it's Been A Long Week!

This month has been an eventful one. My daughter was with me this week as my birthday was on the 20th and with restrictions starting to ease up, we had a small gathering at my parents. My dad's birthday was a couple of days before mine so we celebrated it together and my older brother came up from Florida ,unbeknownst to anyone, to join in the hectic month that has been May. 
The weather has been pretty amazing and my daughter and I were finally able to get in a few soft toss sessions in the front yard. As far as toy pick ups, I managed to snag up this Peter Venkman Ghostbusters reissue from Walmart. A little overpriced if you ask me at 15 bucks a pop. Not sure how much longer these will be around. Hopefully long enough for me to be able to complete the team. This guy will go on my vintage display, even though it's a reissue.

    Happy birthday! Glad you were able to spend time with your daughter, brother, and the family. As for the figure, I never got into the animated Ghostbusters series, but I like the carded figure. A lot of it has to do with the art.

      Thanks, Fuji👍 It was late 80s and early 90s toy lines like this that made it so hard for me to outgrow action figures. My nephew had most of the Ghostbusters line and I mostly admired from afar.

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou...

Recent Pick Up!

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
