From receiving gifts in the mail to exploring your local toy stores and comic shops, it seems like you've been able to add some great new pieces to your collection.
It's always fun to receive gifts in the mail, and the Vamp you received from Starscream2 sounds like a great addition to your collection. Then, the Torch/Bazooka and Electric Eel/Shipwreck two packs that arrived from Sam Reese were another great find. It's always exciting to add new figures to your collection, especially when they come in a two-pack like these ones.
Visiting TRU can be a hit or miss, but it sounds like you lucked out and were able to find some great items despite the store being mostly cleared out. The Night Ops Hummer and SAW Viper both sound like cool additions to your collection, and it's always nice to get a free figure with your purchase.
But the real highlight of your shopping spree seems to be when you were able to finally pay off your TERRORDROME at the comic shop. It's exciting to have a complete set with only one broken hinge, and buying Ripper and Zandar to complete your DreadNok collection was a great decision.
It's clear that you're having a blast with your new purchases, and it's always fun to play and display your figures. Hopefully, your trip to TRU today will yield even more great finds for your collection. Enjoy!
