Pop! Vinyls - A New Obession

I've always been a fan of Funkos work(who isn't?). They've really started expanding with their Pop! Vinyl toys recently, resulting in quite a few I cannot live without. So, in my classic style, I hopped onto rotocasted & trampt to see what others were out there that I might need to acquire. I think at last count, my list was at 22. So I went shopping in Brisbane city recently & got my Pop! Vinyl collection started.

As you can see it was a successful shopping trip in many ways. New shoes, another Tank Girl graphic novel for my comic collection, new keyboard etc. Only two Pop! Vinyls, but it's a start(& to be honest I don't really have the space for more right now. I need new furniture). I considered buying Leatherface as well, but the only ones I found had damaged boxes(so typical). What I had really wanted, was Ace Ventura. I learned that Daily Planet had a couple in stock, but they were gone by the time I made it there, so I purchased Hannibal instead(got my Mars Attacks Alien from Mr. Toys Toyworld). Incredibly disappointing, but hopefully I'll acquire Ace on my next trip into the city.

Though honestly, one can't complain about Hannibal Lecter & Mars Attacks, a beautiful way to start what should be, a pretty decent little collection. Of course, I came home & learned there's at least 3 other variations of the Mars Attacks Alien, so I'll be seeking those down at some point as well. Collecting, it's a never ending hunt.

False Idols

I decided to finally begin this blog today, mostly due to a package I received this morning. For years I've been a fan of Kevin Smiths work & have sought to own some of the memorabilia he's had produced. I had a little spare cash recently, so took the opportunity to order two items I wanted badly.

One plus side to waiting so long to make this purchase, they've introduced female shirts, so I finally ordered myself a 'Got Christ?' tank top. For any fellow fans out there, you'll remember Jason Mewes in this tank top in Clerks II. Absolutely hilarious film, I'm eagerly awaiting the third installment of the series.

To complete my order, I finally got my a Mooby the Golden Calf plushie! Absolutely adorable & will be a great addition to my plushy collection!

I was sent a few little extras in my package as well, always a nice surprise. I particularly love the Ben Affleck badge. Such an amusing little item.

Of course, there is still one item I want(well, one item I REALLY want anyway), the Buddy Christ Bobblehead. Though I already own the Buddy Christ Dasboard Statue, which will tide me over for the time being.

A lovely way to begin my week. Hopefully I'll have another few deliveries worth blogging about soon. In the meantime, I've got many post planned about items I hope to order in the future. So except many more posts in the near future!
