On a two hour Pawn Stars in Seattle they showed a Lego diorama piece of Vader and Luke in the cloud city, the "I am your father" scene where he's about to lose a hand. There was also a Batcave one as well!

Just learned a company called TUBBZ has done a whole series of rubber duckies based on various movies and TV shows. I think I shall be able to resist these, tho some of them are cute as heck.

Received yesterday the 10" Funko Pop Sentinel. Not my vintage, but close enough.

Somewhat delighted to see the miniature Wolverine that is included is wearing my version of his costume. Tho they did get the back wrong. I suppose since virtually every artist who's drawn that costume has also got the back wrong, wrong has become right.

A kind of mini-history of Marvel right there!

This brings to 4 the number of 10" Pops I have. The newly arrived Sentinel, Superman, Galactus and the Thing.

(Also got their Superman in his original costume, mounted in front of a recreation of the cover of ACTION COMICS 1. This one I have decided to display in the box.

Woohoo! can't wait! Won't miss it this time around.
Because I grew up with your design, that's automatically how I picture Wolverine

A flock of new Funko Pop figures ordered, including the cast of WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS, Ben Wyatt from PARKS AND RECREATION, and—big nostalgia blast—Zorro! Resisting GILLIGAN’S ISLAND.

This will necessitate new shelving! :-(

The start of my new rabbit hole is the Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadren.

I’ll have to edit my photo as it is too big at the moment.

I’ve a few more on the way such as the Millennium Falcon, TIE Fighter
(damaged & undamaged), Troop transporter, Slave 1 & Asajj Ventures’ ship.

Reminds me a lot of the old Galoob Micro Machine Action Fleet.

The stated trick here is that they are supposed to be in scale with each
other, but they are not quite sticking to this.

The danger is the chase ships which are starting to command a pretty
penny. I’ve managed to find a chase X-Wing, but that’s it.
