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:

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.
I don’t work here or anything, but it’s a decent sale and I’ve bought from them before. There’s a sale going on at darkfigures.com today. In addition to items on sale, if your order is over $99 you get free shipping. Go check em out. Be sure to use the coupon code DARK0666 when checking out.
EDIT 12/2/2009: 5% OFF ANY IN-STOCK ITEM USE COUPON CODE: YSFDARK
I can’t even describe how awesome this is, so check out the videos for yourself. :)
I wasn’t sure if this should be in the Off Topic or not, but since it’s Gundam, I’ll throw it in the General Toys category.
