TOY HAUL: Ultimate Haul Update & Stuffs 2


       Just when I promised to end my hiatus, I did it again. This time it's even longer. I can't believe it has almost been a year and 2 months since my last post, and boy did things happened. As usual, I've been busy with my work, which kept me from finding time to update my blog. But then again, nothing can stop me from hunting! It's what we alpha males do! uhhmm.. toy hunting that is. So here are the additional plastic weights for my shelves to support which I have acquired this 2013.
        Oh, and welcome back to me.. Yay! One thing's for sure, I'll be back posting reviews and updates more often and this time I'm pretty sure of that since I'll be having a lot of free time by the end of this month. So let's get on with the update!

TOY HAUL/ ARTICLE: Superhero Showdown Spider-man | Superhero Showdown Line


        Recently got hold of my third Superhero Showdown figure! Thanks to jedicholo's FS thread in PTK. I got this for only Php 200! Yay me!

        For those who aren't familiar with it, it's an old line created by Toy Biz the same manufacturer that handled the 6" Legends line before Hasbro owned the said company. It was released back in 2005, which includes a gimmicky game that involves cards and dice of some sort. Its scale is within 4" which makes it fully compatible with the Marvel Universe line.

Bye-Atus! (an end of a hiatus): Ultimate Haul Update & Stuffs


       It has been exactly 1 month and a week since I made my last post, and how glad am I to finally be back! Work has really been draining my energy lately, since I sit in front of a computer, photoshopping all day til the late afternoon. Though I might be on a hiatus with my posts, it didn't affect my toy hunting at all. In fact it has been a very fruitful month for me with regards to my plastic hauls.

You've Got Mail!: Toy Expo VIP Night Invite

Two days ago, someone in Facebook was asking toy bloggers to send in their full name, email, and blog site for a chance to get invited on the VIP Night of Toy Kingdom's Toy Expo. Just for the sake of trying, I did send in my details and blog site without really expecting on whether or not I get an invite. However, when I checked my email after I got home from work today I saw this! It's an email inviting me to the VIP Night of Toy Kingdom Toy Expo on August 22 at SMX Convention Center! I never even thought I'd receive an invite or even a reply from them! 
 However there's a dilemma. The 22nd of August falls on a Wednesday, which means I do have work on that day and I only get to go out at 5pm. (darn it! why not put the event during the 2 day holiday -_- ) So I'm not sure if I can attend the said event or not.  Anyway, to be invited is an honor itself, and whatever happens, if I do attend or not, I'm glad to have been given the chance. As a French phrase goes, C'est la Vie!

REVIEW: Marvel's Jubilee



It's been a long while since my last review, and I've been itching to do more. My initial plan was to do a complete take on the Wave 18 and 21 figures however getting employed got in the way of things and messed up my free time (Though I'm not complaining, it's hard to live a bum's life broke. Having a job guarantees you more money for more plastics. Lol!) So without further a do, here's 1/3 of Marvel Universe's Wave 21 lineup, Jubilation Lee.

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.
