OMJF these things are amazeballs.
I used to eat them by the box (back when they came in boxes) these days I eat them by the pouchload.

Some mini DC/TMNT Thomas the Tank Engine trains are surprisingly great :lol:

The nephew's 'Galaxy Upgrade' Optimus Prime arrived so he'll love that come his birthday.

A guy on eBay does cheap Flexi magnets - almost my entire fridge is covered now in movies/TV/music ones, and the sides on my metal shelving unit are a shrine to just about everything else.

Orange Smarties mini eggs are the shizzle.

Got some cheap NI thrillers from Tesco's charity book bit and Lego Technic 42088 x2 for £4.50 (one for me, one to be stored for the Xmas kids appeal alongside some Transformers).

BTW, Tesco are doing a selection of Pops at 2 for a tenner. Older Deadpool like clown and Xmas, recent movie Mary Poppins, gold chromed Hulk, Rick and Morty, some Nightmare Before Christmas, Spiderverse Gwen...

Here you go

https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/nubatrekman6 ... pg=&_from=

If you message him through 'contact seller' then 'other' on an auction page it'll let you attach whatever images you want. The magnets can be easily scraped with your fingernails just so you know, so slide them around the fridge or wherever by pressing on them is my advice!

A large, diecast Batwing arrived with a fin like a crowbar... Seller's already on his second message after being given plenty of time to respond.

Sugar-free lemonade... as good as it sounds. Hello, mixer...

EDIT - I forgot how quickly 'sugar-free' would get vodka into my system *falls down really slowly*

Can't remember if I mentioned the Lego Marvel Mechs, but they're good (50p cheaper in B&M too ;) )

Transformers Siege Ape Face is... a bit of a dog's dinner but looks cool.

A company called Spin Master is doing a DC Comics line - the Batman figures are great!

Funko Pops - John Wick and Silver Surfer look amazing, plus I got a mint Punisher keyring.

Just treated myself to some Beats Powerbeats Pro earphones. I like earphones with clips to keep them in place when at the gym. My old wired ones were fine but the cable was a bit of a faff (I normally trailed the wire under my clothes when doing weights, but I needed the phone on the control panel of the treadmill to watch videos or track progress), plus my phone no longer has a 3.5mm jack.

I'll give them a test at the gym.

Four finger rolls for 25p, yay!

Doctor Doom Pop - box is in a right state, has dodgy eye paint. So they're getting a complaint...

Mortal Kombat Raiden Pop - Just about stands :roll: , but looks awesome.

Mega Gear ( :lol: ) Batman - Throwback Bats in a glider, looks awesome.

Only fcuking raging because I was so looking forward to it, an awesome MOTU steelbook arrived today only it's missing it's bloody soundtrack disc!

At least I found a sale for those Spin Master DC figures I mentioned before - I've ordered the Batmobile, another bike thing and some more figures.

Picked up a funky Legends Deadpool that was priced wrong and a 'Malibu Stacey' Wolverine (he's got a hat :lol: ). Oh, and a Decepticon symbol light is pure brilliance.

He's also got a red sword you know! (that's not a euphemism).

It's probably from a comic, but it actually looks great when you see it outside of bad promo shots.

ION, McFarlane's Doom Slayer rocks. I got the bronze one but I'm getting the green one once it's cheap.

Funko Pops of Mortal Kombat's Liu Kang, Scorpion and Sub Zero are great. Really hope we get the rest of the original game soon. Kano could be especially great, and there was previously an 'exclusive' Goro they could maybe deign to release properly.

EDIT - Oh yeah, the MOTU disc wasn't missing it's soundtrack; the listing was wrong, you've to play the soundtrack from the Blu Ray on your TV :roll:
