No joke, I have been sitting on this article for at least half a year now. I just keep seeing stuff that I want to include, but I thought about it and figured I should just go ahead and post this as is instead of holding out to share more stuff I keep running into.
Giant Robots
Voltron: Legendary Defender (Netflix... obviously)
Ever since I was a kid, I wanted my own Voltron set of Lions to own. Fast forward to 2017, I'm 32 going on 33 and I STILL want my own set of Voltron Lions. Hell, beats trying to make Megazords and Voltron out of damn Legos and Construx Building Toys when you were a kid in the 80s because Voltron toys were rare as fuck.
Transformers
 |
| I was really tempted to get this for my best friend since he loved Hot Rod so much ever since we were kids. His birthday is in a few months, so I guess I still have time. |
I've recently seen Rodimus Prime too in another store.
WWE Action Figures
 |
| What's wrong with this photo? |
 |
| Isn't this Sasha's like 3rd or 4th basic figure now? Looks just like the last one! At least the face looks better than the Elite does. |
 |
| I wasn't even trying to find this and managed to snag an Elite Asuka after a late night movie screening. I have to wonder why Mattel didn't think to add Asuka's cape to add to her entrance gear. Just seems lazy to make a figure of Asuka without it. |

Cross Fit Jesus and Samoa Joe basic - another two alleged "rares" from Ringside Collectibles that I've seen in the wild. SMDH, I swear Ringside are some fucking crooks outside of their occasional holiday sales and clearance stuff. 9 times out of 10 their so-called "exclusives" can be found in the wild. FYI List of Jericho Elite Y2J can be found in GameStop of all places.

Savvy collectors, what's wrong with this picture?
|
 |
| Someone must REALLY doesn't like Tamina... |
 |
| All of that hype from Ringside Collectibles acting like these would be rare as fuck and I see them all the time in Toys R Us. |
 |
| Collectors might wanna hold off on these as I saw that Kevin Owens (at least the one with the NXT title) in Big Lots for $10 along with Samoa Joe's first Elite and a few others. |
 |
Seriously, the only thing I noticed when I first saw this was Dana's boobs in all of her big boobed glory. The figure itself was merely icing on the cake.
|
 |
| Those FigureArts The Rock and Stone Cold were originally told to collectors online that you would have to order them if you wanted one, but score again for Toys R Us having them in stock. I honestly don't want them TBH. |
Marvel Legends Series
 |
Seemed odd to do another Star-Lord when this one isn't that much different than his one from the first movie outside the lack of a trench coat. From what I've been told by fellow collectors, the trench coat made it hard to pose him in the previous line. I never opened mine from the original GOTG line so I wouldn't know.

Video Games (Games, Consoles, Accessories, etc.)
 |
| Clearance pick-ups from the local Wal-Mart for $3 a piece. Talk about a steal, man. |
 |
| After streaming Twilight Princess in its entirety on my Twitch/YouTube channel a few months ago, I honestly considered getting this. |
 |
| You'd be surprised on what you'd find in Goodwill from time to time. I tend to have a lot of good luck seeing older gaming consoles in there. |
DC Comics Multiverse
 |
| I have to admit that this Diana looks pretty good. Definitely a step-up from the shitty figure she got for BvS. |
 |
| Jay Garrick Flash and Supergirl were pleasant surprises, but looking up close at these and they could have touched up the faces better IMO. |
 |
| Zoom was a cool to see, but I think the new age Batgirl was the best out of this line of DC figures I've seen lately in the wild. |
Gaming/Anime-Inspired Merchandise
 |
| That Kratos looks pretty bad ass. |
 |
| The only thing that stopped me from picking up Mikasa was that the paint detailing on her face was HORRIBLE. |
