My Plants vs. Zombies collection (part 3)

Hi guys! Welcome to another part of my Plants vs. Zombies collection. Like the first two parts, this part will be featured some of my Plants vs. Zombies that I got from several of the online stores or some other sort of the places where I got these toys from my favorite game. So, before I show all of the toys on this part, here are the toys that were featured on the previous part:
All of my Plants vs. Zombies collection on the previous part (or Part 2)
Just like the last two parts, this part will be back to the normal again (just like the Part 1), but I have no idea if I didn't get any of the toys or other stuffs more than a year, I should stop doing this due to I got some of my favorite Plants vs. Zombies toys already (especially plants, except one), or I'm going to collect other Plants vs. Zombies things. So, here are the toys or stuffs that I got on this part:

1. K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 3, Fire Peashooter

The Fire Peashooter itself (followed by other K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies figures that I got from the Part 1, and a Peashooter on Pumpkin on the corner left)
Yes! A new K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies figure toy has been arrived on my collection, as well as the rarest one on this series (or Elite). It is a latest series of the main series of Plants vs. Zombies game, not Garden Warfare. It is much identical like regular Peashooter from Series 1, except this is red and slightly transparent. Fortunately, I got the undamaged bag, unlike the Snow Pea which is stapled (which means missing something, but in that case back in that day when I opened it, I got the one without it's lovely stem), so it means it's all normal on this one. So, here are the secret codes of these figures from this series which means one of the numbers are underlined like usual for these K'NEX blind bags (tell me if I'm wrong, because I'm not sure):

0514179 = ABCDEFG
0514179 = 0 = A = Sunflower (Fire Peashooter, if underlined twice)
0514179 = 5 = B = Laser Bean
0514179 = 1 = C = Conehead Peasant Zombie
0514179 = 4 = D = Unknown Big Wave Beach Zombie (it's like a Flag Zombie on that world)
0514179 = 1 = E = Snapdragon (probably)
0514179 = 7 = F = Adventurer Zombie (probably)
0514179 = 9 = G = Cave Zombie

If you still not understand yet, here is a SquirrelStampede's video of it, but the codes are different (by the way, it's still got the same placement thing of the secret codes as ever, like 0 = A, it means you still got the Sunflower, even in different numbers of codes between the list on the top and video below here):

Advantages:

  • As usual, these figures are look nice and much sensible as the promotional pictures.
  • It didn't wreck the paint of this figure since this is transparent, so it looks better than those two solid ones from the previous two series, one pea plant figure per each series.

 Disadvantages: 

  • It's watermark on the figure still said from 2014, despite in fact it was released in 2016. 
  • Since this is transparent, one of the parts like the base will be crack if you slammed it down, unless in accident.
  • Sometimes it's projectile just stuck inside the shooter, almost like the other shooting plants (such as Peashooter, Coconut Cannon, and Snow Pea). 
  • The connection between the stem and the base itself is loose.
  • Rather than the piece of fire on the trigger itself (just like in Plants vs. Zombies 2 was), the trigger is just same as the original Peashooter except it was made in this manner.

2. K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 1, Peashooter

The Peashooter itself
I know if this is old, but it's finally entered on my collection! Also, this is what's the original figure that I wanted back when I got the Bloomerang one, and this was sold out, so. It is like the other 2 peashooting plants that I got from this toy brand, except this was the first peashooting plant featured in K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies universe, followed by the Snow Pea, and Fire Peashooter that I got just like before this one. Luckily, this one is also got no damage on the blind bag that packed this figure, so it means it didn't have the bad fate like my K'NEX Snow Pea was. I always adore this figure, due to how nice it is, and it shoots well as usual. There are no more words besides these, so there we go for this K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies figure toy.

Advantages:

  • As usual, these figures are look nice and much sensible as the promotional pictures.
  • It looks more slim compared to KFC Plants vs. Zombies Peashooter on Pumpkin that I got on last part, although the two elemental ones also look slim as this.

Disadvantages:

  • It has a tiny built-in dirt somewhere on the body on this figure itself.
  • The connection between the stem and the base itself is loose.
  • Sometimes the projectile just stuck inside the shooter like the other K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies shooting plants.

3. Cheap Plants vs. Zombies Sunflower keychain

The cheap Sunflower keychain itself
It's been a while after I got that old K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Peashooter mini figure, I just found this very cheap Sunflower keychain that I bought from a small shop just near my house. Nothing special about it, and that's just only the information about this thing. Also, this is a first non-Plants vs. Zombies toy that is featured here, even though it looks like the ones that I listed on scrapped version of Plants vs. Zombies collection.

Advantages:

Nothing.

Disadvantages:

Since this is a cheapest Plants vs. Zombies stuff that I acquired, the picture of the Sunflower itself has been already flaked off from it's foam, unless I glued it over. 

4. Plants vs. Zombies Threepeater toy

The Threepeater toy
Purchased this from somebody in my country who sold this toy on somewhere on one of popular social medias. It's actually came from the blister, so this toy was used already, like the some of other Plants vs. Zombies from previous two parts. It is basically a 3"-ish Plants vs. Zombies toy that doesn't have any triggers and projectiles, even though all 3 heads does have the trigger to pull like it's normal one head version, but it doesn't have any, so. Anyway, this is a fairly nice figure, and also this is a first multi-directional peashooting plant that is entered on my collection.

Advantages:

  •  It's fairly well-made.
  •  Although the stem are just springs, but they are sturdy.

 Disadvantages:

  • It doesn't have any triggers either, despite these heads are look similar as the one head version.
  • No articulation, despite this toy has springs.
  • There is a line dirt on one of the heads, and some bit of vanishing damage on one of it's own eyes.
  • It has eyebrows, unlike in their actual game itself. Also, the leaves on the back doesn't look similar on their actual game as well.
  • Slight bad moulding lines on several parts of this toy.

5.  Plants vs. Zombies Melon-pult toy

The Melon-pult, yet another infamous Plants vs. Zombies toy (but not that worst as that Snow Pea from Part 1)
Purchased this from the same person as that Threepeater toy, as well as another lobbed shot plant that I bought as well. It's also originally from the blister, so this toy also was used before. Although it also have a spring like the Threepeater, it does have a trigger to lob projectiles, except it is more loose than the KFC Plants vs. Zombies Cabbage-pult, although this doesn't have it's own projectile (probably the previous owner lost it, but it doesn't matter). Other than that, it is worth enough to put this along with other 2 lobbed shot plant that I own before, except one of them just shoots backwards.

Advantages:

It lobs in the proper way as the KFC Plants vs. Zombies Cabbage-pult.

Disadvantages:

One of it's own eyes has ben chopped off for a bit, making this toy is a bit infamous other than it's own projectile was lost. Also, this also has a slight bad moulding lines around it's own body.

Unrelated, but this is how the Snow Pea with the original stem supposed to be like... It's using Peashooter stem and Sunflower's base...

That cheap Plants vs. Zombies Sunflower keychain just broke so easily later on...
