Hello everyone,
I was just sitting here going through one of my photobucket accounts and i came across some pics of some of my anime figures that i took pics of a while back, so i thought id post them up here on this world :)
First of all id like to start with my collection of Gamestop Exclusive Love Hina Figures.
Gamestop Exclusive Love Hina Figures
A number of years ago when the Gamestop first opened here, they sold quite a bit of cool stuff. They sold anime dvds, anime figures, videogames for most systems - pretty much everything lol. The 2nd day they were open I walked in there and spent pretty much my entire paycheck lol. I bought all of their anime dvds, and all of the anime figures they had. The Love Hina Figures had been marked down to 1.00$ each, so i was dead set on buying the entire set, and i did. I opened 2 of the figures, but the rest of them are still in their packages hangin on the wall in my closet. Since they are Gamestop Exclusives, with japanese packaging - im not sure if they are worth anything, but who knows, maybe one day they will be lol. :)
My Rurouni Kenshin Figures
Shishio
Aoshi
Sojiro (still in package)
I bought these figures at Gamestop the same day that i bought the Love Hina Figures. They arent poseable, but they are still pretty cool lol. The Sojiro figure (the one still in the package) actually has a history lol. A couple weeks after i bought all of Gamestop's anime dvds and anime figures, i visited the store again, and right when i walked in one of the people that works there pointed at me and said "There he is!" lol. I was surprised by what he meant and i asked him if something was wrong. He told me that alot of people were mad that i had bought all of the anime dvds and they were especially mad that i had bought the Sojiro figure lol. He also said that everyday since then , someone had come into the store mad about the whole situation lol. Its a pretty funny story thats for sure, especially when it is about an anime figure that only cost me 2.99$ lol.
My Gundam Figures
I really wish i could see this pic clearly enough to label the names of each gundam. Right now i keep them all in a plastic tote in my closet, in order to protect them from my sister's animals, but i do take them out from titme to time for displays and to take new pics :) These are some of my favorite figures though - each one came with removeable parts, weaponds and they were fully articulated beyond belief. I still have the accessories as well as the cardboard backing from the boxes they came in, for profiling purposes lol. Each one is awesome though and i really wish they still sold them here where i work lol, they are the best :)
Well, i suppose that will be all for this post, i hope you all enjoy the pics and stuff, and i sure hope to chat with you all soon :)

I took some pics of some comic books i own a while back and i thought id post up some of the pics on here so you guys can check them out :)
Some of them are old and some of them are new. Ive been searching for how much they may possibly be worth (especially the older comics) so if you know of any place i can go to get some info, feel free to message me anytime :)
Here are the pics :)
Superman & Wonder Woman
Punisher WARZONE
Man From Atlantis
The Superman/Wonderwoman and Man from Atlantis comic books are pretty old, but the Punisher comic book came with a figure i bought a few years ago lol.

Hello everyone :)
I havent posted on this world much, so i thought id put up a post this weekend with some pics of some old stuff i have. Ive had these figures for quite a long time and ive always wanted to share them with you guys, especially other X-Men fans :)
From left to right -
Imperial Fang Disquised Wolverine, Weapon X, Deluxe Cyclops(background), Shatterstar (X-Force)
I got all of those figures sometime between 1992 - 1995, and ive always really liked the Weapon X and Shatterstar figures lol. The X-Men cartoon was still running weekly back then, so it was pretty exciting to play with the figures as i watched the show every saturday :)
Swamp Thing
This is my Swamp Thing figure. I believe this version is based on the cartoon that use to be shown, or possibly the 2nd movie - im not totally sure. This figure actually use to be my step brother's figure, but when he wasnt interested in figures anymore I took it in as my own. To this day he functions really well and he also still glows in the dark, which is always cool lol. I may watch the first Swamp Thing movie today, its been a good while since ive watched it lol.
"The Shadow" figures
These are my figures that i got a number of years ago shortly after the movie "The Shadow" was released. When i saw them at the toy store i got them at, i remember how cool they looked, especially the clear figure lol.Ive lost most of the accessories, but the figures are still in great shape and all function very good, plus they still look cool after all these years lol. The movie is also pretty cool if you havent seen it. It has some nice special effects for its time and is certainly enjoyable, thats for sure :)
Well, i thank you all for visiting and i hope you enjoyed the post :) Hopefully ill take the time to post more stuff here in the future, i need to stop being so lazy lol. I hope to chat with you all soon :)

Hello Everyone,
This is my first post here on my Toybox world, and i thought id start it off by posting about some anime related toys/figures that i have.
The toys ill be posting about today are from the anime series called Transformers: Robots In Disguise. It use to be shown on Fox around the same time they use to show Ultimate Muscle and Medabots. Up until that point, i hadnt seen any Transformers related shows or new material since the original Transformers series was shown when i was really young lol, so it was really cool when i caught the episodes and i began recording them. Pretty soon after the series started getting good, the toys began hitting the shelves, so i went and bought some lol. The first one i bought was of course Optimus Prime. In this series he was a Firetruck, which was different, but still cool. He was still a great leader and he still had that aura about him lol.
here is a pic of My Optimus Prime in battle mode
Optimus Prime - Battle Mode
Next, i ended up buying the Ultra Magnus Tranformer. In the original Tranformers series he was 2nd in command to optimus Prime, but in this anime version he was a bit of a loner. He also reprised his role as a Car Carrier. This transformer is so difficult to transform lol. When i pulled him out of my closet last week to transform him into robot form to take pics, it took me about an hour and a half lol. Here is a pic of Ultra Magnus in Robot Form
Ultra Magnus
The other reason i wanted to get both of those transformers was that in the anime series, Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus could combine to form Omega Prime (i believe that was the name they used, ill have to double check lol). Awesomely enough, if you managed to have both of the toys, they could combine as well. Here is a pic of them both combined in Omega Prime form :)
Omega Prime
I also have the Build Team from the series, which was a group of construction vehicles that combined into one large transformer called Landfill, ill have to dig him out and take some pics of him as well :)
I dont play with them or anything, but they are still awesome to look at. The series had alot of upside to it, and im glad i was able to record all of the episodes before it was taken off the air. when i was browsing the internet last week for the Ultra Magnus transforming instructions, i came across a site that advertised the series on dvd, so i may have to check that out sometime :)
Well, i thank you all for visiting and i hope you enjoyed the post :) i hope to chat with you all soon :)
stay strong,
