When I win the lottery, I’ll buy every action figure I want. For now, these ones were Left on the Shelves.
In this edition, more Hasbro Iron Man 2 figures, Jazwares Sonic the Hedgehog, and Mattel The Dark Knight Harvey Dent.
Hasbro Iron Man 2
If you haven’t seen the lastest trailers and clips from Iron Man, you won’t understand why they call the Mark V armor the “suitcase armor” – and while it’s awesome on the big screen, I just couldn’t bring myself to buy another 3.75-inch Iron Man while I still have a pile of unopened Iron Men on the shelves at home.
Iron Starch and the Iron Man and War Machine versions of the Mighty Muggs were a little harder to resist, because cute and heavy armor are such a potent combination.
Jazwares Sonic the Hedgehog
Despite some awesome pics in Sandman’s pictorial review of the 3-inch scaled Sonic toys, since I haven’t played any games in the Sonic franchise, it was easy to leave these on the shelves.
Mattel The Dark Knight Harvey Dent
In a recent Ask Matty Q&A, Toy Guru said the status for the last series of The Dark Knight Movie Masters was “up in the air.” Well, if you were in doubt, these have definitely hit shelves at TRU, where the series is exclusive. Harvey here was the lone remnant of whatever they had at this particular store As compelling as seeing one figure from a series left on the shelves, I decided to leave it behind. But start checking out your TRUs for more of this series!
I stopped at my local TRU on the way to work yesterday and to my surprise they had a Jail cell Joker. I looked through the bunch of first release Jokers and found Harvey and Survival Suit Bruce. I already had Bruce from MattyCollector, so I left him on the peg. But I’m sure glad I found Harvey & JC Joker. At $12.99 each, I saved some cash over buying them from Matty!
