I've been doing some rearranging with my daughter coming down to stay with me for the summer. Naturally, my toys come with me to my room, safe from hot curling irons and blow dryersπ
Have fun with your daughter this summer. I discovered taking down a shelf of figures is kind of therapeutic. A few weeks ago, I took down my Star Wars shelves. Along the way I dusted the shelves, cleaned the figures and Lego sets, consolidated three shelves into two, and rearranged the stuff. It took several hours, but it was so satisfying.
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...
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.
Sounds like as good of a reason as any to "secret" away your toys :)

ReplyDeleteThanks, Fuji! And so true! I think that's what I like the most about action figure collecting and that's displaying them.
DeleteThat set up looks like it's going to be epic.
ReplyDeleteIt should! Thanks, Jigsπ
