Continuing to look at the stuff Brian B has sent to the blog in the last few weeks, these were all shot in a Target Store in Connecticut I believe, and mostly TV/Movie related licensed characters.
My Little Fawn?
There is, somewhere in Picasa, a multipart 'miniseries' which never got published (it will, one day!), which Brian contributed to, on the subject of those figurines you see in the windows of game-swap shops, which are interactive, electronic playing pieces, for/from several modern gaming systems, these seem to be similar, but are more music oriented I think? Can't knock
The Muppets!
Superstuff!
Also a bit big for my parameters, but I know from the Plaid Stallions crew, that there's a massive fan-base for GI Joe, Stateside, with the guys telling each other where certain figures have popped-up! Same with the 'new'
Mego's!
Even dog-food is promoting the new movie! It launched with much hype as the summer's big movie, and a sort of reset for the brand, but it's gone quiet now, so I don't know if it's good, OK, or a bit duff . . . Has anyone seen it?
The two boats are halfway between the rockets and the rubber-boats we saw yesterday from
B&M, and it looks like the two boats are wind-up workers.
Plastic flat, gravity floaters?
Thanks again to Mr Berke for going out and finding these.
Hi Hugh, in answer to your superman question, yes I have seen it and I have not enjoyed a Superman film as much as from the days of Christopher Reeve (high praise indeed) I know you are not much of a Superhero guy but if you haven't noticed this has more than ruffled a few feathers since apparently it is very...'Woke' (Thank heavens these folk have never seen Superman's earliest appearances where he has a passion for giving landlords, mine owners and corrupt businessmen a very hard time) not to mention he is an undocumented immigrant-the very idea....you know, I don't think they know what they are talking about :-)
ReplyDeleteHeehee! Yes, fascism has at it's core a level of stupidity which should be there after 100-years of compulsory education! Hope things are good with you, Steve!
