Count the medals, one two and... Leito?
(the first thing I'm gonna do when I get my Neo Decadriver is put the Leito card in it) Very happy to finally have this set arrive! After my first little venture into medals with the EX set that had Justice, I kinda fell in love with these things. So it's pretty nice of them to make a set that has all the new gen heroes I've seen!

Tried out Jungle for the first time and scored a sealed SS Beast for just over $100 shipped which I'll gladly take.

Welcome to the photographic proof of my Fiscally-Questionable February!
Found some folks selling these GuriHiru-designed Marvel figurines, so I picked up Series 1 and 2. Orange Cassidy from AEW and a Marvel Legends Wolverine figure. I'm loving watching AEW these days, but I feel like Orange Cassidy is the only figure I really need to own. Don't see myself collecting the line. The Wolverine... I don't really get Marvel Legends to collect, but I'm picking and choosing some fun designs. Really loved HoX/PoX (House of X/Powers of X), so this suit is exactly what I want for a Wolverine figure. He'll go with my 90s Armored Daredevil and Silver Centurion Iron Man. Pretty dangerous to find out how much Japanese-exclusive GuriHiru stuff Mandarake has! Grabbed the three sketchbooks they had in stock, along with a set of five Gwenpool posters (not pictured, still need to get frames). Unopened robots. Quintesson Judge, tiny Optimus, and an Arcee figure I'm probably going to transform once, hate the experience, and then put on a shelf. Opened robots! MMC's Chromedome and Rewind (Domey is an all-star design, Rewind is fun for an accessory), Earthrise Megatron (fun transformation), and MMC's Helex of the DJD (entertainingly chunky transformation into Helex But He's Laying On His Back). Unopened craft projects. SO-DO Den-O 1, which I'm waiting to be a little deeper into the show to work on; SO-DO Gaim 2, which I've only done Kachidoki Arms and forgot to take a picture of; and I've Turned Black Kuuga, who I'll probably work on in March. Unopened Figuarts. Accel, Meteor, and Saber. Accel and Meteor I'm spacing out a little, where they'll get opened over the next week. I like spending time with each figure. Saber I'm spacing out a lot, since I don't open figures until I watch shows and I ain't getting around to Saber until late-2022. Still, I grabbed him while he was cheap. February's Figuarts. I went a little crazy! Nothing in here was that expensive, though. Genm Dangerous Zombie Level X+0 (great design, not happy with how much the clavicle pieces pop off), Poppy (perfect, so shiny and beautiful), Lazer Turbo Level 0 (my absolute favorite Figuart, I end up staring at it daily), Chaser (good presence, suit colors are a little dull in person), Mach (slick suit, big personality), Fourze (glad to have him, but my copy has more yellowing than I'd've expected), Baron (wasn't a huge fan of that suit onscreen but really like it as a figure), and Snipe Level 2 (that fluorescence! Love it!). The daytime lighting isn't super great, but here are a couple photos of my current Figuarts collection. It's coming along!

A wise man once said “Whenever you feel guilty about buying an expensive toy, remind yourself you could’ve spent that money on heroin instead. So in a way, you’re actually spending your money responsibly”.

Thanks! I love those suits so much. When I started getting Secondaries, the Ghost boys were the first ones I went for. Weirdly, Necrom's not even my favorite, despite how much I loved that character? I think the Specter suit pops the most, with that metallic blue and glossy black.

I was also a Mains Only collector until recently, so I'm sorry if this is too tempting! I won't even mention how enjoyable expanding my collection has been over the last few months! I've definitely been prioritizing Quantity over Rarity, as far as my purchases have gone. (I think that Meteor was like $12?) I'd much rather get 3 $50 figures than one $150 figure, at least for right now. Getting some of those high-ticket figs (just picked up an Agito off of Mandarake...), I try to do it infrequently? I don't know. It feels less irresponsible to look at a group of moderately-priced figures than it does to look at a couple wallet-melting ones?
