Somewhat counter-intuitively, for me anyway; I didn't get a bunch of toys at the Lilac City Comicon but did get a fair pile of comics: the to-be-blogged pile has been good and restocked. The only figure purchase was a Re:Action Rocketeer on the cheap; which I'd put on the wall except the failure rate for the stupid little wall-sticky hooks has been pretty unencouraging. Later for that.
I did get a copy of Impossible Jones #1 signed by David Hahn! I've been getting those through their Kickstarters, so that was neat. Other than that, I think I got most of Dynamite's Lone Ranger for my dad; if I can just remember where I put the rest of them! Remind me later: putting something anywhere "so I'll find it later" might as well be burying it in the backyard.
You know I for one was & still aren't a big fan of those re: action figures, primarily due to the lack of articulation & small size. Definitely feel like a true collector thing where you're buying them mostly due to the character selection than anything else.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't going out of my way for them, but then I got a couple 3 3/4" figures on cards that maybe grew into a little display. If they'd stick to the goddamn wall. Ugh, you get what you pay for; but I think the wall itself is fighting those adhesive hooks.
ReplyDeleteAlso, it of course pains me that the 3 3/4" Marvel figures didn't make a Nightcrawler yet.
