2 MINUTE TOY BREAK !

When last Brothermidnight and I conducted a trade ,this guy made It into my collection.At first I didn't know what to make of It .But after holding it in my hands and playing around with It a bit,I fell in love!This thing is solid.Standing at a whopping 12 inches tall.Mighty chunky and far from wimpy. In fact I'd say It's pretty hefty.   Damn!So cool!And It's made out of durable good old fashioned action figure plastic.I miss being able to play with a toy without worrying about breaking something. THWIP! I wish one of his hands was a balled up fist.I'm sure I would have been able to put him In some cool punching poses. Bikram Yoga  ,anyone? Hmmmmmmmmm... It's comparison time!Wait,I've heard that before... Thanks Brother ;) I'll be getting around to the rest of that awesomeness when I get some time. 

A big shout out to Brother Midnight for hooking me up with some key Marvel Universe figures that have been on my want list for some time now. The very first item In the trade package was  a pre cursor to the Marvel madness that would ensue.Love the nostalgia this Colorforms  Lazer Blazers sticker sheet packs!First time ever seeing this. Loyal Subjects Trap Jaw!I absolutely love this figure and have already taken to ebay to find some Loyal Subjects Joe figures.Just a solid product with accessories and decent articulation.  O.K. ,where to begin.I'll start with the  Dr.Strange figure.The one I have now has a loose leg that  always falls off and now I have solid replacement.My Wrecking Crew is two deep now thanks to the Bulldozer figure.All I need now Is Piledriver and Thunderball. Mystique  was a total surprise and a must have for my team of mutant villains.I finally have a Secret Wars accurate Doc Ock figure!And Kraven the Hunter!Kraven the fu*!...

When I first started out this whole action figure blog thing,It was all about having a place to showcase my figures other than my toy room.Camaraderie  would ensue and then the trading began.I can't begin to tell you how much trading has helped me with  my collecting goals.Brothermidnight of  Green Plastic Squirt Gun  has been ,not only a good trade partner,but also a good friend.He's helped me fill holes in my collection with vintage  figures like Kenner's Michael Knight and Swamp Thing ,TMNT Foot Soldiers,M.U.S.C.L.E. as well as several MOTU figures.Thanks to him I have been able to cross off quite a few figures from my want lists and now I can cross off  a couple more! I didnt even know I wanted that Alien figure.Brothermidnight knows what you want even before you do.That Mojo has been on my radar along with other Toybiz product that I feel blend in well with the modern MU figures.Lady Deadpool and Thorita were an awesome plus and that Smurf book is...

This trade box from Brother Midnight of the top notch  photography heavy blog  Green Plastic Squirt Gun  ,really blew my mind!If the vintage movie posters weren't enough,how do  bags full of California Raisins and M.U.S.C.L.E. figures sound? You even hooked It up with the Doctor Doom Titan figure!I freaking love that thing!I quickly put him up on display with the rest of the Titans.And damn,that Palisades Kermit!I'll be going over that and the rest of this star studded cast of toys  throughout the upcoming week and weekend.Many thanks Brother,many thanks :)

Ho-lee SHIT!Brother Midnight's trade package arrived today ,and right off the bat,delivered a punch that knocked me silly and right back to the 80's!A while back,I posted about a man cave I was In the process of hooking up and Bro Midnight gave me an idea to throw up some Christmas lights and maybe a couple of movie posters. Both were great ideas ,only problem Is I didn't have any movie posters :( Well,Brother took It upon himself to aid me In my efforts to create my make shift man cave with a mind blowing assortment of  80's movie posters! Willow!God, If you don't remember Willow then you were In a cryogenic sleep for most of the 80's.I need to see this again! Predator 2  In spanish!Me gusta very,very much :) Are you kidding me?E friggin' T!?!You almost made a grown man cry with this one Brother. Last but not least,a film so epic that none of the words In the title had to be capitalized. *batteries not included !This film showed...
