I had a random day off today and wound up in BabiesRus and TRU. I was with my wife and 15 month old son so I figured no figyas for sure lol. We got there right as they opened at 10 and me and Joey hit the figya isle. Gotta teach um young the way to hunt 😂. I see Sasha on the front of the pegs as soon as we turn the corner. I went nuts. I'm 33yrs old w my baby and marking out in the isle. Then we dig and I find one Braun way in the back. No New Day 3 pack unfortunately. My wife finds us and actually lets me get them! She said yes to 2 figyas. Even better, I price matched them to Lex on Amazon for $8.00 each! They had the rest of the Elite 44 on the shelves w plenty of BigE but nothing else new. I haven't gotten a figya in about a year. Prob since last years RSC Black Friday deal. I spent $400 when my son was 1 month old and my wife went nuts. She's right. Can't be spending money like that anymore on toys for me. This past summer I sold off all my MOC stuff that was worth anything. I've been collecting the line since day one. I made about $1000. Got rid of some tough stuff though. Had to share this w my figya fam. FINALLY JOE ROC HAS COME BACK TO COLLECTING. #heelwifefacetun

Nice. Im still looking for Brauns elite. I waited because I figured the outdated attire wouldnt move as fast, I was wrong. Ive seen e44 in 2 or 3 stores and everyone but Braun. Saw the basic, but need the mask for my Wyatt display.

Just buy figyas for your son now. That's how I justify the buying at my house

You can take a man out of action figure collecting... you can't take action figure collecting out of a man.

I've been taking little mini breaks all this year and all last. The only thing that has come from that is the hassle of trying to find the things I missed. Secondary market sucks. So I don't think 2017 is the year of "taking a break" especially when there is way too much good stuff front loading this year! Welcome back!
