Today's Aquisitions

Not only did I pick up some cool comics that were put in plastic slip-covers with paperboard backing for protection because I signed up for a pull-list at my local comic shop (which means they write down what titles I want and put them aside for me to pick up at my leasure soon after, so no worries about missing a day--I can get them the following week), but I then stopped by Toys R Us because they told me they had Serires 6 minifigs in, and they did!

 

I only had a few minutes to feel bags (my friend, driving, was on a schedule to get back to campus), but I purchased nine figs and got:

One spacegirl (I wanted at least two, or all that I could find. Either would work)*

One Alien (I wanted two)* (And finally a 3-unit long green lightsaber rod. Would be good for Yoda if I had him.)

Two Minotaurs (I probaby thought a head was a spacegirl helmet, or the Statue of Liberty*)

Two Romans (I probably mistook a helmet for a spacegirl helmet. I gave one to my friend for driving)

Two Genies (Again, I probably thought the turban was a spacegirl helmet. Oh well, he's pretty cool, especially the gold hands.)

Skater girl (I have no idea how I mistook her for something else. But the hair is cool, and the striped sleeves can be useful. Maybe on the spacegirl suit, with some black legs and/or helmet?)

 

So I think I'm done buying S6 minifigs.* Series 7 looks just splendid, so I can't wait!

 

-CF :kakama:

*Luckily I ordered another spacegirl, alien, and Lady Liberty for near-market price.

So you were potentially grabbing like 5 space girls, and most turned out to be other things. :P

 

Not a bad haul... there are worst things than getting an extra roman. :)

> 3-unit long green lightsaber rod

 

Wait what

 

Is that actually a thing?

Yep. In fact most "lightsaber rod" pieces in the Minifigures theme are that size. It debuted in Series 1, with one in Transparent Light Blue on the Spaceman and one in black with white printing as the wand of the Magician.

 

Anyway, great haul!
