Brian sent these in September last year,
just in time for the pirate to appear in ITLAPD! Indeed, because I took this
shot intending to do an H is for... post, prior to the
pirate day; I've tried to hide the pirate in plain sight! But then I thought "No I'll be showing all sorts of things
which are better in separate posts" and held the shot back!
We've since had the pirate, the Halloween
sets, the sea-life set and the larger rubber GI's, we nearly had the Zowies
(yellow & orange capsules), but at the eleventh hour they were pulled, and
while I've added the odd shot they may be a while now, as there's a lot in the
queue, although I have done preliminary work, so watch this space!
We also had the mini-dinos (in the eggs),
some of the Auburn Rubber types and you can see the gliders I couldn't fine the
other day! The motorcycle will appear in the next round-up of such machines and
the air force ground-crew are waiting for me to find the cream-coloured
originals to compare them with. While the large-scale spacemen reissues will
get their turn. I can't remember if I've shown the Chronoscope diver? If not;
he should have been in the round-up the other day, and must be in the next one!
In November Brian sent the sets he'd already
sent the image-of, in time for Halloween, which was really kind as I said to
him the pictures are more than enough, kindness wise, but he sent them anyway
and I got the follow-up posts done this year. However, I had meant to compare
the Zombie set more closely with the set from Peter Evans, and forgot to do so,
so I may well do that next year?
I had - as always - help unpacking!
Many thanks to Brian, it really is all
grist to the mill, and while the Blog tries to be pretty esoteric, Brian also manages
to find a wide variety of things to share with us.
