Sweet. The oldest Tarantino films are still the best and the most memorable.

So I've decided to use my gray Spartan until I get the Red one...

[cooleddie74]

It's fun to play "Stuck in the Middle With You" while looking at these photos.

Reservoir Spartans.

Part three of The Guests in Hawkeye's Nest...

Uh-oh, something's happening!


Chirp, chirp! Awwwwwwwww...I think they like Hulk and Fury.


They're so fluffy!! But Fury is worried about Mama Bird...


"Stop following me! I'm not your mom!" Poor Clint.


The fourth and final part (Mama Bird and the punishment of Loki) will be later this week...

[OdoWanKenobi]

Haha. Sorry Hawkeye, they've imprinted.

[cooleddie74]

Sublime.

[Kira's Mom]

Poor Clint. He's going to miss those chicks when Mama shows up!

I was thinking of imprinting when I set this up...I did a project in high school biology where I raised a duckling. He was so cute. I hated giving him away when the project was finished.

I was thinking more like ridiculous.

I recently changed my definition of the word for special occasions like this.

[Kira's Mom]

In case anyone was wondering, the eggs didn't come with chicks in them. I hollowed them out and then stuffed them in. It was fun.

They'll have a little St. Patrick's Day fun, and Easter, too. After that, I'm not sure where to go with them.

[cooleddie74]

Flag Day could prove to be some serious patriotic fun for all involved. If you have lots of little American flags for them to wave go for it. Plus there's the first day of spring....Memorial Day....July 4th....

[Kira's Mom]

Oh, yeah. July 4th is a good one.

Mother's Day and Father's Day are out. Lots of orphans and daddy issues.

Been on a KISS related kick again..which happens from time to time. Bought the 1974 first album 8" figures from Figures Toy Company, bought the Gene Simmons variant (Hotter Than Hell packaging) and the Paul Stanley Bandit variations too. Bought the 1977 Love Gun re-issues last year. I had to settle for the 8" versions because the 12" are so flippin expensive.

[cooleddie74]

I have a close friend who'd probably love you. He's an enormous KISS fan and while he doesn't collect toys he'd probably love it if he got his hands on some KISS collector figures.

Like you said some of them are so expensive that many fans of the band are priced out of the market but I think it'd be great if a toy manufacturer with a solid reputation for quality, accurate likenesses and affordable prices could make a line of rock band/star figures from different groups. It'd be pretty sweet to have the entire original lineup of Guns 'n' Roses and other major bands of the last thirty or forty years complete with their most recognizable stage outfits.
