Snipers! Gah!

Feb 17, 2009 18:06

Ugh. Sniped at the last minute on Ebay yet again! I really wanted that Prince Adam figure too!

I don't know if it's because I'm trying to avoid studying for midterms, but I have been addicted to Ebay for the last several days. I'm spending FAR too much time there (though thankfully not money ( Read more... )

dinotopia, ebay, he-man, books

Sadly, the Sorceress was just a statue in the 2k2 line. But Prince Adam and Teela I was lucky and got in stores way back when. I haven't tried looking on eBay for 2k2 toys, I dont want to know how much they are going for.. So many I still need.

Yeah, I know she was a statue. But the fact that she exists in some form at all is a wonderful thing. :)

So lucky! I sadly wasn't interested in He-Man when this show was new in 2002 (though if I'd had cable, I definitely would have watched it!), so I didn't get any of the toys.

Let's just say that with shipping an Evil-Lyn I was watching went for over $30.

Good lord! Evil Lyn is one of the ones I wanted. I even hunted for her when she was released. I never got the Sorceress Staction figure, but I always wanted her. Her 2k2 design is so great

I know, right? Granted, she was boxed and all, but I still think that's steep for a six inch figure!

Although I hear that the 2k2 line was hampered by too many He-Man and Skeletor variants and not enough of the other characters, so maybe they're kind of rare?

I know you didn't forget and I know you've been super busy lately too!. :)

I think I really love eBay because of the really unique things you can find. Like animation cells or prototype toys.

Prince Brandon! It's gone a nice ring to it. (Don't worry, that plot bunny won't worm its way into the RP!)

well, we don't know anything about Brandon's family
and apparently he knew enough royal stuff to pass off as Sky for how long before Bloom blew his cover?

ry_sabir February 19 2009, 08:12:28 UTC

Hmm...I actually like Brandon as a normal person. It makes for a good dynamic between him and Stella.
Also, in the RP Sky and Riven (and Varan and Joshua) are already princes.
But damn if it wouldn't be fun. XD

And I always assumed his cover wasn't blown because in Magix, royalty doesn't necessarily act "like royalty." Except maybe Stella. :D

Oooohh, Winx Italians. Any good new ones out?

ry_sabir February 18 2009, 03:34:36 UTC

I'm mostly looking for older stuff. Since I got a Brandon, Stella, Sky, Bloom, and Flora, I'm after Tecna, Musa, and Layla now. I'm kind of anal about wanting full sets like that. XD

But they have to be the older, taller dolls. And in their Winx outfits.

But I think the newest Italian line right now is the "Winx on Ice" line. :)
