It's my first DSLR so there is a bit of a learning curve. But so far, it's been pretty simple to use.

Heads up on the blade figure, the torso tends to pop off and only one side of the rouzers are painted. Otherwise it is a nice figure to have posed on a motorcycle Transformer.

Cool. I just got my first DSLR a couple of months ago. That Canon was one I considered, but ultimately I went with the Nikon D3400. I still haven't quite mastered the lighting in my photo box for taking pictures of toys, but I've had a lot of fun with outdoor photography.
I look forward to seeing pics in the Cool Stuff threads.

My best friend sent me a late Christmas gift. Did not think I'd be getting this.

No pics on hand but I grabbed POTP Rodimus Prime. Love this figure. I consider it the most accurate to the animation robot figure (of Hot Rod) ever in a mainline (MAINLINE, see how I didn't say Masterpiece) and it's fun as hell. My son loves it too.

A little pick-me-up for myself

I ordered this SHF Praetorian Guard the week before the movie came out, and it was only $32 shipped. Just arrived yesterday.

I wish I had ordered the other two versions and Kylo Ren before the film came out, too, because they've all gone up in price $15-$25 since then.

Dude, same. I only got one guard (heavy blade) because I wanted BB-8 and doubted they'd actually matter in the film. But then they actually ended up being really cool and involved in one of my favorite scenes so now I wish I had them all haha.

Actually had the whip staff one pre-ordered too before realizing I could get Rey on her own. Shouldn't have cancelled that one heh.

Bandai Destroyah came today. I'm liking it a lot. I know people have complained it's not big enough but I think the long tail and wide wingspread makes up for it. I'd guess the wingspread to be about 10 inches.

(stock photo but mine looks exactly the same)

DESOTROYAH!

Such a great monster design, it really is one of Godzilla's most menacing-looking foes.
