What are those Skyrim things? Books? Seem pretty cool.

Sets of idols of the Gods of Skyrim.

I got a set last year and posted pics of them in this thread somewhere.

After work Walmart clearance score!

These brand new "Halo" Ghosts were on clearance for $4.95 each (originally $19.98).

Due to the large shelf space the Ghost takes up, I will probably only be keeping 1 of them (for a pair with the one I got when they were first released) along with all of the Elite Warlord figures and trading off the 4 remaining Ghosts.

Nice deal on those, Dan

I got this Scalextric 1/32 Back to the Future themed slot car in the mail the other day. It is an analog car but supposedly has working lights. I need to throw some juice to it and see what lights come on. I think I have an extra chip I can use to make this one digital. It’s the same brand of that Mad Max interceptor I converted some time ago.
  I can see some blue led lights mounted correctly to partially simulate the 88MPH effect. An electrical sparking/flashing effect w white lights could be added with the right train set circuit

Nice pick up folks.

Clint, that Delorean looks awesome. I can see that going around your track dio. I see they are making a Transformer of that if you can believe it.

Dan, what can I say, you always find the deals. You definitely have some of the best retail brick and mortar stores where you live.

Awesome DeLorean! Id like to see it lit up too.

   I got my Super 7 Mars Attacks The Invasion begins figure. He comes with a ray gun and his helmet is removable to allow you to turn the head.  There are two others, burning flesh and Destroying a dog. These are based on the 1962 TOPPS Mars Attacks trading cards, as opposed to the movie, which I think is awesome. I'm an opener, but I actually like the card better than the figure, but I'm going to use the figure in my spaceport. I like that art style, like a cross between Flash Gordon and MAD. I liked it so much I ordered the 50th Anniversary collection hardback with all the cards and concept art. That'll arrive next week maybe.

I got my Super 7 Toad Chet from Weird Science.  It's such a cool figure. He's a decent size, bigger than I expected. His detail and paint apps are fantastic. Yeah it's 5poa, but he doesn't need any more than that. He's beautiful.

Kelly LeBrock. I had a huge crush on her when that movie came out. Nice figure.
