ryanreactsI haven't ordered any yet, but I am researching prices for the other figures in the Strange Tales slash Black Heart BAF slash Fuck Yeah Bloodstorm line. Right now Daimon, Brother Voodoo, and Lilith are perfectly reasonable; Dracula and Weapon of Vengeance (who is technically not part of the BAF, but I still want him) are a little too expensive; and for some ungodly reason Moon Knight is $60.
Other than those, I think my next Marvel action figure will be . . . oh snap, I honestly don't know! Um. I have countless examples saved in more than one Amazon list. But, whomst am I most likely to spend money on NEXT? Hmmm, maybe Comic Book Beast or another Storm or ? from 97.
If I had to rank my current Dream Besties from favorite to least favorite, it would go: Ken, Skater Brooklyn, Festival Looks Malibu, Renee, Teresa.
Yes, Ken is my favorite Dream Bestie. He always will be, unless they eventually release another Ken and I somehow like him even more.
When Teresa gets her new outfit, she will probably take Renee's spot.
Skater Malibu still has not shipped, but when she arrives I might like her even more than Festival Looks? Although obviously they are the same character, meaning they will share clothes and everything else, so it really comes down to a question of whose hair do I like better - in which case, yeah, obviously Skater!
When Zia arrives, she will be firmly tied with Skater Brooklyn for my second favorite doll in the entire life (so far). Yes, I love Skater Brooklyn THAT much. She is tied with Zia.
Typing that out made me want to ramble about the dolls more, and also kind of actually start thinking about their characters beyond "they're all teenage witches and none of them are straight."
So that's two more Dream Besties posts, one of which I'm somewhat tempted to start right away . . .
