Bridge Direct Hobbit Collection - 3-3/4 inch

Right now, this is my whole Bridge Direct Hobbit collection. I am only missing Thranduil (that comes in a ridiculous 5 pack which contains four figures I already have) and Invisible Bilbo. I purchased Bilbo from a seller in Costa Rica but customs still can't ship it due to Covid restrictions.

Unpackaged UK Azog and Radaghast from Bridge Direct

From a post way back in October, I managed to track down the UK release of Azog and Radaghast figures from the Hobbit. Here are the unpackaged photos along with the current collection I have. My Invisible Bilbo is still stuck in Costa Rica (they can't mail anything here), and I haven't pulled the trigger on the 5-pack that includes Thandril, because that would mean I would have another copy of Fili, Kili, Legolas, and Tauriel...which was one of the problems that killed the line in the first place.

GI Joe Commemorative Collection 1964-1994

Don't remember these when they came out. Probably because I was starting my first job out of college - being a combat engineer in the army. When I saw these, I wanted to make sure they were a part of my Year of Joe ensemble. By luck, Toybox happened to have some handy.  Love these things. Like how they match up with their Real American Hero brothers and sisters in terms of design, but staying true to their original 12 inch counterparts. Well played Hasbro.

GI Joe Classified - Baroness and COIL

OK - I am finally posting unpackaged photos of the hard to find GI Joe Classified Series Baroness and COIL motorcycle. I have never seen these in the wild, given the absurdedness of the Target Cobra Island exclusives. Thanks to a fellow collector who snagged this for me.

Awesome figure. One of the best so far. I expect a blue colored version sometime in the future.

The motorcycle is OK. I suppose it can fit a variety of other toy lines - Marvel Legends, or put some Red Sith Troopers on it from The Rise of Skywalker. Hmmmmm.

Bespin Freeze Chamber - Adventure People Mashup

 I did this a few weeks ago with the vintage Kenner Death Star, but what would the new vintage style Kenner Bespin Freeze Chamber look like with a bunch of X-Ray people?
