Well.....I am going to be asked questions...
Ghost Rider arrived last week.
I bought a kid's Lego comic today as it had a Spidey figure and Green Goblin on it ( my friend who's in hospital, same guy who likes Playmobil Asterix and the Boat Captain saw the photo I sent and promptly took himself off to the newsagent in the lobby and bought it too- nerd !).
A huge box turned up today containing 8 X 1000 piece jigsaws that I got incredibly cheap. 2 Spacejam ones for the other aforementioned nerd , 2 for my mother ( although I'll have to leave my basement) and 4 Mario/Marvel ones.
Had an email saying that I've had 3 Street fighter figures and 2 Marvel Legends dispatched today .
Retro Kingpin is due to be dispatched shortly.
And had an email from a friendly seller who I use for my Judge Dredd figures.... She messaged me asking am I interested in a 6 inch Dredd figure , showcased at SDCC , 1000 limited run. Paying for that tmrw and it'll be here in a few days.
Waiting on Warbird, Professor X , Moon Knight and Venom too... hopefully these will be spread out a bit....
Oh , I smuggled in 3 2000ad/ Judge Dredd annuals a friend found in a retro shop but those were free...top bloke..
End of the month I'm taking a day off work to visit London to watch Lawrence of Arabia in 4k . That will necessitate a trip to a couple of comic/nerd shops whilst I'm there .

I remember watching MASK after school in syndication circa 1990. It was a favorite of mine at the time but nobody else in my kindergarten class had any idea what I was talking about. Transforming vehicles with cool guns, what was there not to love?

This thing is BIG! (That's what she said).The engineering that goes into this is mind boggling. I really like how they gave the weapons their own storage spot.
Couldn't get a good picture, but there is a window in the back in Quill's room.
Really fun build with all the angles and how they came together.

That does look like a great build...
Yesterday, Dhalsim, Chun Li and Bison from Street fighter turned up, as did Havok and Vision Marvel Legends.
Wife was um..... what have you got now...?
6 inch Dredd should be here on Monday,...

I had a zartan action figure and dropped it down the sewer near school. I’d see it there every time I walked by. His chest plate would glow sometimes. This is circa 1984 I think.
I wonder if a powerful magnet would attract the screws in the back or thighs.
Well , I pick this up in 20 mins or so.
As u folk know , not a huge Pop fan but it was about 5 dollars and it's a Spidey figure so I don't mind that.
Picked up 28 old copies of 2000ad yesterday
and three mini Pop heads of Spidey , Venom and Black Panther for 6 dollars .
It's 7am here , off out to collect the Vulture and do some running around before going to a local car boot sale ( like your garage sales) and hopefully I'll find a Marvel Legends Galactus for 15 dollars...

Iron Maiden Ultimate Future Past World Tour Action Figure Two-Pack
Those are cool but if I got them and she saw them I would have to Run To The Hills....
