Transformers: Animated Starscream

Purchased at Walmart in 2008.

To be honest, I wasn't real impressed with how cartoonish these products looked. Ironic since the name of the line is "Animated" right? I purchased Soundwave previously because he had kind of a neat look to him. And I didn't get Starscream from the movie line of toys because I had found Thundercracker and he had a great colour scheme to him instead of the bland beige/tan Starscream had. So when I saw this one, I made a mental note of getting it.

GIJoe 25th Anniversary: B.A.T.

Purchased in 2008 at WalMart.

This was one of my favourite GIJoe's back in the day (1986) because he had this holographic chest and lots of attachments. Well, as usual, they shrunk him up a little but dare I say the attachments are...cooler!

Star Wars: The Legacy Darth Vader

Purchased in 2008 at Target

Found this very intriguing as we only saw Darth without his mask two times: Once in Empire when we see the robotic arms puttinghis mask back together and again at his death in Jedi.
