And now we can start the final Big Pile Of Loot, at least for a while.The January Pile of Loot box was full of a mix of stuff. Late holiday sales, pre-orders that showed up at the end of the year or in January, some pre-orders I held off on shipping in December because I was waiting for more of the line to drop and then that went askew, and some stuff, like Boo Berry, I wanted whether or not it was part of the gift-giving season.
So we complete the Jada cereal mascots. Boo Berry is, by nature, a little… slimmer of an offering than even Franken Berry and Count Chocula, because he ain’t got legs. Or an alternate head. Instead, he has a stand and a glow in the dark gimmick, respectively.
The nice thing about the glow in the dark gimmick is that it extends to the toy cereal box and even the figure packaging. The bad thing about it is that it’s largely unuseful to me. But that’s fine. It’s still a nice sculpt and articulated… where it can be. Little stub arms don’t get elbows and I understand that.
Once again, the SH Figuarts Pac-Man proves to be a Photography MVP, because Blue Berry is a BLUE GHOST. I don’t need to spell that shit out any more, do I?
Surprisingly difficult to find a suitable creative commons background for this, because all the search results for “blue neon hallway” were, first, face-on, and second, clearly AI-generated slop. But I found something I could color-shift to blue, add glow, add reflections, etc. Waka waka.
