People, by nature, have some interesting things to say. Here are some of my things. Some about acting. All about living ...

Sunday, February 12, 2006

Right. I have a recent fixation with these Marvel "Mighty Beanz".

I was short 4 Beanz, so I Walgreens and bought a few (15) more packages.

keep in mind I only needed 4 Beanz!

And here's how it netted out:

  • Package #27 (All repeats: Jean Grey (repeat #2), Spider-Man (repeat #3), Hawkeye (repeat #1, Uncommon), Peter Parker (repeat #3, Uncommon), DeathStrike (repeat #3)
  • Package #28 (Human Torch! (Uncommon, just Dr. Doom to finish the FF set!), Professor X (repeat #5), Dr. Strange (repeat #2, Rare), Red Skull (repeat #2, Uncommon), Skrull (repeat #4))
  • Package #29 (Iron Man (repeat #2), Dr. Octopus (repeat #4), Wolverine (repeat #1, Uncommon, yellow duds), Magneto (repeat #3, Uncommon), Black Bolt (repeat #1, Rare)
  • Package #30 (Spider-Man (repeat #4), Absorbing Man (repeat #4), Luke Cage (repeat #1, Uncommon), Wolverine II (repeat #1, brown costume, rare), Cyclops (repeat #4))
  • Package #31 (Invisible Woman (repeat #3), Iceman (repeat #2), Annihilus (repeat #3), Bulleye (repeat #2, Uncommon), Elektra (repeat #2, Rare; cool to have Bullseye and Elektra in the same package!))
  • Package #32 (Skrull (repeat #5), Super Skrull (repeat #1, Rare; cool to have both Skrulls in one package), Thor (repeat #2), Cyclops (repeat #5), Kang (repeat #3))
  • Package #33 (Jean Grey (repeat #3), Daredevil (repeat #2), Scarlet Witch (repeat #2), Venom (repeat #2), Human Torch (repeat #1, Uncommon))
  • Package #34 (Invisible Woman (repeat #4), Hawkeye (repeat #2, Uncommon), Super Skrull (repeat #2, Rare), Annihilus (repeat #4), Jean Grey (repeat #4))
  • Package #35 (Human Torch (repeat #2, Uncommon; oh, now he shows up a bunch!), Daredevil (repeat #3), Gambit (repeat #2, Rare), Vision (repeat #2), Giant Man (repeat #5))
  • Package #36 (Iron Man (repeat #3), Dr. Strange (repeat #3, Rare), Absorbing Man (repeat #5), Black Panther (repeat #3), Skrull (repeat #6))
  • Package #37 (Thing (repeat #4, Uncommon), Cyclops (repeat #6), Phoenix (repeat #1 Rare; actually rare -- 2 in 37 packages/185 Beanz!), Mary Jane (repeat #2, Uncommon; ditto!), Captain America (repeat #1; supposedly Common, but double ditto!))
  • Package #38 (Nightcrawler! Rare! Only Colossus left!), Red Skull (repeat #3, Uncommon), Beast (repeat #5), Giant Man (repeat #6), Mr. Fantastic (repeat #2))
  • Package #39 (Wasp (repeat #1), Mr. Fantastic (repeat #3), Peter Parker (repeat #4, Uncommon), Red Skull (repeat #4, Uncommon), Ultron (repeat #1, Rare))
  • Package #40 (Iron Man (repeat #4), Dr. Octopus (repeat #5), Beast (repeat #6), Black Bolt (repeat #2, Rare), Red Skull (repeat #5, Uncommon))
  • Package #41 (Last package in this set! Fingers crossed! Hulk (repeat #6), Thing (repeat #5, Uncommon), Cyclops (repeat #7), Black Panther (repeat #4), Wolverine II (repeat #2, brown costume, rare))
Yes, that's 41 packages total, but in my defense, they're only 59-cents a pack, rather than the $6 a pack. Right, not much of a defense.

After all this, I'm still left with 2 missing Beanz: Two (apparently genuine) Rares (Colossus and Dr. Doom, which would finish the X-Men and Fantastic Four sets, respectively).

So, yes, for those keeping score at home:
  • Packages bought to date: 41
  • Total Mighty Beanz acquired: 405
  • Amount spent: $26.05
  • Beanz needed before today's set: 4
  • Beanz acquired from today's set: 2
  • Beanz still needed: 2! Freakin' 2!
  • What these things are good for: I still have no idea ...

Someone should probably do an intervention.
