The "What You Got In The Mail That Isn't A Vinyl Toy" Thread

Wow! That is great!!! I'm jealous

 

@Shiverbones- Digging the Deathstar!! Totally had that as a kid. Played with it for countless hours. My favorite area was the trash dump with that plastic trash monster.

@spacemonkey66- Martin what a cool idea with that photo book. I've got tons of images on my computer and I think I'm going to do that myself.

 

Just don't send the photos in the 'Miscallaneous Art' folder . . . I think Apple may take issue with some of those images!

 

Man I thought I deleted those, wait no they're hidden in a sub folder within a folder

 

Upper Playground sale stuff just landed!

 

My lovely wife had this framed for Valentine's Day!

 

the coolest Ragon ever

 

Looks like it could be the most stoned Ragon ever as well.

 

Did you get that stuff from the London store, or the UK website? The J. Fish cushions are nice, my girlfriend picked a pair up a month or two ago

 

LOL ... this stuff is a very aquired taste. One tip is to spread it REALLY THIN.

I know you'll enjoy those Tim Tams though.

 

Wow - those cars are terrific! Die cast?

 

Judging by the wiring & motor going on within, I'd say they're RC cars. Whoever painted the 2nd one did an especially good job.

Of course! I completely forgot about those! I was picturing these as being 8"-12" big...

ooooooooooooh, modular

 

I got all the parts in the mail (chips, pcb, resistors, etc...), then made a patchable digital logic noise machine!

Oh that looks rad, sndbyte! How do you patch something like this, jumper wires?

 

No matter how good it looks in pics, lemme tell you it looks 1000x better in hand. So many metallic pigments on it. I framed mine the day I got it and put it over my bed.

 

Thanks. I just patch the chip inputs and outputs using cheap jumper wires. When patched up it looks like this below. It's a inexpensive way to learn digital logic and make a sort of modular sound maker.
