Way to (not incorrectly) emasculate me, Delta
TDF holding a skinny can of white wine. The label says “Une Femme.” He is presumably on an airplane

Also here's a photo of the rest of the parts he has. His brother has all of the bits to make the Zentraedi Battlepod, though, so those aren't in there.

@necroticdoctor.bsky.social From Luke: "there's a bunch of different ways this thing could be configured but this seems closest to the real shock trooper's proportions. There might have been a torso piece in the set that was closer to the real one but I'm not sure"
Photo of a weird snap together toy that strongly resembles an Invid Shocktrooper

The new Super7 Microtron is fucking great.

I love how the promo photos encourage you to use it as a chest accessory, but there's a 5mm port that allows you to recreate the original production PP Drill, as well. Excellent work, designers.
Photo of Super7 Micronauts action figures (2025). Microtron shows off his chest drill while Force Commander looks on, reasonably pleased. Oh no, it's actually a PP Drill! Avert your eyes, Force Commander!

Nobel (Noble) Gundam from 2002
Packaged Gundam action figure. It’s basically Swedish Sailor Moon in giant robot form. Pretty cool tbh. Back of the packaging showing the other toys you can buy

I have not bought an SH Figuarts in many years (though I do have Char on preorder) but I probably have to get these. Maybe my $200 or whatever will convince Bandai to make Tik-Tok, the Royal Army of Oz
it's an action figure of Elphaba from Wicked It's an action figure of Glinda from Wicked

“A gem of that size answers all my questions.”
A photo of GI Joe action figures. In a dark swampy landscape, Pythona (Super7, 2025) presents a huge, sparkling gem to Zartan (1993).

Snork Eyes (2025)
Toy photo. It’s Snake Eyes (Super7 Sunbow cartoon version) flying a Cobra Flight Pod in front of the Statue of Liberty. There is also a plume of smoke. Pretty cool shit if I do say so myself

They do look pretty good together

lil bday haul. Duke was $6.29! I guess it was my destiny to find him since I got the Tiger Fish beforehand.
Photo of some toys. GI Joe Downtown, Super Trooper, Tiger Force Duke, and the Tiger Fish. A knockoff set of Lego space accessories. Two little Lego Animal Crossing sets. A little wind up glow in the dark eyeball.

Togemon is the Champion
It’s Togemon, a digital monster from Digimon. They are a cactus creature wearing boxing gloves with a little tuft of hair on the top of their head. They’re the best. Just trust me on that one.

Got this baddie in the mail today
Toy photo. It’s a “Bioroid Invid Fighter” from Robotech. This one is the 11994 Exosquad release. It is a big red robot holding a weird gun.

1994 Carcass. I reviewed him recently. You can still read it any time you want to. It's free.
A photo of GI Joe toys. A barren alien planet scene. Carcass is holding a missile launcher and has shot down a Cobra Invader (1993), which is on fire. Its pilot, Blackstar (1994), is trying to crawl away from his downed vehicle and escape from Carcass.
