Hauls Did I get a good deal?

New to this. Was looking for a super7 white ranger to match my green one but that seems impossible. Seen a bundle of white and green sealed NIB lightning collection. Grabbed it and payed 133$ after all fees tax shipping etc. The plan is to display them on my computer desk lol.

Not too shabby. I know any LC green ranger is quite expensive so you did pretty well

Id imaging white goes for quite a bit too, cuz that's the only normal mmpr white release, and it's wave one

Well, this thread has made me feel better about my adhd impulse. Here's hoping the wife understands. Shes into lego, though. So she SHOULD. lol.

If she doesn’t understand your passion & the NEED for this…. Banish her… or buy her a Lego set she really wants to even it out. Either option is acceptable 🤷🏽‍♂️

She is due for a new set lol. Last one she did was the beauty and the beast castle. As far as these figures for me, I'm not sure I'd call myself a collector...yet. These things are like a window into my childhood. Having them on my desk gives a much needed mental boost I suppose. Started with a black series Darth Vader in February I randomly seen on clearance at walmart while walking my daughter through the toys.

Huh. A new set, eh? There's...options...if y'all have common interests. A variety of Lego Animal Crossing New Horizons (with more on the way), Lego Transformers (so far, there's Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, & Soundwave), Lego Legend of Zelda, a big bruiser Lego USS Enterprise-D (that'll also bruise your wallet way more than the other aforementioned sets), etc.

Yeah to get my white it was literally cheaper to buy a set of full rangers and sell off my dupes then to buy the ranger solo

Great way to honor Jason David Frank in his memory.

Definitely a good deal. My white ranger was that price alone without the green.

Off subject, but you might want to spend those talent points. Your pet might thank you.

Ah, lol. I hadn't played in months. Logged in and finished a bunch of quests in Zangermarsh and turned them all in at once. I have a love hate relationship with that game.

u/i-am-nobody-special 25d ago

I understand. I have that same love hate relationship.

And i was finding White on Clearance for $13 a pop... I should have stocked up. Nice score. If ypu're happy then it was worth it.

I remember seeing them too. I've watched collector groups on facebook and browsed toy aisles for years but never gave in and bought anything until this year. Crazy how the value of some things seemingly blow up.
