A whole month of going to walmart and not buying anything, always eyeing the pokemon and mario movie figures but resisting them

in the current economy, retail is almost like a museum ... what was the most legit Pokemon figure at Walmart?

So many, my self control is pretty poor. I already have the NECA howling figure which is great, but I feel an unnatural urge to get one of these too.

>mario movie figures but resisting them
Just recently added movie Yoshi to my mostly WoN collection. Was tempted to get Bowser Jr. in the clown car but so far I've refrained on the basis that they fucked up his scaling and that it would send me down the rabbit hole of having to get the not so important characters (Daisy, Waluigi, Birdo, etc.)

He seems about right going by the movie.

I have the 1/10, 1/12 and the new 1/24 on the way. So it was a difficult call.

Things seem pretty standard really, I guess people cut back on easter candy but otherwise it's business as usual as far store traffic goes. People still buy tires and get oil changes.

To answer op I finally splurged at got the new scareglow and skeletor, rather wish I left skelly behind as it isn't an origins figure, and I grabbed an armorsaurs figure. So like $50 blown when I normally wouldn't have bought anything since the store I work at doesn't do high volume on toys.

It's not pricey, per se, I just need a bunch of it. I picked up some miniatures from Crapazom for $9 only to discover they were slightly cheaper on Ali.

But I really want stuff that doesn't look generic and won't be populating every other fucker's mad scientist dioramas, like this shit from Diamond Select.

I know someone who has these weird hatred for creating and selling on Mercari or eBay (or even Facebook and the little fucker is actually very active posting conspiracies on the cesspit) so every few months, I send him a brand new figure MINT ON CARD figure that comes with no accessories in a box with another box inside, with a SAS pirate ship label, and he fills it up with the "junk" - as he puts it - and send it back to me. So one box ago, I got these vials.

But these are the same as Beast and Antman's lab equipment. So while I am happy to have them for the two way postage and a proportionate price of a $25 ML, it's not very unique from what all you other fuckers.

tl;dr we all have our autistic crosses to bear

as of now there’s about $1000 worth of figures I am “refraining from”

Well if we're doing that, there's a $2.2M house that has a subterranean basement underneath a pool, the pool has a glass bottom. I would turn one section into a bathroom, that's underneath part of the swimming pool but gas privacy, an. The rest I would convert into a toy display area and workspace addition, with built-in ventilation, built-in storage, and an adjacent toy photography and video making studio.

The upstairs would be partioned and partially rented out for income.

BigBoysToys' giant vinyl Polly from Samurai Pizza Cats. I already have Speedy, but I'm wary to buy a second one given their price. It does look like they're going to make Guido, too.

Sounds like a bit of a death trap, but I guess you could swim your way out.

bankruptcy, I do declare.

I waited 3 years to buy Newage 3p dinobots but I keep procrastinating because I dont know if I can justify it.

Pretty much any line import line that's now 10000 yen /100cad for a single figure too.

I've been waiting for Jada to make Protoman and more of the Scooby Gang before I collect them and it feels like its taking forever.
