Marvel Select, Marvel Minimates and More on Sale for Luke’s Toy Store’s 4th Anniversary

Time really does fly – I remember when Luke started his store, yet still I can’t quite believe that was four years ago. To celebrate the anniversary, Luke is running a great sale. For example:

Marvel Select Storm Figure – $13 – the variant Storm is also on sale for $14, as well as a couple more Marvel Select figures
SDCC 2012 Exclusive Marvel Minimates Alpha Flight Series 1 Box Set and NYCC 2012 Exclusive Marvel Minimates Alpha Flight Series 2 Box Set – $9 each – pretty cool to be able to get these show exclusive Marvel Minimates sets for these prices, and there’s more listed
Rainbow Road Diorama – $13 – I’ve always liked Luke’s Minimates dioramas, and these are an upgrade – the Rainbow Road would go great with the Thor Stormbreaker Minimates Set, also on sale for just $9

There’s a bunch more items at Luke’s 4th Anniversary Sale, including stuff from the Walking Dead, Street Fighter vs. Tekken, Ghostbusters, Tron, and Battle Beasts. Check it out!

AFP’s Best of 2012 – Sandman’s Picks

Happy New Year everyone! Well, 2012 has come and gone, and like every year, Ron has asked us to pick our own Best of 2012!

I have to say, 2012 was a tough year for toy collecting for me.

The DC Universe 6-inch Wonder Woman Mez-Itz was the Mezco exclusive from San Diego Comic-Con that I was looking forward to the most.
