Sideshow Scar...

[bearmodel]

Well.....

I was cleaning one of my sideshow pieces and I went forward without noticing that the fin for Jaws was sticking out and BUMP .....got myself a gash on my forehead. It bled for quite a while and but nothing serious. My wife freaked out a little but I was just happy I didn't damaged my Jaws Maquette....

yikes !. I remember when my darth maul pf landed on my foot. It did break two fingers off and the lightsaber snapped. My toes were actually bleeding but at the time I was more bothered about the statue and barely even noticed lol.

It was close to your eye !. Well.... now you know !. Don't mess with JAWS.

that's what happens when you play close to the water mate.

I had a similar problem with my Jason PF except I almost gouged my eye out with his damn machete.

My NECA 18 Robocop fell off the shelf and landed on my keyboard when I was on the computer once. Nothing broken, but I was just glad that it wasnt one of my expensive ones. I guess this just goes to show collecting is a dangerous game we play!

When I was sleeping, a 12 inch McF Pred fell on my face. That was a nice wake up call. Its funny, you feel it, but it doesnt hurt as much as you'd think. I was back to sleep with in a minute....then again, I coulda been knocked out.

Its funny how pain does'nt matter when a statue is involved.
I bet it would have hurt more if Jaw's fin broke off

I was about five. My Parents used to keep our big toys on our top shelf, (It was the 80's child safety not a big deal). My brother climbed up the shelf to get down our Millennium Falcon. He told me to stand underneath and catch, again I was 5. He slid it off the shelf and WHAM! Right on the skull. It put a huge gash on my head, it didn't bleed much but it hurt like hell. I went running to my Mom with him following yelling "I told you to catch!" He got a whippin and I got an ice pack. But the Falcon was fine, go figure.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water.

Now these are the kind of threads we need more off... always interesting to learn the perils of collecting

 

[customizerwannabe]

This thread is hilarious!

Hmmm...a new, and un-anticipated, aspect of collecting that I have not considered.

Medical expenses.

This hobby gets more and more expensive every day.

I wonder if we can get collectibles injuries clauses on our regular medical insurance.

If I had to go to the doctor, all I would say would be " I was attacked by a shark" and the medical bills would be covered. The story would be a different one if I had said " I was attacked by the Creature of the Black Lagoon"
