Fellow customizer, and good friend John Mallamas (AKA Jin Saotome) has several auctions up right now that are, as the title implies, a customizer’s dream. About once a year he auctions off several lots of random action figure fodder, and it’s that time right now. All of the lots are priority medium flat rate boxes filled to bursting with random pieces. There’s three separate lots with random fodder, one specifically for capes and coats, and even a Transformers fodder lot! Many of the auctions end later today, so if you’re interested at all in getting some fodder goodness, just CLICK HERE or click each photo below to take you to the corresponding auction. I hope this helps out some customizers out there!

The NECA Predator 2 Trophy Wall is Incredible!
I recently picked up the NECA Predator 2 Trophy Wall display and it is truly amazing. I haven’t had the time to do a real review, but I couldn’t resist taking this awesome photo and showing it off. I used some gels over my lights to get the red glowing effect that the inside of the Predator ship had at the end of Predator 2. If you’re a fan of the NECA Predator figures, then you need this display piece in your collection. If you’re wary of getting it because you don’t have any of the trophy skulls to adorn your trophy wall, then fret not because NECA has you covered. They have a set of all the trophy skulls in one pack that they’re selling on their eBay store right now. Just click the links below to get a set of the trophy skulls and the trophy wall to really spice up your NECA Predator collection!

EBay Find – Obitsu Doll Stand, Perfect For Action Figures!
I thought I would share this for all my fellow action figure enthusiasts out there. If you’re in need of some action figure stands, these are the best I’ve ever used. They pop up sometimes on eBay, and they’re great. They’re called Obitsu doll stands, and they’re from China. They’re clear, multi-jointed, and have two different sized clips to accommodate several different sized action figures. They’re cheap too.
I have a bunch that I’ve bought over the years, and they’re perfect for flying characters, or just making a scene more action packed. If you have Marvel Legends, DC Universe Classics, or even Japanese imports like Figma, Figuarts, or Revoltech, then the Obitsu stands really are perfect.
Out of all the different figure stands that have been made over the years, the Obitsu stands are hands down my favorite. The seller seems to have a bunch in stock right now too, so if you need several, then you’re in luck! I hope this helps out anyone in need of some awesome action figure stands. To buy the Obitsu stands, just CLICK HERE or the photo below.
Star Wars the Black Series 6″ Figures Back in Stock on Amazon!
These figures are really hard to find right now, so if you do see them and you want them then get them! For those having no luck finding them in stores, or those who just don’t feel like wasting gas hunting, Amazon has you covered. It’s been a few weeks, but the Star Wars the Black Series 6″ figures are finally back in stock on Amazon! They’re all retail price, $19.99, and all eligible for free shipping. Yes, even the Sandtrooper is back at just $19.99. I’ve seen those figures go for the most on the aftermarket, due to their army building potential. Amazon says that figure will be in stock on August 19th, just a few days away, so place the order now and make sure you get them before they sell out.
I will have detailed reviews up fairly soon, but I can attest that these figures are incredible. I’ve always loved Star Wars, but never got into the figures, because there were frankly too many and at such a small scale with limited articulation. But 6″ super poseable and detailed figures? Heck yes I’m all in for that. And if you’re a Star Wars fan, then you’ll love these. So again, if you want the Star Wars the Black Series figures, then get them while they last. Just CLICK HERE or the individual pictures below to get them!

I hope this helps out all those out there wanting to complete their Iron Monger, or just add to their Iron Man figure collection.
