Hi Stickman! Long time, no here brother man! We definately share the same passion for collectibles. I love the Civil War figures dressed in Battle gears items. Auggie has come a long way. I forgot, are you in Washington state? My sister is making plans to move to Seattle.
I am
KFOG. Right here in Great ol Seattle. The summer here has been very beautiful except for the past two days, but we really needed the rain.
Great to hear from you
Dr. Z, hopefully I will have more time to visit one of my favorite threads. How's that Beneath Jail Dio holding up?
JJ- I did SS' commercial contest which took two months and am now working on a GI JOE skit for a friend that is currently working with HASBRO and is in charge of the GI JOE FILM FEST and has asked me to make a quick opener for him which is a little behind schedule but I've been told the Fest has been pushed to October or until Hasbro gets things sorted out.
I'm a big American Civil War fan and am reaching out to Battle Gear Toys to hopefully do some work for them one day as they make truly remarkable items. I love SS but their prices just don't jive with the quality anymore. I recently canceled my Crimson Cobra Commander and Toht w/Ark just to name a few. SS did a great job with Darth Vader but the prices are getting too steep. I truly still feel that SS makes some of the best headsculpts in the business and admire them for that. The HT Apes look phenomenal and URSUS is beyond words, but outside of the Ape line I think that's it for me. I'm really tired of movie licensed items and would really like to see more unique and original ideas like the SS of old used to pump out.
Yes
Jessica, I still have sleepless nights. Just last night I was up at 3AM and luckily had Winston Groom's (Wrote Forrest Gump) book Vicksburg 1863 to help pass the next couple of hours.
KFOG you're right I always enjoyed seeing your CW figures. Too bad you sold your collection. You're right about Auggie, he has some amazing items and they're only getting better. I promised to keep my lips sealed but he has amazing things coming later this year.
PZ, lol sorry that you didn't like that DR. Z was beamed to the bridge. That shot is actually my screen saver. Everyone that sees it laughs and says, "That's a funny shot."
I can't wait to break out my wagon again and take more Ape shots, that will surely happen when the HT apes arrive.
Well I'm getting the Dr.Z PF Ex for $85. due to my gift card from last year. I really wonder how he is going to turn out. I really don't have room for him but he's Ape related so I have to keep him. I almost wish he had a real main like the HT line. Does anyone here own any PF's? I think this will be the one and only PF I own. Just can't get into things that stay static. Well, actually I could really go for an Bloody Lawgiver Ex.
PZ are you listening?
IM - "V" would be great, and I bet it's already on HT's plate. I think they're going to be hitting a lot of Sci-Fi classics in the next twelve months. Knowing me though I'd have them visit POTA for a real wake up call. Not only would they have to compete with the Mutants, but imagine what those Apes would do if they saw a human pull back it's head to reveal a cold blooded reptilian being.
- que Peter Gabriel's - "Shock the Monkey!"
Well the only old timer I haven't caught up with is the Great
Angel of Music, I can't wait to see what that clever gorilla has been up to. I sure miss seeing his awesome creations.
Have a good night all!
