I don't have the smarts to come up with my own twisted toy theatre, and I have no digital camera, but I did manage to collect these two beauts

[Kira's Mom]

A brief intermission from Monty Python...a solo Tiny!Pete photo. Pete is in heaven- he found my parents' rather large stash of gin.

An explanation for the gin stash- they won it in a silent auction at a 1920's themed party.

Yes, that is a bathtub. Bathtub gin, get it? It was made just for this party and the gin stash. So they have a mini bathtub to display all their booze for parties!

Even that much gin won't last long once Tony finds out about it.

 

[Kira's Mom]

Between Tony and Pete, it wouldn't last an hour.

 

[cooleddie74]

Tony has a redundant stomach.

And liver.

 

[Kira's Mom]

No wonder he's not dead yet.

 

[cooleddie74]

He's called Iron Man for all sorts of fun reasons.

 

[C. Cole-Chakotay]

Here are some more pictures of my Princess Diana dolls. This one is about the size of a Barbie doll and has a 2 1/2 foot train.






This is a head shot of my Franklin Mint Princess Diana doll redressed in her wedding dress.

Great pics! They really captured her face.

In other collecting news, here's the first image of the upcoming 6" Yoda from The Black Series:

The Dagobah snake looks more like a candy cane than the other snakes that have been packaged with Yoda toys since 1980, but overall this is a pretty great entry in the new 6" figure line. The green's not quite the right shade, but maybe it will be by the time the actual retail version is released in stores.

It looks more like the original Frank Oz puppet than the CGI Yodas in the Prequels. That's probably the best thing about him!

 

[Ethros]

Not the best lighting or shot, but just a quick pic of a couple of new additions I picked up


"Winter is coming! Game over, man!"

 

[cooleddie74]

Ah. Bill Paxton.

Also known as Bill Pullman. Or "that guy who's in all those blockbusters but I always get him mixed up with the other guy."

 

[Roshi]

Newest additions:

The Ent-D

 

[Roshi]

ED-209 (it's fricking huge!)

 

[Roshi]

Lupin III

 

[Roshi]

and last but not least, Fujiko Mine (Lupin III)

My first fantasy ever...

 

[Saga]

Lupin and Fujiko are awesome. i've been thinking about getting the green jacket Lupin Revoltech.

 

[Roshi]

Thanks!

ED-209 is gigantic btw. It even has prerecorded sounds!

 

[Unicron]

How gigantic? Would you buy me one?

I'm not sure if this qualifies as an actual figure or not, but I consider it one of the most awesomely hilarious bootlegs ever. Battery operated!

Mighty Car

 

[cooleddie74]

Roshi shoots and scores! Great new acquisitions, man! I especially dig the Enterprise-D. Keep the pics coming if you have more!
