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.

S is for Shelfies - B&M

Shot these the other day, there are some TKMaxx ones somewhere, but I've temporarily lost them? Hopefully they'll turn up, in the meantime these are all/both currently at B&M stores, the slayer of Wilkinsons/Wilco (the slayer of Woolworth's), now waiting to be slayed by the next undercutter!

A 'Big Box' set of dino'huntin' action figure fun, which I was never going to take off the shelf, but I will look out for the loose dinosaurs in the future, or at least this shot will help ID them at some point, however, I thought it was worth taking note of . . . 
 
. . . the mini-Chinasaur runner and camouflaged eggs, as they will tune-up in mixed lots needing identification! The set was in-store branded to B&M.
 
The latest tubs of animals are of a larger scale than we saw last time I was shelfie'ing in B&M, and no farm set which was odd, but maybe they sold-out first, there was room for three or four more tubs on the shelf?
 
Close-ups of the animals, again branded to B&M, the lion looks a bit like the AAA one we saw earlier today, but it's unmarked and smaller.
