe, TMNT, wrestling, MOTU and various other things.
Currently the only thing I'm sort of obsessed with is the WWE Masters of the Universe line. Was SUPER happy to find wave three today and was even able to score an extra Undertaker/Scareglow for my buddy.

I'm planning to get Most of the basic Biker Mice action figures with heir bikes, I have Vinnie and his Rocket bike, Lawerence Limburger and Greasepit, I may build a Diorama for them when i move to a bigger apartment.
I also have S.H Monsterarts 2019 Goji, Ghidorah and Mothra paired with NECA Rodan. (man Ghidorah takes space).
I'm also planning on collecting most of the Chogokin series of Gaogaigar figures, I have Gaogaigar itself and Volfogg so far.
But the cherry on my action figure collection is Live aid version of Freddie Mercury

Not sure if anyone is collecting McFarlane's "DC" Multiverse, but he just revealed a bunch more stuff today. I put "DC" in quotations because it's really just a gazillion more Batmans. I miss DC Universe Classics.

was working my NECA stock this week and had the pepsi vendor at one of my Targets ask me about the Turtles Musical Mutagen Tour box...I have that feeling if Targets get physical stock of it instead of just online this will be a huge head ache for me.

NECA screws you guys so hard. I know for a fact their distribution is shit, but they always pass the buck and blame the stores. Fact of the matter is that they produce limited quantities to drive demand, which only screws the stores like yours who are advertised to have the product exclusively.

Fact of the matter is that they produce limited quantities to drive demand, which only screws the stores like yours who are advertised to have the product exclusively. I can tell you too, I service 6 Target stores for NECA, and I get to frustrated with them at times, so for example the last Toon Terror line right, only 1 of my 6 stores got the Nosferatu one, all the rest just got Ash and The Nun. Same shipment only 1 of the stores got the Halloween 3 box, oh and NECA only sent 2 of those in the stock and have yet to sent that again. This week the big ones are the Metalhead Turtle, and the Casey Jones and Foot Soldier 2 packs, they actually sent them to all 6 Targets, but stock wise its laughable, they are creating their own rare to find items, like just for an exmple number wise Target 1 - 2 Metalhead, 4 Casey Jones 2 packs. Target 2 - 3 Metalhead, 2 Casey Jones 2 packs Target 3 - 5 Metalhead, 2 Casey Jones 2 packs Target 4 - 1 Metalhead, 3 Casey Jones 2 packs Target 5 - 4 Metalhead, 2 Casey Jones 2 packs Target 6 - 1 Metalhead, 1 Casey Jones 2 pack and then people are made at me like im in charge of ordering this stuff. Ooooh and to make matter better, Neca keeps sending all these Godzilla figs that are shelf warmers. Like they will send like 5 or 6 each Godzilla line in the shipments. Like they have to see its not selling.

Today was a wild goose chase looking for the NECA Ninja Turtles Musical Mutagen Tour set. I went to 4 Targets to find nothing then they went on "sale" on Target.com at "4 pm". I refreshed the page starting at 3 and still couldn't get one. But they're on e-bay for $300-$500. Screw that.

The Chyna/HHH 2-pack arrived this morning. I dig them. They already teased more Chyna figures in the future so no one has to get this one necessarily, but I think they look good. I like that blue blood hhh is looking disapprovingly at degenerate hhh.

And you don't feel like always having to resort to buying things from scalpers.

That Bray Wyatt is disappointing. The “sweater” is laughably lazy. Probably still gonna grab it because I’m a sucker for Ringside Exclusives.

Also I wonder if they’ll do a “Comic Con at Home” Exclusive?

I refreshed the page starting at 3 and still couldn't get one. But they're on e-bay for $300-$500. Screw that. Next week is when the Musical ones hit, this weeks roll outs Turtle wise were Casey Jones and Foot Soldier cartoon 2 packs, and Metalhead. I can tell you just going off the tracking on the shipment to the stores i checked, the shipments arent showing up until Monday at the latest, However, this one is not apart of the regular Tuesday service order's we can schedule it whenever this week. So just be on the look out starting on Tuesday. I can also say that sadly Target Corporate does not allow us to stick NECA at the Electronics service desk anymore. I used to like cross promote and put some at the NECA section, then have like 3 or 4 units at the Electronics desk for people who want them and would go and ask for them, sadly thats not allowed anymore.

Are you not in America because Big Bad Toy store ships them no problem. Also, I'm so glad I'm not into TMNT, Predator, or Alien because Neca would make me broke.
