I kind of wish I had some sort of discernible artistic talent so I could buy the other one they had and try to make an Andy in a suit or a Latka.

What in God's name is that? Is that an Elimination Chamber for those tiny WWE figures.

Yep. The mirrors on the ugly-looking stage are sparkly, like they're girly stickers. If it weren't for the first two playsets, I'd give up on Micro Aggression altogether. I find it kind of odd how it uses the old SD stage for it, since the EC has never (and most likely will never) be used on free television.
But hey, it came with a different-colored Mysterio, so it wasn't a total loss.

What's the big red button sticking out of the side?

It's supposed to make the figure inside "smash" out of the pod, but the spring is so weak, all it does is gently tap against the doors. Trying to play with it is like trying to transform TF movie Starscream, shit flies everywhere. I may have to put some sort of sealer over the stage stickers to keep them from falling off at the slightest touch.
If you were curious, those gold barrels on either side are supposed to be "flame pyro," but they won't stay up when you flick the lever.

It's surprisingly well sculpted. They even sculpted the gold arm bands, which is nice

I'm on the search for the dark knight Joker and Scarecrow. I know I will probably never find them but that won't stop me from looking...

Fuck you, Heath Ledger. You had to go and die, making it impossible to find your Joker figure. It's the only figure I'd hope to find when the movie was first announced and now I can't, and presumably never will.
On a sidenote, we should set up a BAF parts trade thread like at C-Cult, seeing how I only buy who I like now, so I'm stuck with a leg from Monkey Man, a leg from Brood, some random pieces of Annihilus, etc.

The only Hasbro ML figure I've purchased is the Silver Anniversary Wolverine, and even that is a repaint of a TB ML figure.

I haven't bought any action figures period in almost two months. I kinda moved away from the hobby.

Well, anyway, yesterday, I purchased the worst of the special edition Potato Heads, Idaho Spuds: Taters Of The Lost Ark. GUESS WHAT SONG PLAYS WHEN YOU PUSH DOWN HIS HAT.

All I need is the R2D2 version and I think I'll have them all, save for the baseball/football/basketball/whatever team colors ones.

I FOUND THEM! I FOUND THEM! I FOUND THEM!!!!!!!
Yes, I got myself a Movie Masters Joker, Scarecrow and Batman Begins Batman from Target today. Those were the only 3 they had on the shelf and I was beyond myself. I finally completed the wave, even though the movie masters are like 10.99-11.99 apiece I didn't care, I wanted them badly, especially after seeing the movie.

I came across that Lord Zedd at Kohls a few weeks back and nearly shit my pants. It was the most random find ever since I wasn't even aware they had some special edition original PR stuff out.
But anyway I just picked up the latest MVP DA in all black and silver. I don't even collect DA but I couldn't pass it up. It's detailed as hell.

I wish they'd make a new White Ranger. The only one I have is based off of the movie, where the figure line is done in metallic paint, which made battle scars show up too well.

I think in the next line of Power Rangers they are including a Classic White Ranger figure just like the Green Ranger and Lord Zedd they previously released. I know I have seen pictures of it somewhere...

Still on vacation, but I figured I'd post this stuff since it's awesome GONZO AS DARTH VADER! Best Indiana Jones action figure EVER. There is also a bunch of random Disney characters as Star Wars characters and a build your own lightsaber thing that I'm probably gonna take advantage of

The Joker wouldn't have even gotten through with his bank robbery if Indiana Jones lived in Gotham.
