Fixit : Droid of the Day – 02/21/2020

“Oooh! This wire needs surveillance—graciousness—<FZZZT>—maintenance! See? Fun! “

Fixit is an Autobot from Transformers. His character is a little quirky jack lift that has a lot of technical ability.

This version of Fixit is part of the One Step Changers Transformers Robots in Disguise sub-series released in 2016. I found this figure in a K-Mart I think when it first came out. Now it seems to be going crazy on aftermarket. Amazon marketplace has this figure listed for almost $80 (not worth that!) And the smaller Legion version for $160…???? Ebay is way better with sold listings from $15-$25.

Omega : Droid of the Day – 02/20/2020

Here is another Fortnite figure I am not sure if he is a battle droid of some kind or a human wearing armor. I like to think of Omega as a battle droid though.

The Omega figure was in the 1st wave of Fortnite figures and was packaged in the Early Game Survival Kit packaging where he came with a full set of gear and some weapons.

Check the Archive for more figures:

Omega is still pretty newish. He can be found in many outlet stores like ROSS or Burlington Coat Factory. Amazon is always my go to place for good deals on Fortnite figures.

Modern Metal Sonic : Droid of the Day – 02/18/2020

Modern Metal Sonic is from a 1998 Comic and maybe a Game. He is a Robot created to oppose the real Sonic.

Same as the Classic Metal Sonic this figure is from a two-pack that includes a comic made by Tomy in 2018 from what I can tell. There are a bunch of Metal Sonics that have been released over the years and this character seems to be prone to having a lot of bootleg figures made of it.

Check the Archive for more figures:

I got this set from Amazon but it is now only available in their Marketplace. Like I said though there have been many versions of Metal Sonic released. Here are some examples from Amazon and Ebay.
