Need to clear some things out, so I’ll be selling off some of my figures. All are new, never removed from the box. Boxes show some signs of wear, but nothing significant. If you’re looking for pristine boxes though, look elsewhere. I have the following 1/6 scale (12″ inch scale) figures for sale:

As this is now a VERY part time site, I’ve done away with the forums due to lack of activity. This site will go back to just being a place where I post my own stuff every now and again as the mood strikes me. :) Comments will be opened to registered users though (in lieu of forums). Bout it. Catch you later!
Hope everyone has enjoyed the holiday season. If you’re in to that sort of thing, I hope you got all the presents you asked for as well. What was your favorite thing you got this year? I’d say by far mine was the 10 days off from work in a row. ;) Free time is great.
I was also happy to get Dexter seasons 1-3, Big Bang Theory Season 1, and Daybreak Season 1. Got some other goodies, but no toys…but that’s okay. I’m short on space for more plastic people. :)
So what’s on your list this year? Is there a “must have” toy that you’re looking forward to getting as a gift or for yourself this winter? I typically don’t ask for toy stuff for the holidays or my birthday. It’s a hobby that I enjoy from start to finish, so I tend to buy it all myself.
I have been surprised on occasion by people picking up something for me unexpectedly. Doesn’t happen often though, so I never bank on any new toys showing up during the winter holiday season.
I think my toy buying is on hiatus until January. At that point in time, I’d really like to get Hot Toys John Connor (first version as well as Final Battle), Hot Toys Astro Boy MMS figure, and the Hot Toys Astro Boy Vinyl statue (if it has no lights built in, I’d be modding it to light up). Non-toy stuff I need to grab… X-Files season 9 dvd’s, Leon (The Professional) Director’s Cut dvd, a bottle of Obsello Absinthe, and various other movies and books.
So how about you? What sorts of things are your “must have” items? Aside from toys is there anything else you’re really looking forward to? Books? Movies? Tools? Robots? cybernetic implants?
I should have this fellow delivered tomorrow. Looking forward to him. :) Comes with two great head sculpts and with a little bit of work (and a few extra pieces) you can get another figure built. I’ll do a review of him when he shows up, so check back on this thread later (hit the forums for details).
I picked him up at DarkFigures when they had their Black Friday sale. They currently have 5% off any in stock item if you use the code YSFDARK at checkout. Thinking about picking up a second one. Wanted an extra undamaged head to use on a custom, but the heads are going for $50+ on Ebay now. Yikes… better off buying the set again and selling stuff I don’t need.
