Anyway, I came home with these guys...

Not bad figures, not bad at all. But they were overpriced? How much? I usually find Ultra monsters for around 9 bucks at most.

Yeah they didn't have any candy toys in the supermarket today either.

Hey Legion, I probably passed you on the highway while I was driving through Jersey earlier!

Anyway, I stopped off at a TrU in the "Fishtown" section of Philadelphia. I found and bought the Fusion Series Godzilla and MechaGodzilla. MG is rather cool, in my opinion, but Godzy's just kind of bleh...but I just said "what the hell" and took one anyway. If I passed it up, I'd just end up pissed about it later. Unfortunately, there were no Gigans to be found, which was the only Fusion fig that I was really excited about.

I ordered myself a Bandai 8" Destoroyah from BigBadToyStore for $40.00 - the only one they apparently had.

Destoroyah has always been one of my favorite kaiju, and since I'm selling his six inch figure, I thought I'd might as well fill the void with the original 8" figure of him. Plus, I'll finally have something to display with my 8" Burning Godzilla!

Get ready to be amazed.

I won a Bandai GMK Baragon for.....$20.51 plus $10 shipping. Yes, it comes with a tag. I guess it was one of those auctions that slips under the radar.

I didn't necessarily buy it, as much as I'll be getting it as a present, but my Dad pre-ordered me the X-Plus 30cm Varan earlier this evening for my birthday in August.

My most recent purchases were the Pack of Destruction for $30, a 6-inch Japanese SpaceGodzilla (my favorite villain monster) and the Banpresto 8-inch 2003 Godzilla...the one you could only get out of Japanese claw machines. I found all three at a comic shop in Worcestor, MA a couple weeks ago. They had a pretty impressive collection of kaiju figures for prices that were comparable (and in many cases beat) prices online.

I got the Kyomoto Collection version of Ultraman Taro. I needed a large-scale vinyl of him in the garrison, and this one tops out at 20 inches tall at the outstretched hand. Now if only I could find an Ultraman large enough to battle that two-foot tall Baltan...

Anyway, here's the new guy, rockin' like it's 1973:

And here he is with some of the gang:

:lol: Thanks man. That shot represents many years of effort. Haha...it kind of looks like Taro should be shouting "Behold my vinyl brethren!"
