At the start of this post, that title was meant to reflect my first major scam on eBay. Someone had bought an extremely expensive sealed minifig from me. For some reason, they opened it, even though you can get much cheaper ones loose. And, of course, there was damage to it. Even the way they messaged me, I was like, here we go, fishing for a refund. Turns out the buyer was super-nice, a minifig reseller themself, and just wanted to make sure it wasn’t a reseal. I was the original owner/acquirer, so I knew that wasn’t the case. They swapped the damaged piece themselves and even after I offered them a full return or a partial refund, they refused, stating it couldn’t have been my fault. Let me tell you, considering all of the negative in our community nowadays, this really restored my faith in collectors and, in a small part, humanity. So, now that title gets to reflect my joy for my New York Knicks, 2025-2026 NBA Champions!
So much good stuff this time around. Hasbro Fanstreams continue to be amazing, including never-before-seen product for once. How about those Classified Fatal Fluffies? Star Wars didn’t disappoint either, at least for me, with those Remnant Snowtroopers. While I might already have them, the Deluxe Insecticon 3-Pack is simply beautiful. MOTU absolutely kills it with their latest Origins 200x wave. Including not only my favorite Evil Warrior, Trap Jaw, but also focus characters from my childhood, Sy-Klone and Man-E-Faces.
