Barbatos not Barbados

I loved Battle Beasts as a kid and I love minimates now so combine the two and I love it! These were part of a comic book collections wave that showed up at TRU. I hope they make more but for now these two awesome characters are good (except I don't like the that neither of them can hold the shield) The shark is Spyrnus and the Giraffe is Ruminant.

Then I try my best not to be a completist with minimates so for the Civil War movie set I only picked up this pack because #1 I always buy the Iron Man minimates and then this is the first Black Panther movie minimate so it worked out well this was the only pack from this wave that I wanted. There is a second Civil War wave coming that I will get some from. 

As much as I would love to go to Barbados on vacation I will have to live with this new Gundam I got Barbatos.  This is the largest Gundam kit I have put together and I happened to get it during teacher appreciation week at Barnes and Noble so I got 20% off.  This one had a really cool internal frame that you assembled and the put on the outside armor.  I have just started watching Gundam for the first time so even though I like Gundam without the show, watching has increased my desire to have more!

Nendoroid awesomeness!

While visiting a toy website I saw pictures of this awesome Megaman toy and it happened to be the day before Fan X so I searched and searched hoping to find it there. I found other figures from this series called Nendoroid (including a Mario and a Link) but didn't find the Megaman so I came home and found a good deal and ordered it on ebay.  The figure comes with lots of interchangeable parts including his face.  I love the look of this line, here's hoping they make more characters from Megaman.

FanX 16 loot and more

So added some more Lego minifigures to my collection here we have Martian Manhunter, Mini Flash and Captain Cold who are part of a new series with little vehicles, they are pretty cute.

At FanX and Comic Con you have peple who sell knock off Lego minifgures for cheap so it is a good opportunity to pick up some figures I want but don't want enough to pay for an actual Lego minifigure. Also there are some customs that don't exist as regular Legos so it is also a chance to get some awesome stuff.  Here I snagged knock off Aquaman and Hawkman.


I also snagged Captain Phasma and clonetroopers with red and yellow accents (I already have blue, orange, and gray).

Here we have Doctor Doom, Dr. Strange, and the one I just had to have GAMBIT!  Oh man he is my favorite X-man and one of my favorite all time super heroes so I am seriously lovin this minifigure!

My wife collects Disney Vinylmations and so knowing that I love these characters she snagged a Rocketeer and Tron for me!  She is the best.

I also snagged some more vintage SW figures for my collection.  Here we have FX-7 and Momaw Nadon.

Then I had this GI Joe as a kid he was the guy who always drove the snowmobile that we had so I found him and he is like new with super tight joints so I was happy about that.


My big FanX purchase was this Gundam that I liked because he is like a pirate he has a skull on his chest and he has some great weapons.  I love the look of Gundams and I love putting them together as well!

Alternate view.

Updated pictures of my toy room!

So we finished our basement almost two years ago and so I moved my toy room into the basement into the small extra room and I have never gotten around to taking some new pictures this first is from the doorway.

Here it is from the inside corner and the rest of the pictures are closer up pictures of my toy collection. Of course this is just my toy room so you have to realize that this is not my entire collection (mostly my Star Wars Legos are missing). The descriptions here are really basic so I am not naming everything in the pictures.

Here is a wall with SW figures that I haven't opened.


I created a bar to hang up my SW Christmas ornaments all year cause why not!
