About Me

No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

B is for the 'But is it Giant?' Blog - Space Aliens

I knew there was a reason why I (in my 50's) talked my late Mother into buying me a string/rope dragon for my Birthday a few years ago . . . it goes perfectly with the Giant Plastics Corp's bug-eyed space aliens!

I've added three articles covering the basics of the aliens on the Giant . . . or What? Blog, and as they are now in reverse order on that Blog, the links are below in the correct order, but here's that heavy-cavalry first:

Their (the aliens) colours don't quite match the dragon, however, the palate is similar, I think you'll agree, but look what I found . . .

. . . on clearance in TKMaxx! And they are already running a 'clearance' model, so this was a quid-to-go; three bog-standard metals and three coloured metallics which will definitely bring a patrol of aliens closer to the dragon sometime!

That dragon is really cool. Does it have wire in it for support or is it entirely string?

Hugh Walter said...

It's all wrapped round a wire armature, so there is movement in the body and legs, I don't play with it much as I think if a wire snapped it would all unravel! But it was perfect for a quick alien photo-shoot EY!
