Fortnite Victory Royale The Scientist

A little before Christmas I bought a bunch of "Clearance masquerading as a Christmas Sale from Entertainment Earth stuff. It was all stuff I had been "sort of looking at" for a while, but for super marked down, I decided why not. Slightly annoyingly, a lot of it ended up being slightly disappointing for one reason or another. Maybe I need to start listening to tat little, "you put this off for a reason" voice more. Anyway, this was one of them. In the last year, I've started playing a ton of Fortnite. Though I don't own a ton of…

Naughty or Nice Classic Santa Clause

Just in time for Christmas, Fresh Monkey Fiction has put out the first wave of their first wave of their holiday themed Naught or Nice Collection. I had the Cyborg Santa on order but cancelled it because I decided I didn't really need it, but I did keep the "Classic Santa". Classic Santa, as the name suggests, if generically regular. The whole line has several themed Santas, some straight recolors, some with different heads (like Cyborg Santa having a damaged robot head) as well as some Elves and Nutcrackers. I pretty much just stuck with the basic Santa. He's useful…

Disney Ultimates Robin Hood

So, wow. I feel like I am pretty good at picking out good parts of figures to keep my disappointment levels down, but this figure... I just can't. And I am not sure how this happened. One of the worst signs that a figure is a mess, is when it breaks, doing basic actions, almost right out of the package. Which happened here. I have gone through tons and tons of figures, and very few just break, right out of the package, with basic operation. Especially on a "Premium" level figure like this, the Disney Ultimates Robin Hood from Super…

Scott Pilgrim and Ramona Flowers

Scott Pilgrim vs the World is probably my favorite movie, though the books are much better. However, it is decidedly lacking in figure based merch. I was pretty excited when I came across these figures from Bottle Neck Gallery. The site seems to specialize in limited run sort of niche merchandise, a lot of which is prints. Like the prints, these figures came in some mass release colorways, and a few limited color versions. Despite ordering on day one, I missed out on the limited versions, though I was more interested in the limited Scott, who had the PLUMTREE logo…

My Collection

This was originally a thread on Twitter but I've moved it over to the blog. It's a sort of virtual tour around my basement space and collection. We moved into our current home in 2017 and I've been slowly making small updates and upgrades here and there. It is not perfect, it's still a sort of constant work in progress, but it's getting better and better over time. My biggest gripe is the shitty ceiling. I have not come up with a good/easyish solution to the ceiling yet. I've had a few ideas but they all will take quite a…
