TOY HAUL: 1:18 Harley Davidson Chopper



I've seen a lot of my fellow collectors pick this one up for their MU figs especially for Ghost Rider which everyone's having a hard time finding a ride that fits him. I didn't find the urge to get me one, since I already have a bike for my Ghost Rider that came from an old Toybiz figure of mine. However, my stand to get one changed when I saw these:

TOY HAUL: Iron Man & Spider-Woman Comic Pack


I started collecting Marvel Universe figures first before I even started to read comics. I vowed to stick to one figure per character so as to avoid overspending. I remember the time I got hold of an MU Spider-woman (Jessica Drew) figure from Toy Kingdom. I have no idea who she was back then, and what her story was. All I know is that I have yet to own a Spider-woman figure and so I did purchase her right then and there.

TOY HAUL: Malaguti Phantom F12



   Finally got employed for my first job last week and started working Wednesday. Being employed in a learning institution just literally behind Greenhills Shopping Center gives me the privilege to check out every hobby and retail shops every after working hours, and that I did. Everytime I go home, I make sure to pass by Greenhills first to check for some good finds.

TOY HAUL: Marvel Universe Multiple-Man

I was finally able to complete my X-men related figure checklist yesterday. Got these items from a fellow collector who's selling them as a set. I was really eyeing this set from the time he posted it back when it was sold for Php 3,000. However I wasn't willing to pay more than SRP for a loose figure. After weeks, he posted the same item but at a lower price. I immediately put a dibs on 2 figures, and fortunately two other collector dibs on the remaining 3 as well. I was the one who meetup with the seller since I'm just a 15 minute jeep ride away from the meeting place. Got there on time, and was able to bring them all home with me until their respective owners get theirs from me. Seeing them together on hand feels great since I'm not really an army builder type of collector and seldom do I see these many of the same figures right in front of me. If I had a choice, I wanted to keep them all, but for my pocket's sake I'd stick with my army-of-two vow. Cheers!
