Properly of us, I’ve gone and accomplished it. I’ve purchased the dumbest motion determine ever. And I frickin adore it!
Over the previous few years I’ve handed on some actually rad motion figures on clearance and even full value, just like the Grossery Gang Time Travelling Jack-O-Lantern dude for $4 at Toys R Us. Sticking to my classic weapons, you recognize? Extra lately I noticed it doesn’t matter when it’s from, if it makes you cheerful and scratches a nostalgic itch, that’s okay. I received the children some MOTU Origins, then I received myself some…however after I noticed this ridiculous chunk of plastic at TRU at some point I used to be immediately transported to childhood. Who’s it?
He’s known as Grim, and got here packed in with a Gravedigger monster truck, ala Monster Jam. I handed on the noticed set a couple of instances, I wasn’t going to purchase a monster truck toy. I’m nonetheless not, by the way in which. I don’t care if it’s TMNT, Mario and even Battlecat, not gonna occur. I saved checking on the set bi-weekly, whereas seeking to see if the flocked Panthor was ever going to go on sale.
Once I lastly determined it was time to buy him one fateful Sunday, Toys R Us was closed! Completely! The TRU the place we lived lapsed their lease and determined to not discover a new location. It wasn’t meant to be.
You realize me although, all the time at that bag wall poking Glad Meal toys out of the way in which searching for 5 POA treasure. And I discovered it! Simply not the classic kind. I discovered the Grim determine I wished, not a monster truck in sight. 5 factors of articulation and classic 90s colors! Good. He was additionally in a bag with a Ninja Turtle and Willie DeWitt from Bucky O’Hare so it was a triple win that day.
The lesson discovered is endurance, the thrift gods have a humorous means of placing one thing you gave up on proper in entrance of you. Even when it’s the dumbest factor ever.
