2007: The Year in Haulage

Happy New Year! I’m working on a very big review of the first wave of DC Universe Classics figures, but in the meantime here’s a quick post to tide you over.

Inspired by Googum, I’ve decided to try and post a list of all the toys I bought or received in 2007. I can’t go into quite as much detail–I don’t have dates and I certainly don’t have receipts (and part of me doesn’t want to know how much I spent). This is mostly from memory, so there are undoubtedly a few holes–I’ll update as I remember things.

Looking it over, it’s pretty clear I became a fan of (read: obsessed with) DC Superheroes.

Very cheap Nightmare Before Christmas toys…

Back when Santa Jack was first released, I bought one. Its right leg broke out of the package, so I returned it to the comic shop and got a replacement–whose right leg broke out of the package.

I hate gluing figures, so I just chalked it up to bad luck and gave the figure away for customizing scrap. But this year, I found myself wanting another SJ and went looking for him online.

To my surprise, I discovered him for sale at the incredibly cheap price of $3.25 at Sci-Fi Genre. So for a total of $12, including shipping–the price of one of these figures at retail–I picked up both the first and second versions of Santa Jack. If you’ve been holding off on the NBX figures, check out the sale at SFG.
