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.

M is for More Eraserbots!

We've seen these before, more than once I think, but I had a lucky visit to a charity shop ages ago, and in clearing this stuff, found the folder, so, here goes . . .

The rider is a part-work, of substantial poorer quality than the Osprey/Del Prado stuff, or even De Agostini or Altaya, but I can never remember the name of them, Alexander, Cassandra? Something like that! This was issue 1 and is quite common, I think we've seen it before too! One of Napoleon's generals, I think someone said last time?
 
But it's the erasers which are the highlight here, and as they are contemporary, someone must have seriously rejected them, for them to end up in a charity shop . . . who doesn't like eraserbots?
 
One of them is a new colour I think, but I can't remember which one (can't remember much tonight!), and I think there is a fourth, green-suit one still to find?
