So, it looks like I've started collecting toys now. I started off small, a few Godzillas and assorted other kaiju here, a few DC Direct figures there... And, then, boom, I discover DC Minimates and suddenly *must have them all*, and then I'm tracking down all sorts of DC Direct toys (just got the 52 Booster Gold figure yesterday, finally. Been looking for one for months.) And now, today, I was in the mall and wandered into Hot Topic and found the Futurama toys. They had Frye and Dr. Zoidberg. I only grabbed Zoidberg today, but I know now that I must get the whole set. Why? Because the series has a "build a figure" thing with a different part packaged with each figure. So, if I get all six, I can build the Robot Devil. It's sad how much I want a Robot Devil.

So, I've got myself a new geeky hobby. I think I'll start posting pictures soon.


In other news, I've been planning to do a project involving mutilated little green plastic army men for ages now, and I figured I'd get started on that soon, so I've been trying to find some of those little guys so I can mutilate/mutate them. We have none at Wal-Mart. Typical. Today I went to Toys R' Us, and all they had was a huge bucket (like, way too big to take on the bus) that only had 100 pieces, including tanks and terrain and crap. I do not need vehicles or terrain. I can make my own terrain. All I want are a few cheapo bags of crappy little plastic soldiers. Y'know, the kind that you used to be able to find anywhere. Argh. I may have to look around online for the damned things.
