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.

J is for Just Play

Bit of a quickie, I bought this a while ago in B&M, although I'm sure it's findable elsewhere (Smyths, The Entertainer?), and while not specifically Halloween related, being The Nightmare Before Christmas, there is a horror aspect to it, and, well, that's it really!
 
Large vinyl figurines from new name here, Just Play, non-articulated solid lumps, I haven't opened it, so that's yer'lot, I'm not sure if this film has had a sequel, or a serial treatment on one of the streaming services, as the movie's years old now, well 30-years old is the packaging is anything to go by, but there seems to be a background of renewed interest in this Disney franchise (is it just the 30th anniversary?), and it's both Christmas-related and Halloweeny!
