Thought it would be fun to start a thread so people could post what made 2013 another fun year for collecting. I didn't win a single lotto all year but was lucky enough to get my hands on a couple of things I've been after for years. So here it goes... 1.) Zollmen Monster Parade Set 2.) SVHC Bemon HP 3.) Uncut Exohead ManMachine from the PK run(Sorry no pic)
My Score of 2013 arrived in the mail just yesterday, and not to diminish any of the other awesome toys I picked up in 2013, but anyone who knows me knows how I feel about my skullwings.
My biggest scores of 2013 would have to go to the Obake Dog. Picked up my first two at SDCC, which also happened to be the first time I'd seen/held any in person, and fell in love with 'em. I'm at 23 Dogs now.
I was very excited to adopt this fellow! *not my photo (still can't find my camera ) Hoping to adopt his standard sized brother in 2014 ANNNNNND... a gigantic Thank you and Huge Huge Hugs to my dear Toy Angel for a wonderful family Thank you dear Toy Angel, you ARE the Bee's Knees in kindness and specialness! P.P.S. Congratulations Phantomfauna! Those Zollmen Parade Monsters are the bee's knees! I must add them to my list
More than my fair share of unbelievable toys showed up this year, but here's a smatter of my favorites: The single best mail day, and there were so many that blew my little mind, came as a total and spectacular surprise: Mr. Humphreys for the win! Grace's homemade Cracker Jack revisions make me smile every single day. Toys? What toys? Booska Enmago Maquette Ultraseven KingJoe Mummy dinos micros Buta U.S.Toys Marmit Grumble
I think i got this at the beginning of '13. A boardie approached me and really helped me out.. still absolutely love this dude to pieces! id do more things with him and take him moar places, but im scared of the pipe breaking. i got this guy not too long ago as well.. also really digging him. definitely worth the wait/trouble! i know, i know.. a birdnana is not as cool as your guys' stuffs.
I dunno, the birdnana looks ridiculous and awesome to me. A very unique and interesting toy. I am definitely drooling over Phantomfauna's Monster Parade set. Yowza.
awwww David, you are such a sweetie pie KittyKittyMeow666, I love your Birdnana! The chocolate coating with sprinkles really adds to the cuteness factor . I was too late to adopt one of those, it's a really nice toy!
Those Choco-Bananos are genius ! Reminds me of the good old days in Guatemala Can't help but toot my own horn and in the same breath extend the most gracious of thanks to the Madman of Koenji for making and giving me a toy all of my own ! I can not forget another notorious japan-based madman for gifting a much sought after monstrosity : And best of all, a collab between the worse madman i ever met and a wonderful amazon whose love and patience i barely deserve: Arthur Liam ! I made a few other excellent scores, but gifts and collaborative friendships and especially a bouncing baby boy take the cake for me in 2013.
Thanks guys (and gals..?). The choco banana was actually made to order by chima. I believe ive only had it in my possession for a month or two (too lazy to go check email dates).. If you really want one, you still might be able to score one if you email em! im so bad with names, no idea what these are called but im really diggin em!
Did you really round all of these up in 2013 alone? That's nuts dude!! Such a fucking sweet looking collection.
