One of the best things about some modern collecting (I’m looking at you MOTU Origins) is all the extra bits you get to make your own custom figures and how pop and swappable parts are. Making another berzerker Skeletor who forgoes magic for a mace. Needs more parts but not a bad start.
Came home to this yesterday. I’m going to have to re-purchase figures from Japan that I could have bought *while* I was there because delivery people keep saying they can’t deliver to the house because of this crap.

Guess I’ll be getting that Super chunk Cosmos after all. New Legends for the win. I’ll probably get Soundwave as well.
Just watched Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender. Amazing. Did not realize how much I needed to see the original Team Avatar together again. This was so good I may watch it more than once. I would have really enjoyed seeing this on a big screen.
Put. It. In. My. Veins. Cannot wait to see how they handle all the Missing Link cassettes.
Just put an order in for the Macross: VF-1J Valkyrie - 45th Anniversary Origin of Valkyrie Ver. This is the closest thing to a Missing Link I’m guessing we will get. It has added articulation. If they do the Hikaru VF-1S, that’s a purchase too.

Finally got around to doing the face swap on these guys. Way easier than I expected. Much better looking this way.
There is construction on my street, and even then, USPS and FedEx are delivery packages. So of course UPS, who has 4 packages, (including Mondo 200X Skeletor) cannot figure out how to deliver. 🤬
I just saw a roadrunner. I wasn’t even aware they were found in East Texas.
I can’t get over how great the Mondo Skeletor is, the best ever.
Dramatic Capture Bombshell For whatever reason Bombshell's animation character sheet presents an impossibility. In alt mode he has a purple thorax. In bot mode, this section is inexplicably grey. An impossibility for a toy so he really sticks out as a bug. #Transformers
More pics after work but initial review is Hot damn (in the best possible way) Mondo 200X Skeletor is phenomenal! #MastersOfTheUniverse
My youngest bought me a sticker with 2 of my favorite Pokémon while we were in Tokyo. This is getting put in a special place in the collection.
My favorite non-glow-in-the-dark pic of the night. It’s awesome that Grimlock has fingers now, as poses like this with the Diaclone figures is now possible.
Had to take a few shots of Missing Link Grimlock before putting up for the day.
Green Lio Convoy robot mode. I’d have taken more pics, but this is around the time I started to get a tension headache.
Green Lio Convoy beast mode, supercharged with a UV light.
Green Lio Convoy really is the brightest glow in the dark figure I’ve ever owned. No trickery or editing, just a little hit with a UV light and an iPhone.
I can’t believe I got these home all the way from Japan with no damage to the boxes, via a carry on bag on the plane.
Dramatic Capture Kickback My favourite version of this mould thus far. The stripped back simple look really lets his character shine through. The red visor does a much better job of drawing the eye without all those other paint apps cluttering up his form. #Transformers
Big update to the Hasbro Marvel Legends Q3 preorders timeline. A bunch of stuff goes up this week including the first wave of Doomsday. If a listing doesn't have a date that means we haven't gotten one yet. Looks like our current figure count based on preorder for 2026 is at 95.
