I picked up this awesome Skelesnail at Spirit Halloween!

It is unarticulated, but has a wonderful sculpt. The plastic is firm and non waxy.

I plan on painting the snail a nice, sickly mucusy yellow-green and the shell a brownish shade with the skull drybrushed in my traditional bone colors.

It scales very well as a large creature with 4" figures as seen in the last 2 images.

It retails for $10.99, but I had a 20% off coupon which brought it to $9.34 including the sales tax.

The crystal Halloween decoration from Spirit Halloween is pretty nice!

The colors are AMAZING, the sculpt is crisp, and the size is great with plenty of room to lay out mystic items for ceremonies.

I will need to sculpt or build up a base of some sort to bring the altar up to waist level to my action figures, but I am already very happy with this purchase!

It retails for $16.99.

I saw these at Five Below today, if they were cheaper (like $1-$2), I would have grabbed some of them just for the coral bases (at least the blue and yellow ones, not crazy about the design of the pink ones) for undersea diorama elements. The coral bases are about 3.5" tall.

I saw this "Micro Toy Box" set at Foreman Mills for $7.99.

There are more or less random assortments of micro sized toys in each package, but what struck me was the Nerf rifle in the upper right- it is perfectly 1/18 scale.

There is also a larger Nerf pistol that looks to be 1/10 scale as well in the same package.

If anyone needs 1/18 scale cats and dogs, as well as their accessories (dog houses, assorted sized food bowls, etc.), hit up Five Below for this Show Pets "Fun! Bucket".

Saw a "Space Exploration" Play Set that I have never seen before at Marshall's.

The satellites and accessory tree alone are worth the $9.99 price!

These little articulated metallic dragons were from a dollar store called "1$Zone" and were $1.25 each.

The paint on the metallic dragons is super sloppy so they will need to be repainted, also, there is a ton of flash along the seams that needs trimming before they get repainted, but for $1.25 each, they are pretty decent.

The last picture is with a 4" figure for scale.

The Hallmark "House Of The Dragon" ornament was 50% off so it only cost me $9.99.

The Dragon ornament is made from a pretty decent vinyl, not quite as rigid as Schleich, Papo or Safari Ltd., and has some beautiful sculpted details and great paint deco.

The last picture is with a 4" figure for scale:

These Hallmark "Stranger Things" ornaments were 50% off at Walgreens so they only cost me $4.99 each.

I bought them to be dwarf Demogorgons for my 3.75"/4" figures. I have a bunch of the Funko action figures and these will supplement them in dioramas.

There are 3 new "Teeny Tinies" food playsets available at Five Below.

The foods' scale ranges from 1/18 to 1/6, often in the same pack, but the "Market Place" playset is pretty much all 1/18 scale.

The Holiday and Sauce sets are not my photos.

I cannot be the only one thinking that these 5" scale "Gwar" figures would make excellent trolls for 3.75"/4" fantasy figures, right?

You're totally right. Those are pretty cool, where do you find more info about them?

The "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" Hollow Earth Crystals can contain 3.75" figures quite nicely for use as magical prisons. 4" figures can fit as well, but they would have to stoop a bit to fit. The crystals split in half to put figures inside (as well as contain the mystery mini monsters packed inside them).

They are coming soon and are produced by Trick Or Treat Studios.
