I've been really lucky the last few days in finding some figs I thought I'd have to wait a long time for. In the last week I've managed to pick up:
Transformers Generations Wheeljack (a second one to open) Transformers Generations Warpath (x2) Transformers: Dark of the Moon Shockwave Transformers: Dark of the Moon Skyhammer
Marvel Universe Series 2 Ghost Rider Marvel Universe Series 3 X-23

The last figs I bought were... Marvel Universe: X-23 Marvel Universe: Sub Mariner (green undies) Marvel Universe: Darkhawk DC Universe: Atom (Indigo Lantern) DC Universe: Flash (Blue Lantern) I'm not really a Transformers fan but I like the classic looking ones. I think they are called GENERATIONS, right? We have Dirge and Thundercracker at work so I am thinking of picking them up soon. They just look to cool in robot form to pass up. I wish they did a classic Soundwave and Blaster. Classic Dinobots would be sweet too.
My Pull List
Marvel: All New X-Men, Avengers, New Avengers, Uncanny Avengers, Uncanny X-Men, Superior Spiderman, Indestructible Hulk, Thor: God of Thunder, Guardians of the Galaxy.
DC: Aquaman, Batman, Batman: The Dark Knight, Detective Comics, Earth 2, Green Lantern, Justice League, Justice League of America, Savage Hawkman, Superman.
Dark Horse: Star Wars

Apparently there was a Generations Cosmos figure that goes for big bucks. I'd love to see the Dinobots done again too. Shop At My Store!!

They have a Thrust figure out too to go with Dirge and Thundercracker. I'm tempted to get those too. They put out a Cybertronian Soundwave- he's based on the War for Cybertron video game design. the closest I've seen for Dinobots are the Transformers Animated ones. They have Grimlock, Swoop and Snarl.

I'd love to see McFarlane get his hands on the Marvel toy line. I have some of his older figures including the Movie Maniacs series and I loved the detail that went into each figure. I'm not so crazy about the current Marvel figures, I think they are cheaply made and the quality for what they charge isn't that great. I'll be buying all of these http://www.spawn.com/toys/series.aspx?series=509

McFarlane does put out a nice product. I used to have a $h!t-ton of Spawn figs back in the day. I like his twisted Wizard of Oz series. Those were awesome and disturbing at the same time.

Those were awesome and disturbing at the same time. I still do. Opened them and had them out for display. Now they are all individually bagged and in tubs. Anyone want to buy them? cheap? And yes, those Oz ones were extremely awesome and disturbing. Mrs. Claus from the Twisted Christmas line was, um, really nice.

Those were cool.

I loved the Twisted Land of Oz. I had them all but my son broke them/lost all the accessories. I really like Dragons and have quite a few of the Dragon Series still sealed learning my lesson  . Maybe i'll open them up when he gets a little older.

Those were beautiful. I never got any of those. I had stopped collecting McFarlane toys by the time these came out. So far, so good; I have my son trained not to touch "daddy's robots."

I'm on the hunt for Seekers - Skywarp, Thrust, Ramjet and Dirge. Also hunting for Cobra Infantry... I need about 20! Recently picked up 6 of the Cobra blue goons, a broken (dammit!) Beast Wars Transmutate fig, Thundercracker, a CoIE Qwardian Weaponer (want a second), and the DCUC Mightiest Mortals 2-pack. my wish list for figs is almost as extensive as my wish list of comics... and it seems to grow faster than the comics list. It doesn't matter if it's 50 Cents or 50 Dollars - if you list it as NM it better be NM.Xylob's Most Wanted:    G.I.Joe Special Missions TPB 2 Tales from the Transformers Beast Wars: Critical Mass Transformers: Timelines #3 - either cover, no preference.

Are you looking for G1? My LCS has a decent collection of TF. I can check to see if they have'em. The recent Generations line has Thrust and Thundercracker. You could always do a little kit-bashing for the rest.

You and me both, brother. And the new Transformers Prime line will be out in the next 2-3 months...

Picked up Marvel Universe Iceman today. Finally!
They had 2 Magnetos but the paint apps on the face looked all f'd up. They looked like the skin tone was rubbed off and you could see the plastic underneath. That's not how it's supposed to look is it?
They also had Absorbing Man. One looked like it could have been a variant. I don't really care for the character, but I should have picked it up. Anyone know if the put out a variant? If it's still there next time I'm there I may pick it up anyway.
