Been not in the posting mood, but best believe I am always in the #Bionicle mood!

All the playsets are finally mine and I got a ton of Kraata! Roughly 30 more to go. Race for the Mask of Life is a really unique set to cap that sub ollection off with.

And of course finished some contest MOCs.

Last haul group for last month is Pokemon and I do still love Sitting Cuties. Focused on my original Sun team but realized there's a few more I should've gotten for Ultra Sun.. maybe some day soon I'll fix that.
Then Annihilape sneaking in there as the only figure cuz he's awesome.

Got a few Star Wars Black Series figures last month like almost usual but even though I had been wanting a Barriss for a while, the Night Trooper is a fun idea to me, and the Temple Guard even is something unique when most releases feel the same .. I'm just not getting excited for them anymore.

September was a pretty fulfilling month for expanding my Bionicle shelves as well with some really cool builds like the Shadow Spawn and Archives Moles. Darkness gets a special shout out for being easy to get parts for, so so recommend trying to make him. And a cool blank Kanoka!

This month for Transformers I got real sucked into Blokees trying to get a Sunstorm. And yeah he's fabulous, glad to have another toy of him at long last lol. Now when can we get a proper transforming one...
Megatron totally stole the show though, he's a great figure.

Nearly forgot to cap off with the Bonkles. Did forget all about Turaga Nui, but NOW I am done with 2001 builds I want lol.
Melding Teridax always looked cool but man what a fiddly model in hand. Won't stand and parts constantly fall off.
A big influx of Kraata always exciting though!

Continuing my recap with a look at mixed action figures. I'm just loving the Attack On Titan Amazing Yamaguchi figures a lot, SHF Zodd is a great bulky beast of a figure, and my most exciting find turned into a bit of a dud as Skeledirge had terrible articulation (can't even move it's head, why?!).

Feeling better so here we go, my latest #Transformers haul!!
Hearts of Steel was still an amazing little capsule and Megatron is probably my favorite.
Cybertron Sideways was a toy I wish I had and the new one is fantastic.
Vortex has me really itching to finish Bruticus. A shame that's a year away.

Very behind on posting my monthly hauls because of some medical concerns, but trying to.

So let's look back at the start of the month - LEGO One Piece sets are real!! I got the whole assortment, even the M&T Gum Gum Fruit. Built the Merry right away (love it) but still need to time for the rest.

Found the tiniest kittens in a neighbor's car while walking the dog this evening and they are just the cutest things! 🥺

Ending like usual now with my #Bionicle builds.
I feel like I committed a LEGO sin haha - that Visorak's Gate was an unopened 20 year old set. And I applied the stickers! Truly diabolical.
Artakha has been a lengthy endeavor I'm glad to see complete. What an amazing build.

The miscellaneous haul section is brought to you by big meaty men!
Ganondorf is pretty great, no complaints there.
Blackbeard however is just kinda awkward, especially the soft good cape. Can't get it to sit well at all.
TURGLE! (I wish had elbows.)

What a crazy group of Transformers last month. Masterpiece, a combiner, a great RID remake, freaking Rescue Bots, video game minions, a half-assed Godzilla collab, and more! And yet really only 4 new molds in all of this and one is a tiny cassette lol.

Kicking off my July haul review with Pokemon because I'm surprised to have picked up literally any of them. Deoxys came in stock out of nowhere, the first 2025 wave of 2"-3" showed up on shelves after half a year delay, and Tyrantrum I admit I caved and overpaid for.. but he's just so dang cool.
August 2, 2025 at 1:45 AM
Watching the Lego Masters finale in a theater with one of the contestants lol. Let's goooo!

Next up for my haul recap is my forever fave, Bionicle! Getting serious about finishing the playsets and started building some of the unreleased polybag sets. Also finally wrapped up 2001 with the last Rahi combo!

Second up is Transformers, which was a good month for blue and red bots.
The first Hearts of Steel pack leaves me wanting more in the best way. I've wanted figures of these designs for a long time and these don't disappoint.
And Star Convoy is very impressive. Quite cool to see such a big Prime.

I didn't get many just action figures to kick off my June haul recap. Honestly the biggest surprise here was the return of Amiibo, closely followed by finding anything new at all at US retail for Jazwares Pokemon, which has become frustratingly rare. (Not that they stopped, they just don't here.)
July 1, 2025 at 12:34 PM
Definitely have major sag problems lol. The Kanohi one is way too big and is propped up by a bunch of small black nails. Krana needed a few too and Kraata I used some just to be safe. The grid one for Kanoka and Rhotuka is rock freaking solid and has no issues.

Also bonus look at the grid diskless.
June 16, 2025 at 11:52 PM
And here's a wide shot of all of the display frames.

I'm for sure putting at least 2 more up, one is just going through a slight redesign I decided on looking at it this weekend. Hopefully turnaround is faster this time lol. Just deciding where to fit them in now.

After many months of procrastinating, I finally out up over the weekend 3 more frames for my Bionicle collectibles. And I honestly couldn't be happier with how they're looking! That grid frame for the disks I'm particularly proud of.

I love The Lion King.
June 8, 2025 at 1:51 AM
Seriously I have no idea when I'll get the rest, but that I went from my first I got only a year ago to now HALF of them in a few months..! Crazy. And makes me so happy to see together. Maybe completing them is possible...
Now if I could get a lead on some of the Gray Plastic Krana-Kal...
June 1, 2025 at 2:20 AM
Wrapping up this month like normal with Bionicle, where I only finished a handful of not too exciting models. (Kid me would love the Matoran Nui though.)
And grabbed the 5 hole Kraahkan misprint I've been ignoring.
But most surprising still to me is another VMKK, what?!? Can't believe my luck.
