My Newest Arrival!

[Super]

Wow...well done PJ and you did a wonderful job with my Lions 👍

Thank You Super, the Lions did absolutely amazing this year and I hope they can finally get to and win a Super Bowl. I'd love to see it happen!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello BPT! As promised, I had a post that I'd eventually do after I had posted my NFL drawings. And the item that I have to post is one I've looked for for longer than Charlie in "Play Time", and now own it BNiB:
-----------------------------------

Brand New Flora from HiT Toys in 2008! (New Friends Release)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Price: $125.00
Shipping: $11.85
Total: $136.85
Location: Clover, South Carolina, USA
----------------------------------------------
With this insane addition in the collection now, I have 4 New Friends releases NiB (Whiff, Proteus, Hank, & Flora) and now 79 boxed items. Tune in to see which one will be #80, and I will guarantee it will be a great one like Rheneas!

[Super]

Wow...she is beautiful!

Hey BPT, I haven't really posted in a bit, and it's really just because I've not really gotten any new things since Flora, but I do have some things to post, things like drawings, and just general collection progress I've noticed.
------------------------------------------------
First, I have a drawing of another NFL team, and they fly to the road to victory:

The Philadelphia Eagles! The last NFC logo I'd do before moving on to the AFC. Personally, I think I did pretty good apart from a few inaccuracies.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second, I have taken a picture of every Trucks and Track pack I own from both Fisher-Price and HiT Toys, I have 17 of 21 of the total amount produced by both companies:

I do know of the ones I'm missing, and they are:
HiT Toys:
- Sodor Power Plant
- Mixed Freight Cars
- Carriages and Coaches
F-P:
- Station Repair Cars
If there's anyone here who has even one of these NiB, let me know, I'd be happy to make a deal with you when I have the time and money to do so.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So there you have it, a general update of stuff I've been doing since I've been gone, and I have also achieved straight A's again. With pretty high grades this time! Wish me luck on my 4th term, this is the last one I gotta get through!

[Super]

You are such a talented artist PJ but I am curious...what are the wood pieces for at the top of the Eagles Logo?

BPT! We did it!! We have reached:
80 Boxed Items!!!
This is just insane to me that I've even reached THIS many items in the collection from TOMY/Plarail, HiT, and F-P.
It only took about 2 & 1/2 years, but here we are! It's crazy to me that I've even reached this point.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the 80th boxed item that has reached the collection is...

TrackMaster Sir Handel from HiT Toys in 2007! (Toys R Us Version)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Price: $59.49
Shipping: $10.78
Total: $70.27
Location: Buford, Georgia, USA
--------------------------------------
Here it is! #80! And what makes this even more incredible is that this is actually the first Toys R Us exclusive item I have in the collection as of now. And Sir Handel is one of, if not my most desired Toys R Us maybe next to Rocky. And I just love this pack too much, the red coaches, Sir Handel just looking amazing with those impossible-to-keep-in-good-condition eyebrows, and just the fact that I basically found this for an actually fair price in 2024!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well this will be it for now BPT, I can't wait to see what #81 will be! I just know it's gonna be exciting once I get it! Not as exciting as this though, but I'll just have to wait and see what it is. Stay tuned for it though! (and I promise that it won't take a whole month for it to come here this time lol)

[Super]

Wow, your collection has become massive PJ...well done 👍

It is quite big Super, and now only 20 items to go till the big 100! Until now, that is, because now we've got 19 to go!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello BPT! Well, what do you know? It didn't take a whole month to post again! And this time, I have another BNiB item to share today, and it's of a character I've never had boxed before, nor have I ever owned him in TrackMaster 1 before, until today!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the NiB Character we have today is...

Harvey the Maroon Crane Engine from Fisher-Price in 2010!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Price: $38.95
Shipping: Free!
Total: $38.95
Location: Wausau, Wisconsin, USA
------------------------------------------
Well this is pretty crazy, I got $40 for my straight A's on my report card for the 3rd term, and this just so happened to pop up when I got the money, and I bought it immediately given it was in perfect condition and it was just that cheap for something pretty uncommon. And it's been a while since I've had an F-P item to share, let alone a BNiB one. And this time that drought has ended! I also will have another character to show in a few days, it's another 2010 item but its used in Brand New condition and it's a Greatest Moments pack I got when I was like 4, and that original model has been through the ringer so I said it was time for a new one.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stay tuned for the reveal on Monday or Tuesday probably, this one was also quite inexpensive too, so that's another bonus. But you all will find out what it is!

[Super]

Congratulations on the straight 'A's PJ. Well done!

What I particularly like about this your new purchase is...............it doesn't have those awful holes in the wheels for packaging that Fisher Price insisted on doing. Much nicer packaging too using the clear rubber bands,

Indeed Super, I love the 2010 packaging that F-P did without those holes in the wheels, they're pretty annoying to look at tbh. I've always loved those clear rubber bands they did.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BPT, I've got some incredible items to show to you all, and the first of these is...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Used in BNiB Condition TrackMaster Emily in "Splish, Splash, Splosh!" from F-P in 2010!

-----------------------

-----------------------

-------------------------------

-------------------------------

-----------------------
Price: $21.95
Shipping: $5.32
Total: $27.27
Location: Humble, Texas, USA
-------------------------------------
And the next item (BNiB):

TrackMaster Sir Handel in Charge from HiT Toys in 2007!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Price: $89.99
Shipping: $5.07
Total: $95.06
Location: Muskegon, Michigan, USA
--------------------------------------------
So these are my two newest additions to the collection now, and these are two items I've been looking for for a bit now actually,
in Emily's case, I've actually owned that Emily variant since I was like 4 or 3, so basically since it released. And that has been put through hell and back by 10+ years of play. So now I decided that it was time for a new one, and there it is. As you can see, it has zero damage to it on all sides, and looks practically perfect in every way. With Sir Handel, I remember posting that find of that one BNiB Sir Handel in Charge here back in April when I was 14 and I had only spent a month on this incredible forum. And didn't realize that promoted it and I just raised the stakes against myself on accident. And my dad was outbid by ONE BRITISH POUND, so that was kinda annoying. Then, last month when Spring Break began, my mom was outbid by ONE DOLLAR this time! So close again! But finally, I found this one random day in English class and bought it with no hesitations. And here it is. NUMBER 82 OF 100! 18 MORE TO GO!!!
