There was a new coral-reef, plant-animal,
polyp-based, life form, coral thing (plantimal?) which will be as useful as the
one we looked at the other day for alien backgrounds! This hasn't been there
the previous few visits, so others may turn-up in the future . . . there's
clearly a big box of this stuff 'out the back'! Or - is it supposed to be an
anemone?
I don't know if these are part of the reef
set, or a separate set of fishes, I have managed to miss a few, which they had
had the other week (buying a medieval set instead!), but they keep topping the
tray-up so they may yet reappear? Also these were in the carded blister-set MTC shots Brian Berke sent to the blog
almost a year ago.
The alien got his fingers caught in the
bagging-machine "Unexpected item in
the melty-crushing area!" and is clearly related to the capsule toys
we looked at ages ago from some Dutch import/wholesale outfit, so he too is
probably findable elsewhere as a gum-ball capsule toy? The funny thing is - if
you opened him carefully, with a hair dryer on hot, his hand might spring-back
into shape?
While the dog is the only one to turn up
and they've had several of the same pose, so does he belong with the 'Wild
Animal' set we looked at last time (mammals), or is he the (pun alert) tail-end (groan) of a dog set? I suspect the
latter as he's larger than even the elephant and hippo of the previous set?
