  I got the Super7 Munsters Herman today. Lily and Grandpa are still backordered. He comes with his lunchbox and he looks much better in person. I love the Munsters. They're monsters on the outside and superficially but on the inside, they're nice normal people. The normal looking people who interact with them are the real monsters. They're always trying to con the Munsters into something, but they get what's coming to them at the end. It's actually pretty deep if you think about it.   From what I understand Rob Zombie is going to do a Munsters movie. I can't wait. I like Rob Zombie too.

Nice finds, Dan! Sometimes Dollar Stores have some nice licensed products as well.

I went for some nostalgia last week and got these 3 games from 3 different sellers for 24€ shipped:



I miss those days when you got some content (an actual campaign!) for your money and were not dependent on Internet connection. My 11yo brother was totally surprised by the fact that I didn't have to download the updates of the past 12 years before I can play the games! It's magic!

When I work on my projects I also like listening to music and different soundtracks. And yes I'm still old-school and buy CDs in case my hard drives crash. I'm usually not paying just for mp3 files.
So I found these OSTs of Assassin's Creed for 6€ each plus the art book of AC4 Black Flag.
Haven't played the games myself, yet, only watched my brother play through them. And I especially love the music composed for these games!

Nice. I too like some background music when I do things sometimes and putting in a cd is so much easier than finding it and playing it on my phone.

  I got lily and Grandpa today. They're alright, Grandpa is the best I think, and he was the first to sell out. He has a vinyl cape and comes with a large chemistry flask and a small rack of test tubes, they both fit in his hands really well.  Lily comes with a candle, that fit well in her hands.

My birthday presents to myself.

A bit disappointing as I was hoping to find more/better items that I was wanting, but alas, I saw tons of new stuff (Spinmaster Batgirl wave, 4 other new "Fortnite" figures, 3 different assortments of "Jurassic World" repaints, new Kid Galaxy dinos, etc.), but this was all I was interested in.

The Child is too large for 1/18 scale, but I wanted the hoverpram. I can pop different head and hands on the Child and have a different diminutive alien for a diorama :)

Dollar Tree DVD score!

Saw this on Netflix last year, it is a really fun creature feature with decent practical effects.

Today's Dollar Tree (DVDS and micro screwdriver set) and thrift store scores!

The military truck is by Chap Mei and was only available in a huge $40+ set. I plan on stripping the wheels off and modifying it into a repulsorcraft.

Nice too see dollar tree is getting more titles in. I'm a huge glutton for getting dvd/bluray from that place. I keep looking & hoping to find them micro dinos... But no luck. Be cool to see what you do with that truck. I have 2 myself from thrifts (and have seen tons). I just can't decide what to make from it/them. Gutted it could be a ship or skiff, heck even a jawa ride. I've seen quite a few done for mad-max-style Joe stuff.

I had a surprise visit from sgcaper from Joe Customs today!

He had picked these up for me over a year ago and I had almost completely forgotten about them.

Found these five fellows on ebay the other day and they arrived on the 13th day:




They are about 5.5" tall and can sit on any edge. You can find these for as low as $9.99 with FREE worldwide shipping. You can find these by looking for: Black Robe Nightcrawler Resin Crafts Gothic Creeper Garden Ornaments 13*8.5 cm
I'm going to use them on a Sith grave diorama on Korriban to sit behind the sarcophagus.
