Sideshow: The Catalogs
It shows how much attention to detail and design Sideshow is capable of, when their catalogs are hard-bound stitched-spine coffee table books. Rarely does a mere catalog command so much love and care. I ordered both in-stock volumes, 10 and 11, last week and which arrived by courier today. Both contained many ‘wants’ – mostly […]

“Hello, I’m Mr. Plow.

The World Of Springfield line was produced by Playmates Toys from 1999 to 2004. I picked […]

Lego – minifigures – Series 1
I’ve been building with Lego for over 25 years. I was customising Lego Mini-Figures (or getting my Dad to help me) for as long as I can remember.

This Art Print turned up in the post today – a beautiful piece by NYC artist RoganJosh. I purchased it through Etsy.com which I’d never used before – but I went back today to post postive feedback for him and turned out he has closed his shop due to overwelming sales! So I am very […]

The Butler Se7en
And just like that, six becomes seven! I had only one more achievement (“Not As Easy As It Used To Be”) to get on Lego Indy 2, and after three attempts today I did it with a few mistakes and a mere couple of seconds to spare! The Butler Se7en now are: Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Modern Warfare 2 […]
