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.

6 is for Dinosaur Figures

In my most recent visit to B&M I did buy a smaller set than the six-quid one looked at last night (which I'm probably going back for), and, with larger animals, about the same value for money at less than 50p each.
 

All quite nicely decorated except the Stegosaurus which gets a screaming fluorescent green paint-job like some leather-backed tree-frog, but the others were quite well-done I thought. The sea-monster is posed with the two from the Phidal set we looked at a while back now, and that's them, nothing exciting, but out there now.
