Wow JD, thanks heaps for your instant reply! THAT is one brilliant idea! In fact I think I would've never thought about that! I will see which Body will go best for him! Man, this is so good! I think I would've just sold it. Did you get this GoT figure yourself? Thanks also for the reference picture! Muchas gracias for your support, JD!

Wow, that was crazy. Hope you can use it for something. Man, quality control nowadays just seems non-existent. Why would a good company allow that type of product to hit shelves?

Guess we have seen some pretty narly Star Wars Figures over the years too though.

   I was racking my brain for a minute or so and that's what I came up with. After that I was like maybe I should get one of those and make whatever alien that guy is lol. It would be almost perfect, just the ears are different.

Got this cool "Lost Planet" robot from Nova from Joe Customs!

He even tossed in this awesome cast brain alien (fits over action figure heads to "control" them).

Nice stuff Dan. I think I have one of those brain aliens on my head right now. Can't seem to get rid of a headache. Nice stuff though.

Indeed! Man, your collection of fodder, parts & pieces must exceed the number of gold bars in Fort Knox by a few times! Cool stuff there.

Hey, those mini squids are awesome! Safari Ltd. is such a brilliant brand! What's the story behind this good luck series"? Are they lucky Charms or something like that? And how much is such a bag? Thanks for sharing this, Dan!

Add: Okay, I've found this bag  with 192 mini squids for 106€ shipped from Spain:

And this display sells for 10k here in Germany...WOW!

Ancient Finds


This bad boy has a MRSP of 84,99€ here in Germany. It went on sale for 59,99€ a few times. I still didn't bite because JW is not my collecting focus. But for 30€ on eBay I took it (38€ shipped)! I knew it was big, but hardly did I know how huge it really is!
In fact it's in 1/12 scale! So much about vehicles and other big stuff not being possible for Hasbro...

Anyhow I looked up the article on Wikipedia and it is as if MATTEL had done the same and took exactly the data on there to make their T-Rex! It was about 12.3 m Long and 3.66 meters high (hips) and here we are:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrannosaurus

I have the Walmart "Battle Damage" exclusive version (red paint "wounds") and I love it!

I also have the rarer Velociraptor "Blue" that they did in the same size. I use them as Kaiju sized monsters with my 4" figures.

There is an Indominus Rex coming in this scale later this year that I want to pick up as well.
