good thing, bad thing

\o/ Have y'all seen the Avengers Lego minifigs? ::dies::

/o\ Have y'all seen the PRICE of the Avengers Lego minifigs? ::dies again, and not in the fun, swoony way, sigh::

\o/ I mentioned it yesterday, but it bears repeating: I did not open my eyes before sun-up this morning.

/o\ We went straight from winter to mosquito weather, which I forgot until I'd already accumulated 10 bites while sitting out on my deck and reading last night. So much for wearing anything above ankle-length to the office for the rest of the week.

\o/ While I was cruising eBay and whimpering over the price of the blasted Avengers minifigs (can't buy just the figures retail, they only come included with play-sets, which are cute, but not exactly what I'm looking for, see also: SPENDY, EVEN MORE), I did unexpectedly find a Batman minifig magnet set with the exact characters that I used to have but have been lost over the years, AND it was not outrageously priced, so I have my complete set of (fairly useless, but freaking awesome aesthetically) refrigerator magnets back.

And I will end on a high. :D

Re: Lego minifigures - where is Loki, dammit? (also: I can see my children pestering me for them...)

Oh, there is a Loki! Drat, I was trying to find a picture of just the minifigs & didn't stop & count! No Fury or Coulson, but definitely a Loki (with the glow stick of doom, even.)

We don't even pretend these are for the kids any more, sigh

Heh - I wouldn't try smuggling Lego into the house past the children - it would be bound to FAIL.

They just roll their eyes at me now.

oh how cool! Reminds me of all my NSYNC swag I still have.

I have to admit, though, when I read "minfigs" I thought you meant fruit! ha!

[topaz119.livejournal.com]

The swag is always important, right?

btw, maybe not as cool as Legos, but if you search for "Avengers Chibis" they're pretty cute.

(ha, I can't spell!)

omg, they are ADORABLE. And they have one for Agent Coulson! I will have to stop at Target on the way to the office in the morning.

I know! I haven't even seen the movie and I want them! =D I'm a sucker for this sort of thing.

I may buy some for my BiL for his birthday. He's a comic book freak.
