Those are cool drawings. I like the Cobra Commander pitching with the game on the line.

Now that I have all four, took a group shot with my ultimate collections as a backdrop, an idea I got from another shot I saw.

The Turtles figures look pretty cool. Love the idea of using the book as their background. Nice picture.

The new TMNT figures are awesome, I have 2 so far and can't wait to get the other 2. The price of $8.99 each is great too, considering a GI Joe or Star Wars figure are 10 bucks or over.

Yeah I really like them. I wish the other five figures in the line were to the same standard to detail and articulation but ah well. The Shredder figure is not too bad.

Yea the price on the TMNT is great, good job getting the rest of the team. That sux that you can't find that shirt. Yea my local flea market as a guy who has a bunch of action figures and usually has a few 200X in stock, i finally decided to pick it up, I wanna get all the basic characters now and a few he-man/Skeletor variants that I don't have yet

We discovered Cobi sets last week at the tank museum. They're a European company, and a large segment of their line are miliary vehicles. They work with Legos. We've picked up 3 little sets for Daniel at Hobby Lobby that were all on clearance, this is the Jeep.

Cool little pieces for sure.

Crash, those Turtles look great. I ended up getting all 4 of teh Turtles. They just look so awesome and they are priced perfectly when you compare how much more you get with them to Joes and SW figures.

I'll have to check out that image at home, Jon. Was blocked by my work computer. Boo!!

Raphael is my favorite, with Donatello coming in a close second. However I have to say that Donny looks so badass I had to get him first. Now that I have Raphael, Leonardo is next on my list. I like Mikey but he's definately #4 in my book.
