Newb Just starting and the weeks Haul

Twisted Metal · 11-19-2007, 12:00 PM

Hey Guys,

Great board and I am thrilled to be a member. I just started collection S6 last week. Been doing the 25th Anniv. guys and just kept seeing these so I finally bought one. Now I am hooked! I did some serious hunting over the last week and below is what I have been able to find so far. I will try to post some pics tonight. Are there any other guys I really need to keep an eye out for? Thanks!

Not bad for a weekend hunt.What stores did you find them at? I would love to find a HeavyDuty and spirit.

Mostly Walmart and Target. I found some of the harder to find ones at some out of the way Kmart's and KB Toys.

Looks like you went all out man!

I saw a Torpedo at K-mart last night (It's the first sigma 6 figure that's really made me think about starting to collect these things

) Still haven't yet though

I wasn't all that excited about them at first either. I was and still am a die hard 3 3/4" guy, but after I got the first one and really got to check it out these are REALLY cool. The sculpts are really nice and the accessories ROCK! I have only opened the Sigma Strike Duke and am leaving the rest unopened right now, but I can't help think that in the larger scale these would totally rule being out of the package on display. We'll see how long I can hold out for! :-)

Ha, ha...Same with me. You got a nice haul. Wish I could have found some of those.

Same story with me. Just went out to see what I could find, and found Shipwreck. Very cool figure. I like the face sculpt and the monkey companion.

Really dig that tatoos.

But... He can't hold his knife or his sword. His hands are way to big to hold the grips. Kind of disappointing in that respect. Obviously he was given someone else's gun's as an afterthought.

Tomorrow, I can get a few more, and have seen Adventure crew Stormshadow, Crimeboss Destro (will probably snag him), Dojo, and Commando Snake-eyes (tough choice), and an Iron Grenadier. But, since I started dabbling so late, the selection is tiny.

Not bad for a start, I recommend finding yourself an old Bravestar Fort Kerium Playset for your Sigma figures, it works great as a H.Q. Have you checked Tuesday Morning stores for Sigma Six toys, I only ask because the ones near me have afew figures (Duke on attack Quad, and Ninja Showdown).

Here are some pics of the collection so far.....
